In addition thereto, the applicant, by filing a petition for amendment, shall agree to reimburse the Town for all costs incurred by the Town in the retention of experts or other nonmunicipal consultants necessary in the sole judgment of the Town acting through its Town Council and its Planning Board to adequately review the site plan.

The applicant shall pay such sum to the Town of Barrington within 10 days of receipt of notice thereof. Failure by the applicant to make such payment shall constitute a withdrawal of the application. The Town shall account to the applicant for all sums expended and, in the event that the Town shall not spend the sum deposited by the applicant, shall rebate the unexpended amount to the applicant.
  • C. The Town may, from time to time, modify the budget requirements and require the applicant to provide additional funds as a precondition to further action by the Town in review of the application.
