r
, .~
I- .
1. Petition for Improvements. Developer herein
'petitions the City to construct those improvements
(hereinafter referred to as "Petition Items") set forth in
the Feasibility Study for the Westwind Second Addition, as
prepared by Meyer-Rohlin, Inc., and dated June 3, 1991,
attached hereto and marked Exhibit "B".
2. Waiver. Developer waives all right to a public
hearing and other statutory rights granted to a property
owner under Chapter 429 of Minnesota statutes as the said
rights therein granted relate to Petition Items as described
in Exhibit "B".
3. Petition Items. The City shall construct, at its
discretion, all or a portion of the Petition Items as shown
on Exhibit "B" pursuant to its regular methods of making
public improvements. The Developer agrees that special
assessments for said improvements may be ievied by the City,
without Developer's objection, after construction is
commenced. Thereafter, the expense incurred or to be
incurred in making the improvement shall be calculated under
the direction of the Council. The Developer further agrees
that the City may recover its costs and expenses related to
the construction including legal, fiscal, bonding,
administrative and engineering, by leV~ of said special
assessments to be payable in equal principal installments
together with interest thereon from the date of the
resolution levying the assessment as determined by the City
over a period of not more than twelve (12) years.
4. Petition Items - Surety. The Developer agrees to
pay sufficient amounts of special assessments each year, if
not already paid in prior years, for properties lying within
said plat to enable the City to pay any debt service
payments incurred as a result of the construction of the
Petition Items, including principal and interest, as such
payments come due. Any deficiencies in the amount paid by
the Developer for special assessments causing a shortage of
funds with which the City may timely pay the required debt
service payment(s) shall be supplemented with funds
withdrawn by the City from the Developer's approved letter
of credit or other surety furnished to the City. Any of
said surety or guaranty of funds referred to herein that are
withdrawn will be used by the City for payment of its herein
referred debt service payment when due. Upon the Developer
paying the delinquent special assessments, the City will
repay to the surety, to the extent that the delinquent
special assessments have been paid, the surety monies
withdrawn, less any costs incurred by the City in
conjunction with the said delinquent special assessments.
The Developer shall provide the City with cash,
approved irrevocable letter of credit or other satisfactory
surety in the amount of twenty-five percent (25%) of the
estimated total assessment resulting from the Petition Item
improvements.
.\
The said twenty-five percent (25%) surety is the
guarantee referred to earlier in this section that
sufficient revenue is annually produced by the payment of
special assessments to enable the City to pay the required
debt service payment. The City may draw on said surety for
cash flow purposes to supplement the Developer's payments
when Developer is delinquent in the payment of said special
assessments.
5 .
Surety.
On and Off-site Im~rovements/Escrow Items:
A. Developer shall perform all on- and off-site
improvements including boulevards, boulevard top soil and
sod, trees planted in the front yards of those lots abutting
the boulevards, grading control per lot, bituminous or
concrete driveway approaches, drainage swales, berming,
street signs, front yard trees, sod and like items, street
cleanup during project development, erosion control and a
retention pond, and which improvements to the Subject
property shall be referred to herein as "Escrow Items".
Developer will provide the City with cash, irrevocable
letter of credit or other satisfactory surety in the sum of
$i5,000 which figure represents 50% of the estimated cost of
the Escrow Items. As an alternative, Developer may extend
its current letter of credit required by paragraph 5 (a) of
the Developer's Agreement between the City of Albertville
and John F. Darkenwald and George W. Yankoupe (dated April
27, 1988) and applicable to on- and off~site improvements
within the Plat of Westwind subdivision. Such extension
shall be in an amount not less than $20,000, the full amount
of which can be drawn upon by the City as specified under
this agreement or under the April 27, 1988 Developer's
Agreement referred to above. Said extended letter of credit
shall be reduced to $15,000 upon completion of all on- and
off-site items required by and as specified in paragraph 5
(a) of the April 27, 1988 Developer's Agreement. If so
reduced, the remaining $15,000 surety shall apply to those
on- and off-site improvement items described in this
paragraph, and the further reduction of the $15,000 surety
shall be governed by paragraph 5 (B) below.
The said surety shall be a guaranty to the City that
with the exception of boulevard improvements (sod, trees,
driveway approaches), the construction and completion of the
Escrow Items by the Developer, to the City's satisfaction,
will be completed on or before Octob~r 1, 1994. The
boulevard. improvements for each lot or parcel shall be
completed to the City's satisfaction within sixty (60) days
of the date that a certificate of occupancy (temporary or
permanent) is issued by the City for a building located on
the lot; unless the certificate of occupancy is issued after
October 1st and before March 30th in any given year, in
which case the boulevard improvements shall be so completed
by the following June 15th. At the City's option, it may
install street sign(s) and bill the direct cost of materials
and installation to the Developer who will pay the bill
within ten (10) days of the billing.

