City may, from year to year, in its sole <br /> discretion, reduce the amount of the bond. <br /> b. The time for Grantee to correct any violation or liability, shall be extended by <br /> City if the necessary action to correct such violation or liability is, in the sole <br /> determination of City, of such a nature or character as to require more than thirty <br /> (30) days within which to perform, provided Grantee provides written notice that <br /> it requires more than thirty (30) days to correct such violations or liability, <br /> commences the corrective action within the thirty (30) days period and thereafter <br /> uses reasonable diligence to correct the violation or liability. <br /> C. In the event this Franchise is revoked by reason of default of Grantee, City shall <br /> be entitled to collect from the performance bond that amount which is attributable <br /> to any damages sustained by City as a result of said default or revocation. <br /> d.
