Rockfall Mitigation. A rockfall study of the Property by AGEC, summarized in a letter from AGEC dated March 10, 2014 (“Rockfall Study”), identified certain areas on the western portion of the Property as being hazardous for rockfall (the “Rockfall Hazard Zone”). Applicant must either: (i) not build any structures within the Rockfall Hazard Zone; or (ii) adopt tested and proven rockfall mitigation methods recommended by AGEC or another consultant approved by the City (both, a “Rockfall Consultant”), before any building permits will be issued by the City for structures situated within any portion of the Rockfall Hazard Zone. Any such mitigation technology and materials must be determined by the Rockfall Consultant to be functional for at least twenty (20) years. Owner must also satisfy the City that any company used to install such mitigation measures can meet recognized technical standards for such mitigation work. Owner, or a homeowner’s association formed to maintain the common areas or open space of the Project, shall be responsible for the long-term inspection and maintenance of the rockfall mitigation facilities, including the performance of all inspections and maintenance as recommended by the installation company. Owner must disclose such mitigation measures to anyone purchasing property within the Rockfall Hazard Zone, as recommended by the State of Utah Geological Service. Owner must mitigate the adverse aesthetic impacts from any rockfall mitigation facilities by exercising commercially reasonable efforts to blend the color of the mitigation facilities with the surrounding environment, and must exercise commercially reasonable efforts to use screening, by the placement of buildings and landscaping, to reduce the visibility of the materials and facilities used for rockfall mitigation.
