The City understands and agrees that payments by the County to the City under this
Agreement are dependent upon payments to the County from the State, through the
Department of Revenue. The parties agree that payment to the County from the State is a
condition precedent of this Agreement and if payment from the State is not obtained or
continued or is decreased by any amount the County may reduce or terminate this Agreement
by giving the City 30 days’ notice. If the Agreement is terminated due to lack of funding from
the State, the City shall only be entitled to the actual cost of Services rendered up to the date
of termination. If payment from the State to the County is decreased, the Parties may
negotiate a decrease in the amount of Services provided in the Agreement. The City agrees

to bind the party they represent and to consent to modifications, except that the Authorized
Representatives shall have only the authority specifically granted by their respective governing

omissions of its officers, directors, employees or agents and the results thereof to the fullest
extent authorized by law and shall not be responsible for the acts of the other party, its

Municipal Tort Claims Act, Minn. Stat. Ch. 466, and other applicable laws govern liability
arising from the parties’ acts or omissions. In the event of any claims or actions asserted or

agrees to require all contractors or subcontractors hired to do any work on the Project to

agreement, executed by the County and the City.
1.Use of Contractors. The City will engage contractors to perform activities funded
pursuant to this Agreement. However, the City retains primary responsibility to
the County for performance of the activities and the use of such contractors does
not relieve the City from any of its obligations under this Agreement.

contract for such services shall include the following provisions:
(1) The contractor must maintain all records and provide all reporting as required by

agreements between the parties. No other understanding regarding this Agreement,
whether written or oral may be used to bind either party.
10.Audit. The City shall maintain books, records, documents and other evidence pertaining to the
costs or expenses associated with the work performed pursuant to this Agreement. Upon

evidence for a period of six (6) years from the date of the completion of the activities funded by
