(f)                     Carry public liability and property damage insurance, naming the City of Philadelphia as an insured party, in such amounts as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the City Solicitor.

 

SECTION 3. The City Solicitor shall include in the Agreement such other terms and provisions as shall be deemed necessary to protect the interest of the City of Philadelphia.

 

SECTION 4. The permission granted to construct, use and maintain an electrical conduit and service line and a telecommunications conduit and telephone service line shall expire without any further action by the City of Philadelphia if Krishna Krupa, LLC has not entered into the Agreement and satisfied all requirements of the Agreement and the requirements that are listed in Section 2 of this Ordinance within one (1) year after this Ordinance becomes law.
