body shall, within three months from the date of the notification,
pay to the engineer or surveyor from any deposit the amount due.

employee otherwise qualified to prepare or approve parcel maps or
final maps as defined in Title 7 of Division 2 to release or reduce
the amount of the cash deposit to pay the engineer or surveyor for
setting the final monuments pursuant to the conditions specified in
this section. The legislative body may prescribe additional rules
