(3) 
The City will withhold any occupancy permits until the assessment is paid.
c. 
Post Occupancy.
(1) 
Within a two-year period after the occupancy permit is issued, the developer shall replace protected trees that die or are damaged beyond repair, as a result of grading or construction damage, as determined by a certified arborist.
(2) 
The number of replacement trees is determined by matching the combined caliper of trees to be planted with the diameter (DBH) of trees that were lost.
(3) 
Failure to plant the required replacement trees shall constitute default, and the City shall be entitled to proceed against the financial guarantee.
(4) 
If spatial limitations prohibit the ability to replant all required trees on the site, the City may accept a plan to plant the additional trees on a City-owned site or the City may accept a payment into an established tree bank for use by the City to plant or maintain public trees in the future.
