THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into by and between the STATE OF OREGON,
acting by and through its Department of Transportation, hereinafter referred to as
"State," and the City of Tigard, acting by and through its elected officials, hereinafter
referred to as "Agency," collectively hereinafter referred to as the "Parties."
RECITALS
1. Bonita Road, Durham Road, and 72nd Avenue are a part of the city street
system under the jurisdiction and control of Agency.
2. By the authority granted in Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) 190.110, 366.572 and
366.576, state agencies may enter into cooperative agreements with counties, cities
and units of local governments for the performance of work on certain types of
improvement projects with the allocation of costs on terms and conditions mutually
agreeable to the contracting parties.
3. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, hereinafter referred to as
the "ARRA", provides funding for job preservation and creation, infrastructure
investment, energy efficiency and science, assistance to the unemployed, and state
and local fiscal stabilization, for fiscal years 2009 and 2010.
4. The ARRA provides each state a sub-allocation of ARRA funds for cities, counties
and metropolitan areas.
NOW THEREFORE, the premises being in general as stated in the foregoing Recitals, it
is agreed by and between the Parties hereto as follows:
TERMS OF AGREEMENT
1. Under such authority, State and Agency agree to pave various streets or roads as
further identified and shown in the description (Exhibit A-1) and map (Exhibit A-2) both
attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof, hereinafter referred to as
"Project". The Project will consist of a 2-inch pavement overlay in accordance with
1 R Guidelines.
Key No. 16491
Agency/State
Agreement No. 25475
2. The Project shall be conducted as a part of the ARRA Program under Title 23,
United States Code. The total Project cost is estimated at $1,116,000, which is
subject to change. ARRA Program funds for this Project shall be limited to
$1,116,000. The Project will be financed with ARRA funds at 100 percent of the
maximum allowable federal participating amount. Agency will not be required to
provide a match for the ARRA funds but will be responsible for any non-participating
costs, including all costs in excess of the available federal funds.
3. The federal funding for this Project is contingent upon approval by the FHWA and
receipt of federal funds by State. Any work performed prior to "authorization" (also
called obligation of funds) by FHWA or outside the scope of work will be considered
non-participating and paid for at Agency expense.
4. State considers Agency a subrecipient of the federal funds it receives as
reimbursement under this Agreement. The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance
(CFDA) number and title for this Project is 20.205, Highway Planning and
Construction.
5. Agency can place signs that identify Project as "American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act of 2009" (State approved design). Agency may affix additional
signage that identifies local funds used for the Project.
6. Agency shall report to State the required reporting data by federal and state
mandates for delivery of the ARRA program. State shall inform the local agencies of
the reporting requirements once they have been received from FHWA and the
Department of Administrative Services and such requirements shall be made a part
of this Agreement.
7. The term of this Agreement will begin upon execution and will terminate upon
completion of the Project and final payment or September 30, 2015, whichever is
sooner. Any work performed prior to Notice to Proceed from State's Local Agency
Liaison will not be reimbursed.
8. This Agreement may be terminated by mutual written consent of both Parties.
9. State may terminate this Agreement effective upon delivery of written notice to
Agency, or at such later date as may be established by State, under any of the
following conditions:
a. If Agency fails to provide services called for by this Agreement within the
time specified herein or any extension thereof.
2
Agency/State
Agreement No. 25475
b. If Agency fails to perform any of the other provisions of this Agreement,
or so fails to pursue the work as to endanger performance of this
Agreement in accordance with its terms, and after receipt of written
notice from State fails to correct such failures within ten (10) days or
such longer period as State may authorize.
c. If Agency fails to provide payment of its share of the cost of the Project.
d. If State fails to receive funding, appropriations, limitations or other
expenditure authority sufficient to allow State, in the exercise of its
reasonable administrative discretion, to continue to make payments for
performance of this Agreement.
e. If federal or state laws, regulations or guidelines are modified or
interpreted in such a way that either the work under this Agreement is
prohibited or State is prohibited from paying for such work from the
planned funding source.
10.Because of the ARRA funding requirements, Agency must advance the Project for
obligation of funds prior to March 1, 2010; and State must make a determination no
later than December 31, 2009 whether this date will be met. Therefore, if Agency
has not submitted the Project's "Plans, Specifications and Estimates" (PS&E)
package to State's Region office by December 31, 2009, the Project will be reviewed
by State, in coordination with the Oregon Local Program Committee. If State
determines that the ARRA funds will not be, or are unlikely to be, obligated for
construction prior to March 1, 2010, State may terminate this Agreement effective
upon delivery of written notice to Agency, allowing the funds to be distributed to
another project at State's discretion; and State shall have no obligation to replace
the ARRA funds with other state or federal funds.
