DECLARATION OF COVENANT
Private Stormwater Facility
WHEREAS, the undersigned Declarant has installed a stormwater facility that uses lawn
and other landscaped features to manage the stormwater runoff from said property known as a
"low impact development best management practices (LID BMP)" in lieu of other required more
conventional stormwater systems; and
WHEREAS, the City of Edmonds has allowed installation of the LID BMP, subject to the
execution and recording of this Declaration of Covenant; NOW, THEREFORE,
THE UNDERSIGNED DECLARANT, being the owner of the real property ("the
Property") located at the following address: it 2—
in the City of
Edmonds, Washington, and legally described on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated
herein by this reference as if set forth in full, hereby covenants and agrees, on behalf of
himself/herself/itself and his/her/its successors and assigns, as follows:
Declarant warrants that he/she is the owner of the property described on Exhibit A and
has the authority to impose this covenant on the property and bind all future owners,
successors, and assigns of Declarant. The Declarant, future owners, successors, and
assigns of the Declarant shall be referred to collectively as "Owners."
2. The Owners of the property described on Exhibit A agree that the property contains a
stormwater management facility called a "LID BMP," which was installed to mitigate the
stormwater quantity and quality impacts of some or all of the impervious or non-native
pervious surfaces on the property. "Low impact development" means development
conducted in a way that seeks to minimize or completely prevent alterations to the natural
hydrology of the site. Low impact development includes site planning and design to
reduce alterations of natural soil and vegetation cover, minimize impervious surfaces, and
specific practices that help to replicate natural hydrology such as permeable pavements,
green roofs, soil amendments, bioretention systems, and dispersion of runoff.
3. The Owners of the property described on Exhibit A shall maintain the size, placement,
and design of the LID BMP as depicted on the approved site plan, Exhibit B, and design
details shall be maintained and may not be changed without written approval either from
the Engineering Division of the City of Edmonds or through a future development permit
from the City of Edmonds. Plant materials may be changed to suit individual preferences,
but chemical fertilizers and pesticides must not be used. Mulch may be added and
additional compost should be worked into the soil over time. All costs of such
maintenance and repair shall be the sole responsibility of the Owners.
4. The Owners of the property described on Exhibit A shall inspect LID BMPs annually for
physical defects. After major storm events, the system shall also be checked to ensure
that the overflow system is working properly. If erosion channels or bare spots are
evident, they shall be stabilized with soil, plant material, mulch, or landscape rock. A
supplemental watering program may be needed the first year to ensure the long-term
survival of any vegetated areas. The Owners also shall maintain all vegetation and soils
that are part of the LID BMP so it functions as designed on a year-round basis.
5. The City of Edmonds is hereby granted by the Owners the right, but not the obligation, to
enter upon the property described on Exhibit A at all reasonable times for the purpose of
inspecting the private stormwater LID BMP facility. If, as the result of any such
inspection the City of Edmonds determines that the LID BMP is in disrepair, requires
maintenance or repair, or is otherwise not functioning as provided in the BMP site plan,
the City Engineer or his designee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to order the
Owners of the property described on Exhibit A to maintain or repair the same.
6. If the City of Edmonds determines that the LID BMP requires maintenance or repair
pursuant to Section 5, the City of Edmonds shall provide notice to the Owners of the
deadline within which such maintenance or repair must be completed. Said notice may
further advise that, should the violator fail to perform required maintenance or make
repairs within the established deadline, the work may be done by the city or a contractor
designated by the City Engineer and the expense thereof shall be charged to the Owners.
The City's officers, agents, employees, and contractors shall have the right, which is
hereby granted by the Owners, to enter upon the property described on Exhibit A in order
to perform such work. The Owners shall bear the cost of all work performed.
7. The Owners shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the City of Edmonds, its officers,
officials, employees and agents from any and all claims, demands, suits, penalties, losses,
damages, judgments, attorneys' fees and/or costs of any kind whatsoever, arising out of
or in any way resulting from the approval of the LID BMP, the installation and presence
of the LID BMP, and the acts or omissions of the Owners, their officers, employees,
contractors, and agents relating to the construction, operation and maintenance of the LID
BMPs on the property, except for the City's intentional and willful tortious acts, and
waive and release the City of Edmonds from any and all claims for damages and
injunctive relief which the Owners may themselves have now or in the future, by reason
of the construction, maintenance and operation of said LID BMPs.
8. This covenant shall run with the land and be binding upon the Declarant, as the owner of
the property described on Exhibit A, and on Declarant's successors and assigns as to such
property.
