EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Staff requests that the City Council adopt Ordinance No. 995-2022 approving Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC's application for Commercial Cannabis Cultivation permit, Cannabis Development Agreement, Conditional Use Permit, and related land use entitlements.
DISCUSSION:
On November 8, 2016, the Control, Regulate, & Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act (“AUMA”) was approved by California voters via Proposition 64. The AUMA permits local jurisdictions to regulate and/or ban adult use cannabis cultivation, distribution and delivery, transportation, manufacturing, testing laboratories, dispensaries, and microbusiness facilities.
In June 2021, the City Council passed Ordinance No. 974-2021 which added Chapter 19.27 to the Barstow Municipal Code to permit commercial cannabis activities in the City. The ordinance went into effect on July 7, 2021. On October 4, 2021, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 977-2021, amending the City’s cannabis regulatory program ordinance.
All cannabis businesses must enter into a development agreement with the City that will be subject to council approval through the adoption of an ordinance under Government Code Section 65865. This application came before the Planning Commission for review at its October 10, 2022 meeting as part of consideration of a multi-tenant development agreement for all cannabis businesses coming before the Council tonight as all land use permits and statutory development agreements must first be presented to the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission recommended approval. The City Council considered the development agreement at its November 21, 2022 meeting and directed staff to return with individualized development agreement for each cannabis business that is being proposed. At its December 19, 2022 meeting, the City Council introduced the ordinance approving the development agreement and related entitlements for this cannabis facility.

NOW THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Barstow hereby ordains as follows:
Section 1. Incorporation of Recitals. The above set forth recitals and findings are true and correct and incorporated herein by reference, as if set forth herein in full.

A. DA 7 was reviewed and deemed correct and in compliance with Government Code Section 65865.2 and Chapter 19.46 of the Barstow Municipal Code; and B. DA 7, if approved, is in the best interests of the City because the cultivation increases commercial vibrancy in the City; and

D. The application to the City was made on forms approved, and contains all information required by the Director and is filed with the Department in compliance with Chapter 19.46; and

Section 5. CEQA. This ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to CEQA Guidelines§§ 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), 15061(b)(3) and 15378(b)(4). This ordinance will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment; it does not involve a "project" as defined by CEQA Guidelines § 15378; and it is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.

Further the City previously approved Ordinance No. 974-2021 on June 7, 2021 and Ordinance No. 977-2021 on October 4, 2021 and those Ordinances were exempt from CEQA under Business and Professions Code section 26055(h) which exempts from CEQA review the adoption of an ordinance, rule, or regulation, by a local jurisdiction that requires discretionary review and approval of permits, licenses, or other authorizations to engage in commercial cannabis activity. This Ordinance now acts to amend the Barstow Municipal Code as to procedural requirements.
Section 6. Severability. Should any provision of this Ordinance, or its application to any person or circumstance, be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unlawful, unenforceable or otherwise void, that determination shall have no effect on any other provision of this Ordinance or the application of this Ordinance to any other person or circumstance and, to that end, the provisions hereof are severable.
Section 7. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall take effect thirty days after adoption as provided by Government Code Section 36937.
Section 8. Construction. To the extent the provisions of the Barstow Municipal Code as amended by this Ordinance are substantially the same as the provisions of that Code as it read prior to the adoption of this ordinance, they shall be read as continuations of those earlier provisions and not as new enactments.
Section 9. Certification. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Ordinance and shall give notice of its adoption as required by law.

A. DA 7 was reviewed and deemed correct and in compliance with Government Code Section 65865.2 and Chapter 19.46 of the Barstow Municipal Code; and B. DA 7, if approved, is in the best interests of the City because the cultivation increases commercial vibrancy in the City; and

D. The application to the City was made on forms approved, and contains all information required by the Director and is filed with the Department in compliance with Chapter 19.46; and

To the extent the provisions of the Barstow Municipal Code as amended by this Ordinance are substantially the same as the provisions of that Code as it read prior to the adoption of this ordinance, they shall be read as continuations of those earlier provisions and not as new enactments.
Section 9. Certification. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Ordinance and shall give notice of its adoption as required by law. Pursuant to Government Code Section 36933, a summary of this Ordinance may be published and posted in lieu of publication and posting of the entire text.

