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. The City Council has reviewed the applications and has approved Tentative Parcel
Map No. 37876 ("Tentative Map") for the subdivision of the land and has approved Conditional
Use Permits CUP 21-006, 21-007, 21-008 and 21-009 and Design Reviews DR 21-001 AND 21-
002 for the development of various commercial sites within the Subdivision, all subject to the
Subdivision Laws and to the requirements and conditions of approval imposed thereon by the
Approval Action by the City Council on September 28, 2022. The tentative parcel map and all
requirements and conditions imposed thereon by the Approval Action are on file in the Office of
the City Engineer and are incorporated into this Agreement by reference to the extent the same
relate to the Property.
C. Developer is in escrow to purchase the portion of the land being divided by Parcel
Map 37876 as described in the attached Exhibit "A". Close of escrow is conditioned upon
approval and recordation of Parcel Map 37876 and Developer complying with the requirements
of the Approval Action which relate to the Property and either (a) completing in compliance with
City standards, all of the public and private improvement relating to the Property and work
required by the Subdivision Laws or the Conditions of Approval which relate to the Property or,
(b) entering into a secured agreement with City to complete the public and private improvements
relating to the Property within a period of time specified by City.
D. In order for the final map of Parcel Map 37876 to be recorded and for the close of
escrow to take place, Developer desires to enter into this Agreement, whereby Developer
promises to install and complete, at Developer's own expense, all the public and private
improvement work related to the Property which is required by City, which work is generally
described in the attached Exhibit "B-3". Developer has secured this Agreement by improvement
security required by the Subdivision Laws and approved by the City Attorney.
E. Improvement Plans ("Improvement Plans" or "Plans") for the construction,
installation, and completion of the improvements have been prepared by Developer and
Page 2 of 23
E. Improvement Plans ("Improvement Plans" or "Plans") for the construction,
installation, and completion of the improvements have been prepared by Developer and
approved by the City Engineer. The Improvement Plans are on file in the Office of the City
Engineer and are incorporated into this Agreement by this reference to the extent the same
relate to the Property. All references in this Agreement to the Improvement Plans shall include
reference to any specifications ("Specifications") for the improvements related to the Property as
approved by the City Engineer.
F. An estimate of the cost for construction of the public and private improvements
related to the Property and performing the land development work for the Property in connection
with the improvements according to the Plans has been made and approved by the Director of
Engineering A Summary of the estimated costs of all public and private improvements, sewer
and water improvements, and monumentation related to the Property is attached hereto as
Exhibit "B-1" and is incorporated and made part of this Agreement by this reference. The
amounts of the Improvement Securities ("Improvement Securities") required to be posted with
this Agreement are listed in the Summary attached hereto as Exhibit "B-2" and are based upon
the estimates in Exhibit "B-1". The estimated cost of the sewer and water improvements in
Exhibit "B-1" were prepared and submitted by Desert Water Agency (DWA), which will be the
owner and operator of the sewer and water system facilities upon their completion by Developer
and acceptance by DWA.
G. The City has adopted standards for the construction and installation of
improvements within the City. The Improvement Plans have been prepared in conformance
with the City standards in effect on the date or approval of the Conditions of Approval.
H. Within thirty (30) days after completion of the required improvements and prior to
their acceptance by City, certain survey monuments and markers as specified on the final parcel
map shall be installed in accordance with the provisions of the State Subdivision Map Act and
with the ordinances of the City.
I. Developer recognizes that by City's approval and recordation of the final parcel
map, and by Developer's purchase of the Property, City has conferred substantial rights upon
Developer, including the right to sell, lease, or finance lots within the parcel map. As a result,
City will be damaged to the extent of the cost of installation of the improvements by Developer's
failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, Developer's
obligation to complete construction of the improvements related to the Property 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 Developer. It is specifically recognized that
the determination of whether a reversion to acreage or rescission of the lots and parcels within
the parcel map constitutes an adequate remedy for default by the Developer shall be within the
sole discretion of City.

Said changes, if any, shall be confined to the Property.

Page 7 of 23
(a) Developer shall at all times maintain proper facilities and safe access for
inspection of the Improvements by City inspectors and to the shops wherein any work is in
preparation.
(b) Upon completion of the Improvements covered in this Agreement, the Developer
shall request a final inspection by the City Engineer or his/her authorized representative.
