and development plans for Suburban Estates Subdivision as prepared
by William G. Wallace Inc.' Several recommended changes to--the _
plat were, discussed directly with engineers and these changes, have
been made. The .proposed construction indicated on the .development
plans conforms to the. appropriate ordinances.of the Village of
North Palm Beach and it is therefore.re~ommended that-this .plat
and development-plans be approved. It is.-our understanding that
the-work will be constructed prior to the filing of .the plat.
eliminating the necessity of .posting-of'a per3:ormance bond or`;
an escrow account as required by the ordinance.. _
If we can be of further assistance,.pn this matter, please....

Very truly yours,
