Kim,
Sometimes I forget that you came to the City during the housing bust and really didn't get a chance to work the procedures
the City set up during the boom for plat recording! After having one developer record the plat but not the developer's
agreement,the City instituted a policy that we would either: 1) release a signed plat,developer's agreement and all other
recordable documents to a third party closer with instructions on the order of recording of the documents, or 2) require that a
City staff member accompany the developer along with the plat,developer's agreement, etc.to the recorder's office with a
letter indicating the order of recording. We would then have the developer schedule a time that works for the City to go to
Buffalo to record the plat.
Last I heard the Developer had to drop the plat off at the County Highway Department or County Surveyor's Office (they were
both in the same building before they built the new public works building). From there,the Developer would go to the County
Recorder's office, pay all applicable fees, and drop off all of the remaining documents with the recording instructions. The
Recorder would examine everything, making sure that all documents were in recordable form. The Recorder would then set
everything aside until the plat came through from the County Surveyor and Auditor's office with all of the correct signatures
(this usually takes several days). Once the plat arrived,the Recorder would record the plat,followed by the developer's
agreement,the other documents required by the City,then the Developer's documents, (mortgages, deeds, etc.).
I can prepare the letter for the recorder if you can confirm the documents that we have to record. I know we have the plat,
modified developer's agreement and notice of completion of proceedings. Are there any others?

have all the original signatures for the developers agreement as well as the completion of proceedings (and resolution
to go with it). Does the completion of proceedings also need to be recorded? Am I just to hold the documents until we
hear from the developer?
Thanks,
Kim

Kim,
I have the original agreement signed by Centra in my office and will drop it off next time I'm at City Hall. We will simply
combine the original pages into one document for recording purposes.

I have the development agreement with city signatures but not with Centra North. Can they sign at closing or should I
send them to be signed and have them send an executed copy back to us? Thanks.

Kim,
Please find attached a Notice of Completion of Proceedings for the vacation of the Karston Cove 3rd drainage and utility
easements. Can you please sign this document, have it notarized, and make sure it goes with the signed Developer's
Agreement and Plat for Karston Cove 4th Addition when they are released for recording? Please let me and Dave Pattberg
(copied on this email) know when the document is ready. Thank you.
