Administrator Statz stated that City Code addresses securities/Letters of Credit (LOC) but is
unclear regarding reductions and releases of same. He stated that approximately 90% of the
LOC is for infrastructure within the development and the remainder if for grading, landscaping,
etc. Attorney Glaser stated that the policy was drafted in place of amending the code as code is
law and a policy allows for situational variations. Administrator Statz stated that the policy is a
tool for developers, aiding them in receiving reductions upon finishing the project in phases
allowing them to secure additional securities for other projects.
Discussion took place regarding monthly requests for reductions which could be
extreme/unwarranted and time-consuming and that the developer should have an appeal
opportunity before Council.

the Council". All in favor. Motion carried.
