expenditures of non-CDBG funds for acquisition of, or improvement to, the property.
Reimbursement is not required after the period of time specified in Paragraph 9.9.a.,
above.

whole or in part with CDBG funds from the CITY for $25,000 or less shall be disposed of,
at the expiration or termination of this contract, in accordance with instructions from the
CITY.

whole or in part with funds from the CITY, shall be listed in the property records of the
SUBRECIPIENT and shall include a legal description, size, date of acquisition, value at
time of acquisition, present market value, present condition, address or location, owner's
name if different from the SUBRECIPIENT, information on the transfer or disposition of
the property, and map. The property records shall describe the programmatic purpose for
which the property was acquired and identify the CDBG national objective that will be met.

which the improvements were made and identify the CDBG national objective that will be
met.

and previous agreements with the CITY shall be listed in the property records of the
SUBRECIPIENT and shall include a description of the property, location, model number,
manufacturer's serial number, date of acquisition, funding source, unit cost at the time of

of real property, expendable personal property, and nonexpendable personal property
purchased in whole or in part with funds given to the SUBRECIPIENT pursuant to the
terms of this agreement. The SUBRECIPIENT shall dispose of all such property in

termination of this Agreement, all the assets owned or held as a result of this Agreement,
including, but not limited to any funds on hand, any accounts receivable attributable to
these funds, mortgages, notes, and other collateral and any overpayments due to
unearned funds or costs disallowed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement that were
disbursed to the SUBRECIPIENT by the CITY. The SUBRECIPIENT shall within 30 days
of expiration or termination of this Agreement execute any and all documents as required

of this Agreement shall be retained by the CITY.
9.13 Conflicts with Applicable Laws: If any provision of this agreement conflicts with any
applicable law or regulation, only the conflicting provision shall be deemed by the parties

modification is impossible. However, the obligations under this agreement, as modified,
shall continue and all other provisions of this agreement shall remain in full force and
effect.
9.14 Renegotiation or Modification: Modifications of provisions of the agreement shall be valid
only when in writing and signed by duly authorized representatives of each party. The
parties agree to renegotiate this agreement if the CITY determines, in its sole and absolute
discretion, that federal, State and/or CITY revisions of any applicable laws or regulations,
or increases or decreases in budget allocations make changes in this agreement
necessary.
9.15 Right to Waive: The CITY may, for good and sufficient cause, as determined by the CITY
in its sole and absolute discretion, waive provisions in this agreement or seek to obtain
such waiver from the appropriate authority. Waiver requests from the SUBRECIPIENT
shall be in writing. Any waiver shall not be construed to be a modification of this
agreement.
9.16 Disputes: In the event an unresolved dispute exists between the SUBRECIPIENT and the
CITY, the CITY shall refer the questions, including the views of all interested parties and
the recommendation of the CITY, to the City Manager for determination. The City
Manager, or an authorized representative, will issue a determination within 30 calendar
days of receipt and so advise the CITY and the SUBRECIPIENT, or in the event additional
time is necessary, the CITY will notify the SUBRECIPIENT within the 30 day period that
additional time is necessary. The SUBRECIPIENT agrees that the City Manager's
determination shall be final and binding on all parties.
9.17 Indemnification:
SUBRECIPIENT shall at all times hereafter indemnify, hold harmless and, at the City Attorney's
option, defend or pay for an attorney selected by the City Attorney to defend CITY, its officers,
agents, servants, and employees from and against any and all causes of action, demands, claims,
losses, liabilities, and expenditures of any kind, including attorney fees, court costs, and
expenses, caused or alleged to be caused by any intentional, negligent, or reckless act of, or
omission of, SUBRECIPIENT, its employees, agents, servants, or officers, or accruing, resulting
from, or related to the subject matter of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any and all
claims, losses, liabilities, expenditures, demands, or causes of action of any nature whatsoever
resulting from injuries or damages sustained by any person or property. In the event any lawsuit
or other proceeding is brought against CITY by reason of any such claim, cause of action, or
demand, SUBRECIPIENT shall, upon written notice from CITY, resist and defend such lawsuit or
proceeding by counsel satisfactory to CITY or, at CITY's option, pay for an attorney selected by
the City Attorney to defend CITY. The obligations of this section shall survive the expiration or
earlier termination of this Agreement. To the extent considered necessary by CITY, any sums
due to SUBRECIPIENT under this Agreement may be retained by CITY until all of CITY's claims
for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement have been settled or otherwise resolved; and any
amount withheld shall not be subject to payment of interest by CITY.
If SUBRECIPIENT uses a subcontractor, SUBRECIPIENT shall, by written contract, require its
subcontractors to agree to the requirements and obligations of this Section 9.15.
9.18 Public Records:
SUBRECIPIENT shall comply with all public records laws in accordance with Chapter 119,
Fla. Stat. In accordance with state law, SUBRECIPIENT agrees to:
a) Keep and maintain all records that ordinarily and necessarily would be required by
the CITY.
b) Provide the public with access to public records on the same terms and conditions
that the CITY would provide for the records and at a cost that does not exceed the
costs provided in Chapter 119, Fla. Stat. or as otherwise provided by law.
c) Ensure that public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt from public
records disclosure are not disclosed except as authorized by law.
d) Meet all requirements for retaining public records and transfer, at no cost, to the
CITY all records in possession of the SUBRECIPIENT at the termination of the
contract and destroy any public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt
from public records disclosure requirements. All records stored electronically must

technology systems of the CITY. All records shall be transferred to the CITY prior
to final payment being made to the SUBRECIPIENT.
