AGREEMENT NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to the legal authority of the Idaho Code and ACHD Ordinance 231, and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, ACRD, Developer and the City desire to memorialize their respective agreements and obligations regarding the imposition, calculation and collection of the ACHD Impact Fee and the inspections and issuance of permits for the Project. 1. Imposition of ACHD Impact Fee. Development of the Project will require the payment of the ACHD Impact Fee. ACHD has presently adopted Ordinance 231 setting forth the process, method and amount of the ACHD Impact Fee. The ACHD Impact Fee shall be imposed consistent with the ordinance in effect at the time that the City issues the First TI Permit as defined in Section 2 below. 2. Calculation of ACHD Impact Fee. Pursuant to Section 7304.1 of Ordinance 231, the ACHD Impact Fee is typically collected at the issuance of a building permit, provided, however, that Section 7316.1 of Ordinance 231 permits ACHD and a "Developer" to enter into an agreement regarding the timing of payment of the ACHD Impact Fee. (a) Notification of Issuance of First TI Permit. The City, ACHD and the Developer shall jointly work to coordinate the issuance of permits for the Project. Upon the issuance of the first permit necessary to commence construction of tenant improvements at the Project (the "First TI Permit"), the City and Developer shall notify ACHD and the ACHD Impact Fee shall be calculated as of the date of the issuance of the First TI Permit. IMPACT FEE ASSESSMENT AND DEFERRAL AGREEMENT - 2 (b) Notification of Inspection for the Issuance of First Certificate of Occupancy. The Developer agrees that it shall notify the City and ACHD in writing at least thirty (30) days in advance of any request for the final inspection before the issuance of the first certificate of occupancy for the Project. (c) Applicable Impact Fee Ordinance. ACHD shall calculate the ACHD Impact Fee based upon the ordinance in effect at the time the City issues the First TI Permit. 3. Collection of ACRD Impact Fee. (a) Deferral of Fee/Enforcement. ACHD agrees that collection of the ACHD Impact Fee will be deferred as set forth herein. If the Developer is in default as set forth in Section 5(a) below, then it shall be subject to all of the remedies set forth therein and elsewhere in this Agreement. In addition, the City agrees for the benefit of ACHD that unless the Developer submits proof that the ACHD Impact Fee has been paid and ACHD confirms in writing that it has been paid, the City: (i) will not issue the First TI Permit for the Project, (ii) will not provide any utility services for any purposes other than system testing and non -occupant use for the Project, and (iii) will exercise all default rights against Developer set forth in Section 5(a) below. Developer acknowledges and agrees that as a condition precedent to the City issuing the First TI Permit that Developer will pay the ACHD Impact Fee for the Project. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the parties agree that the ACHD Impact Fee shall in no event be deferred beyond February 28, 2019, regardless of the status of the Project and/or the status of any permits issued or to be issued by the City. (c) Alternate Financial Guarantee. Alternatively, ACHD and Developer may agree that the payment of the ACHD Impact Fee may be deferred upon Developer providing an alternative financial guarantee to ensure payment of the ACHD Impact Fee, pursuant to a certificate of deposit or a letter of credit acceptable to ACHD. Such alternate financial guarantee shall be in an amount equal to the amount of the impact fee for the Project, pending reconciliation of the ACHD Impact Fee at a date subsequent to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the Project by the City. (d) Satisfaction. Upon payment of the ACHD Impact Fee or the provision for an alternate financial guarantee, ACHD shall notify the City of Developer's performance, and then and only then shall the City proceed with the issuance of the First TI Permit for the Project. The City agrees for the benefit of ACHD that the City (including without limitation, the City's employees, officials, agents, and/or contractors) will not proceed with the issuance of the First TI Permit for the Project until the foregoing condition is met. The Developer agrees it will not accept any Tenant Improvement Permits from the City for the Project until the foregoing condition is met. IMPACT FEE ASSESSMENT AND DEFERRAL AGREEMENT - 3 (e) Waiver and Estoppel. Developer hereby waives and estops itself from asserting any claim or property right relating to the issuance of the First TI Permit for the Project, deferral of the payment of the ACHD Impact Fee or default remedies provided herein until ACHD receives full payment of the ACHD Impact Fee or an alternate financial guarantee as contemplated herein. 