Re: Willow Glen Phase 1 Road bond inspection
Your bond reduction and release requests for Willow Glen Phase 1 have been processed. The current
bond amount is $326,350.00 (split between public $185,270.00 and private $141,080.00).
Thank you for the recent submittal of the Stormwater system video with as -built utility plan. The video
appeared to show the pipes were installed properly.
The existing road bond is split into two categories, public and private. The Private road bond amount
can be reduced from $141,080.00 to $32,600 at this time. The public portion $ 185,270.00 can be
reduced to $37,500.00 at this time. The total road bond amount for Willow Glen Phase 1 is $70,100.00
and No further reductions may occur for this road project prior to final acceptance.
I have itemized the list to help facilitate adherence to the County requirements. Items in bold will need
to be addressed prior road acceptance into the system:
