(a) Every applicant for a permit to move any overload required by law to be accompanied by an inspector shall deposit in advance an amount to be determined by the Board to be adequate to cover the cost of inspection. Such deposit shall be determined by applying the charge established by the Board for each 4 hours, or fraction thereof, to the time deemed by the Board necessary for the performance of such service. In lieu of making individual deposits for each application, the applicant may make and maintain with the Board a general deposit in the sum of $500.00, which shall be used to guarantee payment of permit fees and inspection fees to be billed on a monthly charge account basis.
(b) At the completion of the moving of such overload, the Board should deduct from such individual deposit (or if a general deposit is maintained, the Board shall bill) the established charge for each 4 hours or fraction thereof of time required for such inspection, and shall refund to the depositor any difference between the amount deposited and the amount so deducted.
(c) Charges herein shall be determined and adopted in the same manner as provided in Section 12.37 I.1. of the Los Angeles Municipal Code for establishing fees.
(Added by Ord. No. 82,963, Eff. 7/7/40.)
(a) Whenever any overload is required by law to be accompanied by an inspector, and when a valid permit has been issued therefor, and when all fee and deposits have been paid to the Board, the Board shall assign an inspector to accompany the overload.
(b) It shall be the duty of the mover of such overload to notify the Board at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance of the time the move is to be started.
(Added by Ord. No. 82,963, Eff. 7/7/40.)

The provisions of Section 62.135 to 62.148, inclusive, shall apply to the United States, this State, counties, municipal corporations, school districts and to all other governmental bodies, agencies or instrumentalities; provided, however, that if any such government or governmental agency or instrumentality shall file with the Board an agreement in writing to pay all damages, costs or expenses which may be suffered or incurred by this City as a result of the movement of any overload by such government, agency or instrumentality, then it need not pay any permit fee or post any deposit or policy of property damage insurance otherwise required by any such provision. This exemption shall not apply to any private contractor engaged by any governmental body nor to any equipment or vehicle not operated by an employee of the governmental body moving the overload under the supervision and control of an officer thereof. (Amended by Ord. No. 123,538, Eff. 2/9/63.)
Whenever the Board shall determine that the interests of the national defense or public safety require that any overload be moved at a time or in a manner not permitted by the express provisions of the article, it may endorse upon the permit an express exemption from any such particular provisions, which exemption shall be effective as to any overload moved under that permit. The Board may attach such conditions to any such exception as it may deem reasonable to be required for public safety or the protection of property, including a requirement of fair indemnity on behalf of the City, members of the public, or both.
