and incidental WORK or services furnished hereunder shall not in any way relieve the ARCHITECT
of responsibility for the technical adequacy, completeness, or accuracy of its WORK and the

construed to operate as a waiver of any rights under this Agreement or at law or any cause of action

subconsultants, employees, agents, and representatives shall be acting as independent
contractors and shall not be deemed or construed to be employees or agents of CITY in any manner
whatsoever. The ARCHITECT shall not hold itself out as, nor claim to be, an officer or employee
of CITY by reason hereof and will not make any claim, demand, or application to or for any right or
privilege applicable to an officer or employee of CITY. The ARCHITECT shall be solely responsible
for any claims for wages or compensation by ARCHITECT employees, agents, and

and (2) judgments, awards, losses, liabilities, damages, penalties, fines, costs and
expenses of any kind claimed by third parties arising out of, or related to any death,
injury, damage or destruction to any person or any property to the extent caused by
any negligent act, error or omission or willful misconduct arising out of the
ARCHITECT's performance under this Agreement. In the event that any lien is placed
upon the City's property or any of the City's officers, employees or agents as a result
of the negligence or willful misconduct of the ARCHITECT, the ARCHITECT shall at
once cause the same to be dissolved and discharged by giving bond or otherwise.

of any kind claimed by third parties, including without limitation such loss, cost, or expense
resulting from injuries to persons or damages to property, caused solely by the negligence
or willful misconduct of the CITY, its employees, or agents in connection with the
PROJECT.
(c) If the negligence or willful misconduct of both the ARCHITECT and the CITY (or a person
identified above for whom each is liable) is a cause of such third party claim, the loss, cost,
or expense shall be shared between the ARCHITECT and the CITY in proportion to their
relative degrees of negligence or willful misconduct and the right of indemnity will apply for
such proportion.

indirectly employed by any of them, or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, the
indemnification obligations under this Agreement shall not be limited in any way by any limitation

or a subcontractor under workers' or workmens' compensation acts, disability benefit acts, or other
employee benefit acts. The ARCHITECT specifically and expressly waives its immunity under the
Industrial Insurance Act, Title 51, RCW. Such waiver has been mutually negotiated by the

contractor, for a contractor's safety programs or methods, or for compliance by contractors with
laws and regulations. CITY shall use its best efforts to ensure that the construction contract

professional liability.

investigations, the actual characteristics may vary significantly between successive test points and
sample intervals and at locations other than where observation, exploration, and investigations
have been made. Because of the inherent uncertainties in subsurface evaluations, changed or
unanticipated underground conditions may occur that could affect total PROJECT cost and/or
execution. These conditions and cost/execution effects are not the responsibility of the

standard of professional care and judgment in such investigations.

other conditions beyond the control of the ARCHITECT which could not be reasonably anticipated

