Agreement" or An "Unconditional Guarantee" 5o I'd say any conditions on the cash guarantee are unacceptable so no time limit. »> Shirley Volk 03/16/95 05:06PM »> Yep. However, this won't be a letter of credit!. It will be cash that we will be putting in the bank to hold for them. Guess the only thing we have a question about it the time frame. He assures me that the language he has in the letter says after a certain date we CAN {if we want) use the cash to complete the project. I told him we want to make certain that the date is far enough in the future that we won't have to use the cash!!! I HATE THIS COORDINATION BUSINESS!!! I have never worked in the financial guarantee end of things before, and I'm finding it very time consuming! If you are saying that I should take the same time. guarantee language from the letter of credit form we have and use it, I can.. What Kneed to know then., is how long do you want thi's for? Landscape ,.financial guarantees can be for up to 4 months. I don't know about infrastructure... I don't recall seeing any kind of time limits in the subdivision regs, so I think it's a City Engineer`'s call. Just tell me what to do and I'11'do'it. Thanks. »> Mark Smith 03/1.6/9.8 02:46PM »> I looked at it. However,. not being an attorney myself, I don't know what wording would be appropriate. Don't ya'l1 have some standard language for bonds, letters of .credit etc.? »> Shirley Volk 0.3/16/98 11:37AM »> Mark: Have you had a chance to look at the a-mail on this where I quote, some language TAC''s atty wants to include? CC: Natalie Ruiz From: Natalie Ruiz To: jkee, klaza Dated 6/17/97_10:10am Subject: Woodcreek Phase 9 I talked to Mike McClure to clarify the naming of Stonebrook Drive. (Phase 9 will continue Stonebrook Drive to connect with Foxfire.) Mike says that in other phases of Woodcreek, Stonebrook has been called "Foxfire". However, there are no houses that are addressed off of Foxfire within the Woodcreek Subdivision. In this phase, they have also decided to change "Courtland" to "Concord". There is a Courtland street in Bryan. Courtland exists in Woodcreek II; however, no houses are addressed off of Courtland. I guess that we'll have to take a street name change before Council to clear all of this up. CC: svolk, jcallaway, shomeyer, smccully From: To: Date: Subject: Mr. Kuttler, Edwin Hard internet:kuttler@fabtexas.com 6/19/97 10:41am stonebrook stonebrook has been intended to serve as a residential collector street since the inception of Woodcreek. It has been on the City's Thoroughfare Plan since 1980. As a result, there is over a 1.5 mile section of stonebrook which is built to residential collector standards which is a 39 feet wide street in a 60 feet right-of-way. A typical residential street is slightly narrower at 28 feet. The connection will increase traffic on Woodcreek but it is by no means cause for alarm. If the residents have the perception that it will become a busy thoroughfare with a steady flow of traffic, that will not be the case. We have not done counts on stonebrook, but my estimation is that it currently carries about 400-600 vehicles per day. Foxfire Drive carries about 1200 vpd. What's going to happen with the connection is that the volumes on the Foxfire end will probably go down somewhat while those on the stonebrook end in Woodcreek will go up. I estimate the connection will''create a residential collector with volumes ranging from 1000-1500 vpd. This is typical of Francis street in College Hills and perhaps Spearman in Pebble Creek. The .folks may be interested to know that Woodcreek Drive currently carries about 1700 vpd. Below are some additional points: - the 1000-1500 vpd amounts to about 1 car every 1 to 2 minutes on a typical day. Their current estimated volume on stonebrook amounts to about 1 car every 3 minutes. - The connection will not cause "through" traffic. This traffic is residential traffic between neighborhoods which will have either an origin or a destination in either Woodcreek or Foxfire. There is no commerial development on either end of this roadway which is going to bring traffic from another part of town to this area. The majority of the additional traffic on stonebrook will be in the afternoon return home from work. For the morning "to work" traffic, it will still be faster for most residents in Foxfire to use Sebesta Road to the Frontage Rd. - It will STILL be a residential street and the speed limit will remain at 30 mph. - stonebrook and the residential lots adjacent to it have been designed and constructed correctly for it to serve as a collector street for the neighborhood. Most if not all lots have either rear or side frontage to stonebrook. Few, if any lots, front on stonebrook. And few, if any, lots have driveways which take direct access to stonebrook. - A brick fence is already in place which buffers many properties along a signficant portion of stonebrook. - Many people are already using the makeshift connection...and they are not just students.
