(A) In every case where a building permit is required, such permit shall provide that all rubbish, waste materials and substances, debris and litter shall be disposed of or removed from the premises upon the substantial completion of such work. SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION, for the purpose of this section, is defined to mean 90% of the actual work to be done and performed as contemplated by the valuation set forth in the building permit.
(B) To secure compliance herewith, such applicant for a building permit shall post with the Building Official a cash bond in the form of a cashier or certified check payable to the city in an amount not greater than 10% of the amount designated on the building permit submitted to the Building Inspector relative to the work to be performed thereunder, the amount assessed hereunder to be determined by the reasonable discretion of the Building Inspector.
(C) After the work has been completed and all rubbish, waste materials and substances, debris and other litter have been satisfactorily disposed of or removed from the premises, the certified or cashier check shall be returned to the holder of the permit; however, should the holder of the permit fail to comply with the provisions hereof and fail to remove all rubbish, waste materials and substances, debris and other litter so as to leave the premises clear thereof, then the Mayor or City Recorder may, upon recommendation of the Building Inspector, order such bond forfeited and such certified or cashier check cashed by the City Recorder, and shall direct and order that such premises be cleared of any rubbish, waste materials and substances, debris or other litter and the cost thereof to be paid out of such fund so provided. After deducting the cost of any removal and other expenses related thereto to the city, the remainder of any of the money shall be returned to the holder of the permit.
