EXHIBIT A
RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPER AGREEMENT
An Agreement between the City of Southlake, Texas, hereinafter referred to as the
"City", and the undersigned Developer, hereinafter referred to as the "Developer', of
hereinafter referred to as the "Addition" to the City of Southlake, Tarrant County,
Texas, for the installation of certain community facilities located therein, and to provide
city services thereto. It is understood by and between the parties that this Agreement is
applicable to the lots contained within the Addition and to the off-site
improvements necessary to support the Addition.
1. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
A. It is agreed and understood by the parties hereto that the Developer shall
employ a civil engineer licensed to practice in the State of Texas for the
design and preparation of the plans and specifications for the construction
of all facilities covered by this Agreement.
B. Since the Developer is prepared to develop the Addition as rapidly as
possible and is desirous of selling lots to builders and having residential
building activity begin as quickly as possible and the City is desirous of
having the Addition completed as rapidly as possible, the City agrees to
release 10% of the lots, , after installation of the water and sewer
mains. Framing shall not commence until water quality is approved by the
City and all appropriate Fire Code requirements are satisfied and street
signs with street names are in place. Temporary all-weather metal signs
securely fastened in the ground are acceptable until permanent street
signs are installed. The Developer recognizes that the remaining building
permits or Certificates of Occupancy for residential dwellings will not be
issued until the supporting public works infrastructure including permanent
street signs with block numbers and regulatory signs within the Addition
have been accepted by the City. This will serve as an incentive to the
Developer to see that all remaining items are completed.
C. The Developer will present to the City either a cash escrow, Letters of
Credit or performance bond and payment bond acceptable to the City
guaranteeing and agreeing to pay an amount equal to 100% of the value
of the construction cost of all of the facilities to be constructed by the
Developer, and providing for payment to the City of such amounts, up to
the total remaining amounts required for the completion of the Addition if
the Developer fails to complete the work within two (2) years of the signing
of this Agreement between the City and Developer. All bonds shall be
issued by a Best-rated bonding company. All Letters of Credit must meet
the Requirements for Irrevocable Letter of Credit attached hereto and
incorporated herein.
Page 1 of 20
~ L
The value of the performance bond, Letters of Credit or cash escrow will
reduce at a rate consistent with the amount of work that has been
completed by the Developer and accepted by the City. Each request for
reduction or payment of escrow funds must be accompanied by lien
release(s) executed by all subcontractors and/or suppliers prior to the
release of escrow funds or reduction in value of the account. Performance
and payment bond, Letters of Credit or cash escrow from the prime
contractor(s) or other entity reasonably acceptable to the City, hereinafter
referred to as Contractor, will be acceptable in lieu of Developer's
obligations specified above.
D. The Developer agrees to furnish to the City maintenance bonds, letters of
credit or cash escrow amounting to 100% of the cost of construction of
underground utilities and 100% of the construction cost for paving. These
maintenance bonds, letters of credit or cash escrow will be for a period of
two (2) years and will be issued prior to the final City acceptance of the
Addition. The maintenance bonds, letters of credit or cash escrow will be
supplied to the City by the contractors performing the work, and the City
will be named as the beneficiary if the contractors fail to perform any
required maintenance.
If the Developer chooses to construct bar ditches in lieu of curb and gutter,
and the City approved the design and grade of bar ditches, Developer
understands and agrees to provide maintenance on the bar ditches for a
period of two years from the date of acceptance of the Addition.
Maintenance includes trash and debris cleanup, mowing, and erosion
control.
E. Until the performance and payment bonds, Letters of Credit or cash
escrow required in Paragraph C have been furnished as required, no
approval of work on or in the Addition shall be given by City and no work
shall be initiated on or in said Addition by Developer, save and except as
provided above.
F. It is further agreed and understood by the parties hereto that upon
acceptance by the City, title to all facilities and improvements mentioned
hereinabove shall be vested in the City and Developer hereby relinquishes
any right, title or interest in and to said facilities or any part thereof. It is
further understood and agreed that until the City accepts such
improvements, the City shall have no liability or responsibility in
connection with any such facilities. Acceptance of the facilities shall occur
at such time that the City, through its City Manager or his duly authorized
representative, provides Developer with a written acknowledgement that
all facilities are complete, have been inspected and approved and are
being accepted by the City.
Page 2 of 20
r G. On all public facilities included in this Agreement for which Developer
awards his own construction contract, Developer agrees to the following
procedure:
1. Developer agrees to pay the following:
a. Inspection fees equal to three percent (3%) of the cost of the
water, street, drainage and sanitary sewer facilities, on all
facilities included in this Agreement for which Developer
awards his or her own construction contract, to be paid prior
to construction of each phase and based on actual bid
construction cost;
b. Administrative Processing fee equal to two percent (2%) of
the cost of water, street, drainage and sanitary sewer
facilities, on all facilities included in this Agreement for which
Developer awards his or her own construction contract, to be
paid prior to construction of each phase and based on actual
bid construction cost;
C. Trench testing (95% Standard);
d. The additional charge for inspections during Saturday,
Sunday, holidays, and after normal working hours;
e. Any charges for re-testing as a result of failed tests;
f. All gradation tests required to insure proper cement and/or

