The permit to deposit, dump or dispose of dirt, soil or ground shall be valid for a period of one year from the date of issuance.

Conditions of violation are as follows:

In the event any permit holder allows any of the conditions set forth in subsections (a) through (g) hereof, to exist, after written notice to terminate such condition has been given, the City through its Inspector of Buildings, shall enter upon the premises and abate such conditions and charge the permit holder's guarantee fund. The balance, if any, shall then be refunded to such owner with the revocation of the permit.
