A. No permit shall be issued pursuant to this chapter unless the applicant posts and maintains with the city manager a surety bond or policy of public liability insurance, approved by the city council and conditioned as provided in this section.

B. The permittee will indemnify and save harmless the city, its officers and employees from any and all loss, costs, damages, expenses or liability which may result from or arise out of the granting of the permit, or the installation or maintenance of the bench for which the permit is issued and that the permittee will pay any and all loss or damage that may be sustained by any person as a result of, or which may be caused by or arise out of such installation or maintenance.

C. The bond or policy of insurance shall be maintained in its original amount by the permittee at his expense at all times during the period for which the permit is in effect.

D. In the event that two or more permits are issued to one permittee, one such bond or policy of insurance may be furnished to cover two or more benches, and each bond or policy shall be of such type that its coverage shall be automatically restored immediately from and after the time of the reporting of any accident from which liability may thereafter accrue.
