certificate of occupancy.
5. Lots 1 through 7 abut certain storm drainage
facilities and it is agreed that it is of the utmost importance
that no storm water from said facilities enters houses built on

said lots are constructed at an elevation that said storm water
cannot enter, the approved utility plans contain specifications for
the minimum elevation for any opening to each such house. Prior to
the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for each of said lots
the Developer- shall provide certification from a licensed
professional engineer that the lowest opening to any such house is
at or above the minimum elevations required on said utility plans.

shall be responsible to obtain the City's approval of any changes
from the approved utility plans in grade elevations and/or storm
drainage facility configuration that occur as a result of the

withhold the issuance of building permits and certificates of
occupancies until the City has approved such changes as being
acceptable for the safe and efficient delivery of storm drainage

1. Subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the City
agrees to reimburse the Developer for oversizing public street
improvements along Harmony Road for those portions of said street
abutting the Property as shown on the approved utility plans.

from residential (access) standards to major arterial street
standards. The City shall make reimbursement to the Developer for
the aforesaid oversized street improvements in accordance with
Section 24-121. of the Code of the City. The Developer agrees and
understands that the City shall have no obligation to make
reimbursement payments for street oversizing unless funds for such
payments shall. first have been budgeted and appropriated from the
Street Oversizing Fund by the City Council; and the Developer
further understands that to the extent that funds are not available
for such reimbursement, the City may not, in the absence of the
Developer's agreement, require the construction, at the Developer's
expense, of any oversized portion of streets not reasonably
necessary to offset the traffic impacts of the development. The
Developer does hereby agree to construct the aforesaid oversized
street improvements with the understanding that the Developer may
not be fully reimbursed by the City for the cost of such
construction. The Developer further agrees to accept payment in
accordance with Section 24-121 (d) of the Code of the City as full
and final settlement and complete accord and satisfaction of all
obligations of the City to make reimbursements to the Developer for
street oversizing expenses. It is anticipated by the City that the
City's reimbursement, in accordance with Section 24-121 (d), would
not be less than fifty percent (500) of the Developer's actual
expenses incurred and will be calculated in accordance with the
formula as set: forth in Section 24-121 (d).
2. It is understood that the streets to be constructed
as described in this Section II(D) are "city improvements" and, as
such, any contract for the construction of the same must be
executed in writing. If the cost of such improvements exceeds the
sum of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000), the contract for the
construction of the same must be submitted to a competitive bidding
process resulting in an award to the lowest responsible bidder; and
evidence must be submitted to the City prior to the commencement of
N
the work showing that the award was given to the lowest responsible
bidder. If the cost of such improvements exceeds fifty thousand
dollars ($50,000), the contract for the construction of the
improvements must be insured by a performance bond or other
equivalent security.
3. No building permits shall be issued for lots 1, 63,
65 through 67 and 84 (all of which lots are in close proximity to
Harmony Road and, accordingly, may be impacted by improvements
required on Harmony Road) until the street improvements on Harmony
Road have been completed with at least the construction of curb,
gutter and sidewalk, and said improvements have been approved by
the City.
4. No building permits shall be issued for Lots 5
through 7, 85, 94 and 129, if access to such Lots is taken from
deadend streets with no standard permanent cul de sac or City
approved temporary turnaround.
5. The Developer shall be responsible for all costs for
the initial installation of traffic signing and striping for this
development related to the development local street operations. In
addition the Developer shall be responsible for all costs for
traffic signing and striping related to directing traffic access to
and from the development (eg. all signing and striping for a right
turn lane into the development site).
E. Phasing of this Development.
1. This Agreement applies only to Phase 1 of this
development. Another development agreement shall be entered into
between the parties prior to the Developer beginning construction
of any improvement outside of Phase 1 of this development. In
addition, the approved utility plans are only approved for Phase 1

remainder of the Property prior to the Developer beginning
construction of any improvements outside of Phase 1 of this
development.

machinery, and surplus materials from the public right-of-way. The
Developer further agrees to maintain the finished street surfaces

operation. Any excessive accumulation of dirt and/or construction
materials shall be considered sufficient cause for the City to
withhold building permits and/or certificates of occupancy until
the problem is corrected to the satisfaction of the Director of
Engineering. If the Developer fails to adequately clean such
streets within two (2) days after receipt of written notice, the
City may have the streets cleaned at the Developer's expense and

9
proprietary interest in the Property, as well as any assignment of
the Developer's rights to develop the Property under the terms and
conditions of this Agreement.
I. Each and every term of this Agreement shall be deemed to
be a material element hereof. In the event that either party shall
fail to perform according to the terms of this Agreement, such
party may be declared in default. In the event that a party has
been declared in default hereof, such defaulting party shall be
