A house moving permit shall be granted only after the applicant accepts and complies with the following terms and conditions:
(a) The applicant shall not allow the building or other structure being moved to remain in or in any manner obstruct the public streets other than between hours established by the Director of Public Safety on an individual case basis.
(b) The applicant shall deposit an amount established in Section 1335.12, in cash, with the Director of Finance prior to receiving the permit, the purpose of which deposit shall be to reimburse the City for the costs to the City of trimming, moving, removing or replanting trees and/or shrubs; of moving, removing or displacing any pole or other structure; of supporting any wires, cables or other equipment upon poles or structures belonging to the City; and of paying overtime compensation to any police officer whom the Chief of Police determines is necessary in order to direct traffic when the building is being moved. The final costs shall be determined by the Director of Buildings.
(c) The applicant shall have procured, in writing, the permission of the owner of any trees, shrubs, fences, poles, wires, cables or other physical structures which must be moved, removed or displaced in order to allow passage of the building or other structure. A permit to move the building or other structure will not be issued until such time as such written statements are filed with the Director of Finance.
(d) Every person moving a building in the City shall file with the Director a liability insurance policy issued by a solvent corporation authorized to do business in the State, which policy shall conform, in all respects, to the requirements of this subsection. In lieu of such insurance policy, a certificate of insurance issued by an insurance corporation may be filed. The certificate shall show that a policy meeting the requirements of this subsection has been issued and shall specify the expiration date of the policy. The liability policy required under this subsection shall insure the person moving a building against loss from liability imposed by law for injury or death to any person, and for injury to the property of any person, including the City, that occurs while the mover of a building is so engaged upon the streets of the City. The policy shall insure the mover in the following amounts, exclusive of interests and costs:
(1) For injury to or death of any one person, five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000);
(2) For injuries to or deaths of more than one person, or for any combination of injuries and deaths of more than one person, arising from any single accident, one million dollars ($1,000,000); and
(3) For damage to the property of any person, including the City, arising from any single accident, one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000).
