written acceptance from the County Engineer.
3.3 County's Response to Request for Release of Collateral. Following a written request for
release of collateral, County personnel will inspect the improvements as provided in this
Agreement. Upon approval, the Board of County Commissioners may release said collateral.
C. Acceptance of Improvements:

Construction Plans, Property Owner shall submit to the Weld County Department of Public Works
a Statement of Substantial Compliance by Property Owner's Engineer along with "as -built"

have been faithfully kept by Property Owner.
D. Access and Right -of -Way Permits:
1.0 Access Permits. Property Owner shall not use any access onto any County road unless and until an
access permit has been issued by the Department of Public Works. Public Works may condition the issuance
of an updated access permit on the amendment of this Agreement if the updated access permit authorizes
the use of an additional access point, or if there is a change in use of the current access point, as permitted
by Article V of Chapter 12 of the Weld County Code.
2.0 Right -of -Way (ROW) Permits. Per Article IV of Chapter 12 of the Weld County Code, any work
occurring within County ROW requires a ROW permit issued by the Department of Public Works. No work
shall occur without said ROW permit.
E. Enforcement and Remedies:
1.0 Violation of Terms of Agreement. If in County's opinion, Property Owner has violated any of the
terms of this Agreement, County shall notify Property Owner of its belief that the Agreement has been
violated and shall state with specificity the facts and circumstances which County believes constitute the
violation. Property Owner shall have fifteen (15) days within which to either cure the violation or
demonstrate compliance. If, after fifteen (15) days have elapsed, County believes in good faith that the
violation is continuing, County may consider Property Owner to be in breach of this Agreement.
2.0 Remedies for Breach by Property Owner. In the event that County determines that Property Owner
has violated the terms of this Agreement, and has failed to correct said violation, County may exercise any
or all of the following remedies, or any other remedy available in law or equity.
2.1 Access and Use of Collateral. County may access and use collateral to address the issues
specific to the violation. For example, the County may access and use Project Collateral in order to
complete improvements as required by the Construction Plans, when such improvements have not
been completed in accordance with the Construction Schedule.
2.2. Withholding Permits. County may "lock" any or all lots within the Property, which
precludes the continued issuance of building permits, zoning permits, septic permits, or any other
permit issued by any department of the County.

2.3 Court Action. County may seek relief in law or equity by filing an action in the Weld
District Court or Federal District Court for the District of Colorado, except that no such civil action
or order shall be necessary to access collateral for the purpose of completing improvements as
described above.
2.4 Revocation of USR Permit. Property Owner acknowledges that failure to comply with the
terms of this Agreement constitutes cause to revoke the USR, and County may exercise this option
in its sole discretion by proceeding with revocation under the then current provisions of the Weld
County Code.
3.0 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest of the following
events:
3.1 Failure to Commence. County may terminate this Agreement upon or after revocation of
the underlying land use approval under Weld County Code Section 23-2-290. However, County
may still exercise all necessary activities under this Agreement that the County determines
necessary to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of Weld County.
3.2 Cessation of all Permit Related Activities. Termination of this Agreement shall occur upon
Property Owner's complete cessation of all activities permitted by the USR including any clean up
or restoration required. A partial cessation of activities shall not constitute a Termination of this
Agreement, nor shall County's issuance of a partial release/vacation constitute a Termination.
Unless informed in writing by the Property Owner of cessation of activities, and verified by the
County, cessation shall only be presumed if the County determines that the USR has been inactive
for three (3) years. Property Owner shall not be entitled to a release of Project or Warranty
Collateral unless and until the improvements required by this Agreement are completed.
3.3 Execution of Replacement Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate following County's
execution of a new Improvements Agreement with a new property owner or operator who has
purchased the Property or has assumed the operation of the business permitted by the USR, and
intends to make use of the rights and privileges available to it through the then existing USR.

3.4 Revocation of USR. This Agreement shall terminate following County's revocation of
Property Owner's USR, except that the Property Owner shall only be released from this Agreement
after the successful completion of all improvements required under this Agreement, which may be
completed by County after accessing Property Owner's collateral if Property Owner fails to
complete such improvements.
Successors and Assigns.

without the prior express written consent of County and the written agreement of the party to whom

not be unreasonably withheld by County. In such case, Property Owner's release of its obligations

successor owner of the property.

and void. In the event of a legal dispute between the parties, the parties agree that the Weld County District
Court or Federal District Court for the District of Colorado shall have exclusive jurisdiction to resolve said
dispute.
8.0 Attorneys' Fees/Legal Costs. In the event of a dispute between County and Property Owner,
concerning this Agreement, the parties agree that each party shall be responsible for the payment of attorney
fees and/or legal costs incurred by or on its own behalf.

all liability loss and damage County may suffer as a result of all suits, actions, or claims of every nature
and description caused by, arising from, or on account of the design and construction of improvements, and
pay any and all judgments rendered against the County on account of any such suit, action or claim, and
notwithstanding section 7.0 above, together with all reasonable expenses and attorney fees incurred by
County in defending such suit, action or claim whether the liability, loss or damage is caused by, or arises
