(b) Parcel Maps Where There Is an Unsecured Subdivision Agreement. If the subdivider elects to construct improvements after recording a parcel map by entering into an unsecured subdivision agreement, a cash deposit equal to the estimated cost of review and inspection shall be posted prior to commencement of any improvement work. The amount of deposit shall be established by the annual County Schedule of Fees and Charges Ordinance.

(c) Maps Where There Is No Subdivision Agreement. If the subdivider elects to construct improvements prior to recording a parcel map or final map and not enter into a subdivision agreement, a cash deposit shall be posted prior to commencement of any improvement work. The amount of deposit shall be established by the annual County Schedule of Fees and Charges Ordinance.

(d) Deposition of Deposit. The actual cost of review and inspection shall be deducted from the cash deposit established pursuant to subsection (a), (b) or (c) of this section. Any surplus remaining thereafter shall be refunded to the subdivider. If actual costs of review and inspection exceed the cash deposit, the subdivider shall pay to the County any excess upon receipt of a billing from the County for such excess charge.
