On application of any person to whom there has been issued a permit to trim, prune or remove a tree from a City right-of-way, the Director may trim, prune or remove such tree described in such permit provided the cost thereof is paid by the permittee and provided there shall first be deposited with the Director a sum determined to be the estimated cost of such work. Following completion of the work, the Director shall determine the actual cost of the work and transfer that portion of the deposit to the appropriate City fund and return the balance to the depositor. Should the original deposit be insufficient to cover the actual cost of the work, the permittee shall be liable to the City for the unpaid balance and shall promptly pay such amount to the City upon demand of the Director.
