CONSENT AGENDA#: PREPARED BY: SUBJECT: DA TE: 4 (I) KEN SHERMAN, ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT #1 TO THE DEVELOPER'S AGREEMENT WITH PROGRESS LAND COMPANY FOR CARRIAGE HILLS 3RD ADDITION. October 16, 1995 INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this Agenda item is to consider approval of Amendment #1 to the Contract for Development of Land in the City of Prior Lake with Progress Land Company for Carriage Hills 3rd Addition development. BACKGROUND: The City of Prior Lake entered into a Developer's Agreement with Progress Land Company for Carriage Hills 3rd Addition on the 20th of December 1993. At that time, it was the City's practi'ce to require 250/0 of the contract amount for the construction of public utilities in the form of a Letter of Credit, during the warranty period of the project. This provides security for the condition of the streets and utilities during the warranty period. If the streets or utilities fail during the warranty period, and the contractor will not correct the failure, the City may draw on the Letter of Credit to the amount needed to correct the failure. We have since amended the requirement to allow the developer the option of choosing to provide a Letter of Credit for 50/0 of the contract amount and a performance bond for 1000/0 of the amount. 16200 Eagle Creek Ave. S.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372-1714 / Ph.

The developer has completed construction of the utilities and streets for Carriage Hills 3rd Addition. The city is willing to accept future maintenance responsibilities for this project when the warranty period expires. The alternatives are as follows: 1. Make a motion and second to approve Amendment #1 to the Developer's Agreement. 2. Table this item for specific reasons. 3. Deny this item for specific reasons.
