3. Under Ordinance 2001-132, the City Manager and/or his/her designee in review of any application, may refer any such application presented to it to such engineering, planning, legal, technical, or environmental consultant or professional(s) employed by the City as the Manager shall deem reasonably necessary to enable him/her to review such application as required by law. Charges made by such consultants or professionals shall be in accord with the charges customarily made for such services in Miami-Dade County, and pursuant to an existing contractual agreement by and between the City and such consultant. Charges made by the City shall be in accord with the hourly rates charged by such consultants or hourly rates of employed professionals and shall be paid within 30 days on submission of City voucher. 4. At the time of submission of any application or thereafter, it is required that an escrow account be established, from which withdrawals shall be made to reimburse the City for the cost of professional review services, if any. The Applicant shall then provide funds to the City for deposit into such account in an amount to be determined by the City Manager, based on his/her evaluation of the nature and complexity of the application. The Applicant shall be provided with copies of any City voucher for such services as they are submitted to the City. When the balance in such escrow is reduced to one-third (1/3) of its initial amount, the applicant shall deposit additional funds into such account to bring its balance up to the amount of the initial deposit. If such account is not replenished within thirty-days (30) after the applicant is notified, in writing, of the requirements for such additional deposit, the City may suspend its review of the application. An application shall be deemed incomplete if any amount shall be outstanding. A building permit or Certificate of Use and Certificate of Occupancy shall not be issued unless all professional review fees charged in connection with the applicant's project have been reimbursed to the City. Once all pertinent charges have been paid, the City shall refund to the Applicant any funds remaining on deposit. 5. The Applicant shall furnish payment and performance bond in an amount determined by the Building Official to ensure Applicant's performance of public improvements required pursuant to site plan approval and in accordance with recommendations of the Building Official after review of construction plans submitted based on development approval granted herein. Any such bond shall be issued by a surety having a minimum rating of A-I in the Best's Key Rating Ouide, Property/Casualty Edition, shall be subject to the approval of the City, and shall provide that "this bond may not be cancelled or allowed to lapse until 30 days after receipt by the City, by certified mail, return receipt requested, of written notice from the issuer of the bond of intent to cancel or not to renew". As improvements are made the City, within its discretion, may reduce or eliminate the bond amount. These rights reserved by the City with respect to any construction bond established pursuant to this section are in addition to all other rights and remedies the City may have under this Resolution, in law or in equity. 6.
