Chapter 1 Peddlers, Solicitors, Etc.
9-112 : Bond and insurance.
Every permittee shall file with the recorder a surety bond to the city in the amount of ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00). The bond shall be conditioned that the permittee shall comply fully with all the provisions of the ordinances of the city and the statutes and regulations of the state that regulate peddlers, canvassers, solicitors, transient merchants, temporary merchants, seasonal merchants, itinerant merchants, or itinerant vendors, as the case may be, and shall guarantee to any and all citizens of the city that all money paid as a down payment will be accounted for and applied according to the representations of the permittee, and further guaranteeing to any citizen of the city doing business with said permittee that the property purchased will be delivered according to the representations of the permittee. Action on such bond may be brought by any person aggrieved and for whose benefit, among other, the bond is given. The surety may be relieved without costs of all further liability by paying, pursuant to order of the court, the face amount of the bond to the clerk of the court in which the suit is commenced. If the permittee's business or trade necessitates or requires said permittee to drive a motor vehicle within the corporate limits of the city, the permittee shall provide the recorder with the necessary proof of insurance, required by Tennessee Code Annotated § 55-12-101, et seq.
All peddlers, canvassers, solicitors, transient merchants, temporary merchants or seasonal merchants that sell or distribute "fireworks" as defined by Tennessee Code Annotated, § 68-104-101, et seq. shall provide the recorder with a valid certificate of liability insurance evidencing insurance coverage for their business or trade activities. This certificate of liability insurance shall be in an amount of no less than one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000.00). (Ord. #215-11, June 2015, modified)
