BELLMORE and PEGGY J. BELLMORE, hereinafter referred to as the "Landowner" RECITALS: The following recitals are a material part of this Annexation Agreement (the "Agreement"). A. Landowner is the owner of property more fully described on Exhibit A attached hereto (the "Property"), also known as Bellmore Third Annexation. B. Landowner has determined that it is desirable for the future development of the Property to annex to the Town and has contemporaneously with this Agreement filed a Petition to annex the Property (the "Petition")to the Town; and the Petition is on file with the Town Clerk. C. The Landowner and the Town desire to establish conditions with regard to the use of the Property and to provide for zoning of the Property and certain requirements for the subsequent development of the Property. D. The parties agree that this annexation shall not create any additional costs or impose any additional burden on the existing residents of the Town, and all costs associated with providing facilities and services to the Property shall be borne by the Landowner. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 1. Pursuant to §31-12-108.5, C.R.S., an annexation impact report shall be prepared by the Town and copies will be distributed in accordance with the requirements of the aforesaid statute. 2. Pursuant to §31-12-115, C.R.S., the Property shall be zoned within ninety days of the effective date of the annexation ordinance as provided in the Agreement. 3 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Town agrees to allow development of the Property in phases. Prior to the development of any portion of the Property, a development agreement shall be in place which shall in part address the dedication and improvement of roads including signage and traffic control, the installation and maintenance of water and sanitary waste disposal and related facilities, and the installation and maintenance of storm drainage facilities in accordance with this Agreement. 4. Landowner shall install water improvements to serve the Property. The Town shall be obligated to provide sufficient water service to the Property and the Town shall be required to maintain improvements for water service once installed, upon purchase of water taps by Landowner. The Town agrees to accept shares of the Colorado Big Thompson Project water and/or North Poudre Irrigation Company for any raw water contribution requirement for provision of water taps to the Property as the Town shall decide at the time that raw water is required, based on what is acceptable to North Weld County Water District at such time. The Town shall take all necessary action to permit water and sanitary waste disposal service by the applicable utility to the Property. All water and sanitary waste disposal service shall be constructed in accordance with applicable Town ordinances,rules,regulations,and engineering specifications as may be in effect at the time of development, which shall be no more costly or restrictive than those applicable to the Town's water or sanitary waste disposal systems. Landowner will pay only the costs associated with obtaining water and sanitary waste disposal systems for the Property and dedicate all necessary rights-of-way on the property. The Town will obtain all other necessary easements for construction and maintenance of any sanitary waste disposal or water improvements on the same terms as any other property in the Town. 5. Landowner shall construct such storm drainage improvements as are required by any applicable Town ordinances, rules, regulations and engineering specifications in effect at the time the development occurs and shall further dedicate all necessary rights-of-way for storm sewers to serve property being developed. The Town shall be obligated to provide storm drainage improvements (if necessary) for that portion that is not on the Property. The Town will accept ownership and maintenance of any storm drainage improvements constructed by Landowner or as otherwise provided by Town ordinance at the time development occurs. 6. In order to facilitate construction of subdivision improvements,the Town will consider the creation of one or more districts, including but not limited to,special districts, general improvement districts, and metropolitan districts. The Town agrees to designate the Property as an enterprise zone under applicable state law. 7. As of the date of this Agreement a portion of the Property is being used for agricultural purposes. The Property may continue to be used for agricultural purposes including grazing livestock and maintenance of fences (including barbed wire fences) until a development plan or subdivision has been approved and a building permit has been issued for nonagricultural improvements pursuant to the development plan or in the subdivision for construction on that portion of the Property. 8 If the annexation of the Property, or any portion thereof, is challenged by a referendum, all provisions of this Agreement, together with the duties and obligations of each party, including payment of all taxes, fees and charges of any kind or nature, directly or indirectly imposed by the Town and enforcement of all Town ordinances on the Property shall be suspended, immediately upon filing of the referendum, pending the outcome of the referendum election. If the referendum challenge results in disconnection of all or any portion of the Property from the Town, then this Agreement and all provisions contained herein shall be null and void ab initio and have no further effect except as the application fees charged by the Town for processing the Petition. If the referendum challenge fails, then Landowner and the Town shall continue to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Annexation Agreement. The period of suspension of this Agreement shall end on the date the annexation ordinance is no longer subject to further legal challenge. Upon such disconnection, the Town shall have no further obligations or responsibilities as to such disconnected property, and the Landowner shall have no further obligation to the Town. 9 The Landowner has petitioned for annexation upon the expectation that the Town will zone the Property as follows: Parcel 1 as a combination of"R-1" Single Family Residential,"R-2"Multiple Family Residential and"C"Commercial as shown on the attached map (also in the Annexation Petition for the Property). Petitioner has also petitioned the Town for rezoning of the property known as the Bellmore First Annexation from "A" Agriculture to a combination of "R-1" Single Family Residential, R-2 Multiple Family Residential and "C" Commercial as shown on the attached map. If such zoning is not finally approved by appropriate ordinance within ninety days after the date the annexation ordinance becomes final and is no longer subject to further legal challenge, the Town will upon the request of the Landowner proceed to enact an ordinance disconnecting the Property from the Town. Upon such disconnection, the Town shall have no further obligations or responsibilities as to such disconnected property; and the Landowner shall have no furthenobligations or responsibilities to the Town. 10. The parties recognize that it is the intent of the Landowner to develop the Property and the Bellmore First Annexation under the zoning described in this Agreement and in the annexation petition. The subsequent granting of such zoning by the Town to the Property is a condition of the annexation of the Property. The initial grant of the requested zoning shall not be changed by the Town, without Landowner's consent, for twenty-five years. In the event any ordinance becomes effective in the Town within twenty-five years after the effective date of the annexation ordinance, and such ordinance alters or limits Landowner's right to use the Property as contemplated by this Agreement, then the Town, upon the written request of Landowner, will proceed to take all necessary action to immediately disconnect the Property from the Town's boundaries. However it is acknowledged that such zoning is not guaranteed except as provided in this Agreement, and the Town has not agreed to maintain such zoning in perpetuity beyond the terms of this Agreement. 11. Except as set forth in this Agreement, the Property shall be subject to the police power and legislative authority of the Town, after final annexation of the Property. 12. This Agreement shall be specifically enforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction. In the event of a breach of any provision of this Agreement, the nonbreaching party may ask a court of competent jurisdiction to enter a writ of mandamus, temporary or permanent restraining orders, temporary or permanent injunctions, or orders of specific performance to compel the breaching party to perform its duties under this Agreement and to grant such other relief as may be accorded by law, it being the intent of this provision to supplement the general or common law of remedies. The parties agree to sign any further documents reasonably required by Landowner or the Town to carry out the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement and any amendments to this Agreement shall be recorded with the Weld County Clerk and Recorder and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, transferees, successors, and assigns of the Landowner and the Property. Upon conveyance of all or any portion of the Property by an Landowner, the successor in interest shall be substituted for the Landowner under this Agreement; and the former Landowner shall be released from all duties and liability under this Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute a covenant running with the title to the Property. This Agreement represents the entire agreement between the parties. Any amendments to this Agreement to be effective shall be in writing. 13. This Agreement shall be null and void if the Town fails to approve the annexation of the Property on or before , 1998. If Landowner properly disconnects all or any portion of the Property as provided for herein, this Agreement shall be null and void as to such Landowner, and such Property. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Annexation Agreement the day and year first written above. TOWN OF NUNN, COLORADO By: Mayor A11EST: Town Clerk LEROY A. BELLMORE PEGGY J.
