If any application is approved under Sections 12.05.030, 12.05.040, and/or 12.05.050 of this chapter where the applicant is determined to be responsible for cost of the work, the city will not commence any work unless the applicant deposits the complete requested deposit amount with the Department of Public Works within thirty (30) days of the date of the city's request for the deposit. Failure to timely deposit the funds may be construed as a waiver of the applicant's rights and requests.
1. The Department shall maintain a schedule of typical costs for tree removal or replacement.
2. If during the course of the work, the city determines that the initial deposit is not sufficient, the city may demand, in writing, for the applicant to supplement the deposit accordingly. The city will not continue any work unless the applicant supplements the deposit as demanded by the city within ten (10) days. Failure to timely supplement the deposit may be construed as a waiver of the applicant's rights and requests, and the city may then finalize the project at its sole discretion as it deems appropriate.
3. At the completion of the project any unused deposited funds by the city shall be immediately refunded to the applicant by the city. (Ord. 2011-11-1441 § 1(part), 2011)
