The City's right to draw upon or use the security is in addition to any other remedy available to the City.

The City may use the sums provided by the security for completion of the Improvements in accordance with the Improvement Plans. c. In the event that the Subdivider fails to cure any default under this Agreement within twenty (20) days after the City mails written notice of such default to Subdivider and Subdivider's surety, Subdivider authorizes the City to perform the obligations for which Subdivider is in default and agrees to pay the entire cost of such performance by the City.
