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
RECEPTION#20230001905, 1/17/2023 8:35:35 AM,4 of 32,$168.00
Angela Myers,Clerk&Recorder,Larimer County,CO
DocuSlgn Envelope ID:93E8BE48-CBDA-4851-983F-5CBF71756661
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. No language in this Paragraph
shall be construed or interpreted as establishing in any way the City's liability for any act
or omission and the terms of this Paragraph solely relate to the Developer's obligation to
indemnify and hold harmless 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.
L. The Developer shall pay the applicable "stormwater plant investment fee" in
accordance with Chapter 26, Article VII of the Code of the City of Fort Collins (the "City
Code"). This fee is included with building permit fees and shall be paid prior to the
issuance of each building permit.
M. The Developer shall provide the City Engineer with certified Record Plan
Transparencies on Black Image Diazo Reverse Mylars upon completion of each 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.
N. The Developer specifically represents that to 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
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 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.
O. 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 Agreement waive) its rights as property owner. The City's
rights as owner of the City Property 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.
P. If the Developer or contractor or any agent or representative thereof causes
damage to any public infrastructure (including without limitation, any surface pavers,
flagstones, or other stone or concrete surfaces, planters, street and decorative lights, or
canopies) such damage shall be promptly repaired with the same kind, quality, color,
serviceability and material composition aspects as was possessed by the infrastructure
damaged, unless otherwise expressly agreed to by the City in writing.

