What this form is

The amendment converts an existing agreement for construction and future dedication of public improvements into an agreement requiring financial security for unfinished work.

The developer signs before submitting the amendment for approval by the Columbus Board of Public Works & Safety; the form says the board will not accept an amendment that the developer has not signed.
