With each application for a license, the applicant shall submit a certified letter from a reputable insurance company stating that, in the event that the license is issued, a liability insurance policy shall be issued to adequately protect the life, limb and property of all persons against any and all injuries which might result from the specific event being sponsored. If the license is granted, a liability policy, in such form as may be approved by the Borough Attorney, shall be posted with the Clerk prior to the actual commencement of the event.
