i. The project fee set forth in this Agreement is a sum not to exceed the
amount set forth above for all services performed and expenses incurred
under this Agreement.
ii. The project fee includes direct labor costs, overhead costs, and direct
(expense) costs, including materials, supplies, equipment, costs for travel,
reproduction costs, and telephone, facsimile, and computer use incurred
during the billing period.
iii. The Consultant shall maintain time and expense records and provide them

acceptable to the City for work performed to the date of invoice. The
Consultant shall provide progress reports, scheduling, and completion
information on request of the City.

for any satisfactory work completed prior to the date of termination.
c. Indemnification and Hold Harmless.
i. The Consultant shall defend, indemnify, and hold the City, its officers,
officials, employees, and volunteers harmless from any and all claims,
injuries, damages, losses, or suits including attorney fees, arising out of or
resulting from the acts, errors, or omissions of the Consultant in
performance of this Agreement, except for injuries and damages caused by
the sole negligence of the City.
ii. However, should a court of competent jurisdiction determine that this
Agreement is subject to RCW 4.24.115, then, in the event of liability for
damages arising out of bodily injury to persons or damages to property
caused by or resulting from the concurrent negligence of the Consultant and
the City, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers, the Consultant's
liability, including the duty and cost to defend, hereunder shall be only to
the extent of the Consultant's negligence. It is further specifically and
expressly understood that the indemnification provided herein constitutes
the Consultant’s waiver of immunity under Industrial Insurance, Title 51
RCW, solely for the purposes of this indemnification. This waiver has been
mutually negotiated by the parties. The provisions of this section shall
survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
d. No Partnership. The Parties agree that nothing contained in this Agreement shall be
considered as in any way constituting a partnership between the City and
Consultant.
e. Independent Consultant. The Consultant is, and shall be at all times during the
term of this Agreement, an independent contractor and not an employee of the City.
The parties fully understand the nature of independent contractor status and intend
to create an independent contractor relationship. The Consultant, and not the City,
2
shall have the right to control the manner and means by which the work or service is
accomplished. The City shall retain the right, however, to ensure that the work or
service is being performed according to agreed-upon requirements. Consistent
with this relationship, Consultant shall not be covered by any City benefit programs,
such as health and welfare benefit plans, social security, workers’ compensation,
or unemployment compensation and shall not be treated as an employee for
federal or state tax purposes or any other purpose. The Consultant shall be
responsible for paying all taxes related to payments City makes to the Consultant,
including federal income taxes, self-employment (Social Security and Medicaid)
taxes, and local and state business and occupation taxes, and the City is not
responsible for withholding for or paying any of those taxes.
f. Non-discrimination. The Consultant and its employees, agents, and sub-
consultants, if any, shall at all times comply with any and all federal, state, or local
laws, ordinances, rules, or regulations with respect to non-discrimination and equal
employment opportunity, which may at any time be applicable to the City by law,
contract or otherwise, including but not limited to all such requirements which may
apply in connection with employment or the provision of services to the public.
g. Compliance with all applicable laws. The Consultant shall at all times in
connection with performance of this Agreement, comply with any and all other
applicable federal, state and local laws, rules, ordinances, and regulations.
h. Notices. All notices shall be delivered personally or may be delivered by any of the
following methods: mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested; regular mail;
courier service; facsimile; or electronic mail to the other party as their address
appears of record with the City or State. In the case of notice by mail, notice shall
be deemed given on the date of postmark. In case of facsimile or electronic mail,
notice shall be deemed given when received.
i. Ownership of Documents. All work products, papers, notes, memoranda,
correspondence, drawings, specifications, reports, and other documents and
records of any sort produced, received, held, or maintained in conjunction with the
performance of this Agreement by the Consultant shall be and are the exclusive
property of the City, except that the Consultant may use such materials to assist
other public agencies. Upon request of the City or upon completion of any of the
services provided for in this Agreement or upon termination of this Agreement for
any reason, the Consultant shall deliver to the City, machine-reproducible in format
acceptable to the City, copies of any and all such materials. Once accepted by the
City, Consultant shall have no responsibility for subsequent use by other persons.
j. Nonwaiver. Any failure by the City to enforce strict performance of any provision of
this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of the City’s right to subsequently
enforce such provision or any other provision of this Agreement
k. Legal Fees. In any lawsuit between the parties with respect to matters covered by
this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to receive its reasonable
3
attorney fees and costs in the lawsuit, in addition to any other relief that may be
awarded.
l. Applicable Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in
accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. The venue of any action shall
be in the Superior Court of Jefferson County.
m. Assignment or Delegation. The Consultant shall not assign any of its rights or
interest in this Agreement, nor delegate any of its duties hereunder to any other
person, firm, or entity without the express written consent of the City first being
obtained.
n. Modification. No modification of this Agreement shall be effective unless agreed to
in writing and signed by the Parties.
o. Complete Agreement. This Agreement, together with the attachments, reflects the
entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter thereof, supersedes all
prior or contemporaneous oral or written agreements, or any understandings,
statements, representation, or promises, and is intended fully to integrate the
agreement between the parties with respect to the matters described in this
Agreement.
p. Other Terms. Additional terms (if any) are set forth in an attachment that will be
numbered Attachment 3 and initialed and dated by the parties.
