<br />March 6, 2006 and March 20, 2006 and approved the terms and conditions set

<br />also taken action at its meeting of March 7, 2006 and March 21,2006, and
<br />approved the terms and conditions set forth herein and authorized the execution
<br />of this final agreement.
<br />
<br />XI. The City shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the District and its officials,
<br />officers, employees, agents, and volunteers from and against any and all losses,

<br />personal injury, bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation
<br />of any federal, state, or municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, by (a)
<br />the willful misconduct, breaches of this Agreement, negligent violations of law,
<br />or negligent acts or omissions of the City or its officials, officers, employees,
<br />agents and volunteers, or (b) acts for which they could be held strictly liable.
<br />The foregoing obligation of the City shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of
<br />life, damage to property, or violation of law arises wholly form the negligence or
<br />willful misconduct of the District or its officers, employees, agents, or volunteers
