Prior to obtaining such permit, the person shall furnish the Village with the following:
(a) A plan and general specifications showing the proposed location, extent and nature of the work contemplated.
(b) Indemnity insurance saving the Village harmless from any damage to persons or property arising from such work, and naming the Village as additional insured in an amount approved by the Law Director.
(c) A bond guaranteeing that the work shall be done to the full satisfaction of the Village represented by the Chief Administrative Officer or his agent, or the Village Engineer, and that the area affected by the work shall be restored to equal or better than its original condition and such condition maintained, at the cost of the permit holder, for a period of one year after the completion of the work, provided, however, that such bond may be released at an earlier period if, in the opinion of the Chief Administrative Officer, such release is warranted. The amount of such bond shall be commensurate with the extent of the work and shall be determined by the Chief Administrative Officer or his agent, but in no case shall the amount of such bond be less than five hundred dollars ($500.00) for any one project.
(d) Parties who, because of their operations, find it necessary to enter Village streets, alleys or public grounds for construction purposes for recurring maintenance shall be permitted to furnish a blanket bond with the same conditions as set forth above. The amount of such bond shall be determined by the Chief Administrative Officer and the Village Engineer, but in no event shall it be less than five thousand dollars ($5,000) provided that any project of an extensive nature shall be covered by a specific bond, subject to the discretion and approval of the Chief Administrative Officer as to amount and conditions.
(e) The applicant shall cause a record, by video taping, of the area to be excavated, to be provided prior to excavation depicting landscaping, landscape features, sidewalks, curbing, driveways, aprons, fences, walls or drainage ways. Such pre-excavation record shall be recorded on video taping, or other photo recording with the approval of the Chief Administrative Officer, and submitted to the Chief Administrative Officer.
(1) In the event the Chief Administrative Officer deems the project of a minor nature, the prerecording above can be waived or in the alternative, a substitute record of conditions prior to excavation may be submitted by the applicant.
(2) In the event the applicant fails to make such record of the conditions prior to construction, the Chief Administrative Officer is directed to cause such record to be made and the cost for such record to be assessed to the applicant in addition to any bonds or fees otherwise provided in these Codified Ordinances.
