Body

DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION

Department of Transportation (Transportation), is recommending the Board accept the subdivision improvements for West Valley Village, Unit 5A (TM99-1359-5A), as complete, and hold Performance Bond Rider #2 (Bond 948902) in the amount of $594,758.02, representing 10% of the revised total project cost estimate, for a warranty period of one (1) year, and hold Laborers & Materialmens Bond Rider #1 (Bond 94-89-02) in the amount of $2,973,790.11 for six (6) months.  Transportation Construction Inspection staff has inspected the work and confirms the subdivision improvements are complete.

 

This recommendation begins the process of releasing the Bonds covering this subdivision improvements project.

 

DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND

The Board approved the Final Map and Subdivision Improvements Agreement (SIA) between the County and Landsource Holding Company, LLC and Lennar Communities, Inc., a California Corporation Company (Lennar Homes, Owner), for West Valley Village, Unit 5A, on August 28, 2007 (Item 20). 

 

The subdivision improvements within West Valley Village, Unit 5A, have been completed according to the plans and specifications for this development, and per the conditions of the SIA.

 

LandSource Holding Company, LLC entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Successor Owner, Lennar Homes of California, Inc. and transferred ownership of West Valley Village, Unit 5A on December 2, 2014.

 

On January 12, 2016, pursuant to Resolution 012-2016, the Board signed Amendment #4 to the SIA.  At that time, the developer had made significant progress on the project and the performance bond amount was reduced to $594,758.02 which represented ten percent (10%) of the revised total cost of the subdivision improvements.  Therefore, Transportation is not requesting any further reduction in the bond amounts pertaining to this project.

 

ALTERNATIVES

None; when the Owner/Developer completes all improvements and the County inspects and approves those improvements, the County is then obligated to approve reduction of the Bonds, if necessary, and initiate the warranty period.
