If, in the city engineer’s opinion, the nature of the work regulated by this ordinance is such that it might create a hazard to human life or adjoining property or property at a higher or lower level, a street or street improvement, or any other public property, the city engineer may, before issuing the permit, require that the permit applicant file a certificate showing that the applicant is insured against claims for damages for personal injury as well as claims for property damage, including damage to the City by deposit or washing of material onto City streets or other public improvements, that may arise from the performance of the work, whether the performance is by the applicant, the applicant’s subcontractor or any person directly or indirectly employed by the applicant. The amount of the insurance shall be prescribed by the city engineer in accordance with the nature of the risks involved. The insurance shall include protection against liability arising from completed operations. The insurance shall be written by a company that is approved by the City and shall indemnify and hold harmless the City, its officers, agents and employees against loss or liability that may arise during the performance of, or that may result from, any work required to be done. [BC 9.05.075, amended by Ordinance No. 4249, 4/7/03]
