No dwelling, house, barn, outbuilding or other like structures
shall be moved upon any street, highway or public place within the
Village unless a written permit shall first be obtained for such purpose
from the Village Clerk, as hereinafter provided. It shall be unlawful
to move the same without such permit or at any time or in any manner
except as prescribed in such permit.
A permit for such purpose shall be issued by the Village Clerk
only upon the Village Building Inspector approving the same and shall
provide the time, manner and streets through which the same shall
be moved and shall contain any other conditions deemed necessary to
properly safeguard the public safety or welfare.
Every application for a permit hereunder shall be accompanied
by a fee of $50 and by a certificate of insurance, in a form approved
by the Village Attorney and issued by an insurance company authorized
to do business in this state, running to the Village, guaranteeing
that the applicant has provided public liability coverage for bodily
injury in the amount of not less than $1,000,000/$2,000,000 and for
property damage in the amount of not less than $100,000/$300,000 to
save the Village harmless from all claims, actions and proceedings
brought by any person for personal injury, property damage or injury
to property resulting from or occasioned by any default by the Village,
its employees or agents, or by the person to whom the permit is issued
or anyone acting thereunder. The policy shall also protect the Village
in the sum of $100,000 against any damage caused to any street or
other public property by reason of such house-moving.
If, in the opinion of the Building Inspector, the moving of
the structure seems likely to cause injury to property, trees, electric
wires or otherwise cause hardship or inconvenience, or seems to be
not conducive to public safety or welfare, such permit may be refused,
the deposit fees returned and the bonds canceled.
Any person convicted of a violation of this chapter shall be
fined not more than $250 or be imprisoned for a term of not more than
30 days, or both, such penalty to be in addition to any other remedy
permitted by this chapter and by statute and not exclusive thereof.