C. Storm Drainage Lines and Appurtenances.
1. The Developer agrees to provide and maintain erosion and sediment
control improvements as shown on the Final Development Plan Documents until all
disturbed areas in and adjacent to this Development's construction activities are
stabilized. The Developer shall also be required to post a security deposit for each phase
of construction. The amount of the security deposit required for each phase is shown in
the Final Development Plan Documents. The security deposit for each phase shall be
deposited prior to beginning construction on such phase, respectively, to guarantee the
proper installation and maintenance and, upon completion, removal of the erosion and
sediment control measures shown on the Final Development Plan Documents for such
phase. Said security deposit(s) shall be made in accordance with the criteria set forth in
the Stormwater Criteria Manual("Criteria") referenced in City Code § 26-500. When said
security deposit(s) is a letter of credit or a bond the Developer shall replace the security
no later than 30 days before its expiration date. If the security posted by Developer is a
Letter of Credit, and such letter has not been replaced or renewed within 30 days of its
expiration date, the City may elect to draw and hold the funds as it sees fit. The City shall
have the option in any case to also withhold building permits and certificates of
occupancy, as stated in Paragraph III.D of this Agreement, as it deems necessary in order
to ensure that at all times the Developer is maintaining appropriate levels of security to
guarantee completion of the erosion and sediment control improvements. If, at any time,
the Developer fails to abide by the erosion control provisions of the 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, installation,
maintenance, and/or removal of the erosion control measures required by said plans and
the Criteria. In addition, the City shall have the option to withhold building permits and
certificates of occupancy, as stated in Paragraph III.D of this Agreement, as it deems
necessary in order to ensure that the Developer installs, maintains, and ultimately
removes the erosion and sediment control measures throughout the build-out of this
Development. Upon stabilization of all the disturbed areas in each phase, and upon the
request of the Developer, the City will confirm that the phase is stabilized from potential
erosion and sediment control discharges from construction activities and that all
RECEPTION#20230001905, 1/17/2023 8:35:35 AM,7 of 32,$168.00
Angela Myers,Clerk&Recorder,Larimer County,CO
DocuSign Envelope ID:93E8BE48-CBDA-4851-983F-5CBF71756661
temporary erosion and sediment control measures from the phase by the Developer are
removed. In confirmation by the City that a phase is stabilized, any remaining portions of
the security deposit from that respective phase that is associated with the adequate
maintenance of erosion and sediment control improvements shall be returned. The
Developer further agrees that construction in any future phase shall not commence until
the Developer has corrected any potential or actual erosion, sedimentation, and/or
pollution violations. When identified, any violation of applicable laws, regulations, or
policies regarding erosion and sediment control must be corrected immediately per Part
I.D.8 of the Developer's Colorado Discharge Permit System ("CDPS") Permit for
Stormwater Discharges Associated with Construction Activity as required by the Colorado
Department of Public Health and Environment("CDPHE")and City Code§26-498, Water
Quality Control. If no CDPS Permit is required, violations of any applicable laws,
regulations, or policies regarding erosion and sediment control are to be corrected
immediately as required by the CDPHE and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
in accordance with the Clean Water Act, and City Code § 26-498, Water Quality Control.
2. All on-site and off-site storm drainage improvements associated with
this Development, as shown on the Final Development Plan Documents, shall be
completed by the Developer in accordance with said Documents prior to the issuance of
more than fifty (50) 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. Additionally on-site certification shall
provide documentation that the open space areas that are part of this Development, have
been graded in a manner consistent with the approved Final Development Plan
Documents. All lot corner elevations for lots adjacent to open space areas shall be
certified to be in conformance with the approved Final Development Plan documents.
This certification shall be submitted to the City for review and acceptance at least two
weeks prior to the date of issuance of additional building permits.
3. For private permanent water quality improvements located on private
property associated with this Development (the "Private Water Quality Improvements"),
on-site inspection by a City Inspector is required to verify the proper installation of such
improvements at different stages of construction as specified in the "Overall Site and
Drainage Certification"form. In the event of non-compliance,the City Inspector shall have
the option to withhold building permits and/or certificates of occupancy, until such non-
compliance has been corrected by Developer. In addition, the City may avail itself of any
other legal remedy that may be provided in the City Code, the Fort Collins Land Use Code
("Land Use Code") and/or this Development Agreement, as deemed necessary in order
to ensure that the Developer or its successor(s) in interest properly installs and maintains
the Private Water Quality Improvements as specified in the Final Development Plan
Documents.
4. The Developer shall be responsible for maintaining the structural
integrity and operational function of all drainage facilities constructed as part of this
Development including, but not limited to, all drainage facilities and water quality features,
RECEPTION#20230001905, 1/17/2023 8:35:35 AM,8 of 32,$168.00
Angela Myers,Clerk&Recorder,Larimer County,CO
DocuSign Envelope ID:93E8BE48-CBDA-4851-983F-5CBF71756661
extended detention water quality basins, bioretention facilities and/or permeable
pavement systems. These drainage facilities and/or features must be maintained in their
original operational integrity throughout the build-out of this Development, following the
completion of the construction of said facilities and features, and after acceptance of said
facilities and features as certified to the City. If at any time following construction and
certification (as required pursuant to Paragraph II.C.2 above) or during the construction
of additional structures and/or lots within this Development, the City determines that said
drainage facilities and features no longer comply with the Final Development Plan
Documents, the City must give written notice to the Developer of all items that do not
comply with the Final Development Plan Documents and request the restoration of the
drainage facilities and features back to the function, standards and specifications
designed and specified in the Final Development Plan Documents. Failure to maintain
the structural integrity and operational function of said drainage facilities and features
following certification will result in the withholding of the issuance of additional building
permits and/or certificates of occupancy and, in addition, the City may avail itself of any
other legal remedy that may be provided in the City Code, the Land Use Code and/or this
Development Agreement until said drainage facilities and water quality features are
repaired and restored to the physical characteristics, operational function and structural
integrity originally specified in the Final Development Plan Documents approved by the
City for this Development.
5. It is important that all lots be graded to drain in the configuration
shown on the Final Development Plan Documents. For this reason the following
requirements shall be followed for all buildings/structures on all lots:
Prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for any lot or building the
Developer shall provide the City with certification that the lot and or the building has been
graded correctly. This grading certification shall demonstrate that the lot or building finish
floor elevation has been built in accordance with the elevation specified on the Final
Development Plan Documents. The certification shall also show that the minimum floor
elevation or minimum opening elevation for any building constructed is in 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 elevations
of all comers of the lot are in accordance with the elevations shown on the Final
Development Plan Documents. Said certification shall be completed by a Colorado
licensed professional engineer and shall be submitted to the City at least two weeks prior
to the requested date of issuance of the applicable certificate of occupancy.
6. 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 others. The City reserves the right to
withhold the issuance of building permits and certificates of occupancy for this
RECEPTION#20230001905, 1/17/2023 8:35:35 AM,9 of 32,$168.00
Angela Myers,Clerk&Recorder,Larimer County,CO
DocuSign Envelope ID:93E8BE48-CBDA-4851-983F-5CBF71756661
Development until the City has deemed such changes as being acceptable for the safe
and efficient delivery of storm drainage water.
7. The Developer shall limit the construction of the off-site storm
drainage improvements to the limits of construction as shown on the Final Development
Plan Documents. The Developer shall re-seed and/or 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 construction. The Developer shall
ensure that no negative impact occurs to the adjoining properties during the construction
of these facilities. No grading shall be done outside of the approved areas as shown on
the Final Development Plan Documents.
8. The drainage design for this Development provides for the
evacuation of storm drainage runoff in a reasonable amount of time out of the water
quality and detention facilities and into the drainage outfall system. The water quality and
detention facilities have been designed to discharge stormwater runoff from frequent
storms over a 40-hour period through a small diameter outlet. Under the intended
operation of the water quality and detention pond, there will not be standing water in the
pond more than 48 hours after the end of a rainfall event. If after construction and
acceptance of the detention facilities associated with this Development, surfacing or
standing water conditions persist in these facilities; and if such conditions are beyond
what can be expected in accordance with the approved stormwater design, the Developer
shall promptly, upon such discovery, install an adequate de-watering system in the
detention facilities. Such a system shall be reviewed and approved by the City prior to
installation.
9. The Developer shall be responsible for maintenance of all storm
drainage facilities not identified as public in the Final Development Plan Documents per
the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) contained in Exhibit C, attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference.
D. Streets
1. Subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the City agrees to
reimburse the Developer for oversizing public street improvements along Timberline
Road for those portions of said street abutting the Property as shown on the Final
Development Plan Documents. Reimbursement for Timberline Road shall be for
increasing the sidewalk width from local access standards to minor arterial standards
north of Crested Lark Street and for the cost of the right-of-way necessary to
accommodate the expansion of such sidewalk. The City shall make reimbursement to the
Developer for the aforesaid oversized street improvements in the manner provided in and
in accordance with City Code Section 24-112. As identified in the City Code, the City
shall not participate in the cost of transportation improvements required solely for the
special use and benefit of the Development, required by the transportation impact study
for the Development, or required by the City Traffic Engineer. The Developer
acknowledges that the City shall have no obligation to make reimbursement payments
RECEPTION#20230001905, 1/17/2023 8:35:35 AM,10 of 32,$168.00
Angela Myers,Clerk&Recorder,Larimer County,CO
DocuSign Envelope ID:93E8BE48-CBDA4851-983F-5CBF71756661
for street oversizing unless funds for such payments are budgeted and appropriated from
the transportation improvements fund by the City Council. 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
portions 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 if sufficient funds are not
appropriated. The Developer further agrees to accept payment in accordance with City
Code Section 24-112(d) of the 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.
2. It is understood that the improvements that are to be constructed in
the public right-of-way as described in this Section II.D are "City improvements" (as
defined below) 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 Sixty Thousand
Dollars ($60,000), 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 bidder. If the cost of such
improvements exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), the contract for the
construction of the improvements must be insured by a performance bond or other
equivalent security. For purposes of this Paragraph, the term "City improvements" shall
mean either (1) existing improvements owned by the City that are to be modified or
reconstructed, or (2) any improvements funded in whole or in part by the City.
3. In accordance with Section 24-95 of the City Code the Developer is
responsible for constructing the portion of Timberline Road adjacent to the site prior to
the issuance of the first building permit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Developer
has designed the project so that the local curb, gutter, pavement, sidewalk and parkway
for Timberline Road south of Crested Lark Street, and the local curb, gutter, pavement,
and parkway for Timberline Road north of Crested Lark Street, will be postponed by
delivering to the City a cash deposit sufficient to guarantee completion of the design and
construction of the improvements. The amount of said funds shall be the estimated cost
of the removal of the interim improvements in the right-of-way plus the City adopted Local
Street Cost for the year in which the payment is made. The Local Street Cost is a per
linear foot cost estimate prepared yearly and approved by the City for the cost to install
the local street portion of a roadway. The estimate includes, but is not limited to, the cost
of the pavement and subgrade, curb, gutter and 4.5 feet (in width) of sidewalk, and the
parkway landscaping. The Developer acknowledges that the updated LCUASS
standards require 5-foot sidewalk widths for local streets, and the estimate is not intended
to modify that requirement. The removal estimate shall be prepared by the Developer
and approved by the City, plus an additional 25% of the estimate to cover any
contingencies and unexpected costs. The total of the Local Street Cost and removal
RECEPTION#20230001905, 1/17/2023 8:35:35 AM,11 of 32,$168.00
Angela Myers,Clerk&Recorder,Larimer County,CO
DocuSign Envelope ID:93E8BE48-CBDA-4851-983F-5CBF71756661
costs shall be deposited with the City prior to the issuance of any building permit for this
Development.
a. The improvements to Timberline Road shall be constructed at
such time that the City deems the improvements to be
necessary or at such time as improvements are made to
adjacent portions of Timberline Road, whichever shall first
occur; provided, however, that the City shall not withhold
building permits or certificates of occupancy on account of
such improvements not having been completed so long as the
Developer timely commences and completes the construction
of the remaining street portion as provided herein and has
made the substitutionary payment described above.
b. Any interest earned by the City as a result of said deposit shall
belong to the City.
C. If the Developer is the party that constructs, or causes the
construction of, said improvements, upon completion and
acceptance of said improvements by the City, the City shall
return to the Developer the amount deposited, less 3% of the
total amount remaining. The 3% to be retained by the City is

