DUTIES OF GRANTOR(S):
1. Grantor(s) shall regularly inspect and maintain/repair the private Stormwater
Facilities and Trees on the Property in accordance with the standards specified in
the approved Civil Engineering Plans under City of Renton Nu mber U15006542
(the “Civil Plans”) on file with the City pursuant to City Codes as now collectively

within four weeks after each inspection, maintain/repair the Stormwater Facilities
and/or Trees as required by City Code and in accordance with the Civil Plans.
3. Grantor(s) shall inspect each element of the Stormwater Facilities and Trees
whenever the City’s authorized staff member, in his/her sole discretion,
determines that unacceptable conditions exist within or adjoining to the
Stormwater Facilities and/or Tree Requirements. Similarly, the City’s authorized
staff member, in his/her sole discretion, may require the Grantor(s) to complete
the maintenance/repair of the Stormwater Facilities and Tree Requirements
within a shorter time period than allowed in Section 2, above.

4. Grantor(s), in effecting this maintenance/repair, shall restore the Stormwater
Facilities and Tree Requirements to an acceptable condition to comport with the
Civil Plans, City Code, or otherwise directed by the City’s authorized staff
member.
5. Grantor(s) is hereby required to obtain written approval from the City prior to
grading, filling, piping, cutting or removing vegetation (except for routine and
minor landscape maintenance) in open vegetated drainage facilities (such as
biofiltration swales, channels, ditches, ponds, etc.) or performing any alterations
or modifications to the Stormwater Facilities or Tree Requirements. In such
event, Grantor(s) shall obtain all necessary permits and provide all required
plans and reports as required by City Code and state and federal laws.
6. Grantor(s) is hereby required to keep the Stormwater Facilities free from all
debris, including preventing materials stored outside from leaking, spilling, or
being dumped in the stormwater system, or that may collect on top of, or in,
roof downspout infiltration systems, yard drains with overflow, or any dry well,
grated drain cover, catch basin or infiltration system, if any, located with in
privately owned lots that are part of the overall Stormwater Facilities located
within the development.
7. Grantor(s) shall assume all responsibility for the implementation and cost of any
maintenance and/or repairs to the Stormwater Facilities and Tree Requirements.
8. Upon recording of the Short Plat described herein, the owner of Lot 4, over which
the Stormwater Facilities are located, shall be deemed the “Designated Owner”
for purposes of coordination, maintenance, repair, and notice as each relates to
the covenant terms contained herein.

shall be responsible for a pro-rata 1/4th share of the cost of any maintenance or
repair of the Stormwater Facilities. Each owner of a lot within the recorded Short
Plat is solely responsible for the cost of any maintenance or repair of the Tree
Requirements as they may be located on each owner’s respective lot.
10. Within 30 calendar days of the Designated Owner providing copies of the
invoice(s) for any maintenance and/or repair of the Stormwater Facilities as
described herein, the remaining lot owners shall submit their pro rata share
(1/4th) payment to the Designated Owner. The Designated Owner shall forward
all payments to the person(s) or entit(y)(ies) which provided the maintenance
and/or repair service.

days, the Designated Owner may cause a lien to be recorded against that lot
owner's parcel in the amount of payment due plus any interest, late fees, and/or
costs incurred by the Designated Owner in recording the lien.

of the Stormwater Facilities as described herein, of payments made to those who
performed the maintenance and/or repair services, and of the pro rata payments
made by the lot owners.
13. Upon written agreement by a simple majority vote of the lot owners within the
Short Plat, the Designated Owner may be changed to the owner of any lot within
the Short Plat, provided that such owner accepts appointment as the Designated
Owner. Such written agreement and acceptance of appointment shall be
recorded in the records of King County, Washington. All lot owners (including
the current Designated Owner) shall be given the opportunity to vote, and if they
choose not to vote (by not appearing at the designated voting time or by not
returning a written ballot by the due date noted), a simple majority of those lot
owners who do choose to vote shall be sufficient to establish a new Designated
Owner.
RIGHTS OF THE CITY:
1. The City shall have ingress and egress rights to the Property for inspection and
monitoring of the Stormwater Facilities and Tree Requirements in order to
determine that performance, operational flows, and/or absence of defects in the
Stormwater Facilities and Tree Requirements, are in accordance with City Code.
2. If the City determines that, pursuant to the Civil Plans and City Code, the
Stormwater Facilities or Tree Requirements require maintenance and/or repair
work, the City shall deliver written notice to the Grantor specifically describing
the required maintenance and/or repair. The notice shall also set a reasonable
time in which Grantor must complete the described work. The notice shall also
state that the City or its authorized agent may perform the authorized
maintenance and/or repair if the Grantor(s) fails to complete the maintenance
and/or repair within the time allowed.
3. If the Grantor(s) does not complete the required maintenance and/or repair
within the time allowed as set forth in the City’s notice, the City or its authorized
agent will not commence the maintenance and/or repair work described in the
City’s notice until at least seven (7) calendar days after the expiration of the
time allotted to Grantor to make the maintenance and/or repair. However, if the
City determines, at its sole discretion, that an imminent danger exists, the City’s
obligation to provide written notice shall be deemed waived, and the City or its
authorized agent may immediately begin the required maintenance and/or repair
work.

annum.
