STORM WATER MANAGEMENT FACILITIES
MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT
Lot 10, Highcrest Court
(G1603-07)
The undersigned grantor(s) declares:
Documentary Transfer Tax is $ -0- pursuant to R & T Code 11922 (conveyance to a Government Agency)
This AGREEMENT for the maintenance and repair of certain Storm Water Management Facilities is
entered into between the Property Owners, Donald L. Mechling and Kathleen A. Mechling,
(hereinafter referred to collectively as "OWNER") and the City of Poway (hereinafter referred to as
"CITY") for the benefit of the CITY, the OWNER, the successors in interest to the CITY or the
OWNER, and the public generally.
WHEREAS, OWNER is the owner of certain real property located in the City of Poway, California,
more particularly described in Exhibit "A", hereto (hereinafter referred to as the "PROPERTY"), which
is being developed into a single family residence, in accordance with applications for Tentative Tract
Map 06-004, Minor Development Review Application 15-012 and Grading Permit Number G1603-07,
which are on file with the CITY. This Agreement is required as a condition of approval for such
development.
WHEREAS, in accordance with the City of Poway's Stormwater Management and Discharge Control
Ordinance, Poway Municipal Code, Chapter 13 and 16 (the "Stormwater Ordinance"), the City of
Poway Subdivision Ordinance, the City of Poway Zoning Ordinance, the City of Poway Grading
Ordinance and/or other ordinances or regulations of CITY which regulate land development and urban
runoff, OWNER has proposed that storm water runoff from the PROPERTY be managed by the use of
the following Storm Water Management Facilities which are identified as "Best Management
Practices" or "BMPs":
A bioretention basin at the northern edge of the pad.
The precise location(s) and extent of the BMPs are indicated in the approved Water Quality Technical
Report, dated September 2015, and on the approved grading plans on file with CITY's Development
Services Department as G1603-07. The manner and standards by which the BMPs must be repaired
and maintained in order to retain their effectiveness are as set forth in the Operation and Maintenance
Plan (hereinafter "O&M PLAN"), which is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "B".
Because additional impervious area may require the addition of or alteration of storm water
—1- ` t
management areas and strategies, no impervious area may be added to the project site without prior
approval from the City Engineer. Additional impervious area includes, but is not limited to, patio
covers, hardscape improvements, and building additions.
WHEREAS, OWNER's representations that the BMPs will be maintained have been relied upon by
CITY in approving OWNER's development applications. It is the purpose of this Agreement to assure
that the BMPs are maintained, by creating obligations that are enforceable against the OWNER and
the OWNER's successors in interest in the PROPERTY. It is intended that these obligations be
enforceable notwithstanding other provisions related to BMP maintenance that are provided by law.
NOW, THEREFORE, for consideration of (a) CITY's approval of the above development applications
and (b) the mutual covenants set forth herein, IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS:
Maintenance of Storm Water Management Facilities. OWNER agrees, for itself and its
successors in interest, to all or any portion of the PROPERTY, to comply in all respects with
the requirements of the Stormwater Ordinance with regards to the maintenance of BMPs, and
in particular agrees to perform, at its sole cost, expense and liability, the following
"MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES": all inspections, cleaning, repairs, servicing, maintenance and
other actions specified in the O&M PLAN, with respect to all of the BMPs listed above, at the
times and in the manner specified in the O&M PLAN. OWNER shall keep records of this
maintenance and provide copies of such records and annual certification of maintenance as
requested by CITY. OWNER shall initiate, perform and complete all MAINTENANCE
ACTIVITIES at the required time, without request or demand from CITY or any other agency.
OWNER further agrees that "MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES" shall include replacement or
modification of the BMPs in the event of failure. Replacement shall be with an identical type,
size and model of BMP, except that:
(a) The City Engineer may authorize substitution of an alternative BMP if he or she
determines that it will be as effective as the failed BMP; and
(b) If the failure of the BMP, in the judgment of the City Engineer, indicates that the BMP in
use is inappropriate or inadequate to the circumstances, the BMP must be modified or
replaced with a more effective BMP to prevent future failure in the same or similar
circumstances.
2. Notices. OWNER further agrees that it shall, prior to transferring ownership of any land on
which any of the above BMPs are located, or any lot or portion of the PROPERTY which is
served by the above BMPs, and also prior to transferring ownership of any such BMP, provide
clear written notice of the above described maintenance obligations to the transferee.
