The STC rating shall be based on the American Society for Testing and Materials system specified in ASTM B90-66t or equivalent. The IIC rating shall be based on the system in use at the National Bureau of Standards or equivalent. Ratings obtained from other testing procedures will require adjustment to the above rating systems.

A surety bond shall be posted with the City by the applicant and/or subsequent developer of a planned condominium development for the purpose of assurance of maintenance of utilities, fire equipment, roadways and other portions of the development which impact on the public health, safety and welfare. The amount of the surety bond shall be determined by the Commission, but shall not be less than $5,000. In lieu of a surety bond, the applicant may deposit a cash bond in the amount determined as above. The bond shall be maintained for the life of the planned condominium development. The cost of the bond shall be the responsibility of the applicant and/or subsequent developer until 75% of all units have been transferred to private ownership, at which point the property owner's association shall become responsible for maintenance of said bond. Should the Commission determine that a default has occurred in the performance of adequate maintenance of the planned condominium development, the Commission shall instruct the Chief Building Inspector to notify (in writing) the property owner's association and the surety on the bond of the maintenance violations. Such notice shall state the work to be done, the estimated cost thereof and the period of time allocated for completion of such work. After receipt of such notice the property owner's association and/or surety must, within the time therein
