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 property as is dedicated to the City
pursuant to this Development, is 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

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,

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

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.
L. The Developer acknowledges and agrees that the City, as the owner of
any adjacent property (the "City Property") on which off -site improvements may be
constructed, or that may be damaged by the Developer's activities hereunder, expressly
retains (and does not by this Development Agreement waive) its rights as property

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

permitted by law, revoke) such building permits and certificates of occupancy as it
deems necessary to ensure performance in accordance with the terms of this

Agreement or the Memorandum Of Agreement (if any) recorded to give record notice of
this Agreement. The Developer hereby waives any right to object to any such
discrepancy in dates.

F. Street improvements (except curbs, gutters and walks) shall not be installed until
all utility lines to be placed therein have been completely installed, including all individual
lot service lines leading in and from the main to the property line.
G. The installation of all utilities shown on the utility plans 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 utility plans 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
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

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.

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

same, shall cause this indemnity and hold harmless agreement by the Developer to not
apply such claim and such failure shall constitute a release of this indemnity and hold
harmless agreement as to such claim.
