General Conditions
A. The terms of this Agreement shall govern all development activities of the
Developer pertaining to the Property. For the purposes of this Agreement,
specific elements of these guarantees are noted in Exhibit "C." Security for the
maintenance guarantee and the repair guarantee shall be as provided in Section
3.3.2(C) of the Land Use Code, or Section 29-14 of the Transitional Land Use
Regulations, as applicable. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs III (G) and (H)
of this Agreement: to the contrary, the obligations of the Developer pursuant to this
paragraph and Exhibit "C" may not be assigned or transferred to any other person or
entity unless the warranted improvements are completed by, and a letter of acceptance
of the warranted improvements is received from the City by, such other person or entity.
III. Miscellaneous
A. The Developer agrees to provide and install, at its expense, adequate
barricades, warning signs and similar safety devices at all construction sites within the
public right-of-way and/or other areas as deemed necessary by the City Engineer and
Traffic Engineer in accordance with the City's "Work Area Traffic Control Handbook"
and shall not remove said safety devices until the construction has been completed.
B. As required pursuant to Chapter 20, Article IV of the City Code, the
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 clean 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 opinion, is hazardous to the public health and welfare.
D. The (Developer shall, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, complete all
improvements and perform all other obligations required herein, as such improvements
or obligations may be shown on the Final Development Plan Documents, or any
documents executed in the future that are required by the City for the approval of an
amendment to a development plan, and the City may withhold (or to the extent
m
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
Development Agreement. The processing and "routing for approval' of the various
development plan documents may result in certain of said documents carrying dates of
approval and/or execution that are later than the date of execution of this Development
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.
E. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a waiver of any
requirements of the City Code, Land Use Code, or Transitional Land Use Regulations
(as applicable) and the Developer agrees to comply with all requirements of the same.
F. In the event the City waives any breach of this Agreement, no such waiver
shall be held or construed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach hereof.

payable after the current fiscal year are contingent upon funds for that purpose being
annually appropriated, budgeted and otherwise made available by the Fort Collins City
Council, in its discretion.

assignment of any portion of the Developer's legal or equitable 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. In the event the Developer transfers title to the Property and is thereby
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
such event, the succeeding property owner shall be bound by the terms of this
Agreement.
J. 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 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
u
Agreement as continuing and require specific performance or; (c) avail itself of any
other remedy at law or equity.
K. In the event of the default of any of the provisions hereof by either party
which shall require the party not in default to commence legal or equitable action
against said defaulting party, the defaulting party shall be liable to the non -defaulting
party for the non -defaulting party's reasonable attorney's fees and costs incurred by
reason of the default. Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent or interfere with the
City's rights and remedies specified in Paragraph III.D of this Agreement.

shall be issued by the City until the public water lines and stubs to each lot, fire
hydrants, sanitary sewer lines and stubs to each lot, and public streets (including curb,
gutter, and pavement with at least the base course completed) serving such structure
have been completed and accepted by the City. No building permits shall be issued for
any structure located in excess of six hundred and sixty feet (660') from a single point of

Poudre Fire Authority.
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

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

2
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. Public easements shall be provided for access, utilities and drainage as

officials and equipment, as approved by the City Engineer.
I. 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 mariner 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 constriction 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.
J. 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.
See Section II.C, Special Conditions, Storm Drainage Lines and Appurtenances, for
specific instructions.
K. The (Developer shall provide the City Engineer with certified Record Plan
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.
L. 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.

completed by the Developer in accordance with said Final Development Plan
Documents prior to the issuance of more than 35 building permits in this Development.
Completion of improvements shall include the certification by a professional engineer
licensed in Colorado that the drainage facilities which serve the Development have
been constructed in conformance with said Final Development Plan Documents. This
certification shall be submitted to the City at least two weeks prior to the date of
issuance of additional building permits.

