project in accordance with existing policies, rules and
regulations, and subject to conditions of approval, will strengthen
the public planning process, encourage private participation in
comprehensive planning, and reduce the economic costs of
development."

follows:
"Any city._may enter into a Development Agreement with any person
having a legal or equitable interest in real property for the development of

permitted uses of the property, the density of intensity of use, the maximum
height and size of proposed buildings, and provisions for reservation or
dedication of land for public purposes. The Development Agreement may

WITNESSETH:
A. Thc lack of certainty in thc approval ofdcvclopment projects can result in a waste

and commitment to comprehensive planning which would make maximum efficient utilization of
resources at thc 1cast cconomlc cost to the public.
B. California Government Code Sections 65864-65869.5 (thc "Development
Agreement Statute") were therefore enacted authorizing a municipality to enter into binding
dcvelopmant agreemants with persons having legal or equitable interests in real property.
C. Owner has a legal or equitable interest in certain real property located in City
more particularly described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein by this
reference (the "Properly").
D. On ,2002, thc City Council (thc "Council") made a determination
pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 21166 and State CEQA Guidelines
Section 15162, that the proposed development of the Property is within the scope of the
previously certified Environmental Impact Reports for the Subarea 18 Specific Plan end the
General Plan Update, and that no additional environmental review is required.
E. Concurrently with adoption of the Ordinance approving this Agreement, the City
Planner has approved Development Plan Review No. DRC2002-00499 ("Development
Review"). This Agreement and the Development Review shall constilute the "Project

Plan and sp~-ifically has determined that this Agreement is fair, just and reasonable, and City
has cunclud~d that the economic interests of its citizens and the public health, safety and welfare

I. In light of the benefits to the City as a result of the development of the Project,

permitted uses, the density and intensity of use, the maximum height and size of proposed

F. Timing of Development. Because the California Supreme Court held in
Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo, 37 Cal.3d 465 (1984), that the failure of the parties
therein to provide for the timing of development resulted in a later-adopted initiative restricting
the timing of development to prevail over the parties' agreement, it is the parties' intent to cure
that deficiency by acknowledging and providing that Owner shall have the right (without
obligation) to develop the Property in such order and at such rate and at such times as Owner
deems appropriate within the exercise of its subjective business judgment.

(whether tentative, vesting tentative or final), building permits, occupancy certificates or other
entitlemeats to use or service (including, without limitation, water and sewer) approved, issued
or granted within City, or portions of City, shall apply to the Property to the extent such
moratorium or limitation on parking is in conflict with Required Parking Ratio set forth in this
Agreement; provided, however, the provisions of this Section shall not affect City's compliance
with moratoria or other limitations mandated by other governmental agencies or court-imposed
moratoria or other limitations.
H. Vesting of Owner's Rights. The rights and entitlements granted to Owner
pursuant to this Agreement shall be and constitute "vested rights" or the equivalent of "vested

issues aff~xting the Propexty shall not delay or stop the development, processing or construction
