No person shall move any unit over, upon, along, or across any
public street, alley or sidewalk without a written permit therefor
from the director of public works. Such permit may be referred to
as a "house mover's" permit.
(Prior code § 21-73)
No house mover's permit authorized by this article shall be
granted by the director of public works until:
A. The
required fees under Article IV of this chapter have been paid;
B. The
required deposits under Article IV of this chapter have been made;
C. The
applicant for such permit furnishes evidence that the applicant has
been issued a valid and subsisting relocation permit for the particular
unit when such permit is required by the provisions of this chapter.
(Prior code § 21-74)
Each application for a house mover's permit must show:
A. The
size of each unit when loaded on its means of conveyance;
B. The
street location or other identifying description from and to which
each unit is proposed to be moved, and the route over, along, across
and upon which each unit is to be moved;
C. The
number of units to be moved.
(Prior code § 21-75)
The director of public works upon receipt of an application
for a house mover's permit shall transmit a copy of the application
to the police department, fire department, street and field services
administrator, permit services administrator, each public utility
involved, and all departments or parties notified shall within four
days after notice submit an objection or assent to any of the work
described in the application for a permit, and shall also submit to
the director of public works a statement of the time required to rearrange
its plants and equipment and an estimate of the cost of rearranging,
protecting and restoring equipment, including any necessary protective
flagging. Each house mover shall comply with the deposit provision
in Article IV of this chapter.
(Prior code § 21-76)
At the expiration of the four-day period referred to in Section
15.04.240, or upon the receipt of the written assent of all parties so requested, the director of public works shall proceed to issue such permit if the applicant has otherwise complied with this chapter.
(Prior code § 21-77)
Every permit required by this chapter shall be void unless the
move shall be completed within the time specified in such permit;
provided, however, that the director of public works may extend such
time when the moving of any unit is rendered impracticable by reason
of inclemency of the weather, strikes or other causes not within control
of the house mover.
(Prior code § 21-78)
