    16  have been made, notify said municipality of its failure to
    17  comply with all conditions precedent to payment and as soon as


     1  practicable thereafter, and in no event more than 60 days after
     2  such notice has been given, schedule and conduct a hearing upon
     3  the issue of said municipality's failure to so comply with all
     4  such conditions precedent.
