(A) Prior to the granting of a parade or group demonstration permit, and as a condition precedent to the granting of either permit, the Chief of Police may require that the person named in the application as the one to be in charge of the parade or group demonstration shall give good bond to the town, with corporate surety and in an amount as the Chief may consider necessary, conditioned upon the full satisfaction of all claims, judgments and decrees which may result by reason of any negligent or unlawful act or omission of any person managing or participating in the parade or group demonstration and covered by the permit, and that he or she will save the town harmless therefrom; and with the further condition that he or she shall pay to the town all extra expenses incurred for clearing the town's streets, sidewalks and public places of litter resulting from the occurrence of the parade or group demonstration and for the cleansing and repair of public property defaced, soiled or damaged by paraders or demonstrators.
(B) Any applicant for a parade or group demonstration permit who feels aggrieved by the decision of the Chief of Police made pursuant to division (A) above may appeal from the decision to the Board of Commissioners; and the Board shall consider the appeal at its next meeting, at which the applicant may appear, with counsel, to present his or her case. After hearing the appeal, the Board shall waive or uphold the requirement for bond, and if the requirement for bond is upheld, the Board may amend the terms and conditions thereof as in its sound discretion shall be in the best interests of the town, and the decision of the Board shall be final.
(C) Bonds required by this section shall be approved as to form and surety by the Town Attorney.
