26 commonly known as 3340 Oakton Street, Skokie, Illinois.

27 2. At or near the time of execution of this Agreement, the VILLAGE granted an
28 Occupancy Permit, Business License, or Special Use Permit hereinafter collectively
29 referred to as “permit” pursuant to state statutes and local ordinances.

30 3. By the terms of the aforesaid permit, the PROPERTY OWNER is required to install
31 and maintain landscaping in accordance with the plan dated July 9, 2015 or as it
32 may be subsequently revised with the approval of the Village Manager, or designee,
33 and the Corporation Counsel.

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

40 5. The purpose of this Agreement is to assure:

41 (a) installation of the landscaping in accordance with the landscaping plan

1 6. The property, which is the subject matter of this Agreement, is legally described
2 above. The portions of the Subject Property which are to be landscaped and
3 maintained pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement are indicated on
4 the Landscape Plan attached hereto, marked Exhibit “1” and are hereby made a part
5 of this Agreement.

6 7. PROPERTY OWNER agrees that the installation and maintenance of the
7 landscaping which is required in accordance with the permit issued by the VILLAGE
8 and this Agreement will materially benefit the Subject Property. Such landscaping is
9 necessary in order for the PROPERTY OWNER to comply with the conditions of the
10 permit issued or granted by the VILLAGE for the PROPERTY OWNER’s requested
11 development or use of the property.

12 8. PROPERTY OWNER shall diligently maintain and care for the landscaping which is
13 installed and required by the permit and this Agreement, using generally accepted
14 methods of cultivation and watering. The PROPERTY OWNER shall maintain a
15 standard of care necessary to prevent the landscaping from deteriorating to the
16 extent that its value as landscaping is destroyed. If Exhibit “1”, attached hereto or
17 permit specifies maintenance standards or procedures, such procedures are hereby
18 adopted as part of this Agreement, and by such adoption, become enforcement
19 conditions of this Agreement.

20 9. Failure to maintain the landscaping as required by this Agreement shall be a
21 nuisance. In the event the PROPERTY OWNER fails to meet the standard of
22 maintenance necessary to keep the landscaping in a healthy condition as required
23 by this Agreement, the VILLAGE shall give written notice of the deficiency to the
24 PROPERTY OWNER who shall have 20 days to make the necessary correction or
25 replacement. If such correction or replacement is not made within the aforesaid 20-
26 day period, the VILLAGE may elect to abate the nuisance and take necessary action
27 to assure that the landscaping is replaced and/or maintained. In the event, the
28 VILLAGE so elects; the VILLAGE shall serve notice of its intent to enter the
29 premises for this purpose. The VILLAGE shall either personally serve the notice
30 upon the PROPERTY OWNER or mail a copy of it by certified mail to the
31 PROPERTY OWNER's last known address, or as shown on the tax rolls, at least 15
32 days in advance of the date when the VILLAGE or its agent intends to enter the
33 premises.

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

38 11. The VILLAGE shall be entitled to reimbursement for abating the nuisance in
39 restoring, maintaining or replacing the landscaping, provided that the VILLAGE
40 follows the procedures set forth in this Agreement. Costs shall include but shall not
41 be limited to actual costs incurred by the VILLAGE and administrative costs. The
42 VILLAGE shall make demand upon the PROPERTY OWNER for payment. If the
43 PROPERTY OWNER fails to pay the costs within 30 days of the date on which
44 demand is made, the VILLAGE may cause a lien to be placed on the Subject
45 Property. The VILLAGE may record a notice with the Recorder of Deeds for Cook
46 County stating that it has incurred expenses under the terms this Landscape

1 Agreement. The VILLAGE shall be entitled to collect interest at the statutory rate on
2 the amount owed.

3 12. In addition to having a lien placed on the Subject Property, the VILLAGE may
4 institute a legal action to collect the amount owed. The PROPERTY OWNER agrees
5 to pay the VILLAGE a reasonable sum for attorney's fees and court costs.

6 13. If either party upon the execution of this Agreement or during the course of
7 performance considers that it is necessary to have the PROPERTY OWNER post
8 additional security to guarantee the performance of his obligations hereunder, the
9 VILLAGE may require the PROPERTY OWNER to post additional security. The
10 VILLAGE may require either a cash deposit or a surety bond guaranteeing
11 performance in a form signed by sureties satisfactory to the VILLAGE. The
12 condition of the security shall be that if the PROPERTY OWNER fails to perform any
13 obligation under this Agreement, the VILLAGE may, act on behalf of the
14 PROPERTY OWNER and use the proceeds of the cash bond, or in the case of a
15 surety bond, require the securities to perform the obligations of this Agreement.

16 14. The PROPERTY OWNER hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
17 VILLAGE, its trustees, officials, employees and agents for any costs, claims, actions
18 or causes of action for personal injury, property damage or otherwise, including
19 reasonable attorneys fees, which may arise from the VILLAGE exercising any of its
20 rights or obligations and performance under this Agreement.
