in effectSec. 333.04. - Application; insurance or bond.
The following provisions shall apply to the application and insurance or bonding requirements for solid fuel dealers:
(1) The application shall state the location of all fuel storage yards of the applicant.
(2) By reason of the fact that licensees hereunder, in addition to using the public streets and alleys, are required, from time to time, to drive upon private property in making deliveries, therefore, each licensee hereunder shall be insured with an insurance company, authorized to do business in the State of Minnesota, against loss in the sum of at least five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) for each delivery vehicle used in his business, against liability imposed by law on account of damage to or destruction of property by reason of the ownership or operation of any such fuel delivery vehicle, or in lieu of such insurance each licensee hereunder may furnish and file with the inspector a surety bond running to the City of Saint Paul in the penal sum of at least five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) approved as to form by the city attorney, conditioned that said licensee shall pay any and all final judgments rendered against said licensee on account of any such damage to private or public property occasioned during the period of the license. The policy or policies evidencing such insurance, or the surety bond required hereby, shall in each case be filed by the licensee with the inspector.
(3) Any person, firm or corporation who has for a period of three (3) years been a licensed fuel dealer, and who has never violated any of the provisions of this or any prior ordinance covering a similar subject, and who is unable to obtain insurance or a bond as provided by this section, may obtain a license hereunder upon furnishing satisfactory proof of his inability to obtain such insurance or bond. A license issued under this chapter shall be construed to provide that if the licensee or any other person, firm or corporation who delivers coal for said license shall fail to pay a judgment for any damage which would have been covered by such insurance or bond within thirty (30) days after such judgment is entered, in that event, such license would become subject to revocation by the council.
