6. Owner, its successors and assigns, hereby grant permission to the City, its authorized
agents and employees, to enter upon the Property and to inspect the permanent BMP(s) whenever

such costs. The actions described in this section are in addition to and not in lieu of any and all
legal remedies available to the City as a result of Owner's failure to maintain the permanent
BMP(s).
