Map No. 36557 – Condition of Approval No. 121a) (the “Agreement”), dated as of
_________________ ___, 201__, is made by and between the CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, a
municipal corporation (“City”), and TERRACINA INVESTORS, LLC, a California limited
liability company (“Subdivider”).
RECITALS
A. Subdivider is the owner of approximately 150.8 acres of real property in the City
of Lake Elsinore (the “Property”). The Property is the subject of the Terracina Specific Plan.
B. On July 14, 2015, the City Council of the City of Lake Elsinore (“City Council”)
approved, in addition to other development entitlements, Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 36557
(“VTTM 36557”). VTTM 36557 along with the other related entitlements allow for the
subdivision of the Property and construction of 452 single-family residences along with related
amenities and public improvements (the “Project”).

incorporated into this Agreement by reference.
D. Condition of Approval, No. 121a (“COA 121a”) relates to a condition that the
Subdivider construct a masonry or decorative block wall in an adjacent off-site area to be
completed before issuance of the Project’s 200th building permit (the “Improvements”). COA
121a contains no obligation to remove, remediate or otherwise improve existing off-site wood
fences.
E. The proposed timing for the installation of the Improvements will necessarily
occur after an approval of one or more final maps for the Project such that Subdivider is required
pursuant to Government Code section 66462 to enter into a suitable agreement and provide
security for such off-site public improvement as a condition precedent to such approval.
F. In addition to satisfying the requirements of Government Code section 66462,
installation of the Improvements involves a public right of way directly adjacent to backyards of
14 single family residences. As a consequence, the parties desire to coordinate efforts in order to
efficiently install the Improvements and minimize disturbances and inconvenience to these
adjacent private property owners.

for any damages to the Adjacent Property by reason of the installation and construction of the
Improvements in accordance with the Improvement Plans. City agrees to protect and hold
harmless Subdivider from any property related claims, demands, causes of action, liability or
loss, including, but not limited to, attorney fees and litigation expenses, brought by the Adjacent
Property Owners as a result of the installation and construction of the Improvements in
accordance with the Improvement Plans. This indemnification and agreement to hold harmless
shall be limited to damages or taking of property resulting from construction of the Improvements
in accordance with the Improvement Plans.

d. Subdivider’s Election to Pay In-Lieu Fee. At any time prior to the
commencement of construction of the Improvements, Subdivider shall be entitled to pay a fee of
$180,000 in lieu of installing the Improvements (the “In-Lieu Fee”). Upon the City’s receipt of
the In-Lieu Fee, Subdivider’s obligation pursuant to COA 121a shall be deemed satisfied.
Payment and receipt of the In-Lieu Fee shall be governed by the refunding provisions of subpart
(e) of this Section 5.
e. City Engineer’s Election to Have City Receive Alternative In-Lieu Fee. In
the event that the City Engineer, in consultation with the City Manager and the City Attorney,
reasonably determines that the opposition to the Improvements posed by some or all of the
Adjacent Property Owners necessitates delaying the commencement of construction such that
Subdivider will not reasonably be able to complete the Improvements within the time provided
under COA 121a, the City Engineer may demand payment of an in-lieu fee, provided, however,
that such in-lieu fee shall not exceed Subdivider’s reasonable anticipated actual cost for
construction of the Improvements. Payment of the In-Lieu fee by Subdivider shall fully satisfy
COA 121a. Subdivider may submit a bid from a qualified licensed contractor in good standing in
order to verify Subdivider’s anticipated actual cost for the Improvements. Any In-Lieu Fee paid
by Subdivider shall be refunded if construction of the Improvements is not commenced by the
City within 36 months of payment of the In-Lieu Fee. If the Improvements are not completed
within 6 months of commencement of construction, the unspent, unencumbered portion of any
remaining In-Lieu Fee shall be refunded to Subdivider.
6. Completion of Improvements; Inspection.
a. Construction of Improvements. Subdivider shall complete construction of
the Improvements prior to the issuance of the 200th building permit for the Project. Failure by
Subdivider to complete construction of the Improvements within the specified time periods shall
constitute cause for City, in its sole discretion and when it deems necessary, to declare Subdivider
in default of this Agreement, to refuse to issue building permits and other approvals for the
Project, to revise improvement security requirements as necessary to ensure completion of the
Improvements, and/or to require modifications in the standards or sequencing of the
Improvements in response to changes in standards or conditions affecting or affected by the
Improvements. Said failure shall not otherwise affect the validity of this Agreement or
Subdivider’s obligations hereunder.
b. Inspection. Subdivider shall at all times maintain proper facilities and safe
access for inspection of the Improvements by City. Upon completion of the work, the Subdivider
may request a final inspection by the City Engineer or the City Engineer’s authorized
representative. If the City Engineer or the designated representative determines that the work has
been completed in accordance with this Agreement, then the City Engineer shall certify the
completion of the Improvements. No improvements shall be finally accepted unless all aspects of
the work have been inspected and determined to have been completed in accordance with the
Improvement Plans and City standards and accepted by the City as described in Paragraph 10 of
this Agreement.

