In addition, Owner shall be required to maintain the Project in such a manner as to avoid the reasonable determination of a duly authorized official of the City that a public nuisance has been created by the absence of adequate maintenance such as to be detrimental to the public health, safety or general welfare or that such a condition of deterioration or disrepair causes appreciable harm or is materially detrimental to property or improvements within one thousand (1,000) feet of such portion of the Site. The foregoing notwithstanding, Owner shall not be obligated to maintain any street or sidewalk areas, or landscaping therein, which are to be maintained by the City pursuant to a Project Financing Agreement executed by the City(as amended). 2.

Thereafter, either City or its employees, contractors, or agents, may cure Owner's default by entering upon the Site and performing the necessary landscaping and/or maintenance in accordance with Section 3.1.1 above. The City shall give Owner, its representative, or the residential manager reasonable notice of the time and manner of entry, and entry shall only be at such times and in such manner as is reasonably necessary to carry out this Agreement. Owner shall pay such costs as are reasonably incurred by City for such maintenance, including attorneys' fees and costs. 4. Lien. If any costs incurred by City under Section 3 above are not reimbursed within thirty (30) days after Owner's receipt of City's written request for reimbursement, the same shall be deemed delinquent, and the amount thereof shall bear interest thereafter at a rate of the lower of ten percent (10%) per annum or the legal maximum until paid.
