Page 4
15.
installed which relates to the percentage of improvements that have been installed

of improvements upon the land which is the subject of this Agreement; provided,

That DEVELOPER agrees that those portions of the water main or the sanitary
sewer line, for which the CITY has expressly agreed to enter into a late comers
agreement, if any, for including any water or sewer line extensions, increased line
size or capacity, are required because of future service needs originating from
properties not owned by DEVELOPER and located within the vicinity of the
subject development; that sound planning requires construction thereof at the
present time in order to accommodate future expansion and development. In
recognition of the cost savings which can be accomplished by construction of such
excess capacity and/or improvements concurrently with the facilities to be
constructed for DEVELOPER's purpo~, and the impracticality or impossibility
of constructing such excess capacity and/or improvements separately or at a later
time, DEVELOPER agrees to design and construct such facilities subject to the
CITY's agreement to enter into a late comers agreement to reimburse
DEVELOPER for a portion of the costs of such excess capacity. DEVELOPER
agrees to obtain three independent bona fide bids for the performance of such
work from qualified and responsible contractors and shall dèliver copies of such
bids to the CITY prior to the commencement of such work. Such bids shall be
solicited and itemized in a manner which allows clear and specific identification
of that portion of the construction work for which the CITY may possibly agree
to enter into a late comers agreement. The CITY's obligation to enter into a late
comers agreement to help DEVELOPER to pay for such costs shall be limited to
the lowest of such bids irrespective of whether the lowest bidder is in fact selected
by DEVELOPER to perform the work.
16.
That DEVELOPER agrees that no Certificates of OccuJlancy will be issued until
all improvements are completed, unless the CITY and the DEVELOPER have
TURTLE CREEK SUBDIVISION DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT

18.
20.
entered into an addendum agreement stating when the improvements will be
completed in a phased development; in any event, no Certificates of Occl.\Pancy
shall be issued in any phase in which the improvements have not been installed,
completed, and accepted by the CITY.
That DEVELOPER agrees, in recognition of the unique and peculiar
circumstances relative to this development, to the special conditions set forth in
Exhibit "B" attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof; and agrees
to construct a perimeter fence around the entire parcel prior to any construction,
except where roadways and streets for access are located and except where the
CITY has agreed that such fencing is not necessary.
