The city administrator or his designated agent shall determine the condition of public facilities (including photos and documentation) prior to the initiation of the operation. A bond, for a reasonable amount, shall be required for the amount determined by the city administrator, or his designated agent. Immediately after completion of the drilling of the well site, repairs will commence on the damage that has been done to the public property. Failure of the applicant to correctly repair all damaged public facilities, for which it has been determined responsible, may result in the revocation of all existing or future permits for such company, and the qualified and licensed attorneys at law contracted to provide legal services pursuant to sections 2-111—2-113 of this Code is authorized to take what means are necessary to ensure that the public facilities are repaired.
