<br />14. Contingency for Development Approvals. <br />A. The tract of property owned by each of the Parties and intended to be served by the Facilities is <br />vacant and undeveloped, and is subject to subdivision platting and zoning approvals by the City that <br />will affect the use of the property and the need for utility facilities. The Parties each agree to file all <br />required applications for such approvals, and to pursue the approval of the applications with their <br />best efforts. The City agrees to process these applications in accordance with applicable laws and <br />ordinances and to render decisions on the applications in a timely manner. In the event that a <br />platting or zoning approval requested by a Party is finally denied by the City prior to completion of <br />the Project, that Party may exercise one of the following options: <br />1. If the Project Manager has not yet executed the construction contract for the Project, the Party <br />may withdraw from this Agreement by giving notice to the other Patiies. The withdrawal will <br />take effect ten days after the date the Party delivers the notices to the other Parties. Upon any <br />such withdrawal, all of the Parties will be responsible for payment of their respective <br />percentages of Project costs to the date of withdrawal. The Project Manager will refund any <br />escrowed funds of a withdrawing Party in excess of the Party's respective share of expenses, <br />within 30 days of the date of withdrawal. The Engineer will calculate an a(~justment to the cost <br />sharing percentages in the attached Exhibit C to reflect the Party's withdrawal with respect to <br />remaining Project costs, and the Project Manager will provide a copy of this calculation to the <br />remaining Parties. <br />2. If the Project Manager has executed the construction contract for the Project, the Party may <br />offer to assign its interest in this Agreement to the other Parties, or to other owners of land that <br />may be served by the Facilities. The remaining Parties agree to honor any such assignment, <br />subject to the terms of this Agreement and the assignee's compliance with the obligations of the <br />assignor in this Agreement. <br />B. If the withdrawal by one or more of the Parties causes the City's adjusted share of the total <br />Project costs to exceed $732,640.18, the City reserves the right to direct the Engineer, through the <br />Project Manager, to reduce the scope of the Project, as long as the capacity in the Facilities remains <br />sufficient to cover the reservations identified for the other Parties. If the City elects to reduce the <br />Project scope, the City will notify the Project Manager in writing, and the Engineer will perform all <br />design services necessitated by the reduction (to be paid for at the sole cost of the City), and will <br />calculate an adjustment to the cost sharing percentages in the attached Exhibit C to ref1ect the <br />reduction in scope. <br /> <br />15. Applicable Laws; Impact Fees. A. This Agreement and the provision of wastewater service <br />through the Facilities are subject to all valid and applicable ordinances, fees (including City <br />wastewater impact fees as specified in paragraph 15.B), rules, regulations, and laws of all <br />governmental agencies having lawful jurisdiction over them. <br />B. The City agrees that wastewater impact fees charged to each of the Parties for their respective <br />Reserved Capacities under Paragraph 8 during the Reservation Period above will, at the option of <br />each such Party, be calculated at the City's prior wastewater impact fee amount of $527.00 per <br />service unit, using the City's wastewater impact fee service unit calculations formula in effect as <br />of September 30, 2002. <br /> <br />16. Entire Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the <br />parties hereto and may be amended only by a written document signed by the Parties.
