A. Designation Of Route: In conjunction with the application for a permit under section 17-7-3 of this chapter, the applicant shall develop and submit a list of designated streets over which a building is proposed to be moved, which list must be approved, in writing, by the city manager, or designee, chief of police, the fire chief and the city forester. In making their determinations, said officials shall act to assure reasonable safety to persons and property in the city, including trees on public property, and to minimize congestion and traffic hazards on public streets. (1978 Code §8-64; amd. 1994 Code; Ord. 97-3765, 1-14-1997)
B. Time Of Moves: The time of all moves must be approved in advance by the building official and recorded on the permit. Generally, all building moves may not commence from private property and enter public property before nine o'clock (9:00) A.M. and must be completed and placed on the designated site off of public property or streets by four o'clock (4:00) P.M. of the same day; or may not commence before seven o'clock (7:00) P.M. and must be completed by six o'clock (6:00) A.M. the following day. The building official may make exceptions, for good cause, as to the time of move. (1978 Code §8-65; amd. 1994 Code)
C. Nighttime Moving; Lighting Requirements: Building moves during the nighttime, including one hour or sooner before sunrise and one hour or later before sunset, must be floodlighted such that the structure being moved is illuminated sufficiently to permit ready visibility of the top and side clearance of the structure and any obstruction that may be in the path of travel. The building official shall approve all lighting in advance of any move. (1978 Code §8-66)

At least forty eight (48) hours in advance of the time of the moving, the permittee shall post signs provided by the city, designating the area as a no parking area. The building official shall ensure that such signs are posted by the permittee in a timely manner. Such signs shall be removed by the city after the move is completed. If any vehicle is parked illegally in violation of the provisions of this subsection, the permittee shall be responsible for the expenses of towing the vehicle away but may recover said expenses from the violator. The permittee shall assume all risk of damage to any vehicle either towed away or parked in such route. (1978 Code §8-69)
