B. Commercial general liability insurance will meet or exceed the requirements of
the most recent ISO-CGL Form. 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

and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty(30)days
prior written notice to CITY.
C. Professional liability coverage will be on an"occurrence basis" if such coverage
is available, or on a "claims made" basis if not available. When coverage is
provided on a"claims made basis,"CONSULTANT will continue to renew the
insurance for a period of three(3)years after this Agreement expires or is
terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy
that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover
CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or
omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time
this Agreement was in effect.
D. Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA
00 0106 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto).

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."
F. Should CONSULTANT,for any reason,fail to obtain and maintain the insurance
required by this Agreement, CITY may obtain such coverage at
CONSULTANT's expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from payments
due to CONSULTANT under this Agreement or terminate pursuant to Section 16.

approval to use any consultants while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval

• Blosser Road waterline and roadway repair
• New pump station construction
A one-mile, 24-inch pipeline extension was constructed
along Blosser Road to the Santa Maria River Levee,