In the event of alleged default or breach of any terms or conditions of this Agreement, the party alleging such default or breach shall give the other party not less than thirty (30) day notice in writing specifying the nature of the alleged default and the manner in which said default may be satisfactorily cured during any such thirty (30) day period, the party charged shall not be considered in default for purposes of termination or institution of legal proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if the alleged default is of such a nature that it cannot be cured within thirty (30) days, the alleged defaulting party shall not be deemed in default as long as such party commences to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.
After notice and expiration of the thirty (30) day period without a cure of such default, the other party to this Agreement, at its option, may terminate the Agreement or institute legal proceedings pursuant to this Agreement.
In general, each of the parties hereto may pursue any remedy at law or equity available for the breach of any provision of this Agreement, except that City shall not be liable in monetary damages, to Operator, to any mortgagee or lender, or to any successors in interest of Operator or mortgagee or lender, or to any other person, and Operator covenants on behalf of itself and all successors in interest to the Premises or any portion thereof, not to sue for damages or claim any damages.
1) For any breach of this Agreement or for any cause of action which arises out of this Agreement; or
2) For the impairment or restriction of any right or interest conveyed or provided under, with, or pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any impairment or restriction which Operator characterizes as a regulatory taking or inverse condemnation; or
3) Arising out of or connected with any dispute, controversy or issue regarding the application or interpretation or effect of the provisions of this Agreement.
b. Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge that money damages and remedies at law are inadequate, and specific performance and other non- monetary relief are particularly appropriate remedies for the enforcement of this Agreement and should be available to all parties for the following reasons:
13.c
Packet Pg. 189 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_redlined (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 23 -
1) Money damages are unavailable against City as provided in Section 15(a) above.
2) Due to the size, nature, and scope of the Project, it may not be practical or possible to restore the Premises to its natural condition once implementation of this Agreement has begun. After such implementation, Operator may be foreclosed from other choices it may have had to use the Premises or portions thereof. Operator has invested significant time and resources and performed extensive planning and processing of the Project in agreeing to the terms of this Agreement and will be investing even more significant time and resources in implementing the Project in reliance upon the terms of this Agreement, and it is not possible to determine the sum of money which would adequately compensate Operator for its efforts. By the same token, in the event that City issues any permit or other approval for a structure, and the public facilities, improvements, and infrastructure reasonably necessary to provide an adequate level of public services to that structure are not timely completed or Operator otherwise fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement, then it would not be possible to determine a sum of money that would adequately compensate City for the resulting hardship.
For the above reasons, City and Operator and agree that, notwithstanding any other language in this Agreement, damages would not be an adequate or appropriate remedy if City fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, specific performance of this Agreement is the only remedy which would compensate Operator if City fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement, and City hereby agrees that Operator shall be entitled to specific performance in the event of a default by City hereunder. Further, specific performance of this Agreement is the only remedy which would compensate City if Operator fails to carry out their obligations under this Agreement, and Operator hereby agree that City shall be entitled to specific performance in such event. c. Release. Except for those remedies set forth in Sections 15(a), 15(b), and this 15(c), Operator, for itself, its successors and assignees, hereby releases City, its officers, agents and employees from any and all claims, demands, actions, or suits of any kind or nature arising out of any liability, known or unknown, present or future, based or asserted, pursuant to Article 1, Section 19 of the California Constitution, the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution, or any other law or ordinance which seeks to impose any other liability or damage, whatsoever, upon City because it entered into this Agreement or because of the terms of this Agreement.
Operator acknowledges that it may have suffered, or may suffer, damages and other injuries that are unknown to it, or unknowable to it, at the time of its execution of this Agreement. Such fact notwithstanding, Operator agrees that the release provided in this Section 14(c) shall apply to such unknown or unknowable claims and damages. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Operator acknowledges the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provide:
13.c
Packet Pg. 190 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_redlined (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 24 -
“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”
Operator hereby waives, to the maximum legal extent, the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542 and all other statutes and judicial decisions of similar effect. d. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. In any action or proceeding between City and Operator brought to interpret or enforce this Agreement, or which in any way arises out of the existence of this Agreement or is based upon any term or provision contained herein, the “prevailing party” in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party, in addition to all other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled pursuant to this Agreement, the prevailing party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and litigation costs, in an amount to be determined by the court. The prevailing party shall be determined by the court in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1032. Fees and costs recoverable pursuant to this Section 14(e) include those incurred during any appeal from an underlying judgment and in the enforcement of any judgment rendered in any such action or proceeding.
e. Default. No building permit shall be issued or building permit application accepted for Operator for any structure on the Premises after Operator is determined by City to be in default of the terms and conditions of this Agreement until such default thereafter is cured such defaulting party or is waived by City. If City terminates this Agreement as to any Operator because of such Operator’s default, then City shall retain any and all benefits, including money or land received by City hereunder.
16. Third Party Litigation.
a. General Plan Litigation. City has determined that this Agreement is consistent with its General Plan and all applicable special plans. Operator has reviewed the General Plan and concurs with City’s determination.
City shall have no liability under this Agreement or otherwise for any failure of City to perform under this Agreement, or for the inability of Operator to develop the Premises as contemplated by the Agreement, including, but not limited to, if such failure to perform or inability to develop is the result of a judicial determination that the General Plan, or portions thereof, are invalid or inadequate or not in compliance with law, or that this Agreement.
b. Hold Harmless Agreement. Operator hereby agrees to, and shall hold City, its elective and appointive boards, commissions, officers, agents, attorney's, contractors, consultants and employees harmless from any liability for damage or claims for damage for personal injury, including death, as well as from claims for property damage which may arise from Operator or their respective contractors, subcontractors, agents, or employees’ operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by Operator, or by any of
13.c
Packet Pg. 191 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_redlined (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 25 -
Operator’s contractors, subcontractors, agents, or employees operations under this Agreement. Operator agrees to and shall defend City and its elective and appointive boards, commissions, officers, agents and employees from any suits or actions at law or in equity for damage caused, or alleged to have been caused, by reason of any of the aforesaid operations.
c. Indemnification. Operator shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City and its elective and appointive boards, commissions, officers, agents, attorney's, contractors, consultants, and employees against and from any and all liabilities, demands, claims, actions or proceedings and costs and expenses incidental thereto (including costs of defense, settlement and reasonable attorneys’ fees), which any or all of them may suffer, incur, be responsible for or pay out as a result of or in connection with any challenge to the legality, validity or adequacy of any of the following: (i) this Agreement and the concurrent and subsequent permits, licenses and entitlements approved for the Project or Premises, and all activities conducted under such entitlements; (ii) the environmental impact report, mitigated negative declaration or negative declaration, as the case may be, prepared in connection with the development of the Premises; (iii) any claims based on or alleging inverse condemnation by any person or entity with an interest in the Premises; and (iv) the proceedings undertaken in connection with the adoption or approval of any of the above.
In the event of any legal or equitable action or other proceeding instituted by any third party (including a governmental entity or official) challenging the validity of any provision of this Agreement or any portion thereof as set forth herein, the parties shall mutually cooperate with each other in defense of said action or proceeding. Notwithstanding the above, City, at is sole option, may tender the complete defense of any third-party challenge as described herein. In the event City elects to contract with special counsel to provide for such a defense, City shall meet and confer with Operator regarding the selection of counsel, and Operator shall pay all costs related to retention of such counsel. d. Environmental Contamination. Operator shall indemnify and hold City, its elective and appointive boards, commissions, officers, agents, attorney's, contractors, consultants and employees free and harmless from any liability, based or asserted, upon any act or omission of Operator, its officers, agents, employees, subcontractors, predecessors in interest, successors, assigns and independent contractors, excepting and acts or omissions of City as successor to any portions of the Premises dedicated or transferred to City by Operator, for any violation of any federal, state or local law, ordinance or regulation relating to industrial hygiene or to environmental conditions on, under or about the Premises, including, but not limited to, soil and groundwater conditions, and Operator shall defend, at its expense, including attorneys’ fees, City, its officers, agents and employees in any action based or asserted upon any such alleged act or omission. City may in its discretion participate in the defense of any such claim, action or proceeding. e. City to Approve Counsel. With respect to Sections 16(a) through 16(d), City shall approve any counsel which Operator selects, hires, or otherwise engages to defend City hereunder, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
17. California Environmental Quality Act. Operator shall reimburse City for any
13.c
Packet Pg. 192 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_redlined (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 26 -
and all costs incurred by City related to project review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Public Resources Code, §§21000-21189.3, and the Guidelines for California Environmental Quality Act, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, §§15000-15387. If reasonably requested by City, Operator shall conduct and pay for any required CEQA reviews and analyses.
18. Rules, Regulations, and Official Policies. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the rules, regulations, and official policies of City governing permitted uses of the land, governing density, and governing the design, improvements, and construction standards and specifications applicable to the development of the Project subject of this Agreement, shall be those rules, regulations, and official policies of City in force at the time of the execution of this Agreement. This Agreement does not prevent City, in subsequent actions applicable to the property, from applying new rules, regulations, and policies which do not conflict with those rules, regulations, and policies applicable to the property as set forth herein, nor does this Agreement prevent City from denying or conditionally approving any subsequent development project application based on such existing or new rules, regulations, or policies.
19. Commercial Cannabis Permit Conditions of Approval. Operator shall comply with all conditions of approval of the City-issued Commercial Cannabis Permit and Conditional Use Permit.
20. Periodic Reviews. This Agreement shall be subject to annual review by the City Manager. Operator and Landlord executing this Agreement, or successor in interest thereto, shall demonstrate good faith compliance with the terms of this Agreement. If, as a result of such periodic review, City finds and determines, based on substantial evidence, that Operator executing this Agreement, or successor in interest thereto, has not complied in good faith with the terms or conditions of this Agreement, City may terminate or modify this Agreement as to such noncompliant Operator (except no modification shall increase Operator’s liability nor reduce Operator’s rights), provided that City shall first provide Operator notice of its intent to terminate, with a detailed explanation as to why, and provide Operator the reasonable right to cure the same. a. Periodic Review. City Manager shall review this Agreement annually, on or before each anniversary of the Effective Date, in order to ascertain Operator’s good faith compliance with this Agreement. During the periodic review Operator shall be required to demonstrate good faith compliance with the terms of the Agreement, through submitting an annual monitoring report, records, or equivalent written materials to the Planning Department. Operator shall document any request for an extension of the term due to delays beyond the control of Operator under Section 12(e) or Section 24(j). Operator shall submit an annual review and administration fee deposit not to exceed City’s estimated internal and third-party costs associated with the review and administration of this Agreement during the succeeding year, consistent with Section 23(k) (“Deposit with City”) below. City shall provide Operator said estimate a reasonable time in advance of the annual review and administration fee deposit being due.
b. Conditional Use Permit. In addition to the CCP, Operator shall apply for and obtain a CUP for the establishment and operation of the Project. Operator’s operation
13.c
Packet Pg. 193 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_redlined (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 27 -
of any business at all times shall be required to comply with the terms of this Agreement and Operator’s CUP and CCP. Operator acknowledges and covenants that the CUP obtained by Operator via this Agreement shall run with the Premises and that this Agreement is binding upon, and the benefits of this Agreement inure to, all authorized successors-in-interest of the Owner, as landlord, as applicable and approved by the City via the assignment approval provisions of Section 21.
c. Special Review. City Council may order a special review of compliance with this Agreement at any time. The City Manager or his or her designee shall conduct such special review. During a special review, Operator shall be required to demonstrate good faith compliance with the terms of this Agreement. The burden of proof on this issue shall be on Operator.
d. Special Review Hearing. At the time and place set for the review hearing, Operator shall be given an opportunity to be heard. If City Council finds, based upon clear and convincing evidence, that Operator has not complied in good faith with the terms or conditions of this Agreement, City Council may terminate this Agreement as to such party notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, or modify this Agreement as to such party and impose such conditions as are reasonably necessary to protect the interests of City. The decision of City Council shall be final, subject only to judicial review pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 1094.5. e. Certificate of Agreement Compliance. If, after a periodic or special review, Operator is found to be in compliance with this Agreement, and if Master Lessee and/or any Operator requests it, City shall issue a Certificate of Agreement Compliance (“Certificate”) to such requesting party stating that after the most recent periodic or special review, and based upon the information known or made known to the City Manager and City Council, that (i) this Agreement remains in effect and (ii) Operator is not in default.
City shall not be bound by a Certificate if a default existed at the time of the periodic or special review but was concealed from or otherwise not known to the City Manager and City Council, regardless of whether the Certificate is relied upon by assignees or other transferees or Operator.
f. Failure to Conduct Review. City’s failure to conduct a periodic review of this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. g. Cost of Review. The costs incurred by City in connection with the periodic reviews shall be borne by Operator subject to such review.
21. Assignment by Owner, Master Lessee or Operator. Owner or Operator shall not transfer, delegate, sublet or assign its interest, rights, duties, and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of City Council, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Owner or Operator shall submit a transfer application to the City Manager or City Manager’s designee and pay any applicable transfer fee. The proposed transferee must show proof of lawful transfer of possession of the applicable location as may be acceptable to the City. Owner or Operator acknowledges it may take the City approximately three (3) months to process a transfer
13.c

