Upon approval of the plan and profile by the director, the applicant shall be required to post with the city an indemnity bond or cash deposit in the amount of 150 percent of the construction cost of the work in the right-of-way or $2,500, whichever is greater. The amount of the bond or deposit shall be established by the director by determining the cost incurred in backfilling, compaction, restoration of cuts in pavement, adjustment of surface appurtenances and otherwise completely restoring all invasions of city right-of-way to their original condition.

Exception: For permitted work associated with single-family residential projects or for other special circumstances to be judged on a case-by-case basis and not associated with a current or future development, the security deposit may be waived by the director. (Ord. 2726 § 4, 2008; Ord. 462, 1969)
