This section is included in your selections.

A. Prior to issuance of any public dance license a cash security deposit in the amount of one hundred dollars shall be submitted to the city clerk as security for the cleanup of all litter resulting from any public dance authorized by the licensee. In the event the licensee fails to clean up all litter on any public or private property which results from any public dance conducted by the licensee within twenty-four hours of the end of the dance, the city may cause such litter to be cleaned up and pay the costs of the cleanup out of the security funds. (Litter resulting from the public dance shall be limited to that occurring within a one block radius of the location of the dance unless clearly identified to the dance.) In the event the cost of the cleanup exceeds the amount of funds on deposit, the licensee shall pay such excess costs.

B. In the event funds are expended out of a security deposit required by this section, the licensee shall, within five days of receipt of notice of such expenditure, submit the amount necessary to replenish the security fund to the amount of the full security deposit. No renewal license shall be issued unless the full amount of the security deposit for litter cleanup is on deposit with the city at the time of the application for renewal. If funds sufficient to replenish the fund are not received within five days of receipt of written notice then the license shall be suspended until sufficient funds are received. Within the five days of receipt of notice of deficiency, the licensee may inform the clerk in writing of circumstances justifying nonpayment of additional funds which information shall be considered by the clerk and the license shall not be suspended if the nonpayment in the opinion of the clerk is justified.

C. If the funds for security for cleanup are fully expended within any one week, or if the funds for cleanup fall below fifty dollars twice in any quarter or five times in any year, then the clerk shall require an additional cash deposit of the higher of two hundred dollars or the greatest one-week expenditure for cleanup during the prior year.

D. Upon termination of all activities authorized by a public dance license and cleanup of all litter resulting from such an activity, the remainder of all funds deposited as security for litter cleanup shall be refunded to the licensee, without interest. (Ord. 1454-88 § 16, 1988.)