Following receipt of such request, the City Engineer shall inspect the Improvements, make
certain determinations and take certain actions as follows:
(i) If the City Engineer, or his/her authorized representative, determines that
the Improvements requiring dedication to and acceptance by the City for public use (the
"Public Improvements") have been completed in accordance with this Agreement, then
the City Engineer shall certify the completion of the Public Improvements by placing a
resolution on the next most convenient City Council agenda seeking: (1) formal
acceptance of the Public Improvements; (2) release of the Improvement Securities; and
(3) authorization to file and record a Notice of Completion. Said determination by the City
Engineer and agendization of the acceptance and release shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. Any certification and/or acceptance of the Public Improvements
shall not constitute a waiver of any defects by City.
(ii) For Improvements not requiring dedication to or acceptance by the City (the
"Private Improvements"), the City Engineer or his/her authorized representative shall
inspect such improvements, and/or shall have the discretion to accept a certification from
Developer's registered civil engineer stating that the Private Improvements have been
completed in accordance with the approved Plans, City Standards and the Tentative
Map. If the City Engineer, or his/her authorized representative, makes a finding, based
on his/her own inspection (and/or any certification submitted by Developer's registered
civil engineer) that the Private Improvements have been installed and constructed in
accordance with the approved Plans, City Standards and the Tentative Map, the City
Engineer shall recommend certification of the completion of the Private Improvements by
placing an item on the next most convenient City Council agenda requesting certification
and authorization to release the Improvement Securities. Said determination by the City
Engineer and agendization of the certification and release shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed.
(iii) With regard to the sewer and water improvements which will be owned and
operated by Desert Water Agency (DWA), if the General Manager or Chief Engineer of
DWA, or his/her authorized representative, determines that the sewer and/or water
improvements requiring acceptance by DWA for public use have been completed in
accordance with this Agreement and DWA plans and specifications, then upon receipt of
written approval from the DWA General Manager, Chief Engineer or authorized
representative, the Director of Engineering shall certify the completion of the sewer
and/or water improvements by placing a resolution on the next most convenient City
Page 8 of 23
Council agenda seeking: (1) formal acknowledgment of their acceptable completion; and
(2) release of the Improvement Securities posted therefor. Said determination by the
Director of Engineering and agendization of the acceptance and release shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed after receipt from said approval from Desert Water
Agency. Any certification and/or acceptance of the sewer or water improvements shall
not constitute a waiver of any defects by City or Desert Water Agency.
(c) Developer shall bear all costs of inspection and certification of the Improvements.
6. Release of Improvement Securities.
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Improvement Securities shall be
released only as specified in this Section:
(a) The Performance Security shall be fully released only upon the final completion
and certification of all Public Improvements and Private Improvements, and after acceptance of
the Public Improvements by the City Council. Partial releases may be permitted subject to the
provisions of Subsections (a)(i) and (a)(ii) hereof. Upon final completion of the Public
Improvements and Private Improvements under this Agreement, and after City Council
acceptance/certification, the City shall file a Notice of Completion in accordance with the
California Civil Code.
(i) The City Engineer may release a portion of the Performance Security, as
work on the Improvements progresses, upon written application thereof by the Developer;
provided, however, that no such release shall be considered by City until the value of the
work remaining to be completed is thirty percent (30%) or less of the estimate of the total
amount of work to be done as shown in Exhibit "B-1". Upon approval of a partial release
or the reduction of Performance Security, the City shall not reduce such Performance
Security to an amount less than two hundred percent (200%) of the value of the work
remaining to be done. City and Developer agree that not more than two requests for
reduction or partial release of Performance Security shall be considered between the
start of construction and the completion and acceptance/certification of the Improvements
by the City.
(ii) In no event shall the City Engineer authorize a release of the Performance
Security which would reduce such security to an amount below that required to guarantee
the completion of the Improvements and any other obligations imposed upon Developer
by this Agreement.
(iii) No partial reduction or release of the Performance Security shall constitute
or be construed as the City's acceptance of any Improvements or related work. Such
partial reductions or releases (if any) will merely reflect that a certain portion of the
required work has been done.
Page 9 of 23
(b) The Labor & Materials Security shall, ninety (90) days after the City's recordation
of the Notice of Completion described Subsection 6(a), be reduced to an amount equal to the
total claimed by all claimants for whom liens have been filed and of which notice has been given
to City, plus an amount reasonably determined by the City Engineer to be required to assure the
performance of any other obligations secured by the Labor & Materials Security and to cover
legal costs. The balance shall be released upon the settlement of all claims and obligations for
which the Labor & Materials Security was given. If no claims or liens have been filed and no
notice has been given to City within said ninety (90) day period, then the Labor & Materials
Security shall be released in full.
