Chairman Banks opened up the discussion on the Scenic Village Subdivision Final Agreement. Chairman Banks stated that since Administrator Young had worked a great deal on preparing this agreement, he would turn this matter over to Administrator Young. Admin.

At this time the "voided" copies of the original agreement were handed out to the Planning Commissioners. Administrator Young told the Commission the purpose of handing:- out the "voided" copies of this agreement was to make the Commis- sioners aware of the various changes made by the City Council and City Attorney DuBay. The various changes reported by Administrator Young were noted as follows: (1) Page 2, Letter B, Sidewalks, under Time of Completion, November 1, 1975 should read upon final, acceptance of the houses for occupancy.(corrected from December 17, 1974 Minutes) (2) Page 3, Paragraph 1 of voided agreement read as follows: "All alterations, extension of time, extra and additional work and others changes authorized by the Agreement documents may be made without securing the consent of the surety or sureties on the Agreement bonds." This r:paragraph was entirely changed to state 1 that authorization had to be secured with the consent of the surety or sureties within any changes of the Subdivision construction.

Young, that the following sentence, page 3, paragraph 21 be deleted from the agreement: "Any assignment, loan, or sale. of property shall be named in a surety bond to benefit the City in the amount of improve- ments associated with the transaction or a separate agreement shall be prepared by the subdivider to be submitted for City Council approval prior to any transaction". Attorney DuBay stated that this sentence did not affect the City in any additional security, and, therefore, should be omitted.
