4/30/15
A. SUBDIVIDER has presented to CITY for approval and recordation, a final
subdivision map of a proposed SUBDIVISION pursuant to provisions of the
Subdivision Map Act of the State of California and the CITY's ordinances and
regulations relating to the filing, approval and recordation of subdivision maps.
The Subdivision Map Act and the CITY's ordinances and regulations relating to
the filing, approval and recordation of subdivision maps are collectively referred
to in this Agreement as the "Subdivision Laws".
B. A tentative map of the SUBDIVISION has been approved, subject to the
Subdivision Laws and to the requirements and conditions contained in the
Resolution of Approval. The Resolution of Approval is on file in the Office of the
City Clerk and is incorporated into this Agreement by reference.
C. The Subdivision Laws establish as a condition precedent to the approval of a
final map that SUBDIVIDER must have complied with the Resolution of Approval
and must have either (a) completed, in compliance with CITY standards, all of
the improvements and land development work required by the Subdivision Laws
or the Resolution of Approval or (b) have entered into a secured agreement with
CITY to complete the improvements and land development within a period of
time specified by CITY.
D. In consideration of the approval of a final map for the SUBDIVISION by the
City Council, SUBDIVIDER desires to enter into this Agreement, whereby
SUBDIVIDER promises to install and complete, at SUBDIVIDER's own expense,
all the public improvement work required by CITY in connection with the
proposed SUBDIVISION. SUBDIVIDER has secured this Agreement by
improvement security required by the Subdivision Laws and approved by the City
Attorney.
E. Complete Improvement Plans for the construction, installation, and completion of
the improvements have been prepared by SUBDIVIDER and approved by the
City Engineer. The Improvement Plans numbered as referenced previously in
this Agreement are on file in the Office of the City Engineer and are incorporated
72500.00001\5753099.2 - 2 -
4/30/15
into this Agreement by this reference. All references in this Agreement to the
Improvement Plans shall include reference to any specifications for the
improvements as approved by the City Engineer.
F. An estimate of the cost for construction of the public improvements and
performing land development work in connection with the improvements
according to the Improvement Plans has been made and has been approved by
the City Engineer. The estimated amount is stated on Page 1 of this Agreement.
The basis for the estimate is attached as Exhibit "A" to this Agreement.
G. CITY has adopted standards for the construction and installation of
improvements within the CITY. The Improvement Plans have been prepared in
conformance with CITY standards in effect on the date of the Resolution of
Approval.
H. All public improvement monuments, street signs, and stakes as specified on the
final map are to be completed prior to final formal acceptance by the City
Council. Individual property monuments must be installed within one year from
the formal final Council acceptance of said SUBDIVISION.
SUBDIVIDER recognizes that by approval of the final map for SUBDIVISION,
CITY has conferred substantial rights upon SUBDIVIDER, including the right to
sell, lease, or finance lots within the SUBDIVISION. As a result, CITY will be
damaged to the extent of the cost of installation of the improvements by
SUBDIVIDER's failure to perform its obligations to commence construction of the
improvements by the time established in this Agreement. CITY shall be entitled to all
remedies available to it pursuant to this Agreement and law in the event of a
default by SUBDIVIDER. It is specifically recognized that the determination of
whether a reversion to acreage or rescission of the SUBDIVISION constitutes an
adequate remedy for default by the SUBDIVIDER shall be within the sole
discretion of CITY.

Agreement are incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. If any security is
replaced by another approved security, the replacement shall:1) comply with all the

4/30/15
and incorporated into this Agreement. Upon provision of a replacement security with the City
Engineer and filing of a replacement security with the City Clerk, the former security may

exceeding ten percent (10%) of the original estimated cost of the

been completed in accordance with this Agreement, then the City
Engineer shall certify the completion of the public improvements to the City
Council. No improvements shall be finally accepted by the City Council unless
all aspects of the work have been inspected and completed in accordance with the
Improvement Plans. When applicable law requires an inspection to be made by
City at a particular stage of the work of constructing and installing such
improvements, CITY shall be given timely notice of SUBDIVIDER's
readiness for such inspection and SUBDIVIDER shall not proceed with additional
work until the inspection has been made and the work approved. SUBDIVIDER

deemed completed until accepted by the City Council pursuant to Section
(17) herein.

