The parties to this Agreement recognize that the installation and maintenance of landscaping is an integral part of the PROPERTY OWNER's plan for development and/or use of the property and is necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of the VILLAGE's land use objectives, and that the permit would not have been approved by the VILLAGE without the assurance that this Agreement would be executed by the PROPERTY OWNER. 5.

For this purpose, the VILLAGE or its agent may enter upon the property and perform such work as it considers reasonably necessary and proper to restore, maintain, or replace the landscaping required by this Agreement. The VILLAGE may act either through its own employees or through an independent contractor. 11.

In addition to having a lien placed on the subject property, the VILLAGE may institute a legal action to collect the amount owed. The PROPERTY OWNER agrees to pay the VILLAGE a reasonable sum for attorney's fees and court costs. 13. If either party upon the execution of this Agreement or during the course of performance considers that it is necessary to have the PROPERTY OWNER post additional security to guarantee the performance of his obligations hereunder, the VILLAGE may require the PROPERTY OWNER to post additional security. The VILLAGE may require either a cash deposit or a surety bond guaranteeing performance in a form signed by sureties satisfactory to the VILLAGE. The condition of the security shall be that if the PROPERTY OWNER fails to perform any obligation under this Agreement, the VILLAGE may, act on behalf of the PROPERTY OWNER and use the proceeds of the cash bond, or in the case of a surety bond, require the securities to perform the obligations of this Agreement. 14.

The P-Right is 30 transferable if the real property for which it applies, is transferred to a new 31 property owner. A Class P license must be renewed annually. In the event no 32 Class P license is in effect at the renewal time, the property owner must renew 33 the P-Right, and the failure to so renew will cause the P-Right to become null and 34 void. 35 36 (4) A P-Right shall only be in effect at the real property for which it was initially 37 issued, however, it may be in effect for any location within the real property, or 38 any adjacent real property, owned by the property owner.
