(Prior code § 2-3.15; Ord. 2038 § 1, 2012)
Prior to the approval by the council of the final map, the subdivider shall execute and file an agreement between him or herself and the city, specifying the period within which he or she shall complete all improvement work to the satisfaction of the city engineer, and providing that if he or she shall fail to complete such work within such period, the city may complete the same and recover the full cost and expense thereof from the subdivider.

For the construction of the improvements in units;

The council may enter into an agreement with the subdivider for posting a bond or cash deposit as provided in Section 19.24.080 of this chapter. In such case, when the agreement and bond or deposit have been approved by the city attorney as to form, and by the city engineer as to sufficiency, the council may consider the final map. The council shall approve the map if it conforms to the requirements of this code and the Subdivision Map Act. If it does not conform it shall be disapproved and the subdivider is informed.

Such bonds shall be executed by a surety company authorized to transact a surety business in the state and must be satisfactory to and be approved by the city attorney as to form.

In the event the subdivider shall fail to complete all improvement work in accordance with the provisions of this chapter and the city shall cause to be completed, then the city may call on the surety company for, or may appropriate from any cash deposits, funds for reimbursement.
