RE: Well Agreement
Dear Mr. Kidwell:
The City of Pasco acquired from the Northwest Commons subdivision, as part of the preliminary plat
requirements, the water rights and well in 2006. The preliminary plat requirements provided that the
owner/developer could negotiate a separate agreement with the City if they wish to continue to utilize
water from the well for irrigation of agricultural lands.
The City understands your desire to use the well to irrigate the agricultural lands you presently lease at
the subdivision site. The City will permit your use of the well in strict accord with the following
stipulations. In exchange for the city's permission to use the well for the 2013 growing season, you
shall:
1. pay for seasonal use $1,330 (which includes $151.34 applicable state leasehold taxes) by April
30, 2013;
2. be responsible for all electrical costs associated with farm irrigation;
3. be responsible (to the city's satisfaction) for all damage, maintenance and repair costs associated
with the use of the well during the growing season;
4. adhere to the City's operation instructions;
5. provide evidence of liability insurance of at least $100,000 and naming the City as an additional
insured;
6. indemnify and hold the City harmless from any claims whatsoever associated with use of the
well;
7. assure that use of water shall be restricted to those lands within the subdivision of Northwest
Commons;
8. no chemicals shall be sprayed in any form on the pump and control systems;
9. no chemicals are to be used in or with the irrigation system;
10. maintain and test RP;
11. if chemical is used it must be preapproved by the City.
Your signature hereunder will reflect your agreement with the foregoing provisions.
Sincerely,
Ahmad Qayoumi
