12.12.040: INSURANCE:
No permit shall be issued pursuant to this chapter unless the applicant presents with the application, or has on file with the City Engineer, a certificate of insurance from an insurance company qualified to write insurance contracts within the State of Idaho, certifying that the applicant has a policy of public liability insurance in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) single limit liability for personal injury, death and property damage; provided, however, if the work to be done under the permit is limited to excavation in an easement situated entirely on private property or is for construction of a concrete sidewalk, driveway or curb and gutter within a street right-of-way, but parallel with and adjacent to private property, the amount of such insurance shall be not less than one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000.00) single limit for personal injury, death and property damage. Coverage for underground hazard shall also be included. Permits involving work requiring the use of explosives or work that may endanger or cause the collapse of adjacent buildings or facilities shall also require the permittee to carry explosion and collapse hazard coverage with a minimum limit of five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000.00) single limit liability for personal injury, death, and property damage. Each policy, as required above, shall carry an endorsement naming the City of Chubbuck as an additional insured under said policy. Said insurance policy or policies shall contain a clause requiring that the City be given at least thirty (30) days' advance written notice in the event of expiration or anticipated cancellation. The permit shall be revoked at the time such insurance expires or is cancelled unless a certificate of comparable insurance is filed with the City Engineer prior to the time of cancellation or expiration of the original policy of insurance.
