balance remaining. If the actual cost exceeds the deposited amount, the County shall
stop all construction until the subdivider shall present a receipt for a deposit with

or record of survey map is submitted to the Board of Supervisors for approval and if

the return of any such money or negotiable bonds shall be accompanied by a certificate,
by the County Surveyor, stating that all required improvement work has been satis-
factorily completed; and no such bond shall be returned, unless and until such a
certificate, in each case, shall first have been filed with the Board of Supervisors.
"If such improvement work is not satisfactorily completed before the ex-
piration date of said agreement, the subdivider or his agent may apply for an exten-
sion of said agreement. The application shall be accompanied by an estimate of the
costs of the uncompleted portion of the improvements. The County Surveyor shall re-
port to the Board of Supervisors his estimate of said construction costs and the

the Chief of the Fire Department on account of proximity to streams, character of topo-
graphy, or nearness to buildings of high value, be diked or the entire yard provided
with a curb or retaining wall or other suitable means taken to prevent the discharge
of liquids on to other property in case of a rupture in tank or piping; the impounding
basin shall have a capacity equal to that of the largest tank plus 10 per cent of the
_ aggregate capacity of all other tanks so protected.

The Board of Supervisors of the County of Contra Costa do ordain '

SECTION I. Subsection 1 of subdivision (g) of Section 10 of Ordin-
ance No. 217 of the County of Contra Costa is hereby amended to read as follows:
" (g) 1. Except as hereinafter provided, residence

fifty feet except that less areas and widths may be per-
mitted in cases in which the Planning Commission is satis-
fied that the public interest will be served thereby and
that adequate open space will be provided about residences

not be deemed or construed to limit or restrict the authority
of the Planning Commission pursuant to the Map Subdivision
Law of the State of California to require that the area of
residence lots shall be in excess of said stated minimum
area of five thousand square feet or that the width of
said lots shall be in excess of said stated minimum of

measure, the conditions of which are as follows: The Master Plan of the County of

exercise its discretion where such discretion is authorized by said Map Subdivision Law

1 of subdivision g of Section 10 of said Ordinance No. 217 as to whether this subsection
restricts the power of the Planning Commission to control the area or size of lots.
