(A) Unless suspended or revoked, permits issued pursuant to this chapter have a term of one year. Permits are automatically renewed on the anniversary date of being issued for an additional one year term so long as all material information regarding the permittee remains unchanged. Should a permit expire, the permittee must comply with this chapter to obtain a new permit.
(B) Permittees must enter into a hold harmless agreement, in a form approved by the City Attorney, with the city which will, in part, indemnify city, its officers, employees, and agents, from any liability arising from a permit issued pursuant to this chapter.
(C) Insurance requirements. Permittees must obtain liability insurance from an insurance company licensed to do business in the state and having a financial rating in Best's Insurance Guide of not less than "A VII." Such insurance will provide "occurrence" coverage against liabilities for death, personal injury or property damage arising out of or in any way connected with such event. For outdoor dining, such insurance must be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000. Insurance will name the city and the city's elected and appointed officials, officers, and employees as additional insureds under the coverage afforded. In addition, such insurance will be primary and noncontributing with respect to any other insurance available to the city and will include a severability of interest (cross-liability) clause. If alcoholic beverages are sold or served during café entertainment, the policy must also include an endorsement for liquor liability in an amount not less than $1,000,000.
(D) Certificates of insurance. A copy of the policy or a certificate of insurance along with all necessary endorsements, in a form approved by the city's risk manager, must be filed with the Director not less than five business days, except as otherwise provided in this chapter, before the date of the event unless the Director for good cause waives the filing deadline.
(E) Permittees must attempt to notify all affected persons, by any reasonable means, regarding the nature, date, and time of café entertainment as specified by the Director. Failure of the permittee to give such notice will not invalidate a permit.
