NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
contained herein the Developer and the City do hereby AGREE as follows:
1. Developer shall design, install, and construct, approximately 1,384 linear feet of
Sixteen-inch (16”) water distribution line, and approximately 4,107 linear feet of fifteen-

the “Oversized Facilities” as shown on Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporated herein by
reference
2. This Agreement is subject to and governed by the Denton Development Code
and any other applicable ordinances of the City of Denton.
3. Developer shall obtain, at Developer’s sole cost and expense, all necessary
permits, licenses, and easements. The easements, deeds, and plats therefor obtained by the
Developer shall be reviewed and approved as to form and substance by City. If the
Developer is unable to acquire needed easements, the Developer shall provide City with any
requested documentation of efforts to obtain such easements, including evidence of
negotiations and reasonable offers made to the affected property owners. Any easements for
the Oversized Facilities obtained by the Developer shall be assigned to City, if not taken in
City's name, prior to acceptance of the Oversized Facilities, and the Developer warrants clear
title to such easements and will defend City against any adverse claim made against such title.

prepared by the City’s engineering staff. If the City cannot justify the costs involved in any
such contract where City funds or pro-rata repayment is involved, the City shall have the
option and right to submit the proposal for sealed bids, and the Developer shall pay its
proportionate share of the acceptable low bid. Final approval of all oversize participation
agreements between the City and the Developer shall come from the City Council after
recommendation from the Public Utilities Board unless the participation amount is less than
the expenditure level authorized by the City Manager.
6. The City shall not, in any case, be liable for any additional cost because of
delays in beginning, continuing, or completing construction; changes in the price or cost of
materials, supplies, or labor; unforeseen or unanticipated cost because of topography, soil,
subsurface, or other site conditions; differences in the calculated and actual per linear feet of
pipe or materials needed for the Oversized Facilities; the Developer’s decision as to the
contractors or subcontractors used to perform the work; or any other reason or cause,
specified or unspecified, relating to the construction of the Oversized Facilities.
7. Final payment to the Developer for oversize participation by the City shall
occur within sixty (60) days of the completion of the construction of the Oversized Facilities
or City Council’s approval whichever is later.
8. To determine the actual cost of the Oversized Facilities, City shall have the
right to inspect any and all records of the Developer, its agents, employees, contractors, or
subcontractors, and shall have the right to require the Developer to submit any necessary
information, documents, invoices, receipts, or other records to verify the actual cost of the
Oversized Facilities.
9. All notices, payments, or communications to be given or made pursuant to this
Agreement by the parties hereto, shall be sent to the Developer at the business address given
above and to the City Manager for City at the address given above.
10. The Developer shall indemnify and hold City harmless from any and all claims,
damages, loss, or liability of any kind whatsoever, by reason of injury to property or person
occasioned by any act or omission, neglect, or wrongdoing of the Developer, its officers,
agents, employees, invitees, contractors, or other persons with regard to the performance of
this Agreement; and the Developer shall, at its own cost and expense, defend and protect City
against any and all such claims and demands.
11. This instrument embodies the entire agreement of the parties hereto and there
are no promises, terms, conditions, or obligations other than those contained or incorporated
herein. This Agreement shall supersede all previous communications, representations, or
agreements, whether verbal or written, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject
matter of this Agreement.
12. This Agreement shall not be assigned by the Developer without the express
written consent of the City.
13. Any and all suits for any breach of this Agreement, or any other suit pertaining
to or arising out of this Agreement, shall be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in
