If and whenever the City of Larkspur has recourse to any such bond, the sum to be forfeited to the City shall not be deemed a penalty, nor shall any portion of the principal amount of the bond or of the payment to the City, be retained beyond the actual cost and expense of performing or correcting the default or violation, cleaning the streets or public places and repairing the damage or injury done thereby. Any surplus remaining on hand after accomplishing these things shall be returned to the person or persons who shall have made the deposit or forfeiture. The City Council shall in any such case find and determine the amount of such cost and expense, and shall direct such refund to be made. For this purpose the Director of Public Works shall make a written report to the City Council upon completion of any such cleaning or performance or repair work, and the City Council shall make its determination thereon at the earliest practical time after receiving such report. Any person dissatisfied with any decision or finding of the Director of Public Works or City Council pertaining to this section shall be entitled to a public hearing thereon upon making written demand therefor and shall be heard and entitled to present evidence upon each and all of such matters at the next succeeding regular meeting of the City Council. After the presentation of such matters upon any such public hearing, the finding and decision of the City Council thereon shall be final and binding upon all persons. (Ord. 696 § 2 (part), 1983; Ord. 215 § 5(c), 1952)
