licenses, permits, and approvals as may be required by law for the performance of the Services
required by this Agreement.
1.4 Familiarity with Work. By executing this Agreement, Contractor warrants that it
has carefully considered how the Work should be performed and fully understands the facilities,
difficulties, and restrictions attending performance of the Work under this Agreement.
2. TIME FOR COMPLETION
The time for completion of the Services to be performed by Contractor is an essential
condition of this Agreement. Contractor shall prosecute regularly and diligently the work of this
Agreement according to the agreed upon schedule of performance set forth in Exhibit “A.” Neither
Party shall be accountable for delays in performance caused by any condition beyond the
reasonable control and without the fault or negligence of the non-performing Party. Delays shall
not entitle Contractor to any additional compensation regardless of the Party responsible for the
delay.
3. COMPENSATION OF CONTRACTOR
3.1 Compensation of Contractor. Contractor shall be compensated and reimbursed
for the services rendered under this Agreement in accordance with the schedule of fees set forth in
Exhibit “A”. The total amount of Compensation shall not exceed $ 1,615.00.

payment, Contractor shall submit to City an invoice for Services rendered prior to the date of the
invoice, no later than the first working day of such month, in the form approved by City’s finance
director. Payments shall be based on the schedule of fees set forth in Exhibit “A” for authorized
services performed. City shall pay Contractor for all expenses stated in the invoice that are

4. PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE
4.1 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence in the performance of this Agreement.
4.2 Schedule of Performance. All Services rendered under this Agreement shall be
performed under the agreed upon schedule of performance set forth in Exhibit “A.” Any time
period extension must be approved in writing by the Contract Officer.
4.3 Force Majeure. The time for performance of Services to be rendered under this
Agreement may be extended because of any delays due to a Force Majeure Event, if Contractor
notifies the Contract Officer within ten (10) days of the commencement of the Force Majeure
Event. A Force Majeure Event shall mean an event that materially affects the Contractor’s
performance and is one or more of the following: (1) Acts of God or other natural disasters
occurring at the project site; (2) terrorism or other acts of a public enemy; (3) orders of
governmental authorities (including, without limitation, unreasonable and unforeseeable delay in
the issuance of permits or approvals by governmental authorities that are required for the Work);
and (4) pandemics, epidemics or quarantine restrictions. For purposes of this section, “orders of
governmental authorities,” includes ordinances, emergency proclamations and orders, rules to
protect the public health, welfare and safety, and other actions of the City in its capacity as a
municipal authority. After Contractor notification, the Contract Officer shall investigate the facts
and the extent of any necessary delay and extend the time for performing the Services for the
period of the enforced delay when and if, in the Contract Officer’s judgment, such delay is
justified. The Contract Officer’s determination shall be final and conclusive upon the Parties to
this Agreement. The Contractor will not receive an adjustment to the contract price or any other
compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City may still terminate this Agreement in
accordance with the termination provisions of this Agreement.
4.4 Term. Unless earlier terminated in accordance with Section 4.5 of this Agreement,
this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect for a period one month, commencing on
February 1, 2024, and ending on March 2, 2024, unless extended by mutual written agreement of
the Parties.
4.5 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term. City may terminate this Agreement
at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days written notice to Contractor. Where
termination is due to the fault of Contractor and constitutes an immediate danger to health, safety,
and general welfare, the period of notice shall be such shorter time as may be determined by the
City. Upon receipt of the notice of termination, Contractor shall immediately cease all Services
except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Contractor shall be entitled
to compensation for all Services rendered prior to receipt of the notice of termination and for any
Services authorized by the Contract Officer after such notice. City shall not be liable for any costs
other than the charges or portions thereof which are specified herein. Contractor shall not be
entitled to payment for unperformed Services and shall not be entitled to damages or compensation
for termination of Work. If the termination is for cause, the City shall have the right to take
whatever steps it deems necessary to correct Contractor's deficiencies and charge the cost thereof
to Contractor, who shall be liable for the full cost of the City's corrective action. Contractor may
not terminate this Agreement except for cause, upon thirty (30) days written notice to City.

