use of power equipment. The Developer shall submit plans and specifications which have been
prepared by a competent registered professional engineer to the City for approval by the City
Engineer. The Developer shall instruct its engineer to provide adequate field inspection
personnel to assure an acceptable level of quality control. In addition, the City may, at the City's
discretion and at the Developer's expense, have one or more City inspectors and a soil engineer
inspect the work as the City may reasonably determine. The Developer, its contractors and
subcontractors, shall follow all instructions received from the City's inspectors. The Developer's

for design changes and contract administration between the Developer and the Developer's
contractor. The Developer or its engineer shall schedule a pre-construction meeting at a mutually
agreeable time at the City Council chambers with all parties concerned, including the City staff',

dewatering shall be in accordance with all applicable county, state, and federal rules and

proposed action, but failure of the City to do so will not affect the Developer's and City's rights
or obligations hereunder. If the Developer does not reimburse the City for any cost the City
incurred for such work within ten(10) days,the City may draw down the "security" to pay any
costs. No development, utility, or street construction will be allowed and no building permits will

certified by a registered land surveyor or engineer that all improvements are completed
according to the approved plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing,the City may issue building
permits to the Developer, prior to completion of all grading,provided the City Engineer has
