7-1-2: CASH DEPOSIT OR PERFORMANCE BOND:
Upon receipt of an application for a permit, the county road supervisor or his designee shall examine into the work or activity which the applicant desires to perform and will determine whether or not any damage will likely be done to the road or right of way by the work or activity. If he determines that such damage might occur, he will fix an amount of cost that in his opinion the county would incur in repairing the damage and restoring the premises to the condition that it was prior to the work or activity if not done by the holder of the permit and will require, as a prerequisite to the issuance of the permit, that the applicant furnish a deposit in cash or performance bond in the amount so fixed. All such cash and bonds will be deposited by the county road supervisor or his designee with the county clerk for safekeeping and will not be released to the permit holder until the county road supervisor or his designee has certified that the road and/or right of way has been restored to the condition that it was prior to the work or activity by the permit holder. If the road or right of way is not so restored by the permit holder and the county is required to incur cost to complete such restoration, then the county may resort to such cash deposit or bond, upon notice to the permit holder and the bond surety and hearing, to reimburse the county for cost so incurred by the county.
