suspend the Services upon terms and conditions mutually acceptable to the Parties for any period of time.

9. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
9.1. No Waiver of Rights. A waiver by any Party to this Agreement of the breach of any term or
provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by
either Party. The Town’s approval or acceptance of, or payment for, services shall not be construed to
operate as a waiver of any rights or benefits to be provided under this Agreement. No covenant or term of
this Agreement shall be deemed to be waived by the Town except in writing signed by the Town Council or
by a person expressly authorized to sign such waiver by resolution of the Town Council of the Town of
Avon, and any written waiver of a right shall not be construed to be a waiver of any other right or to be a
continuing waiver unless specifically stated.
9.2. No Waiver of Governmental Immunity. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to waive,
limit, or otherwise modify any governmental immunity that may be available by law to the Town, its officials,
employees, contractors, or agents, or any other person acting on behalf of the Town and, in particular,
governmental immunity afforded or available pursuant to the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act, Title
24, Article 10, Part 1 of the Colorado Revised Statutes.
9.3. Affirmative Action. Contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for

9.6. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to or shall create
a contractual relationship with, cause of action in favor of, or claim for relief for, any third party, including
any agent, sub-consultant, or sub-contractor of Contractor. Absolutely no third-party beneficiaries are
intended by this Agreement. Any third-party receiving a benefit from this Agreement is an incidental and
unintended beneficiary only.
9.7. Article X, Section 20/TABOR. The Parties understand and acknowledge that the Town is subject
to Article X, § 20 of the Colorado Constitution (“TABOR”). The Parties do not intend to violate the terms
and requirements of TABOR by the execution of this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that this
2025 PSA FORM: Avon Professional Service Agreement AECOM Technical Services, Inc April 23, 2025
Page 11 of 19
Agreement does not create a multi-fiscal year direct or indirect debt or obligation within the meaning of
TABOR and, therefore, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all payment obligations
of the Town are expressly dependent and conditioned upon the continuing availability of funds beyond the
term of the Town's current fiscal period ending upon the next succeeding December 31. Financial
obligations of the Town payable after the current fiscal year are contingent upon funds for that purpose
being appropriated, budgeted, and otherwise made available in accordance with the rules, regulations, and
resolutions of the Town, and other applicable laws. Upon the failure to appropriate such funds, this
Agreement shall be terminated.
9.8. Governing Law, Venue, and Enforcement. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted
according to the law of the State of Colorado. Venue for any action arising under this Agreement shall be
in the appropriate court for Eagle County, Colorado, and the parties consent and agree to the jurisdiction of
such courts. To reduce the cost of dispute resolution and to expedite the resolution of disputes under this
Agreement, the Parties hereby waive any and all right either may have to request a jury trial in any civil
action relating primarily to the enforcement of this Agreement. The Parties agree the rule providing
ambiguities in a contract are to be construed against the drafting party shall not apply to the interpretation
of this Agreement. If there is any conflict between the language of this Agreement and any exhibit or
attachment, the language of this Agreement shall govern.
9.9. Survival of Terms and Conditions. The Parties understand and agree that all terms and
conditions of the Agreement that require continued performance, compliance, or effect beyond the
termination date of the Agreement shall survive such termination date and shall be enforceable in the event
of a failure to perform or comply.
9.10. Assignment and Release. All or part of the rights, duties, obligations, responsibilities, or benefits
set forth in this Agreement shall not be assigned by Contractor without the express written consent of the
Town Council. Any written assignment shall expressly refer to this Agreement, specify the particular rights,
duties, obligations, responsibilities, or benefits so assigned, and shall not be effective unless approved by
resolution or motion of the Town Council. No assignment shall release the Applicant from performance of

including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees (collectively referred to “Losses”), arising out of the
performance of the Services, provided that (a) any such claim, damage, loss or expense is caused by any
negligent act or omission of (i) Contractor, (ii) anyone directly or indirectly employed by Contractor or (iii)
anyone for whose acts Contractor may be liable; and (b) such indemnification shall not apply to the extent
that such Losses are caused by the negligence of the Town or other party indemnified hereunder. If

repair; or maintenance of any building, structure, highway, bridge, viaduct, water, sewer, or gas distribution
system, or other works dealing with construction, or any moving, demolition, or excavation connected with

Contractor or the Contractor's agents, representatives, subcontractors, or suppliers. If the Contractor is a
person or entity providing architectural, engineering, surveying, or other design services, then the extent of
Contractor's obligation to indemnify the Town may be determined only after the Contractor's liability or fault
has been determined by adjudication, alternative dispute resolution, or otherwise resolved by mutual
agreement between the Contractor and Town. The indemnification in this Section 9.16 shall be construed
to comply with C.R.S. § 13-50.5-102(8) et. seq.