7. Force Majeure. In the event that Subdivider is unable to perform within the time
limits herein due to strikes, act of God, or other events beyond Subdivider’s control, the time
limits for obligations affected by such events will be extended by the period of such events.
8. Time Extension. Subdivider may make application in writing to the City Council
for an extension of time for completion of the Improvements. The City Council, in its sole and
absolute discretion, may approve or deny the request or conditionally approve the extension with
additions or revisions to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
9. [INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK].
10. Final Acceptance of Improvements. At the completion of construction and prior to
acceptance of the Improvements by City, Subdivider shall submit a request for final approval by
City. The request shall be accompanied by any required certifications from Subdivider’s
engineers or surveyors, and any required construction quality documentation not previously
submitted.
Upon receipt of said request, the City Engineer or a duly-authorized representative
will review the required documentation and will inspect the Improvements. If the Improvements
are determined to be in accordance with applicable City standards and specifications, and as
provided herein, obligations required by Condition 121a and this Agreement have been satisfied,
and Subdivider has provided revised plans as required in Paragraph 12, hereinafter, the City
Engineer shall recommend acceptance of the Improvements by the City Council.
11. Injury to Improvements. Until such time as the Improvements are accepted by City
in accordance with Paragraph 10, Subdivider shall be responsible for and bear the risk of loss to
any of the improvements constructed or installed. Until such time as all Improvements required
by this Agreement are fully completed and accepted by City, Subdivider will be responsible for
the care, maintenance of, and any damage to such improvements. City shall not, nor shall any
officer or employee thereof, be liable or responsible for any accident, loss or damage, regardless
of cause, happening or occurring to the work or improvements specified in this Agreement prior
to the completion and acceptance of the work or improvements. All such risks shall be the
responsibility of and are hereby assumed by Subdivider.
12. Revisions to Plans. When the Improvements have been inspected and approved by
the City Engineer, Subdivider shall make any necessary revisions to the original plans held by
City so the plans depict the actual Improvements constructed. When necessary revisions have
been made, each separate sheet of the plans shall be clearly marked with the words “As-Built,”
“As-Constructed,” or “Record Drawing,” the marking shall be stamped by an engineer or
surveyor, as appropriate for the improvements thereon, who is licensed to practice in California,
and the plans shall be resubmitted to the City Engineer.
13. Improvement Warranty. Subdivider hereby guarantees the Improvements to City
for a period of one (1) year, beginning on the date of final acceptance of the Improvements by the
City Council, against any defective work or labor done, or defective materials furnished, and
shall repair or replace such defective work or materials. If within the warranty period any work or
improvement or part of any work or improvement done, furnished, installed, constructed or
Page 6
caused to be done, furnished, installed or constructed by Subdivider fails to fulfill any of the
requirements of this Agreement or the improvement plans and specifications referred to herein,
Subdivider shall without delay and without any cost to City, repair or replace or reconstruct any
defective or otherwise unsatisfactory part or parts of the work or structure. Should Subdivider fail
to act promptly or in accordance with this requirement, Subdivider hereby authorizes City, at
City’s sole option, to perform the work twenty (20) days after mailing written notice of default to
Subdivider and to Subdivider’s Surety, and agrees to pay the cost of such work by City. Should
City determine that an urgency requires repairs or replacements to be made before Subdivider can
be notified, City may, in its sole discretion, make the necessary repairs or replacement or perform
the necessary work and Subdivider shall pay to City the cost of such repairs.
14. Release of Security. City shall retain and release securities in accordance with the
provisions of Paragraph 3 of this Agreement. Prior to the release of payment security, the City
Engineer may require Subdivider to provide a title report or other evidence sufficient to show
claims of lien, if any, that may affect the amount of payment security released.
15. City Right to Cure. If Subdivider fails to perform any obligation hereunder and
such obligation has not been performed, or commenced and diligently pursued, within sixty (60)
days after written notice of default from City, then City may perform the obligation, and
Subdivider shall pay the entire cost of such performance by City including costs of suit and
reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by City in enforcing such obligation. In cases of emergency or
compelling public interest, as determined by the City Engineer, the requirement for written notice
of default and/or the passage of sixty (60) days shall be deemed waived and all other provisions
of this Article shall remain in effect.
16. Injury to Public Improvements, Public Property or Public Utility Facilities.
Subdivider shall replace or have replaced, or repair or have repaired, as the case may be, all
public improvements, public utilities facilities and surveying or subdivision monuments which
are destroyed or damaged as a result of any work performed under this Agreement. Subdivider
shall bear the entire cost of replacement or repairs of any and all public or public utility property
damaged or destroyed by reason of any work done under this Agreement, whether such property
is owned by the United States or any agency thereof, or the State of California, or any agency or
political subdivision thereof, or by City or any public or private utility corporation or by any
combination of such owners. Any repair or replacement shall be to the satisfaction, and subject to
the approval, of the City Engineer.
17. Indemnification. Except as provided in Paragraphs 5 and 21, neither City nor any
and all of its officials, employees and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) shall be liable for any injury
to persons or property occasioned by reason of the acts or omissions of Subdivider, its agents or
employees in the performance of this Agreement. Except as provided in Paragraph 5, Subdivider
further agrees to protect and hold harmless Indemnified Parties from any and all claims, demands,
causes of action, liability or loss of any sort, including, but not limited to, attorney fees and
litigation expenses, because of, or arising out of, acts or omissions of Subdivider, its agents or
employees in the performance of this Agreement, including all claims, demands, causes of action,
liability, or loss because of, or arising out of, in whole or in part, the design or construction of the
Improvements.