3. CITY's Right to Perform Maintenance. It is agreed that CITY shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to elect to perform any or all of the MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES if, in the CITY's
sole judgment, OWNER has failed to perform the same. Such maintenance by the CITY shall
be conducted in accordance with the nuisance abatement procedures set forth in Poway
Municipal Code Chapter 8.72. In the case of maintenance performed by the CITY, it may be
performed by CITY forces, or a contractor hired by the CITY, at the CITY's sole election. It is
recognized and understood that the CITY makes no representation that it intends to or will
perform any of the MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES, and any election by CITY to perform any of
the MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES shall in no way relieve OWNER of its continuing
maintenance obligations under this agreement. If CITY elects to perform any of the
MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES, it is understood that CITY shall be deemed to be acting as the
agent of the OWNER and said work shall be without warranty or representation by CITY as to
safety or effectiveness, shall be deemed to be accepted by OWNER "as is", and shall be
SWMFMA Mechling Lot 10 (G1603-07) Page 2
covered by OWNER's indemnity provisions below.
If CITY performs any of the MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES, after CITY has demanded that
OWNER perform the same and OWNER has failed to do so within a reasonable time stated in
the CITY's demand, then OWNER shall pay all of CITY's costs incurred in performing the
MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES, plus an administrative fee. OWNER's obligation to pay CITY's
costs of performing MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES is a continuing obligation. If OWNER fails to
pay CITY's costs for performing MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES, CITY may assess a lien on the
property or properties of the responsible parties pursuant to the procedures set forth in Poway
Municipal Code Chapter 8.72.
4. Grant of Easement to CITY. OWNER hereby grants to CITY a perpetual easement over,
under and across all of the PROPERTY, for purposes of accessing the BMPs, inspecting the
BMPs, and performing any of the MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES specified in Paragraph 1
above. CITY shall have the right, at any time and without prior notice to OWNER, to enter
upon any part of said area as may be necessary or convenient for such purposes. OWNER
shall at all times maintain the PROPERTY so as to make CITY's access clear and
unobstructed.
5. Administration of Agreement for CITY. CITY hereby designates the City Engineer as the
officer charged with responsibility and authority to administer this Agreement on behalf of
CITY. Any notice or communication to the City related to the implementation of this
Agreement shall be addressed to:
City Engineer
City of Poway
13325 Civic Center Drive
Poway, CA 92064
6. Defense and Indemnity. CITY shall not be liable for, and OWNER and its successors in
interest shall defend and indemnify CITY and the employees and agents of CITY (collectively
'CITY PARTIES"), against any and all claims, demands, liability, judgments, awards, fines,
mechanic's liens or other liens, labor disputes, losses, damages, expenses, charges or costs
of any kind or character, including attorneys' fees and court costs (hereinafter collectively
referred to as "CLAIMS"), related to this Agreement and arising either directly or indirectly from
any act, error, omission or negligence of OWNER, OWNER's successors, or their contractors,
licensees, agents, servants or employees, including, without limitation, claims caused by the
concurrent negligent act, error or omission, whether active or passive, of CITY PARTIES.
OWNER shall have no obligation, however, to defend or indemnify CITY PARTIES from a
claim if it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such claim was caused by the
sole negligence or willful misconduct of CITY PARTIES. Nothing in this Agreement, CITY's
approval of the development application or plans and specifications, or inspection of the work
is intended to acknowledge responsibility for any such matter, and CITY PARTIES shall have
absolutely no responsibility or liability therefore unless otherwise provided by applicable law.
Allocation of Costs. Following the sale or transfer of any of the individual residential lots by
OWNER, the cost of the MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES required by this Agreement shall be
divided equally by all lot owners, and paid by each lot owner or his or her heirs, assigns and
successors in interest. This requirement shall be binding on all lot owners in the subdivision,
and each shall be responsible for his or her equal share of the cost associated with the
maintenance.
8. Agreement Binds Successors and Runs With the PROPERTY. It is understood and
SWMFMA Mechling Lot 10 (G1603-07) Page 3
agreed that the terms, covenants and conditions herein contained shall constitute covenants
running with the land and shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns of OWNER and CITY, shall be deemed to be for the benefit of all
persons owning any interest in the PROPERTY (including the interest of CITY or its
successors in the easement granted herein). It is the intent of the parties hereto that this
Agreement shall be recorded and shall be binding upon all persons purchasing or otherwise
acquiring all or any lot, unit or other portion of the PROPERTY, who shall be deemed to have
consented to and become bound by all the provisions hereof.
