                     (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 garage addition 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

 

                     (f)                     Remove the one (1) story garage addition authorized by Section 1 from the public right-of-way within sixty (60) days upon lawful service of notice from the City of Philadelphia.

SECTION 4.                     The permission granted to Kate Osuala to construct a one (1) story garage addition on and over the south footway of Thomas street adjacent to the property 1301 South Fifty-seventh street shall expire without any further action by the City of Philadelphia if Kate Osuala has not entered into the Agreement and satisfied all requirements of the Agreement that are listed in Section 2 within one (1) year after this Ordinance becomes law.
