Prior to the approval of the final plat or replat of any subdivision
for which improvements are required under the ordinances of the city,
there shall be a subdivision improvements agreement executed by the
developer and the city setting forth the improvements required in

In connection with the contract lien created by a subdivision improvements
agreement, the director of finance of the city shall be authorized
to execute a release of all or any portion of such subdivision from
the lien upon verification by the director of public works that such
release will not impair sufficient security of the city concerning
the required subdivision improvements due to partial or full completion
of the required improvements or due to other applicable consideration.
