A permittee shall obtain and maintain in full force insurance in an amount
prescribed or approved by the town. The owner of telecommunications and/or
public utility facilities shall furnish a certificate of insurance at the time

employees, agents and represen-
tatives as additional insureds for all

notice, the permittee shall obtain and furnish to the person designated to
receive rights-of-way access permit applications replacement insurance coverage
meeting the terms of this section.
