Richard Henderson for Toll Bros.: Originally there was a Covenant on the Cedarmere/Toll Bros. land as surety.
Toll Bros. then posted a bond which has been reduced since work commenced, but still exists. Apparently the
Covenant was never removed/extinguished or whatever needed to be done after the bond was posted — which is
causing problems at every property closing. Henderson preparing a document to deal with this issue. He requested
Board's approval to contact Town Counsel to have Counsel review the document. Target date is to have the
document reviewed and ready for Planning Board members to sign at the January 21, 2015 meeting. Board gave
approval for Henderson to contact Counsel—Administrator to inform Counsel of this.