5.1 Representative of Contractor. The following principal of Contractor is
designated as being the principal and representative of Contractor authorized to act and make all
decisions in its behalf with respect to the specified Services: John Monahan, Sales Executive. It
is expressly understood that the experience, knowledge, education, capability, and reputation of
the foregoing principal is a substantial inducement for City to enter into this Agreement.
Therefore, the foregoing principal shall be responsible during the term of this Agreement for
directing all activities of Contractor and devoting sufficient time to personally supervise the
Services under this Agreement. The foregoing principal may not be changed by Contractor
without prior written approval of the Contract Officer.

designee ("Contract Officer"). Contractor shall be responsible for keeping the Contract Officer
fully informed of the progress of the performance of the Services. Contractor shall refer any
decisions that must be made by City to the Contract Officer. Unless otherwise specified, any
approval of City shall mean the approval of the Contract Officer.
5.3 Prohibition Against Subcontracting or Assignment. The experience,
knowledge, education, capability, and reputation of Contractor, its principals and employees, were
a substantial inducement for City to enter into this Agreement. Contractor shall not contract with
any other individual or entity to perform any Services required under this Agreement without the
City's express written approval. In addition, neither this Agreement nor any interest may be
assigned or transferred, voluntarily or by operation of law, without the prior written approval of
City. Subcontracts, if any, shall contain a provision making them subject to all provisions
stipulated in this Agreement including without limitation the insurance and indemnification
requirements. If Contractor is permitted to subcontract any part of this Agreement by City,
Contractor shall be responsible to City for the acts and omissions of its subcontractor(s) in the

control over the manner, mode, or means by which Contractor, its agents or employees, perform
the Services required, except as otherwise specified. Contractor shall perform all required Services

advice. Contractor shall not at any time or in any manner represent that it or any of its agents or
employees are agents or employees of City. Contractor shall pay all wages, salaries, and other
amounts due personnel in connection with their performance under this Agreement and as required
by law. Contractor shall be responsible for all reports and obligations respecting such personnel,

