WI <br />Websire: www.bonestroo.com <br />Steve Bohl has requested that the City of Orono reduce his financial guarantee to reflect work completed in the Carriage <br />Bill subdivision in accordance with his Development Agreement. We have reviewed the work completed to date. The <br />folluwing site improvements have yet to be completed: <br />1. The seeding. sodding and spreading of topsoil work has not yet begun. Because no vegetation has been. established, <br />sediments have been washed into the storm sewer and pond. The storm sewer and pond will need to be cleaned. <br />2. Finish grading of the pond is incomplete. The berm around the southwest quarter of the pond (between the outlet <br />structure and the south end of the pond) needs to be raised to the 941 contour as shown on the grading plan. This <br />Urading is necessary so that flows reach the outlet structure and not the roadway when the pond reaches the HWL <br />(940.29). Steve indicated that this work has been done, however we will be unable to verify this until the snow cover <br />is gone. <br />The work that has been completed to date was done in accordance with City standards and is acceptable from an <br />engineering standpoint. We would recommend a reduction in the financial guarantee in the following manner: <br />Letter of Credit <br />Original Amount <br />$143.408 <br />Previous Reduction <br />$87,758 <br />Proposed Reduction <br />$12.750 <br />Revised Amount <br />$42,900 <br />The proposed financial guarantee should be retained until all site improvements are complete and vegetation has been <br />established. <br />Please contact me at (651) 604-4863 if you have any questions regarding this matter. <br />Yours very truly, <br />BONESTROO, ROSENE, ANDERLIK, & ASSOCIATES, INC. <br />Cc: Mr. Paul Weinberger, City of Orono <br />2335 West Highway 36 ■ St. Paul, MN 55113 - 651-636-4600 ■ Fax: 651-636-1311 <br />
