ESCROW AND PARTIAL RELEASE AGREEMENT
CONCERNING HALFMOON AVENUE NW
TIFFIN HEIGHTS WEST
TIFFIN, IOWA
This Escrow and Partial Release Agreement is made between the City of Tiffin, Iowa, a municipal
corporation (“the City”), and GHS Development, Inc., (“Developer”) as Owner and/or Subdivider
of Tiffin Heights West, Tiffin, Iowa.
IN CONSIDERATION OF THE MUTUAL PROMISES CONTAINED HEREIN, THE PARTIES
AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. That by reason of the Developer’s Agreement for Tiffin Heights West, Tiffin, Iowa, by and
between the City and Developer, dated July 24, 2024, and recorded in the Johnson County
Recorder's Office on September 9, 2024 in Book 6593, Pages 825 (“Developer’s
Agreement”), Developer is obligated to pave Halfmoon Avenue NW to the northerly
terminus of Coquina Avenue as a benefit to the subdivision as more particularly set forth in
Section 3(C)(10) of the Developer’s Agreement (the “Halfmoon Avenue NW Paving”).
The parties further acknowledge that this obligation is deemed a covenant running with the
land and with title to the land.
2. That Developer has obtained a bid from Streb Construction Co., Inc., to complete the
Halfmoon Avenue NW Paving, in the amount of $67,950.00 (“Bid Amount”), a copy of
which has been provided to the City.
3. The Parties acknowledge that, since the Halfmoon Avenue NW Paving is not yet complete,
a final release regarding the same by the City is not yet appropriate. For this reason, the
Developer’s Agreement constitutes a lien and cloud on the property described above.
4. That GHS Development, Inc. has made an $81,540.00 cash payment in escrow with the City
for said subdivision (“Paving Escrow”), and said Paving Escrow is 120% of the Bid
