                     (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)                     Insure that the one (1) story building addition serving as a porch authorized by Section 1 does not exceed the dimensions set forth in Section 1;

 

                     (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 City Solicitor; and
