The city engineer may make such changes in any application for a building moving permit as in his opinion are necessary for the protection of the highways along or over which it is proposed to move the building or structure or to prevent undue interference with traffic or to avoid jeopardizing the safety of any persons using such highways.

(Code 1971, § 12.20.070)

If an applicant for a building moving permit complies in all respects with this article and with all other applicable provisions of this Code, the city engineer shall issue a permit to do the moving requested in the application as such application may be changed, if at all, by the city engineer.

(Code 1971, § 12.20.100)

The building moving contractor shall affix and maintain at all times while a building or structure is on the highway, in a conspicuous place on the building or structure to be moved, the permit for such moving.

If a building or structure is moved in more than one section and more than one of such sections is moved at the same time, the moving contractor shall affix and maintain at all times while they are on the highway, in conspicuous places on each section on which the original permit for moving the building or structure is not affixed, true copies of such permit. Such true copies shall be issued by the city engineer upon payment to him by the applicant of a fee set by resolution of the city council.

(Code 1971, § 12.20.120)

Each permit issued under this division shall become null and void upon the expiration of the time specified in the application, unless the city engineer extends the time, which he may do if, in his opinion, the moving of the building or structure or any portion thereof is impracticable because of inclement weather, acts of God, strikes or other causes not within the control of the permittee.
