Before any excavation permit is effective, the person requesting it shall file with the city a bond to cover the costs of repairing the excavation site. The bond shall be in such a sum as the Street Commissioner determines sufficient to cover such repairs, but in no case shall such a bond be less than rates based on current state-approved amounts and/or as set by City Council from time to time. Such bond shall either be a surety bond with sureties satisfactory to the Mayor or his or her delegate or a cash bond; in any event, it shall be conditioned on the permittee complying with all of the conditions imposed in the excavation permits, and all rules and other restrictions that may be imposed by the Street Commissioner and further conditioned upon such person restoring the street, alley, sidewalk, or other public place to its original conditions for a period of at least six months after the completion of such work.
