(A) Restoration plan. The applicant shall submit a restoration plan which generally provides for the restoration of the quarry or pit area to a condition of practical usefulness and reasonable physical attractiveness. The plan shall include the following:
(1) A map showing proposed contours at no less than five-foot contour intervals after filling and restoration;
(2) The type of fill, depth of top soil, and plantings; and
(3) A time table for the completion of the various stages of restoration, including a detailed description of the restoration to be completed during the license year. In the final year of operation, the plan shall include provision for the removal of all equipment, temporary structures, stockpiles, and rubble heaps.
(B) Financial guarantee. Prior to the issuance of a permit, the applicant shall provide a bond or other financial guarantee in an amount approved by the Village Board and in a form approved by the Village Attorney for the faithful performance of the restoration plan. In the event of the applicant’s failure to comply with the restoration plan or the restoration requirements of this section, the financial guarantee shall be deemed forfeited for the purpose of enabling the village to perform the restoration. The Village Board shall annually review the restoration performed in the preceding license year for the purpose of establishing the amount of the bond or other financial guarantee required for the current license year.
