of Works or as directed by the Township Engineer. If he fails to adhere to the
scheduling provisions outlined in the Schedule of Works or the Declaration, or
having commenced to install the aforesaid works, fails or neglects to proceed

installed in the manner required by the Township Engineer, then upon the
Township Engineer giving seven (7) days written notice by prepaid registered
mail to the Developer, the Township Engineer may, without further notice, enter
upon the said land and proceed to supply all materials and to do all necessary
works in connection with the installation of the said works, including the repair or
reconstruction of faulty work and the replacement of materials not in accordance
with the specifications, and to charge the costs thereof, together with an
engineering fee of ten percent (10%) of the cost of such materials and works to

e
Employees or agents of the Township may enter onto the lands at any time, or
from time to time for the purpose of making emergency repairs to any of the
works. Such entry and repairing shall not be deemed an acceptance of the

connection therewith, or a release of the Developer from any of his obligations
under this Agreement.

I. The works may be used prior to acceptance by the Township or other
authorized persons for the purpose for which such works are designed.

and regrading of lots may be necessary during or after building construction. The
Grading Plan shall show all existing and final grades on lot corners, as well as
mid-lot elevations, where deemed necessary by the Township Engineer.
It is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that drainage of surface water
on the lots and blocks on the Plan is the sole responsibility of the respective lot
owners once the required drainage works have been constructed by the
Developer.
e
The storm swales shall be landscaped and maintained by all subsequent lot
owners. The purpose of the storm swales is to accommodate storm drainage
waters from the subject lot and adjacent lands. No lot owner in the subdivision
shall encumber or impede storm drainage in any manner whatsoever. In the
event that the Developer, or any subsequent lot owner, obstructs, impedes, or
interferes with the storm drainage flow through any part of the storm swale, or
interferes with the acceptance of water from any connecting swales, then the
Township shall have the right, if it so elects, to enter upon the subject lands to
rectify such problems so that the swales can serve their original purpose.
Within the swale area, the Developer, and any subsequent lot owner, shall not
construct any works, remove, or permit to be removed, any soil from the said
swale/easement, excavate, drill, install, erect, or permit to be excavated, drilled,
installed or erected in, over, upon, under or through the said swale/easement,
any fence, well, foundation, pavement, building or other structure or other
installation.
e
The lot owner of any lot in the subdivision upon which the Township elects to
enter for the purpose of rectifying the said work, hereby agrees to indemnify and
release the Township from and against all claims, demands, actions or causes of
action whatsoever arising as a result of the Township or of its servants or agents
entering upon the lands for the purpose of correcting drainage problems. The
cost of such work will be for the account of the lot owner. Any invoices not paid
within thirty (30) days after the due date, shall be added to the tax roll and
collected in a like manner as realty taxes, as per Section 326 of the Municipal
Act.
The Developer agrees to deliver a copy of this clause to each and every
prospective purchaser and/or builder obtaining a Building Permit for any lot or
part of a lot on the said Plan of Subdivision.
Generally, the drainage facilities will consist of open ditches within the
subdivision or storm sewers in certain locations to provide a satisfactory
drainage outlet, and will be in accordance with the Drainage Plan SS-1 prepared
by URS Cole Sherman, and approved by the Township Engineer and the
Township of Oro-Medonte sewage approval authority, or subsequent approval
authority.

When all of the services have been completed, including the surface lift of
asphalt in accordance with this Agreement or in a particular stage, the Township
Engineer and Public Works Official shall make an inspection to ensure that the
Township will accept the road system. The Township Engineer shall issue a
Certificate of Substantial Completion and Acceptance (Aboveground Services)
when the works are accepted by the Township. This Certificate may contain a
list of minor deficiencies, which have to be corrected by the Developer, but which
are not considered of sufficient importance to delay the issuance of the
Certificate and the acceptance of the services by the Township. The two (2) year
maintenance period will commence when the Township Council approves the
issuance of the Certificate.
MAINTENANCE OF WORKS
The Developer will be responsible for the repair and maintenance of all the
subdivision services for a period of two (2) years from the date the Township
Council approves the Certificate of Substantial Completion and Acceptance. This

$12.00/m3
The Township may adjust these rates from time to time.

this Agreement before the roads are accepted by the Township, shall not be
deemed in any way to be an acceptance by the Township of the roads in the said
subdivision upon which such work is done. The Developer acknowledges that
the Township, whilst providing winter control, may damage or interfere with the
works of the Developer and covenants that he will make no claims against the
Township for such interference or damage, providing the work is carried out in a