C. Security given to secure payment to the contractor, his or her
subcontractors and to persons furnishing labor, materials or
equipment shall, at six (6) months after completion and acceptance
of the work, be reduced to an amount equal to no less than 125%
of the total claimed by all claimants for whom liens have been filed
and of which notice has been given to the CITY, plus an amount
reasonably determined by the City Engineer to be required to
assure the performance of any other obligations secured by the
Security. The balance of the security shall be released upon the
settlement of all claims and obligations for which the security was
given.

case may be, all public improvements, public utilities facilities and
surveying or subdivision monument which are destroyed or damaged as a

4/30/15
result of any work under this Agreement. SUBDIVIDER shall bear the
entire cost of replacement or repairs of any and all public or public utility
property damaged or destroyed by reason of any work done under this
Agreement, whether such property is owned by the United States or any
agency thereof, or the State of California, or any agency or political
subdivision thereof, or by CITY or any public or private utility corporation
or by any combination of such owners. Any repair or replacement shall be
to the satisfaction, and subject to the approval, of the City Engineer.
8. Permits. SUBDIVIDER shall, at SUBDIVIDER's expense, obtain all
necessary permits and licenses for the construction and installation of the

this Agreement;
(2) SUBDIVIDER's failure to timely complete construction of the
improvements;
(3) SUBDIVIDER's failure to timely cure any defect in the
improvements;
(4) SUBDIVIDER's failure to perform substantial construction
work for a period of twenty (20) calendar days after
commencement of the work;

filing of any petition in bankruptcy either voluntary or
involuntary which SUBDIVIDER fails to discharge within

(6) SUBDIVIDER's failure to perform any other obligation under
this Agreement.
b. CITY reserves to itself all remedies available to it at law or in equity
for breach of SUBDIVIDER's obligations under this Agreement. CITY shall have
the right, subject to this Section, to draw upon or utilize the appropriate security
to mitigate CITY's damages in event of default by SUBDIVIDER. The right of
CITY to draw upon or utilize the security is additional to and not in lieu of any
other remedy available to CITY. It is specifically recognized that the estimated
costs and security amounts may not reflect the actual cost of construction or
installation of the improvements and, therefore, CITY's damages for
SUBDIVIDER's default shall be measured by the cost of completing the required
improvements. The sums provided by the improvement security may be used by
CITY for the completion of the public improvements in accordance with the
improvement plans and specifications contained herein.
In the event of SUBDIVIDER's default under this Agreement,
SUBDIVIDER authorizes CITY to perform such obligation twenty (20) days after
mailing written notice of default to SUBDIVIDER and to SUBDIVIDER's surety,
and agrees to pay the entire cost of such performance by CITY.
CITY may take over the work and prosecute the same to completion, by
contract or by any other method CITY may deem advisable, for the account and
at the expense of SUBDIVIDER, and SUBDIVIDER's surety shall be liable to
CITY for any excess cost or damages occasioned CITY thereby. In such event,
CITY, without liability for so doing, may take possession of, and utilize in
completing the work, such materials, appliances, plants and other property
belonging to SUBDIVIDER as may be on the site of the work and necessary for
performance of the work.
72500.00001\5753099.2-
4/30/15
C. Failure of SUBDIVIDER to comply with the terms of this Agreement
shall constitute consent to the filing by CITY of notice of violation
against all the lots in the SUBDIVISION, or to rescind the approval
or otherwise revert the SUBDIVISION to acreage. The remedy
provided by this subsection (c) is in addition to and not in lieu of other
remedies available to CITY. SUBDIVIDER agrees that the choice of
remedy or remedies for SUBDIVIDER's breach shall be in the
discretion of CITY.
d. In the event that SUBDIVIDER fails to perform any obligation
hereunder, SUBDIVIDER agrees to pay all costs and expenses
incurred by CITY in securing performance of such obligations,
including but not limited to fees and charges of architects,
engineers, attorneys, other professionals, and court costs.
e. The failure of CITY to take an enforcement action with respect to a
default, or to declare a breach, shall not be construed as a waiver
of that default or breach or any subsequent default or breach of
SUBDIVIDER.
10. Warranty. SUBDIVIDER shall guarantee or warranty the work done
pursuant to this Agreement for a period of one year after final formal
acceptance of the SUBDIVISION by the City Council against any defective
work or labor done or defective materials furnished. If within the warranty
period any work or improvement or part of any work or improvement done,
furnished, installed, or constructed by SUBDIVIDER fails to fulfill any of
the requirements of this Agreement or the improvement plans and
specifications referred to herein, SUBDIVIDER shall without delay and
without any cost to CITY, repair or replace or reconstruct any defective or
otherwise unsatisfactory part or parts of the work or structure. Should
SUBDIVIDER fail to act promptly or in accordance with this requirement,
72500.00001\5753099.2 - 12 -
4/30/15
SUBDIVIDER hereby authorizes CITY, at CITY's option, to perform the
work twenty (20) days after mailing written notice of default to
SUBDIVIDER and to SUBDIVIDER's surety, and agrees to pay the cost of
such work by CITY. Should CITY determine that an urgency requires
repairs or replacements to be made before SUBDIVIDER can be notified,
CITY may, in its sole discretion, make the necessary repairs or
replacement or perform the necessary work and SUBDIVIDER shall pay to
CITY the cost of such repairs.
11. SUBDIVIDER Not Agent of CITY. Neither SUBDIVIDER nor any of
SUBDIVIDER's agents, contractors or subcontractors are or shall be
considered to be agents of CITY in connection with the performance of
SUBDIVIDER'S obligations under this Agreement.
12. Injury to Work. Until such time as the improvements are accepted by
CITY, SUBDIVIDER shall be responsible for and bear the risk of loss to
any of the improvements constructed or installed. Until such time as all
improvements required by this Agreement are fully completed and
accepted by CITY, SUBDIVIDER will be responsible for the care,
maintenance of, and any damage to such improvements. CITY shall not,
nor shall any officer or employee thereof, be liable or responsible for any
accident, loss or damage, regardless of cause, happening or occurring to
the work or improvements specified in this Agreement prior to the
completion and acceptance of the work or improvements. All such risks
shall be the responsibility of and are hereby assumed by SUBDIVIDER.

