(a) At the time of submission of the written application, the applicant shall deposit with the Village an amount of money as determined by the Building Inspector, but not less than three hundred dollars ($300.00), to cover the cost and expense of such investigation as may be necessary to fully review such application and any accompanying maps, and shall report upon the same to the Planning and Zoning Commission. The cost and expense of such investigation shall be deducted from such deposit. If such expenditures exceed the deposit, such excess shall be paid to the Village by the applicant upon request of the Building Inspector. If such deposit exceeds such expenditures, the balance shall be refunded to the applicant.
(b) If the application is granted, the applicant shall reimburse the Village for any expenses incurred in connection with the Village supervision or inspection of the operations as outlined in the permit. Statements for said expenses shall be submitted to the permit holder by the Finance Director and shall be subject to payment within thirty days of receipt. Failure to pay such statements shall constitute grounds for the revocation of the permit.
