Re: Ashbury Woods / Unit III
Letter of Credit Reduction
Dear Jim:
Attached please find correspondence from Donven Homes, Inc., pertaining to a request for
a reduction in the Letter of Credit for the above - captioned Subdivision. I have reviewed the
attached and find it acceptable to lower the Letter of Credit amount to $200,000.00 (not
$176,211.53), due to increases in paving costs necessary to complete this development.
Should you have any questions conceming this matter, please do not hesitate to contact
me.
Very truly yours,

RE: Letter of Credit Reduction — Ashbury Woods Unit 3
Dear Jim:
Regarding our Letter of Credit renewal for Ashbury Woods Unit 3, I am enclosing a
copy of the Engineer's Estimate that the original Letter of Credit is based on, marked up to
indicate the amounts for site work still remaining to be done. The unfinished work consists of
final surface course paving, parkway trees, and public sidewalks.
With only the above site improvements remaining to be completed, we are requesting
that the Letter of Credit be amended to reduce the current amount of $365,767.18 to a new
amount of $176,211.53.
A copy of this letter as well as the estimate reduction prepared by our engineer (1G
Consulting) is also being sent to Jim Cainkar and Lynn Stratton.
By copy of this letter we ask that our request for an amended reduced Letter of Credit
be placed on the Village Board agenda at their September 8, 2008 meeting. The current
Letter of Credit for Ashbury Woods Unit 3 expires at the end of this month.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need additional information. Thank
you for your cooperation.
Very truly yours,
Ashbury Woods Development, LLC