18. No Modification of Conditions. This Agreement shall in no respect act to modify
or amend any provision of the Conditions of Approval. In the event that any requirement or
condition of this Agreement is inconsistent with or fails to include one or more provisions of the
Conditions of Approval, which document(s) is (are) incorporated herein by reference, the
provisions in the Conditions of Approval shall remain in effect and shall control.
19. Severability. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any
provision or provisions of this Agreement are unenforceable, all provisions not so held shall
remain in full force and effect.
20. Subdivider No Agent of City. Neither Subdivider nor any of Subdivider’s agents,
employees, or contractors are or shall be considered to be agents of City in connection with the
performance of Subdivider’s obligations under this Agreement.
21. Prevailing Wage Law Indemnification. Subdivider has been advised that the
Improvements may constitutes a public works project necessitating the payment of Prevailing
Wage and as such, the City may determine, in its discretion, the necessity of submitting a form
PWC-100 to the Department of Industrial Relations with respect to the Improvements.
Accordingly, in connection with the work provided by Subdivider pursuant to this Agreement,
Subdivider shall bear all risks of payment or non-payment of prevailing wages under California
Labor Code section 1720, et seq., and 1770, et seq., as well as California Code of Regulations,
Title 8, section 16000, et seq., (“Prevailing Wage Laws”), and Subdivider hereby agrees to
defend, indemnify, and hold the City, and its officials, employees, and agents from any claim or
liability arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws.
The foregoing indemnity shall survive termination of this Agreement.
