FAMILIARITY WITH WORK.
A. By executing this Agreement, CONTRACTOR represents that CONTRACTOR
has
i. Thoroughly investigated and considered the scope of services to be
performed;
ii. Carefully considered how the services should be performed; and
iii. Understands the facilities, difficulties, and restrictions attending
performance of the services under this Agreement.
B. If services involve work upon any site, CONTRACTOR warrants that
CONTRACTOR has or will investigate the site and is or will be fully acquainted
with the conditions there existing, before commencing the services hereunder.
Should CONTRACTOR discover any latent or unknown conditions that may
materially affect the performance of the services, CONTRACTOR will
immediately inform CITY of such fact and will not proceed except at
CONTRACTOR's own risk until written instructions are received from CITY.
INSURANCE.
A. Before commencing performance under this Agreement, and at all other times this
Agreement is effective, CONTRACTOR will procure and maintain the following
types of insurance with coverage limits complying, at a minimum, with the limits
set forth below:
Type of Insurance
Commercial general liability:
Business automobile liability
Workers compensation
Limits (combined single)
$1,000,000
$1,000,000
Statutory requirement.
B. Commercial general liability insurance will meet or exceed the requirements of
Page 3 of 7
3 6
ISO -CGL Form No. CG 00 01 11 85 or 88. The amount of insurance set forth
above will be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal
injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Liability policies will be
endorsed to name City, its officials, and employees as "additional insureds" under
said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed "primary"
such that any other insurance that may be carried by City will be excess thereto.
Such insurance will be on an "occurrence," not a "claims made," basis and will
not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written
notice to City.
C. Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA
00 0106 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto).
D. CONTRACTOR will furnish to City duly authenticated Certificates of Insurance
evidencing maintenance of the insurance required under this Agreement,
endorsements as required herein, and such other evidence of insurance or copies
of policies as may be reasonably required by City from time to time. Insurance
must be placed with insurers with a current A.M. Best Company Rating
equivalent to at least a Rating of "A:VII." Certificate(s) must reflect that the
insurer will provide thirty (30) day notice of any cancellation of coverage.
CONTRACTOR will require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any
exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of
cancellation imposes no obligation, and to delete the word "endeavor" with regard
to any notice provisions.
E. Should CONTRACTOR, for any reason, fail to obtain and maintain the insurance
required by this Agreement, City may obtain such coverage at CONTRACTOR's
expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from payments due to
CONTRACTOR under this Agreement or terminate.
7. TIME FOR PERFORMANCE. CONTRACTOR will not perform any work under this
Agreement until:
A. CONTRACTOR furnishes proof of insurance as required under Section 6 of this
Agreement; and
B. CITY gives CONTRACTOR a written Notice to Proceed.
C. Should CONTRACTOR begin work in advance of receiving written authorization
to proceed, any such professional services are at CONTRACTOR's own risk.
8. TERMINATION.
A. Except as otherwise provided, CITY may terminate this Agreement at any time
with or without cause. Notice of termination will be in writing.
Page 4 of 7
361),�,�,,�
B. CONTRACTOR may terminate this Agreement upon providing written notice to
CITY at least thirty (30) days before the effective termination date.
C. Should the Agreement be terminated pursuant to this Section, CITY may procure
on its own terms services similar to those terminated.
D. By executing this document, CONTRACTOR waives any and all claims for
damages that might otherwise arise from CITY's termination under this Section.
9. INDEMNIFICATION.
A. CONTRACTOR indemnifies and holds CITY harmless from and against any
claim, action, damages, costs (including, without limitation, attorney's fees),
injuries, or liability, arising out of this Agreement, or its performance.
Should CITY be named in any suit, or should any claim be brought against it
by suit or otherwise, whether the same be groundless or not, arising out of
this Agreement, or its performance, CONTRACTOR will defend CITY (at
CITY's request and with counsel satisfactory to CITY) and will indemnify
CITY for any judgment rendered against it or any sums paid out in
settlement or otherwise.
B. For purposes of this section "CITY" includes CITY's officers, officials,
employees, agents, representatives, and certified volunteers.
C. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions will survive
termination of this Agreement.
10. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. CITY and CONTRACTOR agree that
CONTRACTOR will act as an independent contractor and will have control of all work and the
manner in which is it performed. CONTRACTOR will be free to contract for similar service to
be performed for other employers while under contract with CITY. CONTRACTOR is not an
agent or employee of CITY and is not entitled to participate in any pension plan, insurance,
bonus or similar benefits CITY provides for its employees. Any provision in this Agreement that
may appear to give CITY the right to direct CONTRACTOR as to the details of doing the work
or to exercise a measure of control over the work means that CONTRACTOR will follow the
direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.
