No commission as a private policeman and/or private policewoman shall be valid for a greater period of time than one year from the date of issuance. The issuance of a private police commission shall not of itself constitute authority to carry firearms. The Director of Public Safety shall describe such uniform, badge and/or other distinguishing uniform marks for such private policeman or private policewoman as he or she may see fit in order to distinguish such private police officers from regular police officers of the Police Department of the City. Such private police must each secure from the Clerk of the Court of Common Pleas of Cuyahoga County a concealed weapons bond in the sum of one thousand dollars ($1,000) in order to carry arms while on duty as provided for herein and in accordance with Ohio R.C. 2923.12.
