(a) Application Fee. A fee as set forth in the municipal fee schedule shall be paid on filing the application for a moving or relocation permit, which fee shall be in addition to any other fee required under the provisions of the building code. The fee shall be levied for moving or relocation of a building to a site or destination within the city and for moving a building located within the city to a site or destination outside the city.
(b) Deposit. Before the issuance of a permit under this chapter, the applicant shall deposit with the building official the minimum sum of five hundred dollars plus a sum to be determined by the building official to be sufficient to pay the cost of service rendered by city employees in protecting, trimming or cutting trees along the route of moving, in safeguarding, removing and restoring wires, poles or equipment of the department of utilities of the city, in rendering inspection services necessary to protect the interest of the city, and in putting the original building site in a safe and sanitary condition.
(c) Moving Bond in Lieu of Deposit. In lieu of a cash deposit, the applicant may file in the office of the building official a faithful performance bond commonly designated a "moving bond," guaranteeing completion of the moving work within the time specified in the permit, in an amount to be determined by the building official as provided in subsection (b). Said bond shall also guarantee the costs of repair for damaged curbs, gutters, sidewalks, driveways, pavement, signs, trees, poles and light and power facilities caused by said moving or the cost of moving a building from a public street or alley as specified in this chapter. Such bond shall also guarantee the costs of repair for damage done to private property by said moving.
