ASSESSOR’S PARCEL NUMBER {APN 000-000-000-000}

This real property is hereinafter referred to as the “Subject Property.” The Subject Property is located within the jurisdiction of the Water Management District. {PROPERTY OWNER NAME(S)}, (hereinafter referred to as Owner(s), are record owner(s) of the Subject Property.

1. TEMPORARY PERMIT

Owner(s) and Water Management District agree that the maximum permitted temporary water use at the Subject Property between {ISSUE DATE OF TEMPORARY PERMIT} and {EXPIRATION DATE OF TEMPORARY PERMIT} is limited to supply the potable water requirements for the following uses:

· {Square-footage and type of use (per Rule 24, Table II)}

· Reasonable outdoor water use as needed and as allowed by District rules.

All water use permitted by this temporary expansion/extension permit (Water Permit #{INSERT PERMIT NUMBER}) is time limited. The water uses allowed by this temporary expansion/extension permit are approved pursuant to District Rule 23 (B) based upon a determination of near‑term water need. This temporary expansion/extension permit shall be subject to the following conditions:

(1) The temporary expansion/extension permit shall not confer a property interest upon the Owner(s) to obtain or use water after expiration and/or revocation of the permit, and

(2) The temporary expansion/extension permit is subject to revocation during its term without cause, without hearing, upon thirty (30) days' notice, and

(3) The temporary expansion/extension permit shall terminate on the date specified earlier in this document, and

(4) Any unauthorized use of water through the connection or water meter installed or used pursuant to the temporary permit following expiration and/or revocation of that permit shall be unlawful.

(5) The Owner(s) acknowledges that the temporary expansion/extension permit does not confer a right to obtain or use water upon expiration and/or revocation of the temporary permit.

(6) The Owner(s) consents to the physical removal of the connection and/or water meter or removal of the useable square-footage associated with the temporary use upon the expiration and/or revocation of the temporary permit.

(7) The terms and conditions of the temporary expansion/extension permit shall operate as a covenant running with the land.

2. ALLOWED WATER USES FOLLOWING EXPIRATION OF TEMPORARY PERMIT

Owner(s) and Water Management District further agree that the maximum permitted water use at the Subject Property following expiration of this temporary expansion/extension permit is limited to supply the potable water requirements for the following uses:

· {Square-footage and type of use (per Rule 24, Table II)}

· Reasonable outdoor water use as needed and as allowed by District rules

The Owner(s) agrees that any and all structures and/or improvements allowed by the temporary expansion/extension permit beyond those listed immediately above shall be removed from the Subject Property no later than {EXPIRATION DATE OF TEMPORARY PERMIT}.

No water uses other than those listed above are approved or authorized for use on the Subject Property following expiration of the temporary expansion/extension permit.

3. CONDITIONS OF TEMPORARY EXPANSION/EXTENSION PERMIT

Owner(s) acknowledges that the conditions regarding the temporary expansion/extension permit referenced above have been voluntarily accepted as a condition of Water Permit No. {INSERT PERMIT NO.}. Owner(s) elects and irrevocably covenants with the Water Management District to abide by the conditions of this Notice and Deed Restriction to enable issuance of this temporary expansion/extension permit. But for the limitations and notices set forth herein, issuance of this water permit would otherwise be withheld and found to be inconsistent with the Water Management District Rules and Regulations.

NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that this agreement is binding and has been voluntarily entered into by Owner(s), and each of them, and constitutes a mandatory condition precedent to receipt of regulatory approval from the Water Management District relating to the Subject Property. This agreement attaches to the land and shall bind any successor or assignee of Owner(s).

NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that present and/or future use of water at the Subject Property site is restricted by Water Management District Rules and Regulations to the water use requirements referenced above. Any intensification of water use on the Subject Property, as defined by Water Management District Rule 11, will require prior written authorization and permit from the Water Management District. Approval may be withheld by the Water Management District, in accord with then applicable provisions of law. Present or future allocations of water may not be available to grant any permit to intensify water use at this site. If any request to intensify water use on Subject Property is approved, connection charges and other administrative fees may be required as a condition of approval.

NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that in the event intensification of water use on the Subject Property occurs without such an authorizing permit, any and all water use on this site may thereafter be revoked in accord with Water Management District Rules, which state, “Intensification of Water Use without a permit shall provide cause for revocation by the District of all water use by any person on that Site.” Such revocation could cause the irrevocable extinction of any right or entitlement to water use, water use capacity, or water credit for the Subject Property.

NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that intensification of water use on Subject Property that occurs without the advance written approval of the Water Management District is a violation of Water Management District Rules and may result in a monetary penalty for each offense as allowed by Water Management District Rules. Each separate day, or portion thereof, during which any violation occurs or continues without a good faith effort by the responsible party to correct the violation shall be deemed to constitute a separate offense. All water users within the jurisdiction of the Water Management District are subject to the Water Management District Rules, including Rules 11, 23, and 148.

The Owner(s) and Water Management District each intend that this Notice and Deed Restriction act as a deed restriction upon the Subject Property, and that it shall be irrevocable under its terms. This document shall be enforceable by the Water Management District or any public entity that is a successor to the Water Management District.

This Notice and Deed Restriction is placed upon the Subject Property. Any transfer of this property, or an interest therein, is subject to this deed restriction.

If any provision of this Notice and Deed Restriction is held to be invalid, or for any reason becomes unenforceable, no other provision shall thereby be affected or impaired.

The undersigned Owner(s) agrees with and accepts all terms of this document stated above, and requests and consents to recordation of this Notice and Deed Restriction Regarding Limitation on use of Water on a Property. The Owner(s) further agrees to notify any present and future tenant of the Subject Property of the terms and conditions of this document.

OWNER(S) agrees to recordation of this Notice and Deed Restriction in the Recorder’s Office for the County of Monterey. Owner(s) further unconditionally accepts the terms and conditions stated above. (Owners’ signatures must be notarized)