application.
Any assignment, delegation, subletting or assignment without the prior written consent of City Council shall be null and void. Any transfer, delegation, subletting or assignment by Owner or Operator as authorized herein shall be effective only if and upon the party to whom such transfer, delegation, subletting, or assignment is made is issued a CCP as required under the Barstow Municipal Code.
22. Operating Commercial Cannabis Facility. Any party to this Agreement, or successor in interest thereto, including Operator, shall not operate a commercial cannabis facility authorized under the municipal code unless:
a. It is the holder of a valid CCP issued by City in accordance with the procedures and requirements or the Enabling Ordinance, and Chapter 19.27 of the Barstow Municipal Code; and,
b. It is the holder of a valid license issued by the State of California to operate a commercial cannabis business.
23. Notice. Any notice or communication required hereunder between City and Operator must be in writing, and may be given either personally, by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), or by Federal Express, UPS or other similar couriers providing overnight delivery. If personally delivered, a notice shall be deemed to have been given when delivered to the Party to whom it is addressed.

24. Miscellaneous Provisions.
a. Amendment or Cancellation. This Agreement may be amended, or canceled in whole or in part, only by the written mutual consent of the parties to this Agreement or their successors in interest, except those minor amendments that do not affect a substantive provision of this Agreement may be approved by the City Manager on behalf of the City.
The decision whether a proposed amendment is “minor” shall be in the exclusive discretion of the City Manager.
b. Waiver. Waiver by City of any one or more of the terms or conditions of this Agreement shall not be construed as waiver of any other term or condition under this Agreement.
c. Enforcement/Reserved Powers. Unless amended or canceled pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall be enforceable by any party hereto, or successor in interest thereto, notwithstanding any subsequent change in any applicable general or specific plan, zoning, subdivision or building regulation, or municipal code amendment adopted by City that conflicts with the terms of this Agreement. However, this Agreement is subject to the City's “Reserved Powers.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Reserved Powers” means the rights and authority excepted from this Agreement's restrictions on the City's police powers and which are instead reserved to the City. The Reserved Powers include the powers to enact regulations or take future discretionary actions after the Effective Date of this Agreement that: (1) are necessary to protect the public health and safety, and are generally applicable on a City-wide basis (except in the event of natural disasters as found by the City Council such as floods, earthquakes and similar acts of God); (2) are amendments to California Cannabis Laws or California Uniform Codes, as adopted by the City of Barstow, and/or the Barstow Municipal Code, as applicable, regarding the construction, engineering and design standards for private and public improvements to be constructed on the
13.c
Packet Pg. 196 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_redlined (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 30 -
Premises; (3) are necessary to comply with state or federal laws and regulations; or (4) involve sign and parking ordinances and guidelines, changes to the City’s zoning laws, Specific Plan or the City's General Plan, whether adopted previous or subsequent to the Effective Date of this Agreement).
If any City ordinance, rule or regulation or addition to the Barstow Municipal Code is enacted or imposed by a citizen-sponsored initiative or referendum after the Effective Date that would conflict with this Agreement or an associated Commercial Cannabis Permit, business license or other authorizations and City approvals, or reduce development rights or assurances provided to the Operator in this Agreement, then such changes, additions or deletions to the Barstow Municipal Code shall not be applied to the Premises or Project; provided, however, the parties acknowledge that the City's approval of this Agreement is a legislative action subject to referendum. The parties shall cooperate with each other and undertake such reasonable actions as may be appropriate to ensure this Agreement remains in full force and effect and is implemented in accordance with its terms and to the fullest extent permitted by state or federal law.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, site improvements contemplated by this Agreement shall be completed pursuant to the development standards and design guidelines applicable at the time of development. e. Joint and Several Liability. Operator shall be jointly and severally liable for any amount due under this Agreement, and any breach of this Agreement or failure to pay by one Party shall also constitute a breach of this Agreement by the other Party. f. Severability. If any part of this Agreement is found to conflict with applicable state laws or regulations, such part shall be inoperative, null, and void insofar as it conflicts with said laws or regulations or modified or suspended as may be necessary to comply with such state laws or regulations, but the remainder of this Agreement shall continue to be in full force and effect.
g. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The execution of this Agreement may be by actual, facsimile, or electronic signature.
h. Jurisdiction. The law governing this Agreement shall be that of the State of California. Any suit brought by any party against any other party arising out of the performance of this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, shall be filed and maintained in the County of San Bernardino Superior Court.
i. Disclaimer. Despite California Cannabis Laws and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, any CUP, or any CCP issued pertaining to Operator, or the Premises, California commercial cannabis cultivators, transporters, distributors, or possessors may still be subject to arrest by state or federal officers and prosecuted under state or federal
13.c
Packet Pg. 197 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_redlined (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 31 -
law. The Federal Controlled Substances Act, 21 USC § 801, et seq., prohibits the manufacture, distribution, and possession of cannabis without any exemptions for medical use.
j. Force Majeure. If delays are caused by unforeseen events beyond the control of Operator, such delays will entitle Operator to an extension of time as provided in this section. Such unforeseen events (“Force Majeure”) shall mean war, insurrection, acts of God, local, state or national emergencies, strikes and other labor difficulties beyond the party’s control, or any default by City hereunder, which Force Majeure event substantially interferes with the development, construction or operation of the Project. k. Constructive Notice and Acceptance. Every person who after the Effective Date and recording of this Agreement owns or acquires any right, title, or interest to any portion of the Premises, is and shall be conclusively deemed to have consented and agreed to every provision contained herein, whether or not any reference to this Agreement is contained in the instrument by which such person acquired an interest in the Premises, and all rights and interests of such person in the Premises shall be subject to the terms, requirements, and provisions of this Agreement.
l. Binding Effect of Agreement. The Parties agree that the Recitals above are true and correct and intend to be bound by same. Except as otherwise provided, the burdens of this Agreement are binding upon, and the benefits of this Agreement inure to, all authorized successors-in-interest of the Parties and constitute covenants which run with the Premises. In order to provide constructive notice thereof, the City Clerk will record this Agreement with the San Bernardino County Recorder within the period required by Government Code Section 65868.5.
m. Project as a Private Undertaking. It is specifically understood and agreed by and between the parties hereto that the development of the Project is a private development, that neither party is acting as the agent of the other in any respect hereunder, and that each party is an independent contracting entity with respect to the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Agreement. No partnership, joint venture or other association of any kind is formed by this Agreement. The only relationship between the City and Operator is that of a government entity regulating the development of private property and developer of such property.
n. Changes to Project. The Parties acknowledge that changes to the Project or Development Plans and related approvals may be appropriate and mutually desirable to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement. This Agreement shall not prevent the City from applying, with the consent or at the request of Operator, Subsequent Land Use Regulations or Subsequent Development Approvals that do not directly conflict with the Project, Premises or Development Plan authorized under this Agreement. The granting of one such change, or request shall not obligate the City to grant other similar changes or requests. As used herein, “Subsequent Development Approvals” include, without limitation, all excavation, grading, building, construction, demolition, encroachment or street improvement permits, occupancy certificates, utility connection authorizations, or
13.c
Packet Pg. 198 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_redlined (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 32 -
other non-discretionary permits or approvals necessary, convenient or appropriate for the Project. As used herein, “Subsequent Land Use Regulations” means ordinances, resolutions and codes adopted or approved by the City after the Effective Date of this Agreement governing the development and use of the land, including general plan amendments, zone changes, variances or conditional use permits affecting the permitted use of the land including density or intensity of use, subdivision requirements, the maximum height and size of proposed buildings, the provisions of reservation or Dedication of land for public purposes, and the design, improvement and construction and initial occupancy standards and specifications applicable to the Development of the Premises.
