concurred. Commissioner Masden moved to approve said cancellation and release of collateral.
Commissioner Garcia seconded the motion. Esther Gesick, Attending Clerk, clarified the Resolution is
drafted to reflect the request of the applicant; however, if the Board intends to support staffs' request, then
additional language needs to be added to clarify that the collateral will not be released until the
replacement 15 percent warranty collateral is submitted by the applicant. At the request of Chair Jerke,
Commissioners Masden and Garcia withdrew the original motion. Chair Jerke confirmed the applicant is
not in attendance to speak to the matter. In response to Chair Jerke, Mr. Dunker clarified the sewer and
water improvements, in the amount of $11,487.50, are being excluded, so the 15 percent warranty
