(A) If construction has not been completed and approved by the village consulting engineer before the final plat is submitted to the Village Board, security in the amount equal to 125% of the estimated construction costs (including, but not limited to, grading, drainage, roadway, sidewalk, sewer, waterline and other improvements which are to be dedicated to public use or which benefit the subdivision generally) of the public improvements shall be filed with the Zoning Administrator in order to ensure completion of the public improvements as required by this chapter within a reasonable length of time without cost to the village. The form and sufficiency of security shall be subject to the approval of the Village Attorney and the village’s consulting engineer. Security may be in the form of a bond issued by a commercial surety licensed to do business in the state, or it may be in the form of an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a state or national bank of at least one year in duration, which provides for automatic annual renewals thereof unless at least 60 days prior to the expiration of its term or any renewal thereof, written notice of non-renewal is sent by certified mail to the village.
(B) The bond or letter of credit shall by its terms secure payment of not only the construction of the public improvements, but also of any additional review and inspection fees charged by the village engineer and imposed by the village pursuant to § 155.057 of this chapter.
