SIDE OF THE 200 SOUTH INDIAN CANYON DRIVE BLOCK IN DOWNTOWN
RECOMMENDATION:
That City Council award a contract to Walker Parking Consultants of
Englewood, Colorado in the amount of$68,000 for the preparation
of"Design-Build Scope Documents" in regard to the anticipated
construction of a parking structure along the west side of the 200 South
Indian Canyon Drive block, between Arenas Road and Baristo Road.
SUMMARY:
City Council has directed staff to proceed with the design and construction
process for an approximately 388 space parking structure at this location
in downtown in a timely manner such that groundbreaking for construction
can occur on or about June 1, 2002. This is necessary in order to avoid
the loss of an entire year in the implementation schedule for this much
needed improvement project. In order to accomplish this schedule, a "fast
track" process must be undertaken, including the probable use of a
design-build approach. The preparation of"Design-Build Scope
Documents" are required in order to facilitate this approach and protect
the City's quality assurance concerns regarding the completed facilities.
BACKGROUND:
City Council has given direction to staff to proceed with a "fast track"
approach to the design and construction of a parking structure along the
west side of the 200 South Indian Canyon Drive block, between Arenas
Road on the north and Baristo Road on the south. For previous
specialized design services for parking structures in the Downtown area,
staff has relied on the unique skills and experience of Walker Parking
Consultants. This firm successfully completed three related assignments
for the City of Palm Springs in 1996, 1999 and 2001 in regard to sites then
being considered for structured parking in the Downtown area. The latter
analysis was for this specific site. Walker has designed over 4,000
parking structures all over the United States, including the parking
structure for Desert Regional Medical Center in Palm Springs.

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.
7.2 Disputes. In the event of any dispute arising under this Agreement, the
injured party shall notify the injuring party in writing of its contentions by submitting a claim
therefor. The injured party shall continue performing its obligations hereunder so long as the
injuring party commences to cure such default within ten (10) days of service of such notice and
completes the cure of such default within forty-five (45) days after service of the notice, or such
longer period as may be permitted by the injured party; provided that if the default is an
7
/s.49
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 take 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 to Contractor (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the
payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for
any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, 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 party'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 _zero ($0.00) dollars_ as 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.

termination of this 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
8
/ 5'�91b

termination is due to the fault of the Contractor, the period of notice may be such 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 determine. Upon receipt of any notice of
termination, Contractor shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as may be
specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Contractor shall be entitled to compensation for all
services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any services
authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation
(Exhibit "C") or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section
7.3. In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the terminating party
need not provide non-terminating party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.
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 the Contractor for the purpose of setoff or partial payment of the amounts owed the
City as previously stated.
7.10 Attorneys' Fees. If either party to this Agreement is required to initiate or
defend or made a party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement,
the prevailing party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be
granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorney's fees. Attoney's
fees shall include attorney's fees on any appeal, and in addition a party entitled to attorney's fees
shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for investigating such action, taking depositions and
discovery and all other necessary costs the court allows which are incurred in such litigation. All

enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment.

City shall be personally liable to the Contractor, or any successor in interest, in the event of any

for obtaining this Agreement.
