a. The monument owner shall demonstrate that it is not feasible to place the monument on private property due to site constraints, poor topography, or other similar conditions.
b. The monument owner shall enter into an encroachment license agreement, or similar contractual agreement, with the town, which agreement shall contain provisions concerning insurance and indemnification so as to adequately protect the town from liability in the event of a claim or loss arising from the placement of the monument on such Town-owned property.
