Landscaping, sprinkling systems, walls, fences and/or screening structures, walks, parking areas, and other on-site improvements shall be installed in accordance with approved final site plan prior to issuance of any occupancy permit. If the installation of any of these improvements cannot be completed due to weather or other circumstances beyond the control of the owner or developer, a Conditional Certificate of Occupancy may be issued if a Performance Security and Deferral Agreement are signed by the developer or owner which shall guarantee completion of all unfinished improvements. Such agreement shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Director.
The Performance Security and Deferral Agreement shall consist of:
A. A signed statement by the owner or developer that such improvements will be completed by the earliest possible date to be determined by mutual agreement between the owner or developer, the Planning Director and/or City Engineer. An extension beyond this date may be granted if the owner or developer contacts the City fourteen (14) days prior to the original completion date, the Planning Director and/or City Engineer agree to such an extension, and the agreement is so amended.
B. A performance security, in favor of Bountiful City and in an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the estimated cost of installation of the unfinished improvements, is received in the form of either a security bond by a surety company duly authorized to do business in the State of Utah, or a letter of credit by a bank or savings and loan institution, or a cash deposit. The performance security shall be refunded upon inspection and acceptance of the improvements by the City of Bountiful.
C. A signed agreement by the owner or developer that the bond will be forfeited to the City in the event the improvements are not installed by the agreed date, including a statement the City will have the right to take legal action to compel the completion of such improvements.
