(b) Plan Checking and Field Inspection Fees. At the time such plans, profiles and specifications are submitted for review, the City Engineer shall prepare an estimate of cost for office checking of all improvement plans. The subdivider shall thereupon deposit an amount of money equal to the estimated cost. All work done by the Engineer in connection with checking, computing and correcting such plans for improvements shall be charged against such deposit. If, during the progress of the work, the cost thereof appears to exceed the amount so deposited, the Engineer shall notify the subdivider of this fact and shall do no further work in connection with such review until the subdivider has deposited such additional sum of money determined necessary by the Engineer to cover the cost of the work. The subdivider shall also pay to the office of the City Engineer the total cost of field inspection of the improvements. The inspection fee shall be determined by the City Engineer. The inspector's salary shall be paid from the inspection fee. The rate per hour shall be the inspector's payroll cost times two and two-tenths in accordance with the Standard Basis for Billing from the Engineer's current schedule on file at the Mayor's office. The subdivider is held responsible for all inspection fees which shall be payable monthly. The performance bond posted by the subdivider guarantees the payment of all inspection fees and no bonds shall be released until all inspection fees have been paid in full.
