SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT
AGREEMENT FOR 8841 Old Redwood Highway
THIS SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), by and between the City of Cotati, a municipal corporation of the State of California, (hereinafter designated as CITY), and Pink Viking ORD, LLC (hereinafter designated as SUBDIVIDER).

WHEREAS, CITY, by City Council Resolution No. 2024-4 , dated January 23, 2024, has approved SUBDIVIDER's vesting tentative map of the above named Major Subdivision, subject to certain conditions; and WHEREAS, Subdivider, pursuant to the State of California Subdivision Map Act and all applicable ordinances of City, has presented to City improvement plans outlining thereon the improvements to be constructed by Subdivider within the abovementioned Subdivision; and WHEREAS, for the purpose of complying with the CITY’s Subdivision Ordinance, as amended, the Subdivision Map Act, and for the purpose of causing the final map of the above named subdivision to be approved and the major subdivision to be finalized, this Agreement is entered into pursuant to the requirements of said Ordinance and the Subdivision Map Act.

NOW THEREFORE, CITY and SUBDIVIDER agree as follows:

PART I: BASIS FOR WORK
SUBDIVIDER's Public Works Improvements are more fully set forth in the Public Works Subdivision Improvement Plans approved by and on file with the City Engineer’s office. The department identified in Exhibit A for each such part shall be the "responsible department" for ratification, plan approval, revisions and inspections, etc. All questions as to the responsible department shall be referred to the City Engineer for determination.

PART II: RESPONSIBILITIES
SUBDIVIDER has the responsibility of providing for the design and construction of certain specified Public Works Improvements for the subject subdivision and has submitted certain plans entitled “Flahavan Estates Subdivision Improvement Plans” and dated ______________2025 (“Public Works Improvement Plans”) for the construction of Public Works Improvements, which plans shall be approved by and be on file in the City Engineer’s office and are incorporated herein and made a part hereof, (hereinafter termed "Public Works Improvements"). These plans have been reviewed and approved as meeting CITY approved standards. However, CITY has not made an independent investigation of the job site, soils conditions, and all other conditions that might affect the design and construction of the Public Works Improvements. It is the responsibility of SUBDIVIDER to design and construct the Public Works Improvements in such a manner as to ensure compliance with this agreement, applicable federal, state and local laws and standards, and accomplishment of the Public Works Improvement’s purposes. In the event that job conditions require changes in the - 2 - COTATI SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT
2237250.1
5/15/2014
VERSION 1
approved Public Works Improvement plans, a request for such deviation must be submitted in writing by SUBDIVIDER's engineer for approval by the responsible department; no deviation will be allowed without such approval.

PART III: TIME
SUBDIVIDER shall, in accordance with the Public Works Improvement plans, complete or cause to be completed the Public Works Improvements to the satisfaction of City Engineer within two years of the Effective Date of this Agreement.

The dates for commencement and completion of the work of construction may be extended as herein provided. The City Engineer shall extend said dates for delays in said work actually caused by riots, strikes, lockouts, fires, earthquakes, flood and conditions resulting therefrom. Extension of said dates for any other cause shall be made only by the City Council.

The City Engineer and City Council shall be the sole and final judge as to whether good cause has been shown to entitle SUBDIVIDER to an extension. Any extension granted pursuant to this paragraph shall not obligate City in any manner to grant other requests for extension.

Any request for extension of any commencement and completion date shall be in writing, shall fully state the facts and grounds relied upon for said extension, and shall be delivered to CITY in the manner hereinafter specified for services of notices. Extensions shall be granted in writing and any purported oral extension or purported oral agreement to make an extension shall not be valid for any purpose whatsoever.

In the event it is deemed necessary by the CITY to extend the time of commencement or completion of the work to be done under this Agreement beyond the dates specified herein, such extension shall in no way release any guarantee given by SUBDIVIDER pursuant to this Agreement, or relieve or release those providing Public Works Improvement security pursuant to this Agreement. The sureties in executing the bonds and/or other providers of security shall be deemed to stipulate and agree that no change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the term of the Agreement or to the work to be performed thereunder or the specifications accompanying the same including, but not limited to, the Public Works Improvement plan shall in any way affect its obligations on the bond or other instrument, and to waive notice of any such change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Agreement or to the work or to the specifications.

The granting of any extension may be conditioned upon SUBDIVIDER providing CITY with increased Inspection Fees and new or amended surety bonds or other security in amounts increased to reflect increases in the cost of constructing the required Public Works Improvements that have occurred prior to the granting of the extension, and the cost of additional inspection services.

PART IV: NOTICE, INSPECTION AND STANDARDS
SUBDIVIDER shall notify the responsible department at least one working day in advance of:

1. The date work is commenced;

2. Work stoppage of more than one day;

3. The accomplishment of work on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday;

4. Completion of the Public Works Improvements.

SUBDIVIDER shall allow CITY's duly authorized representative access to the Public Works Improvement at all times and shall furnish them with every reasonable facility for ascertaining that the methods, materials, and workmanship comply with the requirements and intent of the Public Works Improvement plans. CITY may reject defective work and require its repair, replacement, or removal by SUBDIVIDER all at no expense to CITY. All work shall meet the standards set forth in the City of Cotati Subdivision Ordinance and the standards of the City Engineer’s office and all other applicable federal, state and local laws and standards, department contrary approval notwithstanding, and otherwise shall conform to the Public Works Improvement plans.

PART V: CONSTRUCTION COST
The estimated cost of constructing the Public Works Improvements as adjusted for inflation is agreed to be $2,618,033 (“construction costs”). The construction cost estimate for these Public Works Improvements are presented in Exhibit B.

Where the use of a set aside letter is acceptable to - 3 - COTATI SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT

and approved by the City Engineer as security, such security must include an additional twenty percent (20%) of the estimated construction cost.

SUBDIVIDER agrees that within two (2) years of the Effective Date of this Agreement, all monuments not previously set will be set within the Subdivision as shown on said map.