DocuSlgn Envelope ID:93E8BE48-CBDA-4851-983F-5CBF71756661
Regulations shall be met and maintained both prior to and
after issuance of the Encroachment Permit. The
Encroachment Permit, which is non-transferable, is issued to
the property owner or to the lessee of the property (with the
property owners consent) in which the encroachment is
adjacent to or benefits and the Developer understands that at
such time as ownership of that parcel changes and/or a new
lessee exists (as applicable) a new encroachment permit will
need to be applied for and new liability insurance will need to
be provided by the property owner. The permit is revocable
pursuant to the Encroachment Regulations.
b. The Developer, for itself and its successor(s) in interest, does
hereby release and hold harmless the City from any damages
to the encroachment arising from the City's actions in
maintaining, repairing and/or replacing the public
infrastructure including utilities, except as caused by the City's
gross negligence or willful misconduct.
C. The City shall have no responsibility for the installation and
maintenance of any encroachment and 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 Developer's
installation or maintenance of any encroachments onto the
public right-of-way.
d. Only public utilities (defined as utilities owned and maintained
by the City and gas utilities owned by Xcel Energy) or utility
providers that have a franchise agreement with the City are
allowed to be installed and located within public rights-of-way
and public easements. Private utilities are allowed to cross
public rights-of-way and easements provided that the crossing
is perpendicular to the public right-of-way or easement, that
sleeves are provided for the crossing in accordance with City
standards, encroachment permits for such crossing are
obtained, and the utility is registered with the utility locate
center. Any private utilities found within public rights-of-way
or easements not meeting the above criteria serving the
Property shall be required to be removed by the Developer at
the Developer's expense or apply for and obtain an approved
Encroachment Permit. All sleeves across the right-of-way

