A bond with a surety on the approved list of the United States Treasury Department shall be given by a mover of houses or other buildings, as principal, to assure the City, property owners whose property may be affected, excluding utilities, and the person whose structure is being moved, that such moving will be accomplished without damage to such parties, and in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Residential Building Code of Ohio for One, Two and Three Family Dwellings or the Ohio Building Code. The amount of such bond shall be five thousand dollars ($5,000). If the structure being moved is more than 800 square feet at its base, the bond shall be doubled. If an intersection of two roads, two highways or a road and a highway, is being crossed, the bond shall be double the base amount. For each five thousand dollars ($5,000) of valuation over twenty thousand dollars ($20,000), including the value of the appropriate lot of land zoned for and upon which such structure is permitted, the bond shall be increased one thousand dollars ($1,000), which increase shall constitute part of the base amount. A permit from affected utilities shall also be exhibited.
