(A) No applicant shall be entitled to a permit under this section unless and until he or she shall have filed and maintained on file with the town a certificate certifying that he or she or his or her company or business firm carries public liability and property damage insurance issued by an insurance carrier authorized to do business in the state insuring the applicant and the town and its agents against loss by reason of injuries to, or death of, persons, or damages to property arising out of or related to the event caused by the applicant, its agents, or its employees. Such insurance shall be primary and provide coverage for all liability assumed by the applicant under this section and shall be provided by any permittee in the amounts established by the town as required by its insurer.
(B) (1) Failure by the applicant to provide the town with a certificate of insurance in the amounts required by the town, and failure by the town to demand the filing by the permittee of such a certificate before such a permit is issued, shall not be deemed to waive the permittee's obligation to provide the insurance specified herein. Such insurance certificate shall remain in effect and be kept on file with the Town Engineer until the event has concluded. The insurance certificate shall provide that coverage cannot be cancelled or expire without providing 15-days written notice of such action to the town also noting the permit number.
(2) No evidence of liability insurance or surety bond shall be required as a condition precedent to the issuance of a permit to a Federal, state, county, or political subdivision.
