6-5-5: CITY SERVICES; DEPOSITS AND REIMBURSEMENTS:
   A.   Reimbursements: If the application requires or requests the use of any city services, the applicant shall reimburse the city for all charges applicable for any such services agreed to be provided by the city. Unless rates for city services have been established by ordinance of the city council, standardized rates for city services may be established by administrative order of the mayor, which rates may not exceed the reasonable costs of providing such service. Rates established by administrative order of the mayor shall be reviewed annually and subject to revision or updating, as needed, as a result of such review.
   B.   Cleanup Required: Immediately after the special event, the permit holder shall be responsible for cleaning the special event area of litter and debris, and disposing of all waste in accordance with city rules and regulations unless the city has agreed to provide such services. The permit holder shall also be responsible for immediately restoring property damaged, disturbed or defaced in connection with the special event to the same condition existing before the event.
   C.   Deposits:
      1.   Prior to the issuance of a special event permit, the applicant shall provide a deposit, in an amount equal to an estimate of:
         a.   All city services agreed to be provided by the city; and
         b.   The city's cost of cleaning the special event area of litter and debris and restoring any city property damaged in connection with the special event, if not adequately performed by the applicant.
      2.   Such deposit shall be in the form of a cash deposit, or a bond issued by surety acceptable to the city or an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a federally insured bank or savings institution licensed by the state of Utah, which bond or letter of credit shall be in a form approved by the city attorney. Such deposit may be reduced for good performance for three (3) consecutive years at previous special events as evidenced by prior events or other documentation and no outstanding amount owed to the city.
   D.   Invoice: Within a reasonable time after the conclusion of the event, the director shall mail or deliver to the permit holder an invoice for the cost of city services provided by the city, and any costs incurred by the city in restoring the site. If the amount exceeds any cash deposit, the permit holder shall pay the unpaid portion of the invoice amount within thirty (30) days of the date that the invoice was mailed or delivered. If the amount is less than any cash deposit, the director shall return the excess to the permit holder within thirty (30) days.
   E.   Availability: Provision of city services is based on availability. If such services are not available from the city, it shall be the applicant's responsibility to procure the services, either desired by the applicant or determined to be necessary by the director, at the sole expense of the applicant.