improvements by CITY, SUBDIVIDER shall certify and warrant that neither

caused or permitted the release of, and has no knowledge of the release or
presence of, any hazardous substance on the property to be dedicated or the
migration of any hazardous substance from or to any other property adjacent to,
or in the vicinity of, the property to be dedicated. SUBDIVIDER's prior and
present use of the property to be dedicated has not resulted in the release
of any hazardous substance on the property to be dedicated. SUBDIVIDER
shall give prompt written notice to CITY at the address set forth herein of:
a. Any proceeding or investigation by any federal, state or local
governmental authority with respect to the presence of any
hazardous substance on the property to be dedicated or the
migration thereof from or to any other property adjacent to, or in the
vicinity of, the property to be dedicated;

the property to be dedicated relating to any loss or injury resulting
from any hazardous substance; and,
C. SUBDIVIDER's discovery of any occurrence or condition on any
property adjoining in the vicinity of the property to be dedicated that
could cause the property to be dedicated or any part thereof to be
subject to any restrictions on its ownership, occupancy, use for the
purpose for which is it is intended, transferability or suit under any
environmental law.
14. Other Agreements. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude
CITY from expending monies pursuant to agreements concurrently or
previously executed between the parties, or from entering into agreements
with other subdividers for the apportionment of costs of water and sewer

