The estimated costs of completing the specific required improvements secured by this letter of credit are:

Required improvements	Estimated cost[s]

However, it is expressly understood that no draft may be drawn against IRREVOCABLE LETTER OF CREDIT 1234 for a default or failure to install any portion of the required improvements, unless the draft is accompanied by the Planning Commission Engineer’s verified certificate providing the following:

a. A specific listing of those portions or items of the required improvements that remain unfinished; and

Partial releases shall be given, if at all, in the sole discretion of the Planning Commission. Such partial releases shall reduce the principal amount available to secure the installation of the remaining required improvements.
