All required records must be maintained by the Subrecipient for four years after the City makes final payments and all other pending matters are closed.

 

H.  MAINTENANCE OF RECORDS. The Subrecipient shall maintain fiscal records on a current basis to support its billings to the City.

K.  LIABILITY INSURANCE.

 

(a) The Subrecipient shall maintain public liability and property damage insurance that protects the Subrecipient and the City and its officers, agents, and employees from any and all claims, demands, actions, and suits for damage to property or personal injury, including death, arising from the Subrecipient's work under this contract. The insurance shall provide coverage for not less than $200,000 for personal injury to each person, $500,000 for each occurrence, and $500,000 for each occurrence involving property damages; or a single limit policy of not less than $500,000 covering all claims per occurrence. The limits of the insurance shall be subject to statutory changes as to maximum limits of liability imposed on municipalities of the state of Oregon during the term of the agreement. The insurance shall be without prejudice to coverage otherwise existing and shall name as additional insureds the City and its officers, agents, and employees. Notwithstanding the naming of additional insureds, the insurance shall protect each insured in the same manner as though a separate policy had been issued to each, but nothing herein shall operate to increase the insurer's liability as set forth elsewhere in the policy beyond the amount or amounts for which the insurer would have been liable if only one person or interest had been named as insured. The coverage must apply as to claims between insureds on the policy. The insurance shall provide that it shall not terminate or be canceled without 30 days written notice first being given to the City Auditor. If the insurance is canceled or terminated prior to completion of the contract, the Subrecipient shall provide a new policy with the same terms.

A certificate of insurance, or copy thereof, shall be attached to this Agreement and shall be incorporated herein and made a term and part of this Agreement. The Subrecipient further agrees to maintain worker's compensation insurance coverage for the duration of this Agreement.

 

(b) In the event the Subrecipient's worker's compensation insurance coverage is due to expire during the term of this Agreement, the Subrecipient agrees to timely renew its insurance, either as a carrier-insured employer or a self-insured employer as provided by Chapter 656 of the Oregon Revised Statutes, before its expiration, and the Subrecipient agrees to provide the City of Portland such further certification of worker's compensation insurance as renewals of said insurance occur.

 

(c) If the Subrecipient believes itself to be exempt from the worker's compensation insurance coverage requirement of (a) of this subsection, the Subrecipient agrees to accurately complete the City of Portland's Questionnaire for Worker's Compensation Insurance and Qualification as an Independent Contractor prior to commencing work under this Agreement. In this case, the Questionnaire shall be attached to this Agreement and shall be incorporated herein and made a term and part of this Agreement.

In the event of breach pursuant to this subsection, City may terminate the agreement immediately and the notice requirement contained in Section A, TERMINATION FOR CAUSE, hereof shall not apply.