o. Conflicting Federal or State Rules. In the event that any conflicting federal or state laws or regulations, enacted after the Effective Date, prevent, or preclude compliance with one or more provisions of this Agreement or require changes in plans, maps or permits approved by the City, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to those provisions not affected; and
(i) Notice of Conflict. Either party, upon learning of any such matter, will provide the other party with written notice thereof and provide a copy of any such law, regulation, or policy together with a statement of how any such matter conflicts with the provisions of this Agreement; and
(ii) Modification Conferences. The parties shall, within thirty (30) days of the notice referenced to in the preceding subsection, meet and confer in good faith and attempt to modify this Agreement to bring it into compliance with any such federal or state law or regulation.
(iii) City Council Hearings. In the event the City believes that an amendment to this Agreement is necessary due to the effect of any federal or state law or regulation, the proposed amendment shall be scheduled for hearing before the City Council. The City Council shall determine the exact nature of the amendment necessitated by such federal or state law or regulation. Operator shall have the right to offer oral and written testimony at the hearing. Any modification ordered by the City Council pursuant to such hearing is subject to judicial review in accordance with California law. (iv) Minor Amendments. A minor modification is a modification that does not modify the material terms of this Agreement including (1) the Term; (2) Facility Operations; (3) Indemnification; and (4) Fees. Minor Modifications shall not require a public hearing prior to execution of the modification to this Agreement. Either Party may propose a minor modification, consent to which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by the other Party.
Upon the written request of Developer for a modification to this Agreement, the City Manager or his/her designee shall determine: (1) whether, in his/her reasonable judgment, the requested modification constitutes a minor modification as defined herein; (2) whether the requested modification is consistent with applicable law (other than that portion of this Agreement sought to be modified); and (3) whether, in his/her reasonable judgment, the requested modification tends to promote the goals of this Agreement. If the City Manager or his/her designee determines that the
13.c
Packet Pg. 199 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_redlined (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 33 -
requested modification is minor modification that is consistent with applicable law and tends to promote the goals of this Agreement, the proposed modification will be approved by the City as a minor modification, and a written modification will be executed by the Parties and attached to this Agreement. Any such minor modification shall not be deemed an “amendment” to this Agreement under Government Code Section 65858.
(v) City Cooperation. The City shall cooperate with Operator in securing any City permits, licenses or other authorizations that may be required as a result of any amendment resulting from actions initiated by the City. As required by this Agreement, Operator shall be responsible to pay all applicable fees in connection with securing of such permits, licenses, or other authorizations.
q. Effective Date. “Effective Date” means the date on which all of the following are true: (i) thirty (30) days have elapsed since the second reading of the Ordinance adopting and approving this Development Agreement and (ii) all Exhibits to this Agreement are finalized, executed and notarized by all affected parties (if applicable) and attached hereto; provided, however, that if these conditions have not been fully satisfied by Operator the Effective Date may not thereafter occur and this Agreement may not thereafter become effective.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement on the day and year first above written.

15. Defaults and Remedies.
a. Remedies in General. It is acknowledged by the parties that City would not have entered into this Agreement if it were to be liable in damages under this Agreement, or with respect to this Agreement or the application thereof, except as hereinafter expressly provided. Subject to extensions of time by mutual consent in writing, failure to delay by either party to perform any term or provision of this Agreement beyond a reasonable notice and cure period shall constitute a default. In the event of alleged default or breach of any terms or conditions of this Agreement, the party alleging such default or breach shall give the other party not less than thirty (30) day notice in writing specifying the nature of the alleged default and the manner in which said default may be satisfactorily cured during any such thirty (30) day period, the party charged shall not be considered in default for purposes of termination or institution of legal proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if the alleged default is of such a nature that it cannot be cured within thirty (30) days, the alleged defaulting party shall not be deemed in default as long as such party commences to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.
After notice and expiration of the thirty (30) day period without a cure of such default, the other party to this Agreement, at its option, may terminate the Agreement or institute legal proceedings pursuant to this Agreement.
In general, each of the parties hereto may pursue any remedy at law or equity available for the breach of any provision of this Agreement, except that City shall not be liable in monetary damages, to Operator, to any mortgagee or lender, or to any successors in interest of Operator or mortgagee or lender, or to any other person, and Operator
13.d
Packet Pg. 234 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_clean copy (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 22 -
covenants on behalf of itself and all successors in interest to the Premises or any portion thereof, not to sue for damages or claim any damages.
1) For any breach of this Agreement or for any cause of action which arises out of this Agreement; or
2) For the impairment or restriction of any right or interest conveyed or provided under, with, or pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any impairment or restriction which Operator characterizes as a regulatory taking or inverse condemnation; or
3) Arising out of or connected with any dispute, controversy or issue regarding the application or interpretation or effect of the provisions of this Agreement.
b. Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge that money damages and remedies at law are inadequate, and specific performance and other non- monetary relief are particularly appropriate remedies for the enforcement of this Agreement and should be available to all parties for the following reasons:
1) Money damages are unavailable against City as provided in Section 15(a) above.
2) Due to the size, nature, and scope of the Project, it may not be practical or possible to restore the Premises to its natural condition once implementation of this Agreement has begun. After such implementation, Operator may be foreclosed from other choices it may have had to use the Premises or portions thereof. Operator has invested significant time and resources and performed extensive planning and processing of the Project in agreeing to the terms of this Agreement and will be investing even more significant time and resources in implementing the Project in reliance upon the terms of this Agreement, and it is not possible to determine the sum of money which would adequately compensate Operator for its efforts. By the same token, in the event that City issues any permit or other approval for a structure, and the public facilities, improvements, and infrastructure reasonably necessary to provide an adequate level of public services to that structure are not timely completed or Operator otherwise fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement, then it would not be possible to determine a sum of money that would adequately compensate City for the resulting hardship.
For the above reasons, City and Operator and agree that, notwithstanding any other language in this Agreement, damages would not be an adequate or appropriate remedy if City fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, specific performance of this Agreement is the only remedy which would compensate Operator if City fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement, and City hereby agrees that Operator shall be entitled to specific performance in the event of a default by City hereunder. Further, specific performance of this Agreement is the only remedy which would compensate City if Operator fails to
13.d
Packet Pg. 235 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_clean copy (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 23 -
carry out their obligations under this Agreement, and Operator hereby agree that City shall be entitled to specific performance in such event. c. Release. Except for those remedies set forth in Sections 15(a), 15(b), and this 15(c), Operator, for itself, its successors and assignees, hereby releases City, its officers, agents and employees from any and all claims, demands, actions, or suits of any kind or nature arising out of any liability, known or unknown, present or future, based or asserted, pursuant to Article 1, Section 19 of the California Constitution, the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution, or any other law or ordinance which seeks to impose any other liability or damage, whatsoever, upon City because it entered into this Agreement or because of the terms of this Agreement.
Operator acknowledges that it may have suffered, or may suffer, damages and other injuries that are unknown to it, or unknowable to it, at the time of its execution of this Agreement. Such fact notwithstanding, Operator agrees that the release provided in this Section 14(c) shall apply to such unknown or unknowable claims and damages. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Operator acknowledges the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provide:
“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”