Engineer after final completion and inspection of all improvements. The
City Council shall act upon the Engineer's recommendation within sixty
(60) days from the date the City Engineer certifies that the work has been
finally completed, as provided in Section (6). Such acceptance shall not
constitute a waiver of defects by CITY.
18. Indemnity/Hold Harmless. CITY or any officer or employee thereof shall
not be liable for any injury to persons or property occasioned by reason of
the acts or omissions of SUBDIVIDER, its agents, or employees,
contractors and subcontractors in the performance of this Agreement.
SUBDIVIDER further agrees to protect, defend, indemnify and hold
harmless CITY, its officials, boards and commissions, and members
thereof agents and employees from any and all claims, demands, causes
of action, liability or loss of any sort, because of, or arising out of, acts or
omissions of SUBDIVIDER, its agents, employees, contractors and
subcontractors in the performance of this Agreement, except for such
72500.00001\5753099.2 - 15 -
4/30/15
claims, demands, causes of action, liability, or loss arising out of the sole
active negligence of the CITY, its officials, boards, commissions, the
members thereof, agents, and employees, including all claims, demands,
causes of action, liability, or loss because of, or arising out of, in whole or
in part, the design or construction of the improvements. This
indemnification and agreement to hold harmless shall extend to injuries to
persons and damages or taking of property resulting from the design or
construction of said SUBDIVISION, and the public improvements as
provided herein, and in addition, to adjacent property owners as a
consequence of the diversion of waters from the design and construction
of public drainage systems, streets and other public improvements.
Acceptance by CITY of the improvements shall not constitute an
assumption by CITY of any responsibility for any damage or taking
covered by this Section. CITY shall not be responsible for the design or
construction of the property to be dedicated or the improvements pursuant
to the approved improvement plans or map, regardless of any negligent
action or inaction taken by CITY in approving the plans or map, unless the
particular improvement design was specifically required by CITY over
written objection by SUBDIVIDER submitted to the City Engineer before
approval of the particular improvement design, which objection indicated that the
particular improvement design was dangerous or defective and suggested an
alternative safe and feasible design.
After acceptance of the improvements, the SUBDIVIDER shall remain
obligated to eliminate any defect in design or dangerous condition caused by the
design or construction defect; however, SUBDIVIDER shall not be responsible
for routine maintenance. Provisions of this Section shall remain in full force and
effect for ten (10) years following the acceptance by CITY of the improvements. It
is the intent of this Section that SUBDIVIDER shall be responsible for all liability
for design and construction of the improvements installed or work done pursuant
to this Agreement and that CITY shall not be liable for any negligence,
nonfeasance, misfeasance or malfeasance in approving, reviewing, checking, or
72500.00001\5753099.2 - 16 _
4/30/15
inspecting any work or construction. The improvement security shall not be
required to cover the provisions of this Section.
SUBDIVIDER shall reimburse CITY for all costs and expenses (including but not
limited to fees and charges of architects, engineers, attorneys, and other professionals,
and court costs) incurred by CITY in enforcing the provisions of this Section.
19. Personal Nature of SUBDIVIDER'S Obligations. All of SUBDIVIDER's
obligations under this agreement are and shall remain the personal
obligations of SUBDIVIDER notwithstanding a transfer of all or any part of
the property within the SUBDIVISION subject to this Agreement, and
SUBDIVIDER shall not be entitled to assign its obligations under this
Agreement to any transferee of all or any part of the property within the
SUBDIVISION or to any other third party without the express written
consent of CITY.
20. Sale or Disposition of SUBDIVISION. Seller or other SUBDIVIDER may
request a novation of this Agreement and a substitution of security. Upon
approval of the novation and substitution of securities, the SUBDIVIDER
may request a release or reduction of the securities required by this
Agreement. Nothing in the novation shall relieve the SUBDIVIDER of the
obligations under Section (18) for the work or improvement done by
SUBDIVIDER.
21. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in the performance of this
Agreement.
22. Time for Commencement of Work: Time Extensions. SUBDIVIDER shall
commence substantial construction of the improvements required by this
Agreement not later than six (6) months after the date of this Agreement.
In the event good cause exists as determined by the City Engineer, the
time for commencement of construction or completion of the
72500.00001\5753099.2 _ 17
4/30/15
improvements hereunder may be extended for a period or periods not
exceeding a total of two (2) additional years. The extension shall be
executed in writing by the City Engineer. Any such extension may be
granted without notice to SUBDIVIDER's surety and shall not affect the
validity of this Agreement or release the surety or sureties on any security
given for this Agreement. The City Engineer shall be the sole and final
judge as to whether or not good cause has been shown to entitle
SUBDIVIDER to an extension. Delay, other than delay in the
commencement of work, resulting from an act of CITY, act of God, or by
storm or inclement weather, strikes, boycotts or similar political actions
which prevents the conducting of work, which SUBDIVIDER could not
have reasonably foreseen and, furthermore, were not caused by or
contributed to by SUBDIVIDER, shall constitute good cause for and
extension of the time for completion. As a condition of such extension, the
City Engineer may require SUBDIVIDER to furnish new security
guaranteeing performance of this Agreement as extended in an increased
amount as necessary to compensate for any increase in construction
costs as determined by the City Engineer.
23. No Vesting of Rights. Performance by SUBDIVIDER of this Agreement
shall not be construed to vest SUBDIVIDER's rights with respect to any
change in any zoning or building law or ordinance.
24. Notices. All notices required or provided for under this Agreement shall be
in writing and delivered in person or sent by mail, postage prepaid and
addressed as provided in this Section. Notice shall be effective on the
date it is delivered in person, or, if mailed, on the date of deposit in the
United States mail. Notices shall be addressed as follows unless a written
change of address is filed with the City:
