(A) Prior to the issuance of a permit to move a building, the owner or lessee of the property upon which the building is to be located shall file with the Codes Administrator a corporate surety bond, conditioned as follows: all of the work required to be done to complete the relocation, alteration and reconstruction of the building pursuant to the conditions of the permit shall be fully performed and completed within a reasonable time to be specified by the Codes Administrator in the permit. The bond shall be in principal amount equal to the estimated cost of the work proposed to be done, plus 10% hereof, and shall name the city as obligee, and shall be in a form approved by the City Attorney. In lieu of furnishing a corporate surety bond, the owner or lessee may post a cash deposit in the amount of the bond.
(B) An extension of time for the completion may be granted in writing by the Codes Administrator when, in his or her discretion, circumstances shall so justify, but no extension shall release any surety or other security.