(c) The Warranty Security shall not be released until after the expiration of the one-
year (1-year) warranty period and until any claims filed during the warranty period have been
settled. As provided in Section 10, below, the warranty period shall not commence until final
acceptance/certification of the Improvements and related work by the City Council.
(d) The Performance Security posted for the sewer or water improvements to be owned
and operated by Desert Water Agency, shall be fully released only upon the receipt from Desert
Water Agency of written approval thereof, as outlined in Section 5(b)(iii) above and after
approval thereof by the City Council. Partial releases of the performance security posted for
sewer and water improvements may be permitted subject to the provisions of Subsections (a)(i)
and (a)(ii) hereof only upon the Director of Engineering's receipt of written approval of the partial
release from the Desert Water Agency.
(e) The Labor & Materials Security posted for the sewer or water improvements to be
owned and operated by Desert Water Agency shall, ninety (90) days after the City's recordation
of the Notice of Completion described in this Section 6, be reduced to an amount equal to the
total claimed by all claimants for whom liens have been filed and of which notice has been given
to City, plus an amount reasonably determined by the Director of Engineering to be required to
assure the performance of any other obligations secured by the Labor & Materials Security and
to cover legal costs. The balance shall be released upon the settlement of all claims and
obligations for which the Labor & Materials Security was given. If no claims or liens have been
filed and no notice has been given to City within said ninety (90) day period, then the Labor &
Materials Security shall be released in full.
(f) The Monumentation Security may be released in full by the City Engineer in
accordance with the terms of the separate monument agreement with the City, or if there is
none, upon submittal of the following:
(i) a written certification from the professional engineer or surveyor responsible
for setting the monuments stating that all the final monuments, boundary corners and lot
corners for the Subdivision have been set in accordance with the Professional Land
Page 10 of 23
Surveyors Act and the Subdivision Map Act, and that the professional engineer or
surveyor has been paid in full by Developer for such services; and
(ii) centerline tie sheets prepared in a manner acceptable to the City Engineer
showing the locations of centerline monuments in existing public or private streets.
(g) Except as otherwise provided in the Subdivision Laws (including, without limitation,
Section 66499.19 of the California Government Code), the City may retain from any
Improvement Securities released an amount sufficient to cover costs and reasonable expenses
and fees actually incurred by the City, including reasonable attorneys' fees.
7. Injury to Public Improvements, Public Property or Public Utilities Facilities.
Developer shall replace or repair, or cause the repair or replacement of any and all public
or private improvements, public utilities facilities and survey or subdivision monuments which
are destroyed or damaged as a result of any work done by Developer or its agents under this
Agreement. Developer shall bear the entire cost of replacement or repairs of any and all public
or private improvements or utility property damaged or destroyed by reason of any work done by
Developer or its agents 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 the City or any public or private utility corporation or by any combination of such
owners. Any repair or replacement shall be made to the reasonable satisfaction, and subject to
the approval of the City Engineer and the owner of any such public or private improvement.
8. Permits.
Developer shall, at Developer's expense, obtain all necessary permits and
licenses for the construction and installation of the Improvements, give all necessary
notices and pay all fees and taxes required by law.
9. Notice of Breach/Default of Developer.
(a) Default of Developer shall include, but not be limited to: (1) Developer's failure to
timely complete construction of the Improvements; (2) Developer's failure to timely cure any
defect in the Improvements; (3) Developer's failure to perform substantial construction work for
a period of twenty (20) calendar days after commencement of the work; (4) Developer's
insolvency, appointment of a receiver, or the filing of any petition in bankruptcy either voluntary
or involuntary which Developer fails to discharge within thirty (30) days; (5) the commencement
of a foreclosure action against the Property or a portion thereof, or any conveyance in lieu or in
avoidance of foreclosure; (6) Developer's failure to keep the Improvement Securities in full force
and effect; (7) Developer's failure to notify the City of any sale, transfer or other disposition of
the Property to a purported new subdivider or developer; (8) Developer's failure to maintain
insurance as required by this Agreement; or (9) the failure of Developer or Developer's
Page 11 of 23
contractors, subcontractors, agents or employees to comply with any other terms and provisions
of this Agreement.
(b) In the event of any such default, the City Engineer or the City Council may serve
written notice to Developer specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the default. Developer
shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of said notice to cure the default; provided that, if the
default is not reasonably susceptible to being cured within said thirty (30) days, Developer shall
have a reasonable period of time to cure the default so long as Developer commences to cure
the default within said thirty (30) days and diligently prosecutes the cure to completion.
