C. Storm Drainage Lines and Appurtenances
1. The Developer and the City agree that all on -site and
off -site storm drainage improvements shall be completed by the
Developer in accordance with the approved plans prior to the
issuance of more than 5 building permits. Completion of
improvements shall include the certification by a licensed
professional engineer that the drainage facilities which serve this
development have been constructed in conformance with said approved
plans.

2. The Developer agrees to provide and maintain erosion
control improvements as shown on the approved utility plans to
stabilize all over -lot grading in and adjacent to this development.
The Developer shall also be required to post a security deposit in
the amount of $ 4,937.00 prior to beginning construction to
guarantee the proper installation and maintenance of the erosion
control measures shown on the approved Plan. Said security deposit
shall be made in accordance with the criteria set forth in the
Storm Drainage Design Criteria and Construction Standards.
3. The Developer and the City agree that the storm
drainage system for this development contains some features that
make it important to construct the facilities in accordance with
the plans and to ensure that the facilities are maintained and kept
operational throughout the buildout of this development. For this
reason the following additional requirements shall be followed for
building on Lots 2 through 17:
The drainage improvement system required to be constructed on
the above Lots shall be completed in accordance with the
approved utility plans and said completion shall be certified
as being in accordance with said plans by a licensed
professional engineer: Said certification shall be received
by the City prior to the issuance of a building permit for any
of the above lots. A certification by such engineer that the
drainage system's function and adequacy to serve its purpose
has not been impaired by the construction and landscaping on
said lot shall be submitted to the City prior to the issuance
of a certificate of occupancy for each of the above lots.
In addition, the Developer shall be required to file a notice
with the Larimer County Clerk and Recorder describing the
landscaping and fencing restrictions that exist for the
drainage easements on each of said lots. Said notice shall
reference the location of the specific restrictions shown on
plans and notes in the approved utility plans for this
development. Said notice shall be filed in a City approved
form prior to the sale of any lots affected by such
restrictions.
4. Lots 6 and 7 abut certain storm drainage facilities and it
is agreed that it is of the utmost importance that no stormwater
from said facilities enters houses built on said lots. In order to
provide the assurance that houses built on said lots are
constructed at an elevation that said stormwater cannot enter, the
approved utility plans contain specifications for the minimum
elevation f= any opening to each such house. Prior to the
issuance of a certificate of occupancy for each of said lots, the
Developer shall provide certification from a licensed professional
engineer that the lowest opening to any such house is at or above
the minimum elevations required on said utility plans.

5. The Developer and the City agree that prior to the
issuance of more than 15 building permits the low -flow trickle pan
in the on -site detention pond shall be completed in accordance with
the approved utility plans and said completion shall be certified
as being in accordance with said plans by a licensed professional
engineer.
D. Streets.
1. Subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the City
agrees to reimburse the Developer for oversizing public street
improvements along Vine Drive for those portions of said street
abutting the Property as shown on the approved utility plans.
Reimbursement for Vine Drive shall be for oversizing the public
street from residential standards to collector standards and for
oversizing the public sidewalk from residential standards to
arterial standards. The City shall make reimbursement to the
Developer for the aforesaid oversized street improvements in
accordance with Section 24-121 of the Code of the City. The
Developer agrees and understands that the City shall have no
obligation to make reimbursement payments for street oversizing
unless funds for such payments shall first have been budgeted and
appropriated from the Street Oversizing Fund by the City Council;
and the Developer further understands that to the extent that funds
are not available for such reimbursement, the City may not, in the
absence of the= Developer's agreement, require the construction, at
the Developer's expense, of any oversized portion of streets not
reasonably necessary to offset the traffic impacts of the
development. The Developer does hereby agree to construct the
aforesaid oversized street improvements with the understanding that
the Developer may not be fully reimbursed by the City for the cost
of such construction. The Developer further agrees to accept
payment in accordance with Section 24-121 (d) of the Code of the
City as full and final settlement and complete accord and
satisfaction of all obligations of the City to make reimbursements
to the Developer for street oversizing expenses. It is anticipated
by the City that the City's reimbursement, in accordance with
Section 24-121 (d), would not be less than fifty percent (501) of
the Developer's actual expenses incurred and will be calculated in
accordance with the formula as set forth in Section 24-121 (d).
2. It is understood that the streets to be constructed
as described in this Section II(D) are "city improvements" and, as
such, any contract for the construction of the same must be
executed in writing. If the cost of such improvements exceeds the
sum of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000), the contract for the
construction of the same must be submitted to a competitive bidding
process resulting in an award to the lowest responsible bidder; and
evidence must be submitted to the City prior to the commencement of
the work showing that the award was given to the lowest responsible
9
bidder. If the cost of such improvements exceeds fifty thousand
($50,000), the contract for the construction of the improvements
must be insured by a performance bond or other equivalent security.
E. Previous Development Agreement
1. The Devloper and the City agree that the previous
development agreement for the Replat of Poudre Plains Subdivision
titled "Development Agreement and dated March 28, 1988 is hereby
superceded by this agreement and hereby declared void.

Control Handbook" and shall not remove said safety devices until
the construct --on has been completed and approved by the Director of
Engineering.

by the Developer's operation; shall remove such rubbish no less
than weekly 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. 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 Director of
Engineering. 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.

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.

or water) is likely to be a problem, the surface area of erodible
earth material exposed at any one time shall not exceed 200,000
square feet for earthworks operations. Temporary or permanent
erosion control shall be incorporated into the development at the
earliest practicable time. By way of explanation and without

withhold such building permits and certificates of occupancy as it
deems necessary to ensure performance hereof.

any requirements of the City Code, and the Developer agrees to
comply with all requirements of the same.

no such waiver shall be held or construed to be a waiver of any
subsequent breach hereof.