of Project in accordance with SECTION 18.
SECTION 18 TERMINATION OF WORK
18 1 Either party may terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, if the other party materially breaches
its obligations under this Agreement and is in default through no fault of the terminating party.
However, no such termination may be effected unless the other party is given (1) not less than
fifteen (15) calendar days written notice delivered by certified mail, return receipt requested, of
intent to terminate, and (2) an opportunity for consultation and for cure with the terminating party
before termination. Notice shall be considered issued within seventy-two (72) hours of mailing by
certified mail to the place of business of either party as set forth in this Agreement.
18.2 In addition to termination under subsection 18 1 of this Section, CITY may terminate this Agreement
for its convenience, in whole or in part, provided the ARCHITECT is given (1) not less than fifteen
(15) calendar days written notice delivered by certified mail, return receipt requested, of intent to
terminate, and (2) an opportunity for consultation with CITY before termination.
18 3 If CITY terminates for default on the part of the ARCHITECT, an adjustment in the contract price
pursuant to the Agreement shall be made, but (1) no amount shall be allowed for anticipated profit
on unperformed services or other WORK, and (2) any payment due to the ARCHITECT at the time
of termination may be adjusted to the extent of any additional costs or damages CITY has incurred,
or is likely to incur, because of the ARCHITECT'S breach. In such event, CITY shall consider the
amount of WORK originally required which was satisfactorily completed to date of termination,
whether that WORK is in a form or of a type which is usable and suitable to CITY at the date of
termination and the cost to CITY of completing the WORK itself or of employing another firm to
complete it. Under no circumstances shall payments made under this provision exceed the contract
price In the event of default, the ARCHITECT agrees to pay CITY for any and all damages, costs,
and expenses whether directly, indirectly, or consequentially caused by said default. This provision
shall not preclude CITY from filing claims and/or commencing litigation to secure compensation for
damages incurred beyond that covered by contract retainage or other withheld payments.
18.4 If the ARCHITECT terminates for default on the part of CITY or if CITY terminates for convenience,
the adjustment pursuant to the Agreement shall include payment for services satisfactorily
performed to the date of termination, in addition to termination settlement costs the ARCHITECT
reasonably incurs relating to commitments which had become firm before the termination, unless
CITY determines to assume said commitments
18.5 Upon receipt of a termination notice under subsections 18 1 or 18.2 above, the ARCHITECT shall
(1) promptly discontinue all services affected (unless the notice directs otherwise), and (2) deliver
or otherwise make available to CITY all originals of data, drawings, specifications, calculations,
reports, estimates, summaries, and such other information, documents, and materials as the
ARCHITECT or its subconsultants may have accumulated or prepared in performing this
Agreement, whether completed or in progress, with the ARCHITECT retaining copies of the same.
18 6 Upon termination under any subparagraph above, CITY reserves the right to prosecute the WORK
to completion utilizing other qualified firms or individuals, provided, the ARCHITECT shall have no
responsibility to prosecute further WORK thereon.
18 7 If, after termination for failure of the ARCHITECT to fulfill contractual obligations, it is determined
that the ARCHITECT has not so failed, the termination shall be deemed to have been effected for
the convenience of CITY. In such event, the adjustment pursuant to the Agreement shall be
determined as set forth in subparagraph 18.4 of this Section
18.8 If, because of death, unavailability or any other occurrence, it becomes impossible for any key
personnel employed by the ARCHITECT in PROJECT WORK or for any corporate officer of the
ARCHITECT to render his services to the PROJECT, the ARCHITECT shall not be relieved of its
obligations to complete performance under this Agreement without the concurrence and written
approval of CITY If CITY agrees to termination of this Agreement under this provision, payment
shall be made as set forth in subparagraph 18.3 of this Section
SECTION 19 DISPUTE RESOLUTION
19 1 In the event that any dispute shall arise as to the interpretation of this Agreement, or in the event
of a notice of default as to whether such default does constitute a breach of the Agreement, and if
the parties hereto cannot mutually settle such differences, then the parties shall first pursue
mediation as a means to resolve the dispute. If either of the afore mentioned methods are not

BUSINESS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
YAKIMA, WASHINGTON
AGENDA STATEMENT
1
Item No. 13.
For Meeting of: May 16, 2017
ITEM TITLE: Resolution authorizing an agreement for design services for Yakima
Business Incubator and Public Market
SUBMITTED BY: Sean Hawkins, Economic Development Manager, 575-6274
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
In November 2016, the City of Yakima was awarded $50,000 in Community and Economic
Revitalization Board (CERB) planning grant funds to design a public market or other similar
business incubator project. During the 2017 budget process, the Yakima City Council agreed to
provide local matching funds for this grant in an amount not to exceed $16,667.
The scope of work for the project includes working with City staff to evaluate site locations to
determine two final locations for project consideration. The City Council will decide on the two
final locations. Once the sites are determined, the contractor will create site layout options for
each location, develop conceptual drawings of both location details and estimate final
construction costs. A presentation to the Yakima City Council on each location will complete this
project.
The City of Yakima followed the State of Washington established procedures to select
professional firms using the Municipal Research and Service Center Professional Services
(MRSC) Roster process. Two firms submitted contractor qualification statements and were
interviewed by a selection committee. Graham Baba Architects received the highest score from
the committee.
Upon approval of this professional services contract, CERB staff will complete a contract for the
$50,000 in grant funding which will be brought back to the City Council in June for final approval.
After that step, the study will begin.
ITEM BUDGETED: Yes
