DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
The project developer desires approval of their Final Plat prior to completing all improvements associated with the subdivision. Land Development Code Section 2.18.4.D states that if the improvements are not completed, an Improvement Agreement shall be provided and approved by the Board, as well as a security, limited to an irrevocable letter of credit or bond only, in the amount of 120 percent of the estimated cost of remaining improvements. The original Improvement Agreement with Bond was in the amount of $2,594,936.45 and was approved on October 3, 2023 and recorded in OR Book 8172, Page 169.