(c) If following service of such written notice of default, Developer fails to cure or
commence curing the default to the satisfaction of City within the cure period specified in
Subsection 9(b), above, the City Engineer or the City Council may serve notice of Developer's
default upon Developer and where applicable Developer's surety, or the holder(s) of any other
Improvement Securities, in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 21 of this
Agreement.
(d) In the event of service of the notice of default specified in Subsection 9(c), above,
Developer's surety shall have the duty to take over and complete the Improvements and related
work required under this Agreement; provided; however, that if the surety, within twenty (20)
days after the serving upon it of such notice of default, does not give the City written notice of its
intention to take over the construction of said Improvements or does not, within ten (10) days
after giving City notice of such election, commence to complete the Improvements, City may
take over the work and prosecute the Improvements to completion, by contract or by any other
method City may deem advisable, for the account and at the expense of Developer and
Developer's surety shall be liable to City for any costs or damages occasioned City thereby;
and, in such event, City, without liability for so doing, may take possession of, and utilize in
completing the Improvements, such materials, appliances, plant and other property belonging to
Developer as may be on the site of the work and necessary for the completion of same.
(e) The City reserves to itself all remedies available to it at law or in equity for
Developer's default under this Agreement. The City shall have the right, subject to this Section,
to draw upon or utilize the appropriate Improvement Securities to mitigate City's damages in
event of default by Developer. The right of City to draw upon or utilize the Improvement
Securities is additional to and not in lieu of any other remedy available to City. It is specifically
recognized that the estimated costs and amounts of Improvement Securities may not reflect the
actual cost of construction or installation of the Improvements, and therefore, City's damages for
Developer's default shall be measured by the actual cost of completing the required
Improvements. The sums provided by the Improvement Securities may be used by City for the
completion of the Improvements in accordance with the Plans.
(f) Failure of Developer to comply with the terms of this Agreement, including but not
limited to, construction of all the Improvements as set forth herein and as required by the
Page 12 of 23
Tentative Map, shall constitute Developer's consent to any or all of the following: (1) the filing by
City of a notice of violation against all of the lots comprising the Property; (2) a rescission by the
City Council of the map approval; (3) action by City to otherwise revert the Property to acreage;
and (4) withholding of Building permits, building inspections, utility connections and/or
Certificates of Occupancy related to the Property. The remedies provided by this Subsection (f)
are in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies available to City at law or in equity.
Developer agrees that the choice of remedy or remedies for Developer's default or breach shall
be in the sole discretion of City.
(g) In the event that Developer fails to perform any obligation hereunder, Developer
agrees to pay all costs and expenses actually incurred by City in securing performances of such
obligations, including costs of suit and reasonable attorney's fees.
(h) The failure of City to take an enforcement action with respect to a default, or to
declare a default or breach, shall not be construed as a waiver of that default or breach, or of
any subsequent default or breach of Developer. Any failure by the City to enforce any provision
of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to compel enforcement of such

Agreement. Developer hereby agrees to, and shall defend (with legal counsel reasonably
acceptable to the City) and hold harmless City, its elective and appointive boards, commissions
and officers, and its agents, contractors and employees from and against any and all claims,
demands, causes of action, damages, costs, expenses, actual attorneys' fees, consultant's fees,
expert's fees, losses or liability, in law or in equity, of every kind and nature whatsoever arising
out of or in connection with Developer's operations, or any subcontractor's operations, to be
performed under this Agreement for Developer's or subcontractor's tort negligence including
active or passive, or strict negligence, including but not limited to personal injury including, but
not limited to bodily injury, emotional injury, sickness or disease, or death to persons and/or
damage to property of anyone, including loss of use thereof, caused or alleged to be caused by
any act or omission of Developer or any subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed
by any of them or anyone for the full period of time allowed by law, with the exception of the sole
negligence or willful misconduct of City.
(b) Developer's indemnity, defense and hold harmless obligations under this Section
16 are not conditioned or dependent upon whether City, or its elective and appointive boards,
commissions and officers, or its agents, contractors and employees, prepared, supplied or
reviewed any Plans or related specifications in connection with the Improvements, or whether
City or Developer has insurance or other indemnification covering any of these matters.