5.6 California Labor Code Requirements.
A. Contractor is aware of the requirements of California Labor Code Sections
1720 et seq. and 1770 et seq., which require the payment of prevailing wage rates and the
performance of other requirements on certain “public works” and “maintenance” projects
(“Prevailing Wage Laws”). If the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “public
works” or “maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, and if the total
compensation is $15,000 or more for maintenance or $25,000 or more for construction, alteration,
demolition, installation, or repair, Contractor agrees to fully comply with such Prevailing Wage
Laws. Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold the City, its officials, officers, employees and
agents free and harmless from any claims, liabilities, costs, penalties or interest arising out of any
failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws. It shall be mandatory upon
the Contractor and all subcontractors to comply with all California Labor Code provisions, which
include but are not limited to prevailing wages (Labor Code Sections 1771, 1774 and 1775),
employment of apprentices (Labor Code Section 1777.5), certified payroll records (Labor Code
Sections 1771.4 and 1776), hours of labor (Labor Code Sections 1813 and 1815) and debarment
of contractors and subcontractors (Labor Code Section 1777.1).
B. If the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “public works”
or “maintenance” project and if the total compensation is $15,000 or more for maintenance or
$25,000 or more for construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair, then pursuant to
Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, the Contractor and all subcontractors performing such
Services must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations. Contractor shall maintain
registration for the duration of the Project and require the same of any subcontractors, as
applicable. This Agreement may also be subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by
the Department of Industrial Relations. It shall be Contractor’s sole responsibility to comply with
all applicable registration and labor compliance requirements.
6. INSURANCE
Contractor shall procure and maintain, at its sole cost and expense, policies of insurance as
set forth in the attached Exhibit "B", incorporated herein by reference.
7. INDEMNIFICATION.
7.1 Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall
defend (at Contractor’s sole cost and expense), indemnify, protect, and hold harmless City, its
elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers (collectively the “Indemnified
Parties”), from and against any and all liabilities, actions, suits, claims, demands, losses, costs,
judgments, arbitration awards, settlements, damages, demands, orders, penalties, and expenses
including legal costs and attorney fees (collectively “Claims”), including but not limited to Claims
DocuSign Envelope ID: D4700C03-39BA-4F78-A27F-821BE7E8F879
Revised 12.21.23 Page 6 of 21
arising from injuries to or death of persons (Contractor’s employees included), for damage to
property, including property owned by City, for any violation of any federal, state, or local law or
ordinance or in any manner arising out of, pertaining to, or incident to any acts, errors or omissions,
or willful misconduct committed by Contractor, its officers, employees, representatives, and
agents, that arise out of or relate to Contractor’s performance of Services or this Agreement. This
indemnification clause excludes Claims arising from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of
the Indemnified Parties. Under no circumstances shall the insurance requirements and limits set
forth in this Agreement be construed to limit Contractor’s indemnification obligation or other
liability under this Agreement. Contractor’s indemnification obligation shall survive the
expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement until all actions against the Indemnified Parties
for such matters indemnified are fully and finally barred by the applicable statute of limitations or,
if an action is timely filed, until such action is final.
7.2 Design Professional Services Indemnification and Reimbursement. If
Contractor’s obligation to defend, indemnify, and/or hold harmless arises out of Contractor’s
performance as a “design professional” (as that term is defined under Civil Code section 2782.8),
then, and only to the extent required by Civil Code section 2782.8, which is fully incorporated
herein, Contractor’s indemnification obligation shall be limited to the extent which the Claims
arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the
Contractor in the performance of the Services or this Agreement, and, upon Contractor obtaining
a final adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction, Contractor’s liability for such claim,
including the cost to defend, shall not exceed the Contractor’s proportionate percentage of fault.
8. RECORDS AND REPORTS
8.1 Reports. Contractor shall periodically prepare and submit to the Contract Officer
reports concerning the performance of the Services required by this Agreement, or as the Contract
Officer shall require.
8.2 Records. Contractor shall keep complete, accurate, and detailed accounts of all
time, costs, expenses, and expenditures pertaining in any way to this Agreement. Contractor shall
keep such books and records as shall be necessary to properly perform the Services required by
this Agreement and enable the Contract Officer to evaluate the performance of such Services. The
Contract Officer shall have full and free access to such books and records at all reasonable times,
including the right to inspect, copy, audit, and make records and transcripts from such records.
8.3 Ownership of Documents. All drawings, specifications, reports, records,
documents, and other materials prepared by Contractor in the performance of this Agreement shall
be the property of City. Contractor shall deliver all above-referenced documents to City upon
request of the Contract Officer or upon the termination of this Agreement. Contractor shall have
no claim for further employment or additional compensation as a result of the exercise by City of
its full rights or ownership of the documents and materials. Contractor may retain copies of such
documents for Contractor's own use. Contractor shall have an unrestricted right to use the concepts
embodied in such documents.

