A cash bond or other surety, in the amount of at least one thousand dollars, may be submitted instead of a certificate of insurance if the Director of Public Works approves. After the completion of the movement of the building or other oversized object, the City shall inspect the route taken in the moving of the building or object and shall ascertain the damage, if any, to all streets, trees, buildings, overhanging wires and any and all property of any nature whatsoever with the City and shall present to the permittee a claim in the amount necessary to repair such damage, if any. Thereupon, the permittee shall cause such claim to be paid.
(Prior code § 20.63)
Before the City Manager issues any permit for the moving of any building over, along or across any street or other public place in the City, he or she shall first require the owner of the building to furnish him or her with a certificate from the City Engineer certifying that the building is of sufficiently sound construction and condition that the same may be moved without endangering persons or property. Before issuing such a certificate, the City Engineer may make such physical and mechanical inspection of the building as he or she deems necessary to ascertain the physical condition thereof.
(Prior code § 20.64)
No building shall be moved into a residential district as the same is defined by the zoning ordinance of the City, unless the same complies with all requirements of the building, plumbing and electrical codes for new construction in such district.
(Prior code § 20.65)
If the building to be moved does not comply with the requirements of the building, plumbing and electrical codes for new construction, it may nevertheless be moved; provided, that the owner thereof shall file with the building inspector plans and specifications and a detailed breakdown of costs for remodeling the building to conform to the requirements of such codes and at the same time files with the City Clerk a good and sufficient surety bond conditioned upon the completion of the remodeling in accordance with such plans and specifications, which bond shall be not less than one hundred twenty percent of the cost of such remodeling as shown by the detailed cost breakdown.
