(A) No person, firm, company, or corporation shall move a building or structure of any kind over, through or across any street, alley, or other public way of the city unless he shall first procure and have issued to him a permit under the provisions of this section.
(B) Any person, firm, company, or corporation desiring to use temporarily the streets, alleys, or public ways for the purpose of moving a building or other structure shall make application to the City Fire Marshal for such privilege, which application shall state the name and residence of the applicant, the type and size of the structure to be moved, the route and distance which the same shall be moved, and the estimated period of time required for moving the building or structure. Thereupon, if in the judgement of the City Fire Marshal the use of the streets, alleys, or public ways for such purpose shall not materially interfere with the rights of the traveling public or create a traffic hazard of any kind, the permit may be issued to the applicant when he has complied with the other provisions of this section.
(C) Any person, firm, company, or corporation applying for a period to use the streets, alleys, and other public ways of the city for the purpose of moving buildings or other structures thereon shall obtain and file with the City Fire Marshal a liability policy of insurance insuring the City of Murray and the general public against damages resulting from any negligence in connection with the use of the streets, alleys, and other public ways for the purpose of moving buildings or other structures thereon, or as a result of the negligence of the city, its officers, agents or employees. Said policy shall protect the city against any liability which may be imposed by law on it by reason of the use of the streets, alleys, or other public ways for that purpose. The liability policy shall be in the sum of not less than $500,000 (five hundred thousand dollars) for the injury or death of any one (1) person and not less than $1,000,000 (one million dollars) for the injury or death of all persons affected by any one (1) accident and not less than $300,000 (three hundred thousand dollars) for one (1) benefit of any person who may suffer property damage in any one accident resulting from the use of streets, alleys, and other public ways for the purpose of moving buildings or other structures thereon. The policy of insurance shall, as to the form thereof and the solvency of the insurance company, be subject to the approval of the City Fire Marshal. Said policy shall be delivered to the City Fire Marshal before a permit is issued and said policy shall be kept in full force and effect until the Street Superintendent has furnished to the City Fire Marshal a certification in writing that the moving work has been competed. The City Marshal is authorized and empowered to surrender for cancellation any liability policy after the City Fire Marshal has received from the Street Superintendent a written certification that the moving of the building or other structure for which the permit is granted has been completed.
