Rangeview Metropolitan District. The water and sewer service provider for the Lots is the Rangeview Metropolitan District (“Rangeview”) and Purchaser shall be required to purchase water and sewer taps for the Lots from Rangeview pursuant to the terms and provisions of a tap purchase agreement in a form substantially consistent with the one attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit F (the “Tap Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Tap Purchase Agreement, Rangeview will agree to sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser will agree to purchase from Rangeview, a water and sewer tap for each Lot in accordance with an agreed-upon purchase schedule, but in no event later than the issuance of a building permit for a Lot. The Tap Purchase Agreement shall be executed by Rangeview and Purchaser on or before the date of the First Closing. If Rangeview and Purchaser are unable to agree on a Tap Purchase Agreement before the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, the Initial Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller all information and materials received by Purchaser from Seller pertaining to the Property and any non-confidential and non-proprietary information otherwise obtained by Purchaser pertaining to the Property, and thereafter the parties shall have no further rights or obligations under this Contract except as otherwise provided in Section 25 below. The combined cost to purchase a water tap and sewer will be dependent on Lot size, house square footage, number of floors, driveway lanes, outdoor irrigated square footage, and xeriscape square footage. For example, based on Rangeview’s rates and charges as of the Effective Date as set forth in that certain fee schedule attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “Lot Development Fee Schedule”), a 5,500 square foot lot with a 2,400 square foot house 2 story 2 car garage with 1,500 square feet of grass would have a computed tap fee equating to a .9 SFE (1 SFE equal to .4 acre feet of water demand per year) or $24,488.10, and a sewer tap fee of $4,752.