, "
~. '.
.'
B. That portion of said cash, irrevocable letter of
credit, or other surety which is required with respect to
the performance of on and off-site improvements shall be
released upon certification of the City Engineer and
approval of the City Council that such items are
satisfactorily completed pursuant to this Agreement.
Periodically, as payments are made by the Developer for the
completion of portions of the items described under "Escrow
Items," and when it is reasonably prudent, the Developer may
request of the City that the surety be reduced for that
portion of the project which has been fully completed and
payment made therefor. The City's cost for processing
reduction request(s) shall be billed to the Developer. Such
cost shall be paid to the City within thirty (30) days of
the date of mailing the billing.
6. Surety Release. The developer may request of the
City a reduction or release of any surety provided for in
conjunction with the Petition Items (described in Exhibit B)
and on- and off-site improvements (listed in section five
above) as follows:
A. When another acceptable surety is furnished
to the City to replace a prioi surety.
B. When the final cost amount minus previous payments
becomes less than the surety provided, thus
allowing the surety to be reduced to a sum
commensurate with the remaining amount of the
pr oj ect.
C. No reduction shall be made which would result
in the surety held being less than thirty-five
percent (35%) of the original surety until the
final costs are known.
D. The Developer may petition the City Council for a
reduction or release of that portion of the surety
attributable to the Petition Items at such time as
seventy-five percent (75%) of the properties to be
assessed as a result of the construction of the
Petition Items either: (1) are clear of all past,
present, and future assessments due, or (2) are
no longer owned by John George, Inc., and the
current owner has been issued a certificate of
occupancy by the City for the residence built upon
the property. The City Council may consider such a
request, but the Council shall have the right to
deny such request in the exercise of its
discretion.
The City's costs for processing any reduction request
shall be billed at $30 per hour with a minimum of one (1)
hour per reduction, and shall be billed to the Developer and
paid to the City within thirty (30) days thereof.

soil and silt to deposit in such siltation pond before said
water drains into the retention pond, all according to
specifications as approved by the United States Army Corps

15. Draw on Expiring Letter ofCredit~ In the event a
surety or other form of guarantee referred to herein is in

or completed, it is agreed that the Developer shall provide
the City with a new letter of credit or other surety,
acceptable to the City, at least forty-five (45) days prior
to the expiration of the expiring letter of credit. If a
new letter of credit is not received as required above, the
City may declare a default in the terms of this Agreement

discretion, upon the expiring letter of credit to avoid the
loss of surety for the continued obligation.
16. Violation of Agreement. In the case of default by
the Developer, its successors or assigns, of any of the
covenants and agreements herein contained, the City shall
give Developer thirty (30) days mailed notice thereof, and

period, the City is hereby granted the right and privilege
to declare any deficiencies governed by this Agreement due
and payable to the City in full. The thirty (30) day notice
period shall be deemed to run from the date of deposit in
the united states Mail. The City may thence immediately and
without notice or consent of the Developer use all of the
deposited escrow funds, irrevocable letter of credit or
other surety funds to complete the Developer's obligations
as set forth herein, whether related to Petition Items or
on- or off-site improvements, and to bring legal action
against the Developer to collect any sums due to the City
pursuant to this Agreement, plus all costs and attorney's
fees incurred in enforcing this agreement.
Paragraph 16 shall not apply to failure by subsequent
lot owners to maintain the berm as required by Paragraph 14
(A) above and the remedy therein provided shall be the sole
remedy for such default with respect to said Paragraph 14
(A) .
Paragraph 16 shall not apply to any acts or rights of
the City under paragraph 15 above, and no notice need be
given to the Developer as a condition precedent to the City
declaring a default or drawing upon the expiring irrevocable
letter of credit as therein authorized.
17. Attorney's Fees. The Developer will pay all
reasonable attorney's fees incurred by the City and as fixed
by the Court in the event a suit or action is brought to
enforce the terms of this Agreement or in the event an
action is brought upon a bond or letter of credit furnished
by the Developer as provided herein.
18. Notification Information. Any notices to the
parties herein shall be by registered mail addressed as
