The Planning and Zoning Board had recommended taht a bond be posted covering the work left to be done. Mr. McLean asked if there was any problem in posting this bond. Mr. Prokop said that he had not had time to check into the cost of such a bond. Mr. Locher said that in the past the Council had allowed the amount to be placed in a Certificate of Deposit and retained by the Bank until the work was completed. Mr. Prokop said that he would need to consult with Mr. Jankus since this street is a joint project. He asked if it would be possible for just his hart to be placed in escrow. The Council felt that it would be necessary for the entire amount to be placed in escrow. Mr. Prokop said he would consult with Mr. Jankus and get the information back to the Council.
