(a) 
No person, firm or corporation shall hereafter move any house or building within the limits of the city, where the same shall be moved in, through, upon or across any street or alley within the city, unless such person, firm or corporation shall, before moving such house or building, secure a permit from the city clerk of the city. The owner of such house or building shall pay for such permit. The fees for such permit shall be as provided for in the fee schedule found in the appendix of this code.
(b) 
In addition to the above fees for moving, a fee, as provided for in the appendix of this code, will be charged for each day in excess of one day that the building obstructs any street or alley.

(c) 
Before said permit is granted by the city clerk, the party applying therefor shall give a bond in the sum of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) with good and sufficient sureties to be approved by the city administrator, conditioning among other things that said party will save, identify and keep harmless the city, against all liabilities, judgments, costs and expenses which may in anyway accrue against said city in consequence of the granting of said permit, and upon the expiration of the time named in the permit, or sooner if the use of the streets and alleys is no longer necessary, he shall clear same of all obstruction.
(d) 
Further, the city clerk may refuse to issue a moving permit in a case where such work will necessitate the removal or cutting of any wires belonging to a public utility company, or to the city, until such time as the party making application for such permit shall have made satisfactory arrangements with the party or parties owning or controlling such wires, either by written agreement or by depositing with said company a sufficient amount of money to cover the coat of such work, that is, cutting and replacing the wires so moved or cut, to the satisfaction of the party or parties owning or controlling same.
