Hi Michael,
We noted the following deficiencies at our meeting this morn¡ng:
r Erosion at each driveway headwall is evident. The owner will reinstate with rip raplfilter cloth
and repair driveway headwalls as required,. Scouring of the ditch is evident at the outlet of each driveway culvert. These areas are to be
reinstated with filter cloth and rip rap.c The hickenbottom standpipe requires a galvanized steel, hinged cover,o The hickenbottom outlet pipe requires a rodent grate,o Various sections of road side ditch require reinstatement with topsoil and seed.
ln addition, the Township has provided the following comments:
o The rock check dams in the road side ditch are to remain in place,
o The Township is inquiring if it would be possible to pave the driveway aprons into the site as
gravel is constantly being tracked onto the road. They realize that this was not parl of theóriginal site plan works but it would really help them from a maintenance perspective.
Thanks Michaeland please let us know if you have any questions.

Good afternoon Mr. Darlington,
The Township is reviewing the matter with its engineers. Typically the process requires further inspection and verification that the identified deficiencies have been completed prior to the release of the remaining securities.

The model order subcommittee was divided as to whether a general release might be appropriate. On the one hand, the Receiver has presumably reported its activities to the Court, and presumably the reported activities have been approved in prior Orders. Moreover, the Order that appointed the Receiver likely has protections in favour of the Receiver. These factors tend to indicate that a general release of the Receiver is not necessary. On the other hand, the Receiver has acted only in a representative capacity, as the Court's officer, so the Court may find that it is appropriate to insulate the Receiver from all liability, by way of a general release. Some members of the subcommittee felt that, absent a general release, Receivers might hold back funds and/or wish to conduct a claims bar process, which would unnecessarily add time and cost to the receivership. The general release language has been added to this form of model order as an option only, to be considered by the presiding Judge in each specific case. See also Note 1, above.