d. Special Review Hearing. At the time and place set for the review hearing, Operator shall be given an opportunity to be heard. If City Council finds, based upon clear and convincing evidence, that Operator has not complied in good faith with the terms or conditions of this Agreement, City Council may terminate this Agreement as to such party notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, or modify this Agreement as to such party and impose such conditions as are reasonably necessary to protect the interests of City. The decision of City Council shall be final, subject only to judicial review pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 1094.5. e. Certificate of Agreement Compliance.

b. Waiver. Waiver by City of any one or more of the terms or conditions of this Agreement shall not be construed as waiver of any other term or condition under this Agreement.
c. Enforcement/Reserved Powers. Unless amended or canceled pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall be enforceable by any party hereto, or successor in interest thereto, notwithstanding any subsequent change in any applicable general or specific plan, zoning, subdivision or building regulation, or municipal code amendment adopted by City that conflicts with the terms of this Agreement. However, this Agreement is subject to the City's “Reserved Powers.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Reserved Powers” means the rights and authority excepted from this Agreement's restrictions on the City's police powers and which are instead reserved to the City. The Reserved Powers include the powers to enact regulations or take future discretionary actions after the Effective Date of this Agreement that: (1) are necessary to protect the public health and safety, and are generally applicable on a City-wide basis (except in the event of natural disasters as found by the City Council such as floods, earthquakes and similar acts of God); (2) are amendments to California Cannabis Laws or California Uniform Codes, as adopted by the City of Barstow, and/or the Barstow Municipal Code, as applicable, regarding the construction, engineering and design standards for private and public improvements to be constructed on the Premises; (3) are necessary to comply with state or federal laws and regulations; or (4) involve sign and parking ordinances and guidelines, changes to the City’s zoning laws, Specific Plan or the City's General Plan, whether adopted previous or subsequent to the Effective Date of this Agreement).
If any City ordinance, rule or regulation or addition to the Barstow Municipal Code is enacted or imposed by a citizen-sponsored initiative or referendum after the Effective Date that would conflict with this Agreement or an associated Commercial Cannabis Permit, business license or other authorizations and City approvals, or reduce development rights or assurances provided to the Operator in this Agreement, then such changes, additions or deletions to the Barstow Municipal Code shall not be applied to the Premises or Project; provided, however, the parties acknowledge that the City's approval of this Agreement is a legislative action subject to referendum. The parties shall cooperate with each other and undertake such reasonable actions as may be appropriate to ensure this Agreement remains in full force and effect and is implemented in accordance with its terms and to the fullest extent permitted by state or federal law.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, site improvements contemplated by this Agreement shall be completed pursuant to the development standards and design guidelines applicable at the time of development. e. Joint and Several Liability. Operator shall be jointly and severally liable for any amount due under this Agreement, and any breach of this Agreement or failure to pay by one Party shall also constitute a breach of this Agreement by the other Party. f. Severability. If any part of this Agreement is found to conflict with applicable state laws or regulations, such part shall be inoperative, null, and void insofar
13.d
Packet Pg. 242 Attachment: Desert Bloom DA_clean copy (5231 : Adoption of Ordinance 995-2022 Desert Bloom Holdings, LLC Comm. Cannabis) - 30 -
as it conflicts with said laws or regulations or modified or suspended as may be necessary to comply with such state laws or regulations, but the remainder of this Agreement shall continue to be in full force and effect.
g. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The execution of this Agreement may be by actual, facsimile, or electronic signature.
h. Jurisdiction. The law governing this Agreement shall be that of the State of California.

The Federal Controlled Substances Act, 21 USC § 801, et seq., prohibits the manufacture, distribution, and possession of cannabis without any exemptions for medical use.
j. Force Majeure. If delays are caused by unforeseen events beyond the control of Operator, such delays will entitle Operator to an extension of time as provided in this section. Such unforeseen events (“Force Majeure”) shall mean war, insurrection, acts of God, local, state or national emergencies, strikes and other labor difficulties beyond the party’s control, or any default by City hereunder, which Force Majeure event substantially interferes with the development, construction or operation of the Project. k.

m. Project as a Private Undertaking. It is specifically understood and agreed by and between the parties hereto that the development of the Project is a private development, that neither party is acting as the agent of the other in any respect hereunder, and that each party is an independent contracting entity with respect to the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Agreement. No partnership, joint venture or other association of any kind is formed by this Agreement. The only relationship between the City and Operator is that of a government entity regulating the development of private property and developer of such property.
n. Changes to Project. The Parties acknowledge that changes to the Project or Development Plans and related approvals may be appropriate and mutually desirable to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement. This Agreement shall not prevent the City from applying, with the consent or at the request of Operator, Subsequent Land Use Regulations or Subsequent Development Approvals that do not directly conflict with the Project, Premises or Development Plan authorized under this Agreement. The granting of one such change, or request shall not obligate the City to grant other similar changes or requests. As used herein, “Subsequent Development Approvals” include, without limitation, all excavation, grading, building, construction, demolition, encroachment or street improvement permits, occupancy certificates, utility connection authorizations, or other non-discretionary permits or approvals necessary, convenient or appropriate for the Project.

In the event that any conflicting federal or state laws or regulations, enacted after the Effective Date, prevent, or preclude compliance with one or more provisions of this Agreement or require changes in plans, maps or permits approved by the City, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to those provisions not affected; and
(i) Notice of Conflict. Either party, upon learning of any such matter, will provide the other party with written notice thereof and provide a copy of any such law, regulation, or policy together with a statement of how any such matter conflicts with the provisions of this Agreement; and
(ii) Modification Conferences. The parties shall, within thirty (30) days of the notice referenced to in the preceding subsection, meet and confer in good faith and attempt to modify this Agreement to bring it into compliance with any such federal or state law or regulation.

