this Contract and the breach has not been remedied. Development
' of subsequent phases may not proceed until Development Contracts
for such phases are approved by the City.
3 . Effect of Subdivision Approval. For two ( 2 ) years
from the date of this Contract, no amendments to the City ' s
Comprehensive Plan, except an amendment placing the plat in the
current urban service area , or official controls shall apply to
' or affect the use, development density, lot size, lot layout or
dedications of the approved plat unless required by state or
federal law or agreed to in writing by the City and the
Developer. Thereafter, notwithstanding anything in tnis Contract
to the contrary, to the full extent permitted by state law the
City may require compliance with any amendments to the City ' s
Comprehensive Plan, official controls, platting or dedication
' requirements enacted after the date of this Contract.
4 . Improvements. The improvements specified in the
l Special Provisions of this Contract shall be installed in accor-
dance with City standards , ordinances , and plans and specifica-
tions which have been prepared and signed by a competent

necessary permits from the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission
and other agencies before proceeding with construction . The City
will , at the Developer ' s expense, have one or more construction
inspectors and a soil engineer inspect the work on a full or
part-time basis . The Developer shall instruct its engineer to
respond to questions from the City Inspector ( s) and to make
periodic site visits to satisfy that the construction is being
performed to an acceptable level of quality in accordance with
the engineer ' s design. The Developer or his engineer shall sche-
dule a preconstruction meeting at a mutually agreeable time at
the City Council chambers with all parties concerned, including
the City staff , to review the program for the construction work.
Within sixty ( 60 ) days after the completion of the improvements
and before the security is released, the Developer shall supply
the city with the following: (1) a complete set of reproducible
Mylar as-built plans, ( 2) two complete sets of blue line as-built
plans , ( 3) two complete sets of utility tie sheets , (4) location
of buried fabric used for soil stabilization, (5 ) location sta-
tioning
of all utility stubs , and ( 6 ) bench mark network .
5 . License. The Developer hereby grants the City, its
agents , employees , officers and contractors a license to enter
the plat to perform all work and inspections deemed appropriate
by the City in conjunction with plat development.
6 . Erosion Control. Before the site is rough graded ,
and before any utility construction is commenced or building per-
mits are issued, the erosion control plan, Plan B, shall oe
implemented by the Developer and inspected and approvea by the
City. The City may impose additional erosion control require-
ments if they would be beneficial . All areas disturbed by the
excavation and backfilling operations shall be reseeded forthwith

disc anchored as necessary for seed retention. The parties
recognize that time is of the essence in controlling erosion . If
the Developer does not comply with the erosion control plan and
schedule of supplementary instructions received from the City,
the City may take such action as it deems appropriate to control
erosion at the Developer ' s expense. The City will endeavor to
notify the Developer in advance of any proposed action, but
failure of the City to do so will not affect the Developer ' s and
City ' s rights or obligations hereunder. No development will be
allowed and no building permits will be issued unless the plat is
in full compliance with the erosion control requirements .
Erosion control needs to be maintained until vegetative cover has
been restored, even if construction of the improvements has been
completed and accepted. After the site has been stabilized to
where in the opinion of the City there is no longer a need for
erosion control , the City will remove the erosion control
measures . Before the City signs the final plat, the Developer
shall pay the City a fee of $1 . 00 per foot of erosion control

control plan for the plat, Plan B, to cover the City ' s cost for
