RECITALS
This Agreement is being entered with reference to the following facts:

A. In accordance with the recommendations of the Planning Commission (“Commission”), the City Council for City (“City Council”) approving an application for Conditional Use Permit #19-07 and Architectural & Site Plan Review #19-07 to develop a Commercial Gasoline and Retailer/Tire Shop facility (the “Project”) within the South Rogers Road Master Development Plan area.

B. The Project is located on parcels located at 55 S. Rogers Road & 93 S. Rogers Road, Patterson, California, Stanislaus County Assessor’s Parcel Number 021-093-003 (the “Subject Property”), as shown in more detail in Exhibits A and Exhibit B.

C. As a condition of approval of the Project, Developer has installed, constructed, and agreed to perpetually maintain and repair all stormwater treatment control devices and adequate landscaping on the Subject Property (the “Private Improvements”), as shown in more detail in the approved improvement plans, referenced as Exhibit C-1, with the exception of the landscaped slope area described in Exhibit E.

The SCM (as hereafter defined) have been installed in accordance with plans and specification accepted by the City of Patterson; SCM has been installed on private property and draining into a private owned storm drainage basin which is located on a separate parcel, not owned by Developer. Therefore, the SCM installed on-site will be used to treat all stormwater onsite before it enters the private storm basin. The SCMs installed are “private” facilities with all maintenance or replacement to be the sole responsibility of the owner of such property in accordance to all the terms of this Agreement, and Developer shall be responsible only for those SCMs installed on property owned by Developer. The storm drainage basin installed at this development will be private and the basin will be owned and maintained by the owner(s) of the property on which the drainage basin is installed. Therefore, maintenance of the basin remains private under the responsibility of the owner of the property on which the drainage basin is installed. Additionally, the Developer agrees to enroll in the City’s Fats, Oils, and Grease (F.O.G.) Program, which will require maintenance reports to be submitted to the City on a regular basis and/or upon request of the City.

D. The City’s approval of the Project was conditioned upon Developer satisfying certain conditions, which included the obligation to construct and dedicate to City certain offsite improvements near the Subject Property (the “Civil Public Improvements”), as shown in more detail in the approved improvement plans, referenced as Exhibit C-2.

E. As a condition of approval, Developer shall maintain the landscaping for the Onsite Improvements at the location shown in Exhibit C-1 that are within the boundaries of the Subject Property (“Civil Public Improvements”), except for the sloped area as Described in Exhibit E, which shall not be the responsibility of Developer.

F. City and Developer desire to enter into this Agreement to clearly define the responsibilities for both Parties with respect to the Civil Improvements and Stormwater Treatment Control Measures (“SCMs”), including on-site storm drain inlets, full capture trash screens, etc. installed as part of the Project on the Subject Property (collectively, the “Project Maintenance”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto agree as follows:
