ninety (90) days after the City first receives a notice of such claim under the Colorado
Governmental Imimunity 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

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 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.

development until the City has approved such changes as being acceptable for the safe
and efficient delivery of storm drainage water.

failure to properly maintain its storm drainage facilities in the 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

the proposed city !recreational trail adjacent to the site and the associated bridge structure.
Since the proposed city trail has not been constructed offsite of this development and since
the city does not have monies at this time to participate in the oversizing of the trail
adjacent to the site, the Developer and the City agree that the Developer shall escrow
$4,974.05 for the recreational trail and associated bridge structure prior to issuance of any
building permits. (The escrow amount is based on a per lot fee for the recreational trail

Developer shall, at all times, keep the public right-of-way free from accumulation of waste
material, rubbish, or building materials caused by the Developer's operation, or the
activities of individual builders and/or subcontractors; shall remove such rubbish as often
as necessary, but: no less than daily and, at the completion of the work, shall remove all
such waste materials, rubbish, tools, construction equipment, machinery, and surplus
materials from the public right-of-way. The Developer further agrees to maintain the
finished street surfaces so that they are free from dirt caused by the Developer's operation
or as a result of building activity. 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 City
Engineer. 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 the Developer shall be responsible for prompt payment of all such costs. The
Developer also agrees to require all contractors within the development to keep the public
right-of-way clear and free from accumulation of dirt, rubbish, and building materials.
C. The Developer hereby agrees that it will require its contractors and
subcontractors to cooperate with the City's construction inspectors by ceasing operations
when winds are of sufficient velocity to create blowing dust which, in the inspector's
