1e. Letter of Credit and Exp. date for Installation of Improvements for 7/41 Crossing CITY OF .-�'- A CHANHASSEN 690 COULTER DRIVE • P.O. BOX 147 • CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA 55317 1 (612) 937-1900 • FAX (612) 937-5739 1 MEMORANDUM TO: Gary Warren, City Engineer FROM: Dave Hempel, Sr. Engineering Technician a DATE: November 28, 1989 1 SUBJ: Extend Letter of Credit and Expiration Date for Installation of Improvements for Seven Forty-One Crossing (HSZ site) 1 Project No. 88-17 (put) The developer, Roger Zahn, has requested that the City grant him an extension of ' time to complete installation of the required improvements for his development of Seven Forty-One Crossing. In addition, he is requesting a reduction and extension to his letter of credit. According to the development contract for Seven Forty-One Crossing, the expira- tion date for installation of improvements is November 30, 1989. The letter of ' credit will expire on December 31, 1989. As you may recall, Mr. Zahn's letter of credit also includes the improvements for Reed's Orchard Ridge Addition. The developer has successfully installed approximately 80% of the required improve- ments on both the Seven Forty-Cne Crossing site and Reed's'Orchard Ridge. Remaining items include landscaping for the Seven Forty-One Crossing development along with street construction on 64th Street in Reed's Orchard Ridge Addition. ' Pursuant to the development contract, the letter of credit may be reduced to no less than 25% of the original amount until all improvements are complete and accepted by the City. The City currently holds a letter of credit in the amount of $297,000. 25% of this amount would be $74,250. I feel this amount is suf- ficient to complete the remaining improvements on both projects. Therefore, it is recommended that the City Council grant the request to extend 1 the time of performance to install the required improvements to July 1, 1990 together with a reduction in the letter of credit to the amount of 25% of the original amount ($297,000) which is calculated to be $74,250. The letter of ' credit should be for a term ending December 31, 1990. OFFICIAL ENGINEERING COPY Attachments Received 1. Letter from Roger Zahn dated November 30, 1989. Revision No. 2.