9. OWNER's Continuing Responsibilities Where Work Commenced or Permit Obtained.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no transfer or conveyance of the
PROPERTY or any portion thereof shall in any way relieve OWNER of or otherwise affect
OWNER's responsibilities for installation or maintenance of BMPs which may have arisen
under the ordinances or regulations of CITY referred to in this Agreement, or other federal,
state or CITY laws, on account of OWNER having obtained a permit which creates such
obligations or having commenced grading, construction or other land disturbance work.
10. Amendment and Release. The terms of this Agreement may be modified only by a written
amendment approved and signed by the Director of Development Services acting on behalf of
CITY and by OWNER or OWNER's successor(s) in interest. This Agreement may be
terminated and OWNER and the PROPERTY released from the covenants set forth herein, by
a release, which CITY may execute if it determines that another mechanism will assure the
ongoing maintenance of the BMPs or that it is no longer necessary to assure such
maintenance.
11. Governing Law and Severability. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the
State of California. Venue in any action related to this Agreement shall be in the Superior
Court of the State of California, County of San Diego. OWNER hereby waives any right to
remove any such action from San Diego County as is otherwise permitted by California Code
of Civil Procedure Section 394. In the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement are
held to be unenforceable or invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, the validity, and
enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement on the dates set forth
hereinafter.

BIORETENTION
NO SCALE
Note: for bioretention location, see attached "BMP Location" exhibit.
The operation and maintenance needs for bioretentions are as follows:
• Use of fertilizers in all landscaping area and application of pesticides outside should be
limited and they should not be applied during times of likely rainfall to avoid discharge
into stormwater runoff. Fertilizing of all landscaping should be avoided during the rainy
season.
• Inspect that irrigation system covering all on-site landscaping is adjusted correctly. For
instance, sprinkler heads are pointed in the correct direct and are spraying to adequate
coverage without overspray. Additionally, inspect irrigation system leaks. Finally, check
that the irrigation system is providing enough water to keep the landscaping in a healthy
condition without over watering. The time and subsequent amount water required for
adequate irrigation of the landscaping varies depending on the season and the irrigation
timer must be adjusted accordingly. (inspect weekly)
• If grass used in any landscaping areas, periodic mowing is necessary. Grass clippings and
any other pruned vegetation must be disposed of properly in accordance with all
applicable regulations. Clipping and pruned material must not be discharged into
stormwater runoff. Please use composting of clipping whenever possible (weekly
depending on growth)
• Regular inspection for healthy growth, signs of erosion and adequate drainage (monthly
and after each storm event)
• Periodically inspect the site signs of erosion and sediment discharge. Correct problems
immediately (monthly or after each storm event). If sediment build up is visually
noticeable, till and mix into soil or remove and dispose of sediment and replenish soil to
pre -sedimentation conditions (before and after rain events).
• Inspect parking areas, driveways and all other outside areas of the site for trash, debris
and other pollutant. Remove all pollutants and dispose of properly according to type and
applicable regulations. (Daily)
• Periodic elimination of gopher and other rodents burrows which may cause loosening of
the soil and erosion of sediments (monthly)
Inspection for the need of removal and replanting of dead or unhealthy plants to fill all
bare areas (every three months)
Add more mulch as it breaks down to maintain at least 3" of depth (every six months)
II Operation and Maintenance Activities Responsible Party
Owner shall be the responsible party for operation and maintenance activities in perpetuity and
extending into future owners of subject property.
Material Disposal
Owners are responsible for complying with all federal, state, and local regulations when
disposing of material collected from the storm water quality unit and underground detention pipe
system. Water and sediment from cleanout procedures should not be dumped into sanitary
sewer.
Hazardous Wastes
Suspected Hazardous wastes will be analyzed to determine disposal options. Hazardous
materials generated on site will be handled and disposed of according to local, state, and federal
regulations. A solid or liquid waste is considered a hazardous waste if it exceeds the criteria
listed in the California Code of Federal Regulations, Title 22, Article 11 (State of California,
1985).
Records Retention
A log of all inspection and maintenance activities shall be kept for a minimum of 5 years and
shall be made available to the City of Poway upon request.
