® � r THE MOBILE HOMES ON THE LOTS AND PROCEED TO PUT IN THE ELECTRICITY, DRIVEWAYS, ETC., WHICH THEY COULD NOT DO OTHERWISE. THIS IS OF GREAT ASSISTANCE TO THE DEVELOPER AND THE HOMEOWNER, COMMISSIONER LOY ASKED IF THIS DOES NOT MAKE THE COUNTY STAFF ALMOST AT THE BECK AND CALL OF VILLAGE GREEN TO CHECK EVERY TIME THEY THINK THEY HAVE REACHED THE 95%. ADMINISTRATOR NELSON NOTED IF WE HAD MULTIPLE WITHDRAWALS, THAT WOULD BE THE SITUATION, BUT FORMER ADMINISTRATOR JACK JENNINGS WANTED IT MADE A ONE TIME WITHDRAWAL AT THE TIME IT WAS 95% COMPLETE. CHAIRMAN SIEBERT COMMENTED EVEN IF IT IS 95% COMPLETE, WE STILL MUST BE COVERED FOR THE REMAINDER. HE NOTED THAT IT IS NOT VILLAGE GREEN THAT PRESENTS THE PROBLEM, BUT THE FACT THAT THERE WILL BE SUCH REQUESTS FROM MANY DEVELOPERS. HE FELT THE COUNTY IS ASSUMING A SECONDARY LIABILITY. ATTORNEY COLLINS AGREED THAT IS TRUE, BUT HE FELT THE ENGINEER IS ASSUMING PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY. HE BELIEVED THAT IN GENERAL THE COUNTY SHOULD DISCOURAGE THIS SORT OF THING BECAUSE IT DOES CREATE SOME ADMINISTRATIVE HASSLE THAT THE COUNTY IS NOT COMPENSATED FOR. ADMINISTRATOR NELSON ALSO FELT THIS SHOULD BE HANDLED ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS AS HE WAS OF THE OPINION THERE ARE SOME DEVELOPERS WE WOULD NOT WANT TO BOND. CHAIRMAN SIEBERT FELT THERE SHOULD BE A TIME LIMIT FOR THE WORK BEING COMPLETED BECAUSE OF THE RATE OF INFLATION, AND MR. SILLS STATED THAT HE WOULD HAVE NO OBJECTION TO A TIME LIMIT. HE FELT THEY SHOULD BE FINISHED IN 30 DAYS, BUT HE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE 120 DAYS, COMMISSIONER LYONS FELT WE HAVE SET UP A CERTAIN WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS PARTICULAR DEVELOPER. HE AGREED POSSIBLY WE SHOULD CHANGE OUR WAY OF DOING BUSINESS, BUT FELT IT WOULD BE CONSISTENT TO CONTINUE AS WE HAVE DONE WITH THIS DEVELOPER AND CHANGE IT FOR OTHERS AS TIME GOES ON. CHAIRMAN SIEBERT WISHED TO MAKE SURE THESE REQUESTS ARE SCREENED CAREFULLY, AND ATTORNEY COLLINS NOTED THAT THE BOARD HAS DISCRETIONARY AUTHORITY. 53 BOO K� �� SEP 2 41980
