arise out of the performance or nonperformance of COUNTY's covenants and <br /> obligations under this AGREEMENT and which result from the actively negligent or <br /> wrongful acts of COUNTY or its officers, employees, or agents. This provision requiring <br /> COUNTY to hold harmless, indemnify, and defend each CITY shall expressly not apply to <br /> claims, losses, liabilities, or damages arising from actions or omissions, negligent or <br /> otherwise, of any independent contractor providing services pursuant to a contract with the <br /> COUNTY. In the event of concurrent negligence of the COUNTY, its officers, or <br /> employees, and any CITY, its officers and employees, then the liability for any and all <br /> claims for injuries or damages to persons and/or property or any other loss or cost which <br /> arises out of the terms, conditions, covenants or responsibilities of this AGREEMENT shall <br /> be apportioned in any dispute or litigation according to the California theory of <br /> comparative negligence. <br /> i <br /> 19. Appropriations, During the term of this AGREEMENT, for each fiscal year, each CITY <br /> shall make every effort to adopt all necessary budgets and make all necessary j <br /> appropriations for all payments due hereunder. The covenant contained in this Section 19 <br /> shall be deemed to be, and shall be construed to be, contingent upon the continuing offer by <br /> COUNTY to provide SERVICES and use of SHELTERS to each individual CITY. To the <br /> extent COUNTY offers the provision of SERVICES and use of any SHELTERS to any <br /> CITY, the continued responsibility of such CITY to make all payments required hereunder <br /> shall be a duty imposed by law and it shall be the duty of each and every public official of <br /> each CITY to take such actions and do such things as are required by law in performance of <br /> the official duty of such officials to enable the CITY to carry out and perform the covenants <br /> contained in this Section 19. All PARTIES acknowledge that the construction, <br /> maintenance and availability of SHELTERS for the provision of services to all <br /> PARTIES and the division of the costs of constructing and maintaining such <br /> SHELTERS among the PARTIES allows for costs efficiencies and significant savings <br /> to each PARTY and that each PARTY has entered into this AGREEMENT and its <br /> SERVICES AGREEMENT in reliance on such shared costs and resulting savings. <br /> Each PARTY, to provide assurance of such cost efficiencies to each remaining <br /> PARTY, hereby expresses its commitment to fulfill its stated obligations under this <br /> AGREEMENT regardless of the term of the AGREEMENT overlapping more than one <br /> fiscal year and acknowledges the financial burden that any breach of the terms of this <br /> AGREEMENT will have on all other PARTIES. <br /> 20. Assignability. Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, no PARTY shall assign <br /> I <br /> any of its obligations or rights hereunder without the consent of all other PARTIES. <br /> 13 <br /> 25C-18 <br />
