[R.O. 2012 §420.190]
A.
In
any event where work performed does not meet or exceed the provisions
of the approved storm water management plan and specifications, a
written notice to comply shall be served upon the developer. Such
notice shall set forth the nature of the correction required, and
the time within which corrections shall be made. Failure to comply
with such notice shall result in the issuance of a stop work order
applicable to all construction activity except that necessary for
correction of the violation. Upon correction of the violation, the
stop work order shall be voided and construction may resume.
1.
Bond forfeiture. In the event of continued violation
of the approved storm water management plan, a public hearing on the
matter shall be conducted by the Board of Aldermen. Written notice
of such hearing shall be served upon the developer by registered mail
and shall state:
B.
Such
notices shall be served at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date
set for the hearing. The City Clerk shall publish a public notice
of said hearing in a newspaper of general circulation a minimum of
one (1) time prior to the date of the hearing. At any such hearing,
the developer shall be given an opportunity to be heard, and he/she
may call witnesses and present evidence on his/her behalf. After such
hearing, if the Board of Aldermen concludes that the issuance of additional
correction notices would be futile, any bonds or cash deposits posted
with the City shall be forfeited, whereupon said security shall be
used for completion of the storm water management plan as approved.
[R.O. 2012 §420.200]
Any person, firm, or corporation who violates or fails to comply

dollars ($500.00) per lot. A separate offense shall be deemed committed
upon each day during, or on which a violation occurs or continues.
