C. Insurance Requirements not Limiting. City does not, and shall not, waive any rights that it may possess against Contractor because of the acceptance by City, or the deposit with City, of any insurance policy or certificate required pursuant to this Agreement.

Commercial General Liability Insurance with a minimum limit of $2,000,000.00 per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage and a general aggregate limit of $2,000,000.00 per project or location. If Contractor is a limited liability company, the commercial general liability coverage shall be amended so that Contractor and its managers, affiliates, employees, agents and other persons necessary or incidental to its operation are insureds.
2) Automobile Liability Insurance for any owned, non-owned or hired vehicle used in connection with the performance of this Agreement with a combined single limit of $2,000,000.00 per accident for bodily injury and property damage.

D. Primary and Non-Contributing. The insurance policies required under this Section shall apply on a primary non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to City. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by City, its officers, employees, agents or volunteers, shall be in excess of Contractor's insurance and shall not contribute with it.

E. Contractor's Waiver of Subrogation. The insurance policies required under this Section shall not prohibit Contractor and Contractor's employees, agents or subcontractors from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Contractor hereby waives all rights of subrogation against City.

F. Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. At City's option, Contractor shall either reduce or eliminate the deductibles or self-insured retentions with respect to City, or Contractor shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and expenses.

G. Cancellations or Modifications to Coverage. Contractor shall not cancel, reduce or otherwise modify the insurance policies required by this Section during the term -5-

H. City Remedy for Noncompliance. If Contractor does not maintain the policies of insurance required under this Section in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement, or in the event any of Contractor's policies do not comply with the requirements under this Section, City may either immediately terminate this Agreement or, if insurance is available at a reasonable cost, City may, but has no duty to, take out the necessary insurance and pay, at Contractor's expense, the premium thereon.

Contractor shall provide proof to City's Risk Manager that insurance policies expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Contractor shall furnish such proof at least two weeks prior to the expiration of the coverages.

J. Indemnity Requirements not Limiting. Procurement of insurance by Contractor shall not be construed as a limitation of Contractor's liability or as full performance of Contractor's duty to indemnify City under Section 13 of this Agreement.

Subcontractor Insurance Requirements. Contractor shall require each of its subcontractors that perform Services under this Agreement to maintain insurance coverage that meets all of the requirements of this Section.

PRESSURE WASHING

Public Works Department
Stephanie Katsouleas,
Director

PART I - GENERAL PROVISIONS
A. Scope of Work
The work to be done consists of the sweeping of all public streets, paved public alleys, and specified parking lots in the City of Manhattan Beach in accordance with the Sweeping Schedule which has been approved by the Contract Administrator of the City of Manhattan Beach. Additionally, a separate scope of work for pressure washing services is also included in this agreement and defined in detail under Contract Provisions. Generally, the scope, frequency, and hours of operation of all services are subject to change if determined to be in the best interest of the City.

B. Compensation

1.) Payment
For all of the services which the Contractor is obligated to perform under the terms of this contract, the City shall pay to the Contractor, once each month, a sum equal to the monthly price bid in the Contractor's Proposal, or as amended by any subsequent adjustments thereto as provided hereinafter.

Monthly payments shall be made by the City in arrears, not later than the thirtieth (30th) day of the month following the month for which payment is made.

2.) Adjustment of Payment (Street Sweeping Only)
Adjustment of payment only applies to the Street Sweeping portion of this Agreement. All other services contemplated under this Agreement shall be fixed for the term of the Agreement unless modified through amendment. For the second and subsequent contract years the rates set forth in the contract may be adjusted upward or downward to reflect changes in the cost of doing business, as measured by fluctuations in the Producer Price Index (P.P.I.) published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, for the Los Angeles-Long Beach Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area.

Beginning with the first day of the fourth calendar month of the contract's second year, and the first day of the fourth calendar month of each contract year thereafter, the rates set forth in the contract may be adjusted in a percentage amount equal to the net percentage change in the said P.P.I. during the period of time since the last preceding contract adjustment, calculated to the nearest one percent.

Rate adjustments based upon changes in the P.P.I. shall be made automatically through the administrative process and will not require the periodic approval of the City Council.

The Contractor may petition the City for rate adjustments on the basis of unusual changes in his cost of doing business, such as revised laws or regulations, or changes in disposal fees over which the Contractor has no control. These unusual changes in the cost of doing business shall be based upon factors other than changes in the P.P.I.

In order to justify such a rate increase based on factors other than changes in the P.P.I., the Contractor shall submit financial and accounting data to the City, which clearly substantiates the requested rate increase. After consideration of such financial and accounting data as submitted by the Contractor and any other relevant information, the City Council shall disapprove, approve, or approve with modification the requested rate increase. The decision of the City Council shall be final and conclusive. 1 C. Coordination of Specifications and Special Provisions These Specifications, Special Provisions, and all supplementary documents are essential parts of the contract, and a requirement occurring in one is as binding as though occurring in all. Special Provisions shall govern over Specifications.

D. Authority of the Contract Administrator
The Contract Administrator or his/her authorized representative shall decide all questions which may arise as to the quality or acceptability of work performed, and as to the manner of performance and rate or progress of the work; all questions which arise as to the interpretation of the Specifications; all questions as to the acceptable fulfillment of the contract on the part of the Contractor; and all questions as to claims and compensation. The Contract Administrator's decision shall be final and he shall have executive authority to enforce and make effective such decisions and orders as the Contractor fails to carry out promptly.

Whenever the Contractor is not present on any part of the work where it may be desired to give direction, orders within the scope of these specifications may be given by the Contract Administrator or his authorized representative and the Contractor shall instruct his operators to follow these orders as though they had been issued by the Contractor.
