D. Any water lines, sanitary sewer lines, storm drainage lines, and/or streets
described on Exhibit 'A," attached hereto, shall be installed within the time and/or
sequence required on Exhibit "A." If the City Engineer has determined that any water
lines, sanitary sewer lines, storm drainage facilities and/or streets are required to
provide service or access to other areas of the City, those facilities shall be shown on
the utility plans and shall be installed by the Developer within the time as established
under "Special Conditions" in this document.
E. Except as otherwise herein specifically agreed, the Developer agrees to
install and pay for all water, sanitary sewer, and storm drainage facilities and
appurtenances, and all streets, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, bikeways and other public
improvements required by this Development as shown on the Final Development Plan
Documents and other approved documents pertaining to this Development on file with

G. The installation of all utilities shown on the Final Development Plan
Documents shall be inspected by the Engineering Department of the City and shall be
subject to such department's approval. The Developer agrees to correct any
deficiencies in such installations in order to meet the requirements of the plans and/or
specifications applicable to such installation. In case of conflict, the Final Development
Plan Documents shall supersede the standard specifications.
H. All storm drainage facilities shall be so designed and constructed by the
Developer as to protect downstream and adjacent properties against injury and to
adequately serve the Property (and other lands as may be required, if any). The
Developer shall meet or exceed the minimum requirements for storm drainage facilities
as have been established by the City in its Drainage Master Plans and Design Criteria.
The Developer, for itself and its successor(s) in interest, does hereby indemnify and
hold harmless the City from any and all claims that might arise, directly or indirectly, as
a result of the discharge of injurious storm drainage or seepage waters from the
Property in a manner or quantity different from that which was historically discharged
and caused by the design or construction of the storm drainage facilities, except for (1)
such claims and damages as are caused by the acts or omissions of the City in
maintenance of such facilities as have been accepted by the City for maintenance; (2)
errors, if any, in the general concept of the City's master plans (but not to include any
details of such plans, which details shall be the responsibility of the Developer); and (3)
specific written or otherwise documented directives that may be given to the Developer
by the City. The City agrees to give notice to the Developer of any claim made against
it to which this indemnity and hold harmless agreement by the Developer could apply,
and the Developer shall have the right to defend any lawsuit based on such claim and to
settle any such claim provided Developer must obtain a complete discharge of all City
liability through such settlement. Failure of the City to give notice of any such claim to
the Developer within ninety (90) days after the City first receives a notice of such claim
under the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act for the same, shall cause this indemnity
and hold harmless agreement by the Developer to not apply to such claim and such
failure shall constitute a release of this indemnity and hold harmless agreement as to
such claim. Approval of and acceptance by the City of any storm drainage facility
design or construction shall in no manner be deemed to constitute a waiver or
relinquishment by the City of the aforesaid indemnification. The Developer shall engage
a Colorado licensed professional engineer to design the storm drainage facilities as
aforesaid and it is expressly affirmed hereby that such engagement shall be intended
for the benefit of the City, and subsequent purchasers of property in the Development.
I. The Developer shall pay storm drainage basin fees in accordance with
Chapter 26, Article VII of the City Code. Storm drainage improvements eligible for
credit or City repayment under the provisions of Chapter 26 are described together with
the estimated cost of the improvements on the attached Exhibit "B," which
improvements, if applicable, shall include right-of-way, design and construction costs.

K. The Developer specifically represents that to the best of its knowledge all
portions of the Property dedicated (both in fee simple and as easements) to the City
associated with this Development are in compliance with all environmental protection
and anti -pollution laws, rules, regulations, orders or requirements, including solid waste
requirements, as defined by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency Regulations at
40 C.F.R., Part 261, and that such portions of the Property as are dedicated to the City
pursuant to this Development, are in compliance with all such requirements pertaining
to the disposal or existence in or on such dedicated property of any hazardous
substances, pollutants or contaminants, as defined by the Comprehensive
Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, and
regulations promulgated thereunder. The Developer, for itself and its successor(s) in
interest, does hereby indemnify and hold harmless the City from any liability whatsoever
that may be imposed upon the City by any governmental authority or any third party,
pertaining to the disposal of hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants, and
cleanup necessitated by leaking underground storage tanks, excavation and/or backfill
of hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants, or environmental cleanup
responsibilities of any nature whatsoever on, of, or related to any property dedicated to
the City in connection with this Development, provided that such damages or liability are
not caused by circumstances arising entirely after the date of acceptance by the City of
the public improvements constructed on the dedicated property, except to the extent
that such circumstances are the result of acts or omissions of the Developer. Said
indemnification shall not extend to claims, actions or other liability arising as a result of
any hazardous substance, pollutant or contaminant generated or deposited by the City,
its agents or representatives, upon portions of the Property dedicated to the City in
connection with this Development. The City agrees to give notice to the Developer of
any claim made against it to which this indemnity and hold harmless agreement by the
Developer could apply, and the Developer shall have the right to defend any lawsuit
based on such claim and to settle any such claim provided Developer must obtain a
complete discharge of all City liability through such settlement. Failure of the City to
give notice of any such claim to the Developer within ninety (90) days after the City first
receives a notice of such claim under the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act for the
same, shall cause this indemnity and hold harmless agreement by the Developer to not
apply to such claim and such failure shall constitute a release of this indemnity and hold
harmless agreement as to such claim.

and its successor(s) in interest) hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the City
against, any damages or injuries sustained in the Development as a result of ground
water seepage or flooding, structural damage, or other damage unless such damages
or injuries are proximately caused by the City's negligent operation or maintenance of its
storm drainage facilities in the Development. However, nothing herein shall be deemed

complete discharge of all City liability through such settlement. Failure of the City to
give notice of any such claim to the Developer within ninety (90) days after the City first
receives notice of such claim under the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act for the
same, shall cause the forgoing indemnities and hold harmless agreements by the
Developer to not apply to such claim and such failure shall constitute a release of the
foregoing indemnities and hold harmless agreements as to such claim.
