Before exercising any rights or privileges under this Ordinance, Marilyn T. Stroud must first obtain all required permits, licenses and approvals from all appropriate departments, boards, agencies, or commissions. No such department, board, agency or commission shall be required to issue any such permit, license or approval solely because this Ordinance has been enacted, it being the express intent of this Ordinance not to supersede any other provision of law governing the issuance of such permits, licenses, or approvals. In addition, Marilyn T. Stroud shall enter into an agreement ("Agreement") with the appropriate City department(s), in a form satisfactory to the Law Department, which shall: (a) furnish the City with a bond with corporate surety in the amount required by the Streets Commissioner and in a form satisfactory to the Law Department to insure compliance with all of the terms and conditions of this Ordinance and the aforementioned Agreement; (b) protect, indemnify and save harmless the City from all suits or claims for damages which may arise directly or indirectly as a result of the open-air sidewalk café; (c) comply with the provisions of The Philadelphia Code thereby securing all required permits, licenses and approvals from all appropriate departments, boards, agencies or commissions, as may be required; (d) agree in writing that when, at the determination of the City of Philadelphia, the open-air sidewalk café necessitates relocation and/or removal of any underground structure, either publicly or privately owned, Marilyn T. Stroud will absorb all costs and expenses for the performance of such work at no cost to the City; (e) carry public liability and property damage insurance co-naming the City of Philadelphia as an insured party in such amounts as shall be satisfactory to the Law Department; and (f) remove the open-air sidewalk café within thirty (30) days upon service of lawful written notice from the Streets Department.

The permission granted to Marilyn T. Stroud to maintain and operate an open-air sidewalk café on the northeast corner of S. 16th Street and Dickinson Street shall expire without any further action by the City of Philadelphia if Marilyn T.