11.Any termination of this Agreement shall not prejudice any rights or obligations accrued
to the Parties prior to termination.
12.The Special and Standard Provisions attached hereto, marked Attachments 1 and 2,
respectively, are by this reference made a part hereof. The Standard Provisions
apply to all federal-aid projects and may be modified only by the Special Provisions.
The Parties hereto mutually agree to the terms and conditions set forth in
Attachments 1 and 2. In the event of a conflict, this Agreement shall control over the
attachments, and Attachment 1 shall control over Attachment 2.
13.Agency, as a recipient of federal funds, pursuant to this Agreement with State, shall
assume sole liability for Agency's breach of any federal statutes, rules, program
requirements and grant provisions applicable to the federal funds, and shall, upon
3
Agency/State
Agreement No. 25475
Agency's breach of any such conditions that requires State to return funds to the
Federal Highway Administration, hold harmless and indemnify State for an amount
equal to the funds received under this Agreement; or if legal limitations apply to the
indemnification ability of Agency, the indemnification amount shall be the maximum
amount of funds available for expenditure, including any available contingency funds
or other available non-appropriated funds, up to the amount received under this
Agreement.
14.Agency certifies and represents that the individual(s) signing this Agreement has been
authorized to enter into and execute this Agreement on behalf of Agency, under the
direction or approval of its governing body, commission, board, officers, members or
representatives, and to legally bind Agency.
15.This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts (facsimile or otherwise) all
of which when taken together shall constitute one agreement binding on all Parties,
notwithstanding that all Parties are not signatories to the same counterpart. Each copy
of this Agreement so executed shall constitute an original.
16.This Agreement and attached exhibits constitute the entire agreement between the
Parties on the subject matter hereof. There are no understandings, agreements, or
representations, oral or written, not specified herein regarding this Agreement. No
waiver, consent, modification or change of terms of this Agreement shall bind either
Party unless in writing and signed by both Parties and all necessary approvals have
been obtained. Such waiver, consent, modification or change, if made, shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given. The failure of
State to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver by State
of that or any other provision.
THE PARTIES, by execution of this Agreement, hereby acknowledge that each Party
has read this Agreement, understands it, and agrees to be bound by its terms and
conditions.

Project sponsor's written request.
C. Pursuant to ORS 366.425, the advance deposit may be in the form of 1) money
deposited in the State Treasury (an option where a deposit is made in the Local
Government Investment Pool, and an Irrevocable Limited Power of Attorney is sent to
the Highway Finance Office), or 2) an Irrevocable Letter of Credit issued by a local bank
in the name of State, or 3) cash.
D. Agency may satisfy all or part of any matching funds requirements by use of in-kind
contributions rather than cash when prior written approval has been given by State.
25. If the estimated cost exceeds the total matched federal funds available, Agency shall
deposit its share of the required matching funds, plus 100 percent of all costs in excess of
the total matched federal funds. Agency shall also pay 100 percent of the cost of any item
in which FHWA will not participate. If Agency has not repaid any non-participating cost,
future allocations of federal funds, or allocations of State Highway Trust Funds, to that
Agency may be withheld to pay the non-participating costs. If State approves processes,
procedures, or contract administration outside the Local Agency Guidelines that result in
items being declared non-participating, those items will not result in the withholding of
Agency's future allocations of federal funds or the future allocations of State Highway Trust
Funds.
26. Costs incurred by State and Agency for services performed in connection with any phase of
the Project shall be charged to the Project, unless otherwise mutually agreed upon.
27. If Agency makes a written request for the cancellation of a federal-aid project; Agency shall
bear 100 percent of all costs as of the date of cancellation. If State was the sole cause of
the cancellation, State shall bear 100 percent of all costs incurred. If it is determined that
the cancellation was caused by third parties or circumstances beyond the control of State or
Agency, Agency shall bear all development costs, whether incurred by State or Agency,
either directly or through contract services, and State shall bear any State administrative
costs incurred. After settlement of payments, State shall deliver surveys, maps, field notes,
and all other data to Agency.
28. Agency shall follow requirements of the Single Audit Act. The requirements stated in the
Single Audit Act must be followed by those local governments and non-profit organizations
receiving $500,000 or more in federal funds. The Single Audit Act of 1984, PL 98-502 as
amended by PL 104-156, described in "OMB CIRCULAR NO. A-133", requires local
governments and non-profit organizations to obtain an audit that includes internal controls
and compliance with federal laws and regulations of all federally-funded programs in which
the local agency participates. The cost of this audit can be partially prorated to the federal
program.
29. Agency shall make additional deposits, as needed, upon request from State. Requests for
additional deposits shall be accompanied by an itemized statement of expenditures and an
estimated cost to complete the Project.
