Both parties agree to act in good faith to execute all <br />instruments, prepare all documents, and take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes <br />of this Agreement.

City hereby agrees to pay Consultant a sum not to exceed <br />$193,594.79 in CDBG Funds, notwithstanding any contrary indications that may be contained in Consultant's <br />proposal, for services to be performed and reimbursable costs incurred under this Agreement. In the event of a <br />conflict between this Agreement and Consultant's "Scope of Services" (Exhibit "A") regarding the amount of <br />compensation, the Agreement shall prevail. City shall pay Consultant for services rendered pursuant to this <br />Agreement at the time and in the manner set forth herein. The payments specified below shall be the only payment <br />from City to Consultant for services rendered pursuant to this Agreement. Consultant shall submit all invoices to <br />City in the manner specified herein. Except as specifically authorized by City in writing, Consultant shall not bill City <br />for duplicate services performed by more than one person. <br />Consultant and City acknowledge and agree that compensation paid by City to Consultant under this <br />Agreement is based upon Consultant's estimated costs of providing the services required hereunder, including <br />salaries and benefits of employees and subcontractors of Consultant. Consequently, the parties further agree that <br />compensation hereunder is intended to include the costs of contributions to any persons and/or annuities to which <br />Consultant and its employees, agents, and subcontractors may be eligible. City therefore has no responsibility for <br />such contributions beyond compensation required under this Agreement. <br />Consultant hereby further acknowledges that the City cannot guarantee that CDBG Funds will be received <br />from HUD. City's obligation to fund the work hereunder is limited to the availability of CDBG Funds from HUD.

Consultant shall maintain adequate logs and timesheets in order to verify costs incurred to date. <br />3.4 Method of Payment- CDBG Funds.
