At the time such application for a license is made, and use of Municipal grounds or public streets or thoroughfares is contemplated, the applicant shall deposit with the Municipal Clerk a cash bond of one hundred dollars ($100.00) in the case of carnivals or shows during which no animals perform or are exhibited, and two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00) with respect to circuses or similar shows during which animals perform or are exhibited or which, in the opinion of the Mayor, involve an unusual burden or likelihood of creating problems of public safety, public health, cleanliness or destruction of property. In any event the deposit shall be conditioned upon the restoration and cleaning up of the grounds used and the proper conducting and management of the shows in the best public interest in a manner found satisfactory by the Mayor. In the event the grounds shall be restored and cleaned up properly and promptly following the exhibition, and all other conditions imposed with respect to the deposit have been observed, the deposit shall be returned. Otherwise, the deposit, or that part thereof determined by the Mayor to provide adequate compensation for the nonperformance of the conditions upon which the deposit was made, shall be forfeited to the City.