Regulations will control. The Developer acknowledges that,
as with any regulation, the Encroachment Regulations are
subject to change and Developer agrees to abide by any
changes to the Encroachment Regulations.

defined by Land Use Code§5.1.2 and §3.4.1(N), around existing trees and the Red-tailed
hawk nest that are to be undisturbed, with orange construction fence prior to any type of
construction, including overlot grading.
3. Should the Developer be in violation of the conditions of the required
temporary LOD, this could be considered a criminal misdemeanor per Chapter 1, Section
15 of the City Code. A stop-work order may be issued until the City's Environmental
Planner determines construction impacts have been fully mitigated.
F. Forestry
1. A Street Tree Permit must be obtained from the City Forester
pursuant to City Code Chapter 27, Art. II, Division 2, before any trees noted on the Final
Development Plan Documents are planted or pruned on, or removed from, any public

obtains a Street Tree Permit and the planting, pruning, and removal of trees or shrubs on
or from the public right-of-way or City property is in compliance with the Street Tree Permit
and Final Development Plan Documents. In addition to withholding any certificate of
occupancy, the City may avail itself of any other legal remedy provided by law for the
failure to obtain a Street Tree Permit. As a condition of the Street Tree Permit and of this
Agreement, at least one week prior to planting any trees the Developer shall: (1) allow
City Forestry Division staff to inspect the proposed planting sites to review compliance
with the Final Development Plan Documents and applicable regulations; and (2) allow
City Forestry Division staff to inspect and approve, at the nursery if possible, all trees to

meet the Forestry Divisions standards.
2. All tree pruning and removal on the Property must be done by an
arborist licensed by the City of Fort Collins and the name of such arborist shall be
provided to the City Forestry Division prior to any pruning or removal commencing. A list
of licensed arborists is maintained by the City Forestry Division and is available upon
request or at fcgov.com/forestry. The use of heavy construction equipment, including but
not limited to excavators, backhoes, and bulldozers, to remove trees is not allowed
without prior Forestry Division written permission.
3. During construction, prior to either DCP issuance or of any
demolition, grading, excavation, or site work commencing on the Property, whichever
occurs earlier, tree protection must be installed around all trees that are shown to
be preserved and protected on the Final Development Plan Documents and an arborist
licensed by the City of Fort Collins must provide written confirmation to the City that such
tree protection has been installed. Required tree protection measures are set forth in
Land Use Code Section 3.2.1(G) and include, but are not limited to, the requirement that
a minimum 4 foot high barrier be erected no closer than six (6)feet from the trunk or one-
half('/2) the length to the drip line (i.e. the canopy edge), whichever is greater.
4. Prior to landscape work commencing on the Property, the Developer
shall schedule a meeting between City Forestry Division staff and the landscapers who
will perform the work.
5. Tree protection must be maintained throughout the duration of
construction activities on the Property. At any time during construction, and upon City
Forestry Division written notice that tree protection is not adequate for one or more trees,
the Developer shall cease construction activities adjacent to such tree or trees until
required tree protection measures are in place to the satisfaction of the City Forestry
Division.

