    If the enforcing officer determines that the performance of the work described in a permit is unsatisfactory or unacceptable, or both, the permittee shall reconstruct the work to the satisfaction of the enforcing officer.

    (b)

    If the enforcing officer determines that delay in pursuit or completion of the act or work is due to lack of diligence or wilful act on the part of the permittee, or that the work is unsatisfactory or unacceptable, or both, if essential to the health, safety or welfare of the public, the enforcing officer may request the board of supervisors for authorization to perform or contract with any licensed general contractor to complete, erect, install, reconstruct or alter all structures or work in conformance with the permit, or to remove all structures and obliterate all work not completed. The costs (including administrative and overhead expenses) incurred thereby shall be repaid to the county from the cash, instrument of credit or surety bond deposited by the permittee with the county for the performance of the work; provided, that any and all costs incurred by the county which exceed the cash deposit, instrument of credit or surety bond's penalty sum shall be paid by the permittee to the county.
