CONTRACT SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH CROSSROADS SOFTWARE FOR THE
UPGRADE AND EXPANSION OF TRAFFIC COLLISION SOFTWARE PROGRAM
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve a Contract Services Agreement with Crossroads
Software, in the amount of$17,569.50, for the upgrade and expansion of traffic
collision software program, City Project No. 2000-03.
BACKGROUND
Over five years ago, the Engineering Department implemented a collision database
software program that assists in collision analysis. The program was funded by
State of California, Business, Transportation and Housing Agency, Office of Traffic
Safety (OTS), designed and implemented by Crossroads Software. Since it's
implementation, the City has incorporated several square miles that need to be
added to the database. The Police Department has also expressed a need to
access the database from their office.
Additionally, current efforts to implement an education program for pedestrians and
bicyclists require accurate collision analysis be done prior to designing the
workshops. OTS has requested that the City system be upgraded as part of PS
PABS, the current OTS funded pedestrian and bike safety project for the City.
On May 25, 2000, The City received approval for the program. Discussions with
Crossroads Software have identified what needs to be done to upgrade the system.
This includes correcting errors in the current map, including areas of the City
incorporated after the original system was installed, and adding a computer station
at the Police Department.
Staff recommends that the City Council approve a Contract Services Agreement
with Crossroads Software in the amount of$17,569.50. Sufficient funds are
available in account No. 261-3200-52021. This contract is 100% funded from the
OTS BPS PABS grant.

or such longer period as may be permitted by the injured party; provided that if the default is an immediate danger to
the health, safety and general welfare, such immediate action may be necessary. Compliance with the provisions of
this Section shall be a condition precedent to termination of this Agreement for cause and to any legal action, and such
compliance shall not be a waiver of any party's right to lake legal action in the event that the dispute is not cured,
provided that nothing herein shall limit City's or the Contractor's right to terminate this Agreement without cause
pursuant to Section 7.8.
7.3 Retention of Funds. Contractor hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable

/4241
and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Contractor's acts or omissions in
performing or failing to perform Contractor's obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by
a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Contractor, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall
appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest
because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to
deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Contractor to insure, indemnify, and protect
City as elsewhere provided herein.
7.4 Waiver. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a nondefaulting
party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. A parry's consent to or approval
of any act by the other party requiring the party's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render
unnecessary the other party's consent to or approval of any subsequent act. Any waiver by either party of any default
must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this
Agreement.
7.5 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 and 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.
7.6 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 any default, to compel
specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy
consistent with the purposes of this Agreement.
7.7 Liquidated Damages. Since the determination of actual damages for any delay in
performance of this Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in the event of a breach of
this Agreement, the Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for and shall pay to the City the sum of as zero dollars
and zero cents �liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the performance of any service required
hereunder, as specified in the Schedule of Performance (Exhibit "D"). The City may withhold from any monies
payable on account of services performed by the Contractor any accrued liquidated damages.

Agreement except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. The City reserves the
right to terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days' written notice to

shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition,the Contractor reserves the right to terminate
this Agreement at any time upon, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days' written notice to City, except that
where termination is due to the fault of the City, the period of notice may be such shorter time as the Contractor may

Revised 09/01/98
7.9 Termination for Default of Contractor. If termination is due to the failure of the Contractor
to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2,take over
the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Contractor shall be liable to the
extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated
(provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to