8.4 Release of Documents. All drawings, specifications, reports, records, documents,
and other materials prepared by Contractor in the performance of Services under this Agreement
shall not be released publicly without the prior written approval of the Contract Officer.
8.5 Audit and Inspection of Records. After receipt of reasonable notice and during
the regular business hours of City, Contractor shall provide City, or other agents of City, such
access to Contractor’s books, records, payroll documents, and facilities as City deems necessary
to examine, copy, audit, and inspect all accounting books, records, work data, documents, and
activities directly related to Contractor’s performance under this Agreement. Contractor shall
maintain such books, records, data, and documents in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and shall clearly identify and make such items readily accessible to such
parties during the term of this Agreement and for a period of three (3) years from the date of final
payment by City hereunder.
9. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT
9.1 California Law. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted both as to
validity and to performance of the parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California.
Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim, or matter arising out of or in relation to this
Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Riverside, State of California,
or any other appropriate court in such county, and Contractor covenants and agrees to submit to
the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action.
9.2 Interpretation. This Agreement shall be construed as a whole according to its fair
language and common meaning to achieve the objectives and purposes of the Parties. The terms
of this Agreement are contractual and the result of negotiation between the Parties. Accordingly,
any rule of construction of contracts (including, without limitation, California Civil Code Section
1654) that ambiguities are to be construed against the drafting party, shall not be employed in the
interpretation of this Agreement. The caption headings of the various sections and paragraphs of
this Agreement are for convenience and identification purposes only and shall not be deemed to
limit, expand, or define the contents of the respective sections or paragraphs.
9.3 Waiver. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of a non-
defaulting Party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. No
consent or approval of City shall be deemed to waive or render unnecessary City’s consent to or
approval of any subsequent act of Contractor. Any waiver by either Party of any default must be
in writing. No such waiver shall be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other
provision of this Agreement.
9.4 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative. Except with respect to rights and remedies
expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are
cumulative. The exercise by either Party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not
preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the
same default or any other default by the other Party.
9.5 Legal Action. In addition to any other rights or remedies, either Party may take
legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct, or remedy any default, to recover damages for
DocuSign Envelope ID: D4700C03-39BA-4F78-A27F-821BE7E8F879
Revised 12.21.23 Page 8 of 21
any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain injunctive relief, a
declaratory judgment, or any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement.
9.6 Attorney Fees. In the event any dispute between the Parties with respect to this
Agreement results in litigation or any non-judicial proceeding, the prevailing Party shall be
entitled, in addition to such other relief as may be granted, to recover from the non-prevailing Party
all reasonable costs and expenses. These include but are not limited to reasonable attorney fees,
expert contractor fees, court costs and all fees, costs, and expenses incurred in any appeal or in
collection of any judgment entered in such proceeding.
10. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION
10.1 Non-Liability of City Officers and Employees. No officer or employee of City
shall be personally liable to the Contractor, or any successor-in-interest, in the event of any default
or breach by City or for any amount which may become due to the Contractor or its successor, or
for breach of any obligation of the terms of this Agreement.
10.2 Conflict of Interest. Contractor acknowledges that no officer or employee of the
City has or shall have any direct or indirect financial interest in this Agreement, nor shall
Contractor enter into any agreement of any kind with any such officer or employee during the term
of this Agreement and for one (1) year thereafter. Contractor warrants that Contractor has not
paid or given, and will not pay or give, any third party any money or other consideration in
exchange for obtaining this Agreement.
10.3 Covenant Against Discrimination. In connection with its performance under this
Agreement, Contractor shall not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment

origin (i.e., place of origin, immigration status, cultural or linguistic characteristics, or ethnicity),
sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, physical or mental disability, or medical
condition (each a “prohibited basis”). Contractor shall ensure that applicants are employed, and
that employees are treated during their employment, without regard to any prohibited basis. As a
condition precedent to City’s lawful capacity to enter this Agreement, and in executing this
Agreement, Contractor certifies that its actions and omissions hereunder shall not incorporate any
discrimination arising from or related to any prohibited basis in any Contractor activity, including
but not limited to the following: employment, upgrading, demotion or transfer; recruitment or
recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and
selection for training, including apprenticeship; and further, that Contractor is in full compliance

workers’ compensation laws. Such insurance shall be kept in full force and effect during the term
of this Agreement, including any extensions. Such insurance shall not be cancelable without thirty
(30) days advance written notice to City of any proposed cancellation. Certificates of insurance
evidencing the foregoing and designating the City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents,
and volunteers as additional named insureds by original endorsement shall be delivered to and
approved by City prior to commencement of services. The procuring of such insurance and the
delivery of policies, certificates, and endorsements evidencing the same shall not be construed as
a limitation of Contractor’s obligation to indemnify City, its elected officials, officers, agents,
employees, and volunteers.
2. Minimum Scope of Insurance. The minimum amount of insurance required under
this Agreement shall be as follows:
1. Comprehensive general liability and personal injury with limits of at least

