The City may exact a bond insuring the proper building and completion of the work and no permit will be issued until the owner of the lot has made a deposit in the "Special Care" fund in an amount equal to approximately one-tenth of the cost of such building subject to such adjustments as would seem advisable as determined by the type of building, material and construction. Ample time must be allowed the City to have mausoleum or vault designs properly checked and certified and the City will reserve the right to refuse a permit where such a memorial will unduly affect the adjoining lot owners or where such a plan would not work to the best lot development.

The cost of such work will be charged through the fund set up in Special Care and the balance, if any, will be redistributed to the owner or his legal heirs.
