consumer installations, shall be covered by easements or
rights -of -way if not located within platted or dedicated roads
or rights -of -way for utility purposes.
Developer hereby further agrees that the foregoing grants or
promises of grants include the necessary right of ingress and
egress to any part of the Property upon which the utility is
constructing or operating such facilities: That the foregoing
grants shall be for such period of time as the Utility or its
successors or assigns require such rights, privileges or
easements in the construction, ownership, maintenance, operation
or expansion of water facilities, that in the event Developer
and Utility agree that the Utility is to install any of its
water facilities in lands within the Property lying outside the
streets and easements areas described above, then Developer or
the Owners shall grant to the Utility, without cost or expense
to the Utility, the necessary easement or easements for such

diligence in ascertaining all easement locations; however,
should the Utility install any of its facilities outside a
dedicated easement area, the Utility will not be required to
move or relocate any facilities lying outside dedicated easement
area, so long as the facilities do not interfere with the then
or proposed use of the area in which the facilities have been
installed and so long as the Utility obtains a private easement
for such facility location, which Developer will give if same is
within his reasonable power to do so. The use of easements
granted by Developer other than Utility shall preclude the use
by other utilities of these easements, such as for cable
television, telephone, electric, or gas utilities; or as
