buyer on the date on which the appraisal is made. Such appraisal shall estimate
the market value of the lands as at the date of approval of the tentative plan of
subdivision. The annually approved sector rates shall form the basis for
negotiations and if necessary, an independent appraisal may be obtained, as a
shared expense by the Developer and The City and such appraisal shall be
determinative.
17.03 (1) Where land, in excess of that which the City can compel the Developer to
dedicate as a condition of Subdivision Approval, is required by the City for
Municipal Purposes as defined in the Municipal Government Act and is
determined in the sole discretion of the Managing Director, Calgary Approvals
Coordination to require the availability of sanitary sewers, storm sewers, sewer

that which would have been determined for the dedicated reserves, in
accordance with the provisions of the Municipal Government Act, had the

Subdivision Approval.

(2) that shall not be released until the loam stockpile(s) is removed and the site upon
which the loam stockpile was located has been rehabilitated to the satisfaction of
the Director, Parks or the Managing Director, Calgary Approvals Coordination, as

respect of the final top lift asphalt referred to above.

gutters following the acknowledgement of the Final Acceptance Certificate, in
which case the City will assume the maintenance for the said sidewalks, curbs
and gutters following its acknowledgement of the Final Acceptance Certificate for
the same, it shall pay to the City Four Thousand Dollars ($4,000.00) per