(iii) City Council Hearings. In the event the City believes that an amendment to this Agreement is necessary due to the effect of any federal or state law or regulation, the proposed amendment shall be scheduled for hearing before the City Council. The City Council shall determine the exact nature of the amendment necessitated by such federal or state law or regulation. Operator shall have the right to offer oral and written testimony at the hearing. Any modification ordered by the City Council pursuant to such hearing is subject to judicial review in accordance with California law. (iv) Minor Amendments. A minor modification is a modification that does not modify the material terms of this Agreement including (1) the Term; (2) Facility Operations; (3) Indemnification; and (4) Fees. Minor Modifications shall not require a public hearing prior to execution of the modification to this Agreement. Either Party may propose a minor modification, consent to which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by the other Party.
Upon the written request of Developer for a modification to this Agreement, the City Manager or his/her designee shall determine: (1) whether, in his/her reasonable judgment, the requested modification constitutes a minor modification as defined herein; (2) whether the requested modification is consistent with applicable law (other than that portion of this Agreement sought to be modified); and (3) whether, in his/her reasonable judgment, the requested modification tends to promote the goals of this Agreement. If the City Manager or his/her designee determines that the requested modification is minor modification that is consistent with applicable law and tends to promote the goals of this Agreement, the proposed modification will be approved by the City as a minor modification, and a written modification will be executed by the Parties and attached to this Agreement. Any such minor modification shall not be deemed an “amendment” to this Agreement under Government Code Section 65858.
(v) City Cooperation. The City shall cooperate with Operator in securing any City permits, licenses or other authorizations that may be required as a result of any amendment resulting from actions initiated by the City. As required by this Agreement, Operator shall be responsible to pay all applicable fees in connection with securing of such permits, licenses, or other authorizations.
q. Effective Date. “Effective Date” means the date on which all of the following are true: (i) thirty (30) days have elapsed since the second reading of the Ordinance adopting and approving this Development Agreement and (ii) all Exhibits to this Agreement are finalized, executed and notarized by all affected parties (if applicable) and attached hereto; provided, however, that if these conditions have not been fully satisfied by Operator the Effective Date may not thereafter occur and this Agreement may not thereafter become effective.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement on the day and year first above written.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
AGENDA MATTER:
ADOPTION OF ORDINANCE 996-2022 APPROVING DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WITH ZENGROW, INC.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Staff requests that the City Council adopt Ordinance No. 996-2022 approving Zengrow, Inc.'s application for a Commercial Cannabis Cultivation permit, Commercial Cannabis Distribution/Transportation permit, Commercial Cannabis Manufacturing permit, Cannabis Development Agreement, Conditional Use Permit, and related land use entitlements.
DISCUSSION:
On November 8, 2016, the Control, Regulate, & Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act (“AUMA”) was approved by California voters via Proposition 64. The AUMA permits local jurisdictions to regulate and/or ban adult use cannabis cultivation, distribution and delivery, transportation, manufacturing, testing laboratories, dispensaries, and microbusiness facilities.
In June 2021, the City Council passed Ordinance No. 974-2021 which added Chapter 19.27 to the Barstow Municipal Code to permit commercial cannabis activities in the City. The ordinance went into effect on July 7, 2021. On October 4, 2021, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 977-2021, amending the City’s cannabis regulatory program ordinance.
All cannabis businesses must enter into a development agreement with the City that will be subject to council approval through the adoption of an ordinance under Government Code Section 65865. This application came before the Planning Commission for review at its October 10, 2022 meeting as part of consideration of a multi-tenant development agreement for all cannabis businesses coming before the Council tonight as all land use permits and statutory development agreements must first be presented to the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission recommended approval. The City Council considered the development agreement at its November 21, 2022 meeting and directed staff to return with individualized development agreement for each cannabis business that is being proposed. At its December 19, 2022 meeting, the City Council introduced the ordinance approving the development agreement and related entitlements for this cannabis facility.

A. DA 8 was reviewed and deemed correct and in compliance with Government Code Section 65865.2 and Chapter 19.46 of the Barstow Municipal Code; and B.

D. The application to the City was made on forms approved, and contains all information required by the Director and is filed with the Department in compliance with Chapter 19.46; and

14.c
Packet Pg. 279 Attachment: Zengrow DA_redlined (5232 : Adoption of Ord. 996-2022 Zengrow Inc. Comm. Cannabis App) - 18 -
and from adequate for such purpose. City shall have the right to audit and examine such books, records and documents and other relevant items in the possession of such Operator, on no less than an annual basis, or at any time upon reasonable request by the City, to the extent necessary for a proper determination of Gross Receipts from Operations, and all such books, records, documents and other items shall be held available for such audit and examination. The City’s audit shall be performed by a non-contingency fee independent auditor approved in advance by the City.

Each Operator shall pay all costs of such audits. Each Operator shall preserve such books, records, documents, and other items in Barstow for a period of not less than one (1) years for the purpose of auditing or re-auditing these accounts upon reasonable notice; except that, if an audit is made within the sevenyear period and each Operator claims that errors or omissions have occurred, the books and records shall be retained and made available until those matters are resolved. City shall keep strictly confidential all statements of revenue furnished by each Operator and all other information concerning such Operator’s operation of the Premises obtained by City as a result of the inspection audit and examination privileges of City hereunder, except as otherwise required by law. If City receives a request for such information pursuant to the Public Records Act (California Government Code Section 6250, et seq.), City shall provide each Operator notice of any such request prior to disclosing any such information and afford such Operator the opportunity to obtain a protective order. Within seven (7) years after the receipt of any statement of receipts under this Agreement, City at any time shall be entitled to carry out an audit of such revenue either by City or agent to be designated by City. If it shall be determined as a result of such audit that there has been a deficiency in any payment due under this Agreement made on the basis of such statement, then such deficiency shall become immediately due and payable within thirty (30) days of such determination.
3) Copies of Tax Filings. Each Operator shall provide the City with courtesy copies of each and every CDTFA Quarterly report such Operator is required to provide to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration for sales and use tax, Cannabis Excise Tax, and/or Cannabis Cultivation Tax, at the time such filings are made.

b. Future Revenue Mechanisms. During the term of this Agreement, if the City imposes (by Citizen Initiative or otherwise) an alternative revenue mechanism specifically related to cannabis operations (e.g., a cannabis tax), Operator and City agree to renegotiate in good faith the terms of this Agreement so as to conform the aggregate Public Benefit Fees and Operating Fees payable by an Operator with any alternative revenue mechanism approved by voters. As used in this section, “alternative revenue mechanism” does not

include taxes, fees, or assessments levied on or collected from both cannabis and noncannabis operations.

Each Operator hereby indemnifies City for any damage resulting from failure of such Operator, its agents, employees, contractors, or subcontractors to take out or maintain such insurance.

12. Termination.
a. Termination Upon End of Term. This Agreement shall terminate upon the expiration of the Term unless it is terminated earlier pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement, City shall record a notice of such termination and this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement.
b. Effect of Termination on Operator’s Obligations. Termination of this Agreement shall eliminate any further obligation of Operator to comply with this Agreement, or some portion thereof, if such termination relates to only part of the Premises or Project.