4. Individual Assessment. Due to the complexity and unique issues presented by the development of the Project, ACHD and Developer acknowledge that Developer retains the right to pursue an individual assessment of the ACHD Impact Fee subsequent to its payment and completion of the Project. Nothing contained herein shall preclude Developer from electing to initiate an individual assessment pursuant to Section 7312 of ACHD Ordinance 231. 5. Default. (a) If Developer defaults in the performance of their obligations under the terms and provisions of the Agreement in the time and manner required, ACHD and/or City may exercise all legal and equitable remedies against such party. In addition (and without limiting the foregoing or otherwise limiting any other rights available by law or in equity), if the ACHD Impact Fee is not paid timely (i) any unpaid amounts shall accrue interest at the legal rate provided for in Idaho Code Section 28-22-104(1), from the date the First TI Permit was originally issued, (ii) ACHD may assess a penalty of $500 per day for non-payment or late payment in accordance with Idaho Code Section 67-8213 in any reasonable amount, (iii) City shall withhold any permits related to the project or other governmental approval until the fee is paid, (iv) City shall refuse and/or suspend all utility services to the Project under its jurisdiction, and (v) in accordance with Idaho Code Section 67-8213(4), ACHD may impose a lien for failure to timely pay following the procedures contained in chapter 5, title 45, Idaho Code. (b) If ACHD defaults in the performance of its obligations under the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the time and manner required herein, Developer shall only be entitled to non -monetary remedies, such as specific performance, declaratory relief, and injunctive relief. (e) If City defaults in the performance of its obligations under the terms and provisions of this Agreement in the time and manner required, ACHD and/or Developer may exercise all legal and equitable remedies against such party. 6. Existing Joint Governmental Entity Agreement. ACHD and City acknowledge they are parties to an existing Impact Fee Collection Agreement (the "Collection Agreement"). ACHD and City agree that the Collection Agreement is not applicable to this Project, and that all rights between them concerning the collection of impact fees for this Project are set forth in this Agreement. IMPACT FEE ASSESSMENT AND DEFERRAL AGREEMENT - 4 7. Acknowledgement. ACHD and City make no representations, warranties or guarantees to Developer regarding the Project. Developer assumes all risks and acknowledges that it is solely responsible for the development of this Project. Developer acknowledges, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, as follows: (i) This Agreement does not affect the rules and regulations that the Developer must comply with in order to implement all governmental approvals; (ii) Any future applications or requests to ACHD and City will be governed by rules and regulations of each of the agencies in effect at the time of such request; (iii) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to allow the Developer any waiver or relief from any of the processes, rules and regulations Developer must follow and comply with to obtain any future approvals from the City or ACHD; (v) Nothing herein shall be construed to grant any legal entitlement or vest any property right or other right to the Developer; and (vii) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to provide any claim or benefit to a third party. 8. General Provisions. (a) Agreement Addresses Process Only. The parties acknowledge and agree that nothing herein shall be deemed to limit or restrict the deliberation or action taken by ACHD to the extent that it has authority relating to its review and consideration of the permits related to the Project. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is intended solely to provide for the processes that will be applied to ACHD Impact Fee for the Project. (b) Severability. Every provision of this Agreement is intended to be severable. If any term or provision hereof is illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remainder of the Agreement. (c) Attorneys' Fees. Should any action be brought to interpret or enforce any provision hereof, or for damages for breach hereof, the prevailing party shall be entitled to such reasonable attorneys' fees as may be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction wherein such action is brought, including attorneys' fees on any appeal. (d) Assignment/Recording. The rights, benefits or obligations under this Agreement may not be assigned by Developer, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of both ACHD and the City, which may be withheld in either of their sole discretion. Without limiting the foregoing, the obligations to ACHD or the City contained herein shall run with the land and shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of the parties hereof, until such time as the Project is complete and ACHD has received full payment of the ACHD Impact Fee. A copy of this Agreement shall be recorded in the real property records of Ada County, Idaho.