c. Concrete cylinder tests and concrete coring samples.
The City can delay connection of buildings to service lines or water
mains constructed under this Agreement until said water mains and
service lines have been completed to the satisfaction of and
acceptance by the City.
Page 3 of 20
H. The Developer and any third party, independent entity engaged in the
construction of houses, hereinafter referred to as "Builder' will be
responsible for mowing all grass and weeds and otherwise reasonably
maintaining the aesthetics of all land and lots in said Addition which have
not been sold to third parties. After fifteen (15) days written notice, should
the Developer or Builder fail in this responsibility, the City may contract for
this service and bill the Developer or Builder for reasonable costs. Should
such cost remain unpaid for 120 days after notice, the City can file a lien
on such property so maintained.
1. Any guarantee of payment instrument (Performance Bond, Letter of
Credit, etc.) submitted by the Developer or Contractor on a form other
than the one which has been previously approved by the City as
"acceptable" shall be submitted to the City Attorney and this Agreement
shall not be considered in effect until such City Attorney has approved the
instrument. Approval by the City shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed.
J. Any surety company through which a bond is written shall be a surety
company duly authorized to do business in the State of Texas, provided
that the City, through the City Manager, shall retain the right to reject any
surety company as a surety for any work under this or any other
Developer's Agreement within the City regardless of such company's
authorization to do business in Texas. Approval by the City shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed.
II. FACILITIES
A. ON SITE WATER
The Developer hereby agrees to install water facilities to service lots as

2. The Developer will be responsible for:
a. Installation and two year operation cost of street lights, which
is payable to the City prior to final acceptance of the
Addition; or an agreement with utility provider stating that no
charge will be made for street lights for the two-year
duration.
b. Installation of all street signs designating the names of the
streets inside the Addition, said signs to be of a type, size,
color and design standard generally employed by the

construction has commenced. The Developer hereby agrees to
advise the City Director of Public Works as quickly as possible
when such a need has been identified and to work cooperatively
with the City to make such utility change in a manner that will be
least disruptive to street construction or stability.

compliance with all applicable city ordinances, regulations and codes and
shall be responsible for all construction costs, materials and engineering.

requirements, the City will reimburse the Developer for the oversize cost
greater than the cost of an 8" line.
F. EROSION CONTROL
During construction of the Addition and after the streets have been
installed, the Developer agrees to keep the streets free from soil build-up.
The Developer agrees to use soil control measures, such as those
included in the NCTCOG STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS FOR PUBLIC
WORKS CONSTRUCTION, Division 1000 EROSION AND SEDIMENT
CONTROL to prevent soil erosion. It will be the Developer's responsibility
Page 6 of 20
to present to the Director of Public Works a soil control development plan
that will be implemented for this Addition. When in the opinion of the
Director of Public Works there is sufficient soil build-up on the streets or
other drainage areas and notification has been given to the Developer, the
Developer will have seventy-two (72) hours to clear the soil from the
streets or affected areas. If the Developer does not remove the soil from
the street within 72 hours, the City may cause the soil to be removed
either by contract or City forces and place the soil within the Addition at
the Developer's expense. All expenses must be paid to the City prior to
acceptance of the Addition.
After construction of the Addition and prior to acceptance by the City, the
Developer agrees to have a permanent erosion control plan prepared and
approved by the Director of Public Works and have the plan installed and
working, effectively, in the opinion of the Director of Public Works. This
erosion control will prevent soil erosion from the newly created lots from
washing into street rights of way, drainage ways or other private property.

may incorporate a number of unique amenities and aesthetic
improvements such as ponds, aesthetic lakes, unique landscaping, walls

association.

Developer may provide unique amenities within public right-of-way, such
as landscaping, irrigation, lighting, etc., for the enhancement of the
Addition. The Developer agrees to maintain these amenities until such
responsibility is turned over to a homeowners association. The Developer
and his successors and assigns understand that the City shall not be
responsible for the replacement of these amenities under any
circumstances and further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the City
from any and all damages, loss or liability of any kind whatsoever by
reason of injury to property or third person occasioned by its use of the

specifications. Such approval shall not be deemed to be an assumption of

specifications prepared by the consulting engineer, his officers, agents,
servants or employees, it being the intent of the parties that approval by
the Director of Public Works signifies the City's approval on only the
general design concept of the improvements to be constructed. In this

agents, servants or employees, or any of them, on account thereof, to pay
all expenses and satisfy all judgement which may be incurred by or
rendered against them or any of them in connection herewith.
D. This Agreement or any part herein, or any interest herein, shall not be

performance bond, Letter of Credit, or other security provided by
Developer and complete such work at Developer's expense, provided
however, that if the construction under this Agreement shall have started
