It shall be the responsibility of the developer to maintain the entire site or subdivision in a safe and orderly condition during construction. Necessary steps shall be taken by the developer to protect occupants of the site or subdivision and the general public from hazardous and unsightly conditions during the entire construction period. These steps shall include, but are not limited to, the following:

Should the developer fail in his/her obligation to maintain the site or subdivision in a safe and orderly condition, the City may, on five days' written notice or immediately in the case of hazard to life, health or property, undertake whatever work may be necessary to return the site or subdivision to a safe and orderly condition and deduct the cost thereof from the 10% cash or certified check portion of the performance guarantee. Upon notice of such deduction, the developer shall, within 10 days, restore the full 10% cash balance or his/her performance guarantee will be held to be void and the City may take action as if final plat approval had not been obtained.

The Construction Official shall, upon receiving notice from the City Engineer that a developer is in violation of this section, suspend further issuance of certificates of occupancy and building permits and may order cessation of work on any outstanding permits.
