<br />the necessary repairs, replacements or perform the necessary reconstruction and Developer shall pay to
<br />City upon demand the actual cost of such repairs, replacements or reconstruction.
<br />16. Developer Not Aaent of Citv. Neither Developer nor Developer's contractors,
<br />subcontractors, agents, officers, or employees are agents or employees of City and the Developer's
<br />relationship to City, if any, arising herefrom is strictly that of an independent contractor.
<br />17. Indemnification.
<br />17.1 Neither the City, nor its officers, agents nor employees, shall be liable or
<br />responsible for any accident, injury, loss, or damage to either property or person attributable to or
<br />arising out of the construction or installation of the Improvements. Developer shall indemnify,
<br />hold harmless and defend the City, its officers, agents and employees, from and against any and
<br />all losses, claims, costs, expenses, liabilities, damages, actions, causes of action and judgments,
<br />including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or attributable to Developer's performance
<br />under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Developer shall not be obligated under this
<br />Agreement to defend and/or indemnify the City to the extent that any of the damage or injury is
<br />caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the City or its agents or employees.
<br />17.2 Developer's obligations under this Section 17 are not conditioned or dependent
<br />upon the City, or its officers, agents and employees, whether the City prepared, supplied or
<br />reviewed any Improvement Plans or related specifications in connection with the Subdivision or
<br />the Improvements, or whether the City has insurance or other indemnification covering any of
<br />these matters.
<br />1.73 Developer's obligation to indemnify, hold harmless and defend the City shall
<br />extend to injuries to persons and damages to or alleged taking of property resulting from the
<br />design or construction of the Subdivision, and the Improvements required herein, and shall
<br />likewise extend to adjacent property owners asserting claims based upon the diversion of waters
<br />caused by the Developer's design or construction of the Improvements. The City's acceptance of
<br />the Improvements shall not constitute an assumption by the City of any responsibility or liability
<br />for any damage or alleged taking of property referenced herein. City shall not be responsible or
<br />liable for the design or construction of the Subdivision or the Improvements constructed or
<br />installed pursuant to the approved Improvements Plans or the Final Map. After City's acceptance
<br />of the Improvements, the Developer shall remain obligated to correct or eliminate all dangerous
<br />conditions created by defects in design or construction; provided, however, that the Developer
<br />shall not be responsible for routine maintenance. Developer's obligations hereunder shall remain
<br />in effect for ten (10) years following acceptance of the Improvements by the City Council.
<br />Developer acknowledges and agrees that Developer shall be responsible and liable for the design
<br />and construction of the Improvements and other work done pursuant to this Agreement, and City
<br />shall not be liable for any acts or omissions in approving, reviewing, checking, correcting or
<br />modifying any Improvement Plans or related specifications, or in inspecting, reviewing or
<br />approving any work or construction of Improvements. The Developer's improvement security
<br />shall not be required to secure the Developers obligations under this Subsection 17.3 beyond the
<br />one-year guarantee and warranty period. If, in any judicial proceedings involving statutory
<br />immunity under the Government Claims Act (Government Code Sections S 10, et seq.) asserted
<br />by the City, or its officers, agents or employees, is determined by a court of competent
<br />jurisdiction to be inapplicable or unavailable to immunize the City, or its officers, agents or
<br />employees, from potential liability for any alleged acts or omissions under this Subsection 17.3,
<br />then such rights or obligations of indemnity hereunder shall be governed by principles of
<br />comparative fault.
