appropriate agreement to provide for full payment by the undersigned developer of said

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY AGREED to by and between the City of
Oshkosh, a municipal corporation located in Winnebago County, Wisconsin ( "CITY ") and

covenants made herein, as follows:

Sanitary Sewer and Laterals, Water Main and Laterals, Storm Sewer, Sidewalk,
Grading and Graveling, and Concrete Paving
All services and installations shall be according to plans and specifications, and
subject to the approval and acceptance, of the City Engineer.
4. No building permits will be issued for any lot to which utilities have not been
extended to and /or for any lot to which access has not been provided by graded,
graveled and properly maintained temporary roads. No building permits will be
issued for any lots until an "as- built" grading and drainage plan has been approved
by the Department of Public Works. At a minimum, the as -built plan shall show all
drainage features, and lot line grades. The as -built plan shall be certified by a
Professional Engineer (PE) or a Registered Land Surveyor (RLS) licensed in the
State of Wisconsin to be in compliance with the grading and drainage plan approved
by the Department of Public Works. All storm water management facilities shall be
compared to the original design. Any deviation from the design shall be noted, and
the Department of Public Works may require the Developer to confirm that the as-
built facilities comply with the storm water management ordinance.
Incorporated by reference within this Agreement is the approved grading and
drainage plan as required by Chapter 30 of the Oshkosh Municipal Code. These plans
shall be adhered to and maintained by the respective lot owners in a manner which is
consistent with the original design, function and capacity of the plan. If the respective lot
owners fail, in the sole judgment of the City, to properly maintain the grading and drainage
plan, the City shall give notice of such fact to the respective owner(s) who shall have the
time specified in the notice to correct the deficiencies. If the owner(s) does not
satisfactorily complete the work within the time allotted, the City may enter the property,
using its own employees and equipment or contracting with others to complete the work.
Developer hereby grants in perpetuity to the City reasonable and appropriate access
easements over this subdivision for such purposes. Cost incurred by the City will be levied
against the respective lot(s) as a special charge pursuant to Section 66.0627 of the
Wisconsin Statutes. This provision constitutes Developer's, and any respective lot
owner's, waiver of the notice of hearing and hearing otherwise required by Section 66.0703
of the Wisconsin Statutes. This covenant is intended to run with the land and to survive
any subsequent divestiture of title by Developer, or any respective lot owner(s) to any
successor in title but is not intended to benefit third parties who are not a party to this
agreement.
5. It is specifically understood by and between the parties that the amounts set
forth in the attached Exhibit "A" Waiver of Special Assessment Notices and Hearing under
Section 66.0703, Wisconsin Statutes are estimates only. Invoices and assessments shall
be based upon the actual costs of services and construction. In the event that the
estimated cost exceeds the actual costs of services and construction, the Developer shall
be responsible only for the actual cost of construction. In the event that the actual costs of
services and construction exceed the estimated costs, the City shall be entitled to assess
the property for any excess costs pursuant to statutory notice and hearing or upon
execution of an appropriate waiver.
A. PAYMENTS UPON INVOICE
The following shall be paid to the City by Developer in cash within 30 days upon

under this agreement, and shall indemnify and refund to the City all sums which the City
may become obligated to pay, including attorney fees, arising from the parties'
performances of this agreement within 30 days of written demand for payment.
8. Any refund which may be due Developer as a result of any special
assessment being in excess of the actual amount paid by City for said improvements is not
assignable by Developer.
9. All privately constructed improvements shall be completed within three years
from the date of this agreement or the Developer shall be considered in def"auit of this
agreement and subject to the provisions of paragraph 12 relating thereto.
10. The Developer shall provide a letter of credit, which meets the approval of
the City Attorney, in an amount equal to the estimated cost of any publicly constructed
improvements or services set forth in Exhibit "A" attached hereto which may be drawn upon
by the City in payment of construction and /or related costs for the public improvements.
Such letter of credit shall be filed in the office of the City Clerk prior to approval of the Final
Plat by the Common Council.
Prior to approval by the Common Council, the Developer shall file a three year
performance bond or letter of credit, which shall be renewable at the option of the City of
Oshkosh if such construction has not been completed within the three year period specified
above and which meets the approval of the City Attorney, which shall guaranty Developer's
performance of any privately constructed improvements as set forth in Exhibit "A" attached
hereto. After written acceptance by the City of any privately constructed improvements,
Developer may submit a letter of credit in the amount specified in the attached Exhibit "A"
as a guarantee of such improvements for a period of two years from the date of
acceptance. The Developer shall be responsible for repairs to said privately constructed
improvements during this two year guaranty period.
Failure to file an appropriate bond shall entitle the City to stop all construction work
upon the project including construction performed by private contractors, by notice to the
Developer and any contractors. Notice may be given personally to an individual
representative of the contractor or Developer and /or sent by mail to the Developer or
contractor. If construction work continues without filing of an appropriate bond, the City
shall be entitled to seek an injunction to prevent further work on the project until such time
as an appropriate bond is filed and to seek such other and further relief as may be deemed
appropriate. In addition to any equitable relief, the City may seek monetary damages and
upon judgment shall be entitled to its costs and fees in pursuit of any action under the
terms of this paragraph.
11. In addition to the remedies for default provided to the City by the financial
guarantees contained within this Agreement, the City shall have the right without notice or
hearing to Developer, or any successor in title, to impose special assessments for any
amount to which the City is entitled by virtue of this Agreement upon each and every lot
within the subdivision. Such assessments shall be imposed on the individual parcels in
accordance with such parcel's share of the amount to which the City is entitled in
accordance with this Agreement and which amount has not been paid by the Developer of
such parcel or its successors or assigns. With respect to defaulting Developer, this
provision constitutes Developer's consent to the installation by the City or designee of all
public improvements and remediations required by this Agreement and constitutes
Developer's, and any successors in title, waiver and consent to all special assessment
proceedings as described in Section 66.0703, of the Wisconsin Statutes. This covenant is
intended to run with the land and to survive any subsequent divestiture of title by Developer
to, and shall be binding on, any successor in title. The remedies provided in this
Agreement are not exclusive. The City may use any other remedies avaiabie to it.
12. Developer agrees to pay any costs associated with the maintenance or
replacement of water stop boxes damaged during the development of this subdivision. It
shall riot be necessary for the City to determine or establish by whom the damage was
done. Developer also agrees to pay any costs associated with maintenance to the gravel