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 the City's storm drainage facilities in the
Development. No language in this Paragraph shall be construed or interpreted as
establishing in any way the City's liability for any act or omission and the terms of this
Paragraph solely relate to the Developer's obligation to indemnify and hold harmless the

EXHIBIT C
STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES (SOPS) FOR STORMWATER
A. Purpose
In order for physical stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) to be effective,
proper maintenance is essential. Maintenance includes both routinely scheduled
activities, as well as non-routine repairs that may be required after large storms, or as a
result of other unforeseen problems. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) clearly
identify BMP maintenance responsibility. BMP maintenance is the responsibility of the
entity owning the BMP.
Identifying who is responsible for maintenance of BMPs and ensuring that an adequate
budget is allocated for maintenance is critical to the long-term success of BMPs. For this
project, the privately owned BMPs shown in Section B below are to be maintained by the
Developer (or successor in interest which may be a property owner, or Homeowners
Association (HOA), or property manager). It is incumbent upon the Developer to keep
maintenance records and provide these records to the City upon request.
B. Site-Specific SOPs
The following stormwater facilities contained within this development are subject to SOP
requirements:
- Directly Connected Downspouts
- Perforated Subdrain
- Storm Drain Lines
- Dry Extended Detention
- Sedimentation Sump
- Vegetated and/or Cobble Swale
- Underground Detention
The location of said facilities can be found on the Timber Lark Utility Plans and Landscape
Plans. Required inspection and specific maintenance procedures and frequencies are
outlined in the following pages. General maintenance requirements and activities, as well
as BMP-specific constraints and considerations shall follow the guidelines outlined in
Volume 3 of the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District (UDFCD) Urban Storm
Drainage Criteria Manual.

Directly Connected Downspouts
Many of the downspouts connect directly to the storm drain system. The following SOP
generally applies to all direct downspout connections.
This SOP can more specifically apply to those which drain directly to the reservoir areas
beneath the Modular Block Pavers. At each of these connections, the downspout
discharges to a perforated drain basin. The drain basins discharge directly to the MBP
reservoir. The drain basins are designed to prevent debris and sediment from entering
the MBP reservoir area. Debris and sediment compromise the functionality and
effectiveness of the system.

Perforated Subdrain
The perforated subdrain system storm drain outfall at the bottom of the Low Impact
Development (LID) system is critical to the overall function of the system subbase. As
such, special maintenance has been identified to ensure these perforated drain systems
perform as they were designed.
Perforated subdrains leading away from the LID system is designed to provide faster
release of water when accumulation occurs under the LID system. Outflow should be
seen into downstream storm boxes. If not seen it is recommended that the system is
inspected using a video camera to verify no clogging has occurred.
Perforated subdrains leading toward the LID system are designed to provide an
opportunity for infiltration. These subdrains may lead to a drywell where additional
infiltration capacity is available to reduce runoff per the stated LID goals adopted by the
City.

Sedimentation Sump Maintenance Plan
The sedimentation sumps located upstream of drywells or infiltration galleries are
intended to reduce the accumulation of sediment and debris in underground systems.
These sumps have a capacity provided for accumulated sediment that must be
maintained. These sumps are located within manholes or inlets as shown on the utility
plans and provided with snouts to reduce the hydrocarbon load dispersed into the
undergrounds system that could compromise the functionality.

Underground Detention - StormTech Subsurface Stormwater Management
Chambers
Subsurface stormwater management chambers are located under the parking lot. The
primary purpose of this system is to provide detention quantity storage. However, the
chambers and associated Isolator Row provide additional water quality and low-impact
development benefits as well.
An important component of any stormwater BMP is proper inspection and maintenance.
The StormTech Isolator Row is a patented technique to improve Total Suspended Solids
(TSS) removal and provide easy access for inspection and maintenance.
