Gder Road Marana, Adzona 85653 Pima County, Adzona AGREEMENT To: Cortaro-Marana Irrigation Distdct As the master developer of the Gladden Farms community and on behalf of its owner, Gladden Forest LLC, ("Gladden Farms"), I am writing to formalize our agreed upon position regarding Gladden Farms, the Cortaro-Marana Irrigation District (CMID), and the delivery of CMID irrigation water. The legal description of Gladden Farms property intended to be affected by this agreement is attached and made a part hereof. Gladden Farms is committed to a long-term, positive, and mutually beneficial relationship between Gladden Farms and CMID and the Town of Marana. Please be assured that all property owners have been and will be fully informed that they are acquiring property within the CMID's boundaries, and within the Town, that the property tax statements include a tax component levied by the CMID, that they will receive potable water from the Town, but will not be supplied with gravity-fed irrigation water. Based on the non-potable secondary water system being installed by our agents throughout Gladden Farms to each lot and to the high-elevation comer of each quarter section, original ownership of which system is being transferred to the Town, there will be available for transportation to Cortaro-Marana Irrigation District a supply of pressurized non potable irrigation water eventually available to be delivered to each property owner and throughout the landscaped common areas. On behalf of itself, its successors and 'assigns, Gladden Forest LLC agrees it will along with the District, request the Town to grant, and Town does grant at no expense to CMID such irrevocable right of use of and access to the non-potable secondary residential water system facilities being installed and easements as necessary to be in compliance with the bylaws of CMID. *' We understand that this system will not only provide a useable commodity for each property tax-paying landowner, but will also serve to reduce the potable water demand throughout the community. The CMID and the Town of Marana should be complimented for arriving at a solution that provides multiple benefits at a reasonable cost, while still conforming to the requirements and goals of each organization. * The Town's grant of this irrevocable right of use and access to the Town's non-potable secondary residential water system facilities is based on and subject to the assumption that the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) will allow CMID to deliver non-potable water through these Town-owned facilities without adversely affecting the dghts or obligations of either the Town or CMID, absent which ADVVR allowance the Town and/or Gladden Forrest LLC will, without cost to CMID, otherwise make available easements and/or rights-of-way sufficient to allow CMID to comply with its Articles, Bylaws, rules and regulations in the delivery of non-potable water.
