9:31:40 AM Commissioner Murdock I move that we 1. extend the expiration date of the Improvements Agreement from September 15, 2008 to September 15, 2009, and this is for Black Bull Run, and that 2. we reduce the existing letter of credit from $3,160,168 to $120,555.55 required to cover the improvements under warranty as described by Sean O'Callaghan, and that 3. we accept the applicant's new letter of credit in the amount of $100, 012.50 which is valid until September 15, 2010, this would guarantee the completion of the trails improvements, and then 4. the motion would also include we would remove the payment of road and fire impact fees from the Improvements Agreement in exchange for the payment of impact fees for the lots that have already been sold and secure the payment of road and fire impact fees for those lots yet to be sold by the
filing of lien on those properties. And I understand that check amount would be for $158,208.00. Chris, do I need to do more?
