being met by the construction of a Class I bike trail along the eastern edge of San Francisquito
Creek, 8 -foot wide paseos on Cottage Circle Drive and Sunny Creek Lane, and a 10 -foot wide
paseo on Decoro Drive. The Quimby requirement has been fully satisfied by the dedication of

No. 44831, in accordance with the North Valencia II Development Agreement. Bridge and
Thoroughfare fees totaling $771,840.00 (per current Valencia District fees) shall be paid at
