The OWNER, its successors and assigns, hereby grant permission to the TOWN, its authorized agents and employees, to enter upon the Property and to inspect the structural stormwater Management facilities whenever the TOWN deems necessary. The purpose of inspection is to follow-up on reported deficiencies and/or to respond to citizen complaints.

In addition, the TOWN may declare the responsible entity in default of this agreement and financial guarantee and use part or all of such guarantee funds to correct the deficiencies and may assume actual operation and maintenance. Default of this agreement does not release the responsible entity from liability/responsibility for the deficiencies, nor release the entity from this agreement. Likewise, default of this agreement does not prevent the TOWN from taking action against the responsible entity to recover the cost of such actions to correct the deficiencies.
