After testimony citing missing tests, Coryell commissioners table Twin Caverns Ranch bond releases until Oct. 8

Sep 24, 2024

Commissioners tabled consideration of a full release of the Twin Caverns Ranch phase 1 performance bond ($4,289,713 listed) and a partial release of the phase 2 bond after a detailed public comment alleging missing geotechnical tests and no maintenance bond; staff were directed to meet with engineers and developers and return with a comprehensive plan.

The full story

The court withheld action on requests to release performance bonds for the Twin Caverns Ranch development after residents and staff raised concerns about incomplete testing and remaining construction items. County staff described usual partial releases and listed unfinished work—mail kiosk concrete, end treatments and traffic signs—estimating roughly $103,388 of work remained before transition to a maintenance bond. Bond numbers and amounts were read into the record: a full release was requested for bond #08321185 (listed at $4,289,713) and a partial release for bond #0832198 (listed at about $2,928,253).
