[Amended 1-10-2024 by L.L. No. 4-2024]
For any work where a permit is issued under this chapter and the work is new construction or the additions or alterations to buildings (not new construction) exceed 750 square feet, the owner must deposit with the Village Clerk such sum as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Trustees to be used to cover any damage caused to Village roads, Village trees or any Village property by the owner's contractor or by any other person, firm or corporation that is doing the work for which the permit is issued. The Village may withdraw such sums from the deposit as it deems necessary in its reasonable discretion to pay for repairs of such damage, including replacement of Village trees and property damaged. This deposit shall be paid by cash, bank check, or certified check, payable to the order of the Village Clerk, Village of Munsey Park. Payments made other than by cash, bank check, or certified check shall be accepted subject to collection, and the processing of the application for a permit under Chapter 87 may be stayed pending collection. In the event that any check is not honored for whatever reason, any fees or other charges caused to the Village by virtue of such dishonor shall be reimbursed to the Village as an additional application fee, and all future payments by such applicant shall be accepted only if made by cash, bank check, or certified check. Alternatively, in lieu of such deposit, the owner may file a bond in such amount and form as may be determined by the Board of Trustees.
