The above listed agencies also have a right to enter the Property when necessary for abatement of a public nuisance or correction of a violation of the City Stormwater Regulations.

In the event the Property Owner fails to maintain the stormwater treatment measure(s) as shown on the approved Site Plan in good working order acceptable to the City and in accordance with the Inspection and Maintenance Checklist, the City, and its authorized agents and employees with reasonable notice, may enter the Property and take whatever steps it deems necessary and appropriate to return the stormwater treatment measure(s) to good working order. Such notice will not be necessary if emergency conditions require immediate remedial action. This provision shall not be construed to allow the City to erect any structure of a permanent nature on the Property. It is expressly understood and agreed that the City is under no obligation to maintain or repair the stormwater treatment measure(s) and in no event shall this Agreement be construed to impose any such obligation on the City. 9. Reimbursement of the City Expenditures.

If these costs are not paid within the prescribed time period, the City may assess the Property Owner the cost of the work, both direct and indirect, and applicable penalties. Said assessment shall be a lien against the Property or may be placed on the property tax bill and collected as ordinary taxes by the City. The actions described in this section are in addition to, and not in-lieu- of, any and all legal remedies as provided by law, available to the City as a result of the Property Owner's failure to maintain the stormwater treatment measure(s). 10. Indemnification. The Property Owner shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend the City and its authorized agents, officers, officials and employees from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, damages, liabilities, losses, accidents, casualties, occurrences, and payments, including attorney fees claimed or which might arise or be asserted against the City that are alleged or proven to result or arise from the construction, presence, existence or maintenance of the stormwater treatment measure(s) by the Property Owner or the City (collectively, "Claim").