15. Defaults and Remedies.
a. Remedies in General. It is acknowledged by the parties that City would not have entered into this Agreement if it were to be liable in damages under this Agreement, or with respect to this Agreement or the application thereof, except as hereinafter expressly provided. Subject to extensions of time by mutual consent in writing, failure to delay by either party to perform any term or provision of this Agreement beyond a reasonable notice and cure period shall constitute a default. In the event of alleged default or breach of any terms or conditions of this Agreement, the party alleging such default or breach shall give the other party not less than thirty (30) day notice in writing specifying the nature of the alleged default and the manner in which said default may be satisfactorily cured during any such thirty (30) day period, the party charged shall not be considered in default for purposes of termination or institution of legal proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if the alleged default is of such a nature that it cannot be cured within thirty (30) days, the alleged defaulting party shall not be deemed in default as long as such party commences to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.
After notice and expiration of the thirty (30) day period without a cure of such default, the other party to this Agreement, at its option, may terminate the Agreement or institute legal proceedings pursuant to this Agreement.
In general, each of the parties hereto may pursue any remedy at law or equity available for the breach of any provision of this Agreement, except that City shall not be liable in monetary damages, to Operator, to any mortgagee or lender, or to any successors in interest of Operator or mortgagee or lender, or to any other person, and Operator covenants on behalf of itself and all successors in interest to the Premises or any portion thereof, not to sue for damages or claim any damages.
1) For any breach of this Agreement or for any cause of action which arises out of this Agreement; or
2) For the impairment or restriction of any right or interest conveyed or provided under, with, or pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any impairment or restriction which Operator characterizes as a regulatory taking or inverse condemnation; or
3) Arising out of or connected with any dispute, controversy or issue regarding the application or interpretation or effect of the provisions of this Agreement.
b. Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge that money damages and remedies at law are inadequate, and specific performance and other non- monetary relief are particularly appropriate remedies for the enforcement of this Agreement and should be available to all parties for the following reasons:
14.c
Packet Pg. 284 Attachment: Zengrow DA_redlined (5232 : Adoption of Ord. 996-2022 Zengrow Inc. Comm. Cannabis App) - 23 -
1) Money damages are unavailable against City as provided in Section 15(a) above.
2) Due to the size, nature, and scope of the Project, it may not be practical or possible to restore the Premises to its natural condition once implementation of this Agreement has begun. After such implementation, Operator may be foreclosed from other choices it may have had to use the Premises or portions thereof. Operator has invested significant time and resources and performed extensive planning and processing of the Project in agreeing to the terms of this Agreement and will be investing even more significant time and resources in implementing the Project in reliance upon the terms of this Agreement, and it is not possible to determine the sum of money which would adequately compensate Operator for its efforts. By the same token, in the event that City issues any permit or other approval for a structure, and the public facilities, improvements, and infrastructure reasonably necessary to provide an adequate level of public services to that structure are not timely completed or Operator otherwise fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement, then it would not be possible to determine a sum of money that would adequately compensate City for the resulting hardship.
For the above reasons, City and Operator and agree that, notwithstanding any other language in this Agreement, damages would not be an adequate or appropriate remedy if City fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, specific performance of this Agreement is the only remedy which would compensate Operator if City fails to carry out its obligations under this Agreement, and City hereby agrees that Operator shall be entitled to specific performance in the event of a default by City hereunder. Further, specific performance of this Agreement is the only remedy which would compensate City if Operator fails to carry out their obligations under this Agreement, and Operator hereby agree that City shall be entitled to specific performance in such event. c. Release. Except for those remedies set forth in Sections 15(a), 15(b), and this 15(c), Operator, for itself, its successors and assignees, hereby releases City, its officers, agents and employees from any and all claims, demands, actions, or suits of any kind or nature arising out of any liability, known or unknown, present or future, based or asserted, pursuant to Article 1, Section 19 of the California Constitution, the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution, or any other law or ordinance which seeks to impose any other liability or damage, whatsoever, upon City because it entered into this Agreement or because of the terms of this Agreement.
Operator acknowledges that it may have suffered, or may suffer, damages and other injuries that are unknown to it, or unknowable to it, at the time of its execution of this Agreement. Such fact notwithstanding, Operator agrees that the release provided in this Section 14(c) shall apply to such unknown or unknowable claims and damages. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Operator acknowledges the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provide:
14.c
Packet Pg. 285 Attachment: Zengrow DA_redlined (5232 : Adoption of Ord. 996-2022 Zengrow Inc. Comm. Cannabis App) - 24 -
“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”
Operator hereby waives, to the maximum legal extent, the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542 and all other statutes and judicial decisions of similar effect. d. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. In any action or proceeding between City and Operator brought to interpret or enforce this Agreement, or which in any way arises out of the existence of this Agreement or is based upon any term or provision contained herein, the “prevailing party” in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party, in addition to all other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled pursuant to this Agreement, the prevailing party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and litigation costs, in an amount to be determined by the court. The prevailing party shall be determined by the court in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1032. Fees and costs recoverable pursuant to this Section 14(e) include those incurred during any appeal from an underlying judgment and in the enforcement of any judgment rendered in any such action or proceeding.
e. Default. No building permit shall be issued or building permit application accepted for Operator for any structure on the Premises after Operator is determined by City to be in default of the terms and conditions of this Agreement until such default thereafter is cured such defaulting party or is waived by City. If City terminates this Agreement as to any Operator because of such Operator’s default, then City shall retain any and all benefits, including money or land received by City hereunder.
16. Third Party Litigation.
a. General Plan Litigation. City has determined that this Agreement is consistent with its General Plan and all applicable special plans. Operator has reviewed the General Plan and concurs with City’s determination.
City shall have no liability under this Agreement or otherwise for any failure of City to perform under this Agreement, or for the inability of Operator to develop the Premises as contemplated by the Agreement, including, but not limited to, if such failure to perform or inability to develop is the result of a judicial determination that the General Plan, or portions thereof, are invalid or inadequate or not in compliance with law, or that this Agreement.
b. Hold Harmless Agreement. Operator hereby agrees to, and shall hold City, its elective and appointive boards, commissions, officers, agents, attorney's, contractors, consultants and employees harmless from any liability for damage or claims for damage for personal injury, including death, as well as from claims for property damage which may arise from Operator or their respective contractors, subcontractors, agents, or employees’ operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by Operator, or by any of
14.c
Packet Pg. 286 Attachment: Zengrow DA_redlined (5232 : Adoption of Ord. 996-2022 Zengrow Inc. Comm. Cannabis App) - 25 -
Operator’s contractors, subcontractors, agents, or employees operations under this Agreement. Operator agrees to and shall defend City and its elective and appointive boards, commissions, officers, agents and employees from any suits or actions at law or in equity for damage caused, or alleged to have been caused, by reason of any of the aforesaid operations.
c. Indemnification. Operator shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City and its elective and appointive boards, commissions, officers, agents, attorney's, contractors, consultants, and employees against and from any and all liabilities, demands, claims, actions or proceedings and costs and expenses incidental thereto (including costs of defense, settlement and reasonable attorneys’ fees), which any or all of them may suffer, incur, be responsible for or pay out as a result of or in connection with any challenge to the legality, validity or adequacy of any of the following: (i) this Agreement and the concurrent and subsequent permits, licenses and entitlements approved for the Project or Premises, and all activities conducted under such entitlements; (ii) the environmental impact report, mitigated negative declaration or negative declaration, as the case may be, prepared in connection with the development of the Premises; (iii) any claims based on or alleging inverse condemnation by any person or entity with an interest in the Premises; and (iv) the proceedings undertaken in connection with the adoption or approval of any of the above.
In the event of any legal or equitable action or other proceeding instituted by any third party (including a governmental entity or official) challenging the validity of any provision of this Agreement or any portion thereof as set forth herein, the parties shall mutually cooperate with each other in defense of said action or proceeding. Notwithstanding the above, City, at is sole option, may tender the complete defense of any third-party challenge as described herein. In the event City elects to contract with special counsel to provide for such a defense, City shall meet and confer with Operator regarding the selection of counsel, and Operator shall pay all costs related to retention of such counsel. d. Environmental Contamination. Operator shall indemnify and hold City, its elective and appointive boards, commissions, officers, agents, attorney's, contractors, consultants and employees free and harmless from any liability, based or asserted, upon any act or omission of Operator, its officers, agents, employees, subcontractors, predecessors in interest, successors, assigns and independent contractors, excepting and acts or omissions of City as successor to any portions of the Premises dedicated or transferred to City by Operator, for any violation of any federal, state or local law, ordinance or regulation relating to industrial hygiene or to environmental conditions on, under or about the Premises, including, but not limited to, soil and groundwater conditions, and Operator shall defend, at its expense, including attorneys’ fees, City, its officers, agents and employees in any action based or asserted upon any such alleged act or omission. City may in its discretion participate in the defense of any such claim, action or proceeding. e. City to Approve Counsel. With respect to Sections 16(a) through 16(d), City shall approve any counsel which Operator selects, hires, or otherwise engages to defend City hereunder, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
17. California Environmental Quality Act. Operator shall reimburse City for any
14.c
Packet Pg. 287 Attachment: Zengrow DA_redlined (5232 : Adoption of Ord. 996-2022 Zengrow Inc. Comm. Cannabis App) - 26 -
and all costs incurred by City related to project review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Public Resources Code, §§21000-21189.3, and the Guidelines for California Environmental Quality Act, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, §§15000-15387. If reasonably requested by City, Operator shall conduct and pay for any required CEQA reviews and analyses.
18. Rules, Regulations, and Official Policies. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the rules, regulations, and official policies of City governing permitted uses of the land, governing density, and governing the design, improvements, and construction standards and specifications applicable to the development of the Project subject of this Agreement, shall be those rules, regulations, and official policies of City in force at the time of the execution of this Agreement. This Agreement does not prevent City, in subsequent actions applicable to the property, from applying new rules, regulations, and policies which do not conflict with those rules, regulations, and policies applicable to the property as set forth herein, nor does this Agreement prevent City from denying or conditionally approving any subsequent development project application based on such existing or new rules, regulations, or policies.

