§ 10.08.170. Deposits and other securities.

A.

Every applicant for a permit, other than the organizations listed in Section 10.08.150(D), shall be required to provide a cash deposit or other adequate security as determined by the road commissioner, to guarantee payment of fees, costs and charges due or which may become due under this chapter whenever, in the opinion of the road commissioner, the county will insure costs in conjunction with a particular permit not reasonably covered by the permit fee, or if the permittee does not fulfill all of the permit requirements, or where the nature of the particular application is such that it can reasonably be anticipated that the county will suffer costs in conjunction with the move. Agencies exempt from such a deposit are not relieved of payment of all costs incurred by county by reason of a move.

B.

A cash deposit may be in the form of a special deposit for each permit or in the form of a general cash deposit to be maintained as security for all the permits issued to an applicant.

C.

In lieu of a general cash deposit the road commissioner may accept from an applicant other types of security such as a surety bond and other approved security.

D.

The road commissioner shall bill the permittee or deduct from the deposit made or maintained by the permittee for all fees and costs chargeable under this chapter. The remainder of any deposit shall be refunded. A permit issuance fee may be refunded when a permit has been issued as a result of error not made by the permittee.
