The Locale development <br />consists of 133 for -rent residential units within a five -story building, with two levels of <br />subterranean parking. <br />The construction permit, approved and issued by the City, required the developer to <br />make on-site and off-site improvements.

In addition, the development was responsible for <br />reconnecting Fuller Street to Winslow Street, in accordance with the Downtown Precise <br />Plan. The total value of improvements completed is estimated at $575,823.40. <br />ANALYSIS <br />The developer, Fuller Street Partners, LLC, has completed the construction of <br />improvements in accordance with the Improvement Agreement, the plans and <br />specifications, and to the satisfaction of the City's Engineering Division. <br />The developer provided faithful performance and labor and material ("payment") bonds <br />in the amount of $575,823.40, which may now be released in accordance with the terms <br />written in the Improvement Agreement. A maintenance (warranty) bond in the amount of <br />$57,582.34 (10% of the faithful performance bond) will be held for a one-year period, in <br />the event any of the improvements fail within that time. <br />
