Agreement, the City may take such action as it deems appropriate to control erosion
and sediment transport at the Developer's expense. The City Engineer will endeavor
to notify the Developer in advance of any proposed action, but failure to do so will

barricaded and closed. The Developer must maintain a smooth roadway surface
and provide proper surface drainage. The City will not be responsible for reshaping
or damage to the street base, the street surfacing, the curb and gutter or utilities
because of snow plowing operations. The provision of City snow plowing service
does not constitute final acceptance of the streets by the City.
The Developer is responsible for cleaning and maintenance of the storm
sewer system (including, but not limited to, ponds, pipes, catch basins, culverts and
swales) within the Project area. The Developer must follow all instructions it
receives from the City Engineer concerning the cleaning and maintenance of the
