Springs Ranch development (the Development) comprising approximately 17.81 acres
within the City.
b. Developer has submitted and received the necessary approvals from the City for
Phase 7 of the Development (referred to here as the Subdivision), and this Agreement is
necessary to govern the completion of all necessary improvements in conjunction with
the recording of the Phase 7 Plat.
II. AGREEMENT
THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. Covered Property. The recitals above are incorporated into this Agreement. The
real property in the County of Grand, State of Utah, subject to this Agreement (the
Property) is described in Exhibit 1, attached.
2. Payment of Fees; Approved Land Uses. Developer agrees to pay all in -effect City
fees applicable to the Subdivision, including but not limited to, impact fees, connection

3. Required Improvements. Developer shall construct all of the improvements on

Page 2 of 9
2 (the Required Improvements), including: a) private sanitary sewer lines, manholes, and
other improvements; b) private culinary water lines, fire hydrants, and valves; and c)
gravel roadway, concrete v-pans, curbs, gutter, and sidewalks. Required Improvements
shall include the improvements shown on the Construction Plans, attached as Exhibit 3.
4, Improvements to be Completed in Conformance with Construction Plans. All
Required Improvements shall be constructed in a workmanlike manner and in conformity
with the approved Construction Plans. No deviations from the Construction Plans shall be
permitted, except as authorized in writing by the City Engineer upon a showing of good
cause. In addition, all Required Improvements shall be completed in conformance with
the City of Moab Public Improvement Specifications, building codes, and all state and
federal regulations, as applicable.
5. Timeline for Completion. Construction of all Required Improvements shall be
completed within one hundred eighty (180) days from the Effective Date of this
Agreement.
a). A reasonable extension of time for the completion of the Required
Improvements may be granted, at the discretion of the City Council, upon
a showing by the Developer that there is good cause for an extension and
that the work has been diligently prosecuted from the Effective Date of
this Agreement. Without limiting this provision, good cause may include
an extension of time due to the need to complete building construction
prior to the completion of curbing, sidewalks, or landscaping, or as
otherwise needed to provide for orderly construction and avoid damage
to improvements in the course of other construction.
b). If the construction of the Required Improvements is not completed and
accepted within the timelines specified herein, or as lawfully extended,
then the Subdivision of the Property and all development approvals shall
be deemed lapsed and shall have no further effect.
6. Lot Sales, Building Permits, Plat Recording. No Building Permits will be issued until
such time as all of the Required Improvements are completed and, with respect to public
improvements (if applicable), accepted by the City, except that building permits may be
issued if Developer provides a Financial Assurance to the City conforming to Section Eight,
below. No final plat for the Subdivision shall be executed by the City or submitted for
recording until such time as either: a) all of the Required Improvements are completed
in accordance with this Agreement and, with respect to public improvements, accepted
by the City; or b) a Financial Assurance conforming to Section Eight is delivered to the
City. Developer shall not convey or purport to convey any lot within the Subdivision prior
to the recording of the final plat. Any purported conveyance of lots by Developer prior to

Club Utah Subdivision Improvements Agreement, Phase 7
Page 3 of 9
Agreement, shall be void.
7. Acceptance of Improvements, Warranty. All of the public improvements
comprising the Required Improvements (if any) shall be subject to quality assurance
testing and inspection as specified in the Construction Plans and/or applicable reference
standards. Developer or its authorized representative shall provide not less than forty
eight (48) hours minimum notification to City when inspection is required. The costs
associated with such testing and inspection shall be the responsibility of Developer. Any

of the Developer. Any work which is covered up prior to inspection may be rejected, in
which case Developer shall be solely responsible for exposing the work and arranging for
inspection.
a). The acceptance by the City of the public improvements comprising the
Required Improvements following completion and satisfactory inspection
shall constitute a dedication and conveyance by the Developer to the City
of all such improvements. Developer shall convey all public improvements
to the City free and clear of any mechanic liens, claims, or other
encumbrances.
b). Developer warrants that all public improvements dedicated to the City
shall be constructed in a workmanlike manner, in accordance with
approved plans and specifications, and that all such improvements shall be
free of defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one (1) year
from the date of acceptance by the City. Developer shall promptly repair
or replace any defective work following receipt of written notice under this
warranty from the City.
c). Developer additionally warrants that all public improvements shall be
delivered free and clear of any mechanic liens or other encumbrances. The
City may require receipt of executed mechanic lien releases as a condition
precedent to dedication of public improvements.
8. Financial Assurance. If the Required Improvements are not completed within the
one hundred eighty (180) day deadline specified in this Agreement, or if Developer desires
to record a final plat or obtain a building permit in advance of the completion of all of the
Required Improvements, then the Developer may, subject to approval by the City, deliver
a Financial Assurance, in a form acceptable to the City for the use and benefit of City and
to secure the completion of the Required Improvements which remain to be completed.
The Financial Assurance shall be in the form of a performance/payment bond, escrow
account, letter of credit, cash deposit with the City, or other financial instrument
approved by the City Attorney in an amount which is not less than ninety six thousand
four hundred sixty two dollars and fifty cents ($96,462.50). The amount of the Financial
Club Utah Subdivision Improvements Agreement, Phase 7
Page 4 of 9
Assurance represents one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of the construction cost
set forth in the Plat and Construction Plans of Exhibits 2 and 3. If a Financial Assurance is
approved according to this Section Eight, Developer shall have up to one hundred eighty
(180) additional days from the Effective Date of this Agreement in which to complete the
Required Improvements.
9. Cease and Desist Notice. If the Required Improvements have not been
completed within the time provided in this Agreement or, in lieu of same, a Financial
Assurance approved pursuant to Section Eight, above, then the City may issue an
immediate cease and desist order to Developer and all work shall be discontinued until
such time as an acceptable Financial Assurance has been established. If Developer fails to
take timely steps to deliver an acceptable Financial Assurance or complete the Required
Improvements, then the City may record in the land records an Affidavit of Lapse of
Plat/Plan and invoke such other remedies as may be available under this Agreement or at
law.
10. Partial Releases of Financial Assurance. Upon partial completion of any class of
improvements within the Required Improvements Developer may request a partial
release of the Financial Assurance. The amount of the release shall be equal to the
agreed cost of the completed improvements, as determined by the City Engineer. Partial
releases shall not be made for partial completion of a class of improvements.

be presented to City:

supplied by City;

required for the completed improvements;

the work for all items that were estimated on the basis of
weight/quantity; and

and incorporated in to the work for which a partial release is
being requested.
b). The partial release request shall be reviewed for completeness and
accuracy by City Public Works Director and/or City Engineer. The City may
adjust the amount of the request if field inspection shows that quantities
are not accurate, or all items of work have not been completed in
accordance with the approved Construction Plans.
c). City shall process a release request promptly following receipt of a
complete application.
