In addition, the application will request a PD Rezoning to allow the conversion of the existing general office building into use as a medical office building. Lastly, Developer is preparing application for Environmental and Design Review Permit for the construction of anew multi-level parking structure on the adjacent surface parking lot for use by Kaiser Permanente ("the proposed project"). B.

D. In addition, due to the complexity of the environmental review process and the expertise required to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City must hire an Environmental Consulting firm to provide CEQA guidance and prepare an Initial Study in accordance with CEQA on the condition that Developer reimburse the City for its costs incurred in connection with these outside vendors ("Contract CEQA Consultant").

Any remaining funds in the Reimbursement Account after payment of all fees and costs related to the proposed project shall be refunded to Developer. B. The City will hold Contract Amount funds in the Reimbursement Account and charge invoices received from Contract Planner against the Reimbursement Account. The City will provide Developer with copies of all such invoices, however, Developer agrees that the City may redact portions of the invoices to protect the City's attorney- client privilege. Within 15 days of Developer's receipt of the City's written notice that the Reimbursement Account has been reduced to a balance of less than $5,000.00, Developer agrees to pay the remaining 50% of the Contract Amount ($35,000.00) to the City to replenish the Reimbursement Account. Developer agrees to continue making such payments until tie City is reimbursed for all the Contract Planner costs related to the proposed project. The City will hold any funds remaining in the Reimbursement Account until the City's processing of the proposed project is completed. Although the Reimbursement Account is primarily intended to fund the costs related to the Contract Planner, Developer agrees that the City may collect any unpaid development fees and charges related to the proposed project from the funds in the Reimbursement Account. Any remaining funds in the Reimbursement Account after payment of all fees and costs related to the proposed project shall be refunded to Developer. C. Once the scope and extent of the environmental conditions are identified through the Initial Study, a revised contract with Contract planner for the preparation of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) will be prepared and this agreement will be revised. Once the scope of the EIR is identified and the contract with the contract/environmental planner, there will be a 25% Initial Study/EIR administrative required to cover City staff time associated with review of EIR and administration of contract. This 25% administrative fee will be based on the eventual budget for the preparation of the EIR and shall be paid at the time of submittal of the fund for the EIR contract and shall be by a separate check. Page 3 of 7 4. Automatic Withdrawal of Application. Developer's failure to make the payments required by the provisions of Section 3 of this Agreement shall result in an automatic withdrawal of the application for the proposed project. Notwithstanding such automatic withdrawal, Developer shall remain responsible for all amounts due pursuant to this Agreement and shall submit the same for payment to the City within 30 days of the City's demand for payment. After automatic withdrawal of the application pursuant to this Section, should Developer desire to re -apply for approval of the proposed project, City will require that Developer pay all regular City fees then applicable to initiate processing of a new application. Should Developer fail to make the payments required under this Agreement, or otherwise breach this Agreement, the City will not be obligated to complete any environmental review that has been initiated with respect to the proposed project. 5.

Accordingly, Developer understands and agrees that in the performance of their services, including the preparation and review of all necessary environmental documents, Contract Planner will be as accurate and objective as reasonably possible. The City may determine during the course of processing of the proposed project application that final approval will require issuance of other permits in addition to those listed in Recital B of this Agreement, due to changes in the applicable state law, City Municipal Code, changes to the proposed project, or otherwise. Due to the nature of the required environmental and planning review, the City cannot predict with accuracy the total costs that the City will incur and charge to Developer concerning the proposed project.