3. Primary Insurance. For any claims related to this Agreement, Contractor’s
insurance coverage shall be primary with respect to the City and its respective elected officials,
officers, employees, agents, and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by City

contribution it may have against City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and
volunteers.
4. Errors and Omissions Coverage. If Errors & Omissions Insurance is required,
and if Contractor provides claims made professional liability insurance, Contractor shall also agree
in writing either (1) to purchase tail insurance in the amount required by this Agreement to cover
claims made within three years of the completion of Contractor’s services under this Agreement,
or (2) to maintain professional liability insurance coverage with the same carrier in the amount
required by this Agreement for at least three years after completion of Contractor’s services under
this Agreement. Contractor shall also be required to provide evidence to City of the purchase of
the required tail insurance or continuation of the professional liability policy.
5. Sufficiency of Insurers. Insurance required in this Agreement shall be provided
by authorized insurers in good standing with the State of California. Coverage shall be provided
by insurers admitted in the State of California with an A.M. Best’s Key Rating of B++, Class VII,
or better, unless otherwise acceptable to the City.
6. Verification of Coverage. Contractor shall furnish City with both certificates of
insurance and endorsements, including additional insured endorsements, affecting all of the
coverages required by this Agreement. The certificates and endorsements are to be signed by a
person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. All proof of insurance is to be
received and approved by the City before work commences. City reserves the right to require
Contractor’s insurers to provide complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies at any
time. Additional insured endorsements are not required for Errors and Omissions and Workers’
Compensation policies.
Verification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or
Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Palm Springs or (2) an acceptable Certificate of
Liability Insurance Coverage with an approved Additional Insured Endorsement with the
following endorsements stated on the certificate:
A. "The City of Palm Springs, its officials, employees, and agents are named as an
additional insured…” ("as respects City of Palm Springs Contract No.___" or "for any and all
work performed with the City" may be included in this statement).
B. "This insurance is primary and non-contributory over any insurance or self-
insurance the City may have..." ("as respects City of Palm Springs Contract No.___" or "for any
and all work performed with the City" may be included in this statement).
C. "Should any of the above-described policies be canceled before the expiration date
thereof, the issuing company will mail 30 days written notice to the Certificate Holder named."
Language such as, “endeavor to” mail and "but failure to mail such notice shall impose no
obligation or liability of any kind upon the company, its agents or representative" is not acceptable
and must be crossed out.

D. Both the Workers’ Compensation and Employers' Liability policies shall contain
the insurer's waiver of subrogation in favor of City, its elected officials, officers, employees,
agents, and volunteers.
In addition to the endorsements listed above, the City of Palm Springs shall be named the
certificate holder on the policies.
All certificates of insurance and endorsements are to be received and approved by the City before
work commences. All certificates of insurance must be authorized by a person with authority to
bind coverage, whether that is the authorized agent/broker or insurance underwriter. Failure to
obtain the required documents prior to the commencement of work shall not waive the Contractor’s
obligation to provide them.
7. Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductibles or self-insured
retentions must be declared to and approved by the City prior to commencing any work or services
under this Agreement. At the option of the City, either (1) the insurer shall reduce or eliminate
such deductibles or self-insured retentions with respect to the City, its elected officials, officers,
employees, agents, and volunteers; or (2) Contractor shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment
of losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses. Certificates of
Insurance must include evidence of the amount of any deductible or self-insured retention under
the policy. Contractor guarantees payment of all deductibles and self-insured retentions.
8. Severability of Interests (Separation of Insureds). This insurance applies
separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought except with respect to
the limits of the insurer’s liability.