(c) Developer's obligation to indemnify, hold harmless and defend City shall extend to
injuries to persons and damages to or alleged taking of property resulting from the design or
construction of the Improvements. City's acceptance and/or certification of the Improvements
shall not constitute an assumption by City of any responsibility or liability for any damage or
alleged taking of property referenced herein. City shall not be responsible or liable for the
design or construction of the Improvements constructed or installed pursuant to the Plans,
unless the particular Improvement design was required by City over the written objection of
Developer, which objection stated that the Improvement design was potentially dangerous or
defective and set forth a safe and feasible alternative design. After City's
acceptance/certification of the Improvements, Developer shall remain obligated to correct or
eliminate all dangerous conditions caused by defects in design or construction; provided,
however, that the Developer shall not be responsible for routine maintenance. Developer
acknowledges and agrees that Developer shall be responsible and liable for the design and
construction of the Improvements and other work done pursuant to this Agreement, and except
as may be provided above, City shall not be liable for any acts or omissions in approving,
reviewing, checking, correcting or modifying any Plans, or in inspecting, reviewing or approving
any work or construction of Improvements. Developer's Improvement Securities shall not be
required to secure, and shall not secure, Developer's obligations under this Section 16.

17. Sale or Disposition of Subdivision; Assignment.
(a) Developer acknowledges and agrees that, except as expressly set forth in
Section 17(b) below, the sale, transfer or other disposition of the Property prior to completion of
the Improvements required hereunder will not relieve Developer from the obligations set forth in
this Agreement, and Developer shall be required to notify City sixty (60) day in advance of any
sale or transfer of ownership of the Property or any proposed assignment of this Agreement. If
Developer sells or otherwise transfers the Property to any other person or entity prior to final
completion of the Improvements, or wishes to assign this Agreement, Developer may request a
novation of this Agreement and a substitution of Improvement Securities by the new owner or
proposed assignee (hereinafter collectively for purposes of this Section, "Successor").
Developer shall be required to provide any documentation reasonably required by City to
determine the appropriateness of any proposed Successor.
(b) Any proposed Successor must demonstrate to the City its ability to perform and
complete the obligations of Developer under this Agreement, as determined by objective
standards of financial capability, creditworthiness and experience required for such
performance, and the City shall have the right to compel the Successor to disclose all
documents, information and other material which, in City's sole reasonable discretion, may
establish or tend to establish that the proposed Successor meets the standards specified herein.
Following approval by City and full execution of a novation (or other such release or assignment
and assumption agreement(s) entered into by Developer, Successor and City), posting of
satisfactory replacement Improvement Securities and submission of required insurance by
Successor, City shall immediately release the Improvement Securities posted by Developer in
accordance with the provisions of such novation (or other such release or assignment and
assumption agreement entered into by Developer, Successor and City), and Developer shall
have no further obligations under this Agreement except as otherwise provided in the novation
(or other such release or assignment and assumption agreement entered into by Developer,
Successor and City).
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, from and after the date
on which the Improvements are completed and accepted by action of the City Council,
Developer may, without the approval or consent of the City, sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose
of the Property. Additionally, from and after the date on which the Improvements are completed
and accepted by action of the City Council, Developer shall not be required to provide any
notice to the City regarding any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Property. The Parties
acknowledge and agree that the provisions of Sections 17(a) and 17(b) above only apply prior to
the completion of the Improvements and their acceptance by action of the City Council.

19. Time for Completion of Improvements; Extensions.
Page 16 of 23
(a) Developer shall commence and diligently prosecute to completion construction of
all the Improvements required by this Agreement. The time for completion of the
Improvements as specified in Subsection 1(b) of this Agreement may be extended as permitted

below, and shall be made by a writing executed by the in a form as approved by the City
Attorney.
(b) Any such extension may be granted without notice to Developer's surety and shall
not affect the validity of this Agreement or release the surety or sureties on any Improvement
Securities given for this Agreement. However, City reserves the right to require as part of any
extension amendment a written assurance from the surety acceptable to the City Attorney that
the Improvement Securities required by Section 2 of this Agreement shall remain enforceable
throughout the term of any extension.
(c) The City Manager shall be the sole and final judge as to whether or not good
cause has been shown to entitle Developer to an extension. In addition, the time for completion
of the Improvements shall be extended for any delay resulting from an act of City, or from an act
of God, which Developer could not have reasonably foreseen, or by storm or inclement weather
which prevents the conducting of work, or by strikes, boycotts, similar actions by employees or
labor organizations, which prevent the conducting of work, and which were not caused by or
contributed to by Developer, provided that Developer provides City with written notice of the
delaying event within fifteen (15) days of the commencement of the delay. In the event of such
delaying event, Developer shall use all reasonable efforts to remedy same and resume
completion of the Improvements as promptly as practicable.
(d) As a condition of granting an extension of time to complete the Improvements
required by this Agreement, the City Manager may require Developer to furnish new or
additional Improvement Securities 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.