Periodic Review. City Manager shall review this Agreement annually, on or before each anniversary of the Effective Date, in order to ascertain Operator’s good faith compliance with this Agreement.

Unless amended or canceled pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall be enforceable by any party hereto, or successor in interest thereto, notwithstanding any subsequent change in any applicable general or specific plan, zoning, subdivision or building regulation, or municipal code amendment adopted by City that conflicts with the terms of this Agreement. However, this Agreement is subject to the City's “Reserved Powers.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Reserved Powers” means the rights and authority excepted from this Agreement's restrictions on the City's police powers and which are instead reserved to the City. The Reserved Powers include the powers to enact regulations or take future discretionary actions after the Effective Date of this Agreement that: (1) are necessary to protect the public health and safety, and are generally applicable on a City-wide basis (except in the event of natural disasters as found by the City Council such as floods, earthquakes and similar acts of God); (2) are amendments to California Cannabis Laws or California Uniform Codes, as adopted by the City of Barstow,

and/or the Barstow Municipal Code, as applicable, regarding the construction, engineering and design standards for private and public improvements to be constructed on the Premises; (3) are necessary to comply with state or federal laws and regulations; or (4) involve sign and parking ordinances and guidelines, changes to the City’s zoning laws, Specific Plan or the City's General Plan, whether adopted previous or subsequent to the Effective Date of this Agreement).
If any City ordinance, rule or regulation or addition to the Barstow Municipal Code is enacted or imposed by a citizen-sponsored initiative or referendum after the Effective Date that would conflict with this Agreement or an associated Commercial Cannabis Permit, business license or other authorizations and City approvals, or reduce development rights or assurances provided to the Operator in this Agreement, then such changes, additions or deletions to the Barstow Municipal Code shall not be applied to the Premises or Project; provided, however, the parties acknowledge that the City's approval of this Agreement is a legislative action subject to referendum. The parties shall cooperate with each other and undertake such reasonable actions as may be appropriate to ensure this Agreement remains in full force and effect and is implemented in accordance with its terms and to the fullest extent permitted by state or federal law.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, site improvements contemplated by this Agreement shall be completed pursuant to the development standards and design guidelines applicable at the time of development. e. Joint and Several Liability. Operator shall be jointly and severally liable for any amount due under this Agreement, and any breach of this Agreement or failure to pay by one Party shall also constitute a breach of this Agreement by the other Party. f. Severability. If any part of this Agreement is found to conflict with applicable state laws or regulations, such part shall be inoperative, null, and void insofar as it conflicts with said laws or regulations or modified or suspended as may be necessary to comply with such state laws or regulations, but the remainder of this Agreement shall continue to be in full force and effect.
g. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The execution of this Agreement may be by actual, facsimile, or electronic signature.
h. Jurisdiction. The law governing this Agreement shall be that of the State of California. Any suit brought by any party against any other party arising out of the performance of this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, shall be filed and maintained in the County of San Bernardino Superior Court.
i. Disclaimer. Despite California Cannabis Laws and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, any CUP, or any CCP issued pertaining to Operator, or the Premises,

California commercial cannabis cultivators, transporters, distributors, or possessors may still be subject to arrest by state or federal officers and prosecuted under state or federal law. The Federal Controlled Substances Act, 21 USC § 801, et seq., prohibits the manufacture, distribution, and possession of cannabis without any exemptions for medical use.
j. Force Majeure. If delays are caused by unforeseen events beyond the control of Operator, such delays will entitle Operator to an extension of time as provided in this section. Such unforeseen events (“Force Majeure”) shall mean war, insurrection, acts of God, local, state or national emergencies, strikes and other labor difficulties beyond the party’s control, or any default by City hereunder, which Force Majeure event substantially interferes with the development, construction or operation of the Project. k. Constructive Notice and Acceptance. Every person who after the Effective Date and recording of this Agreement owns or acquires any right, title, or interest to any portion of the Premises, is and shall be conclusively deemed to have consented and agreed to every provision contained herein, whether or not any reference to this Agreement is contained in the instrument by which such person acquired an interest in the Premises, and all rights and interests of such person in the Premises shall be subject to the terms, requirements, and provisions of this Agreement.
l. Binding Effect of Agreement. The Parties agree that the Recitals above are true and correct and intend to be bound by same. Except as otherwise provided, the burdens of this Agreement are binding upon, and the benefits of this Agreement inure to, all authorized successors-in-interest of the Parties and constitute covenants which run with the Premises. In order to provide constructive notice thereof, the City Clerk will record this Agreement with the San Bernardino County Recorder within the period required by Government Code Section 65868.5.
m. Project as a Private Undertaking. It is specifically understood and agreed by and between the parties hereto that the development of the Project is a private development, that neither party is acting as the agent of the other in any respect hereunder, and that each party is an independent contracting entity with respect to the terms, covenants and conditions contained in this Agreement. No partnership, joint venture or other association of any kind is formed by this Agreement. The only relationship between the City and Operator is that of a government entity regulating the development of private property and developer of such property.
n. Changes to Project. The Parties acknowledge that changes to the Project or Development Plans and related approvals may be appropriate and mutually desirable to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement. This Agreement shall not prevent the City from applying, with the consent or at the request of Operator, Subsequent Land Use Regulations or Subsequent Development Approvals that do not directly conflict with the Project, Premises or Development Plan authorized under this Agreement. The granting of one such change, or request shall not obligate the City to grant other similar changes or requests. As used herein, “Subsequent Development Approvals” include, without