drainage facilities no longer comply with the approved plans, the City shall give written
notice to the Developer of all items which do not comply with the approved plans.
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 approved

fails to abide by the erosion control provisions of the approved Final Development Plan
Documents or the erosion control provisions of the Criteria after receiving notice of the
same or an emergency situation exists which would reasonably require immediate
mitigation measures, then, in either event, and notwithstanding any provisions
contained in paragraph III(J) to the contrary, the City may enter upon the Property for
the purpose of making such improvements and undertaking such activities as may be
necessary to ensure that the provisions of said plans and the Criteria are properly
enforced. The City may apply such portion of the security deposit(s) as may be
necessary to pay all costs incurred by the City in undertaking the administration,
construction, and/or installation of the erosion control measures required by said plans
and the Criteria. In addition, the City shall have the option to withhold building permits

compliance with the minimum elevation as required on the Final
Development Plan Documents. The certification shall demonstrate as well
that any minor swales adjacent to the building or on the lot have been
graded correctly and in accordance with the grades shown on the Final
Development Plan Documents. The certification shall also show that the

be completed by a Colorado licensed professional engineer and shall be
subnnitted to the City at least two weeks prior to the date of issuance of the
desired certificate of occupancy.
5. The Developer shall obtain the City's prior approval of any changes
from the Final Development Plan Documents in grade elevations and/or storm drainage
facility configuration that occur as a result of the construction of houses and/or
development of lots, whether by the Developer or other parties. The City reserves the
right to withhold the issuance of building permits and certificates of occupancy for this
Development until the City has approved such changes as being acceptable for the safe
and efficient delivery of storm drainage water.

6. The Developer shall limit the construction of the off -site storm
drainage improvement lines to the "limits of development" as delineated on the Final
Development Plan Documents. The Developer shall restore all areas that are disturbed
during construction of the off -site storm drainage improvements in accordance with the
Final Development Plan Documents promptly following the conclusion of the
construction of the off -site drainage improvements. The Developer shall ensure that no
negative impact occurs to the adjoining properties to the Development during the
completion of construction activities associated with this Development. No grading shall
be done outside of the approved areas as shown on the Final Development Plan

approved Final Development Plan Documents for the Rigden Farm 6th Filing. The
design for said portion of Drake Road is a requirement of, and shall be described on,
the Rigden Farm 6th Filing Project Development Plan ("61h Filing"). Said Final
Development Plan Documents for the 6th Filing will soon be completed since the 6th
Filing has heretofore received a decision of approval by Administrative Review in
accordance with Section 2.2.7(D)(1) of the Land Use Code.
3. The Developer shall not be allowed to receive more than 35

1. The City shall not be responsible for, and the Developer, for itself
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
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.
2. If the Development includes a subdrain system, any such subdrain
system, whether located within private property or within public property such as street
rights -of -way or utility or other easements, shall not be owned, operated, maintained,
repaired or reconstructed by the City and it is agreed that all ownership, operation,
maintenance, repair and reconstruction obligations shall be those of the Developer or
the Developer's successor(s) in interest. Such subdrain system is likely to be located
both upon private and public property and, to the extent that it is located on public
property, all maintenance, operation, repair or reconstruction shall be conducted in such
a manner that such public property shall not be damaged, or if damaged, shall, upon
completion of any such project, be repaired in accordance with then existing City
standards. The City shall not be responsible for, and the Developer, for itself 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 the result of groundwater
seepage or flooding, structural damage or other damage resulting from failure of any
such subdrain system.

against it to which the foregoing indemnities and hold harmless agreements 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 the 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 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.
F. Hazards and Emergency Access

be submitted to and approved by the Poudre Fire Authority and City Engineer. (Three
plan sets shall be submitted to the Poudre Fire Authority at 102 Remington Street for
review and processing.) If such accessway is at any time deemed inadequate by the
Poudre Fire Authority or City Engineer, the accessway shall be promptly brought into
compliance and until such time that the accessway is brought into compliance, the City
and/or the Poudre Fire Authority may issue a stop work order for all or part of the
Development.
