storm drainage facilities in the Development. However, nothing herein shall be deemed
a waiver by the City of its immunities, defenses, and limitations to liability under the
Colorado Governmental Immunity Act (Section 24-20-101 CRS, et. seq.) or under any
other law.

divested of all equitable and legal interest in the Property, the Developer shall be
released from liability under this Agreement with respect to any breach of the terms and
conditions of this Agreement occurring after the date of any such transfer of interest. In

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 given written notice
specifying such default and shall be allowed a period of ten (10) days within which to
cure said default. In the event the default remains uncorrected, the party declaring
default may elect to: (a) terminate the Agreement and seek damages; (b) treat the
Agreement as continuing and require specific performance or; (c) avail itself of any
other remedy at law or equity.

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

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.

See Section II.C, Special Conditions, Storm Drainage Lines and Appurtenances, for
specific instructions.

Transparencies on Black Image Diazo Reverse Mylars upon completion of any phase of
the construction. Utilities will not be initially accepted prior to as -built drawings being
submitted to and approved by the City of Fort Collins.
K. The Developer specifically represents that to the best of its knowledge all
property dedicated (both in fee simple and as easements) to the City associated with
this Development (whether on or off -site) is 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 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
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 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 Mold harmless agreement by the Developer to not apply to such claim
0
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
owner. The Clity's rights as owner may include without limitation those rights
associated with the protection of the City Property from damage, and/or the
enforcement of restrictions, limitations and requirements associated with activities on
the City Property by the Developer as an easement recipient.

drainage facilities no longer comply with the Final Development Plan Documents, the
City shall give written notice to the Developer of all items which do not comply with the
Final Development Plan Documents. Unless the Developer successfully appeals the
decision of non-compliance, it shall bring such facilities back up to the standards and
specifications as shown on the Final Development Plan Documents. Failure to maintain
