Sec. 18.1. (a) A court acting under section 17 of this chapter may condition the granting of a period of time to accomplish the action required by an order on the posting of a performance bond that will be forfeited if the action required by the order is not completed within the period the court allows. Before granting a period of time that is conditioned on the posting of a bond, the court may require that the requesting person justify the request with a workable and financially supported plan. If the court determines that a significant amount of work must be accomplished to comply with the order, the court may require that the bond specify interim completion standards and provide that the bond is forfeited if any of these interim completion standards are not substantially met. (b) An amount collected under subsection (a) on a forfeited bond shall be deposited in the unsafe building fund.
