Waterloo Pavement Management Plan Update FY2025-31
12/18/2023
THIS AGREEMENT is between the City of Waterloo, Iowa (hereafter "CLIENT") and HR GREEN,
INC. (hereafter "COMPANY").
1.0 Project Understanding
1.1 General Understanding
The project will consist of updating the Waterloo Pavement Management Program completed in
2019 and the Update of the Waterloo PM Program completed in 2022 by providing the following
services:
• Update inventory of the City's street system
• Evaluate the system's current roadway conditions using most recent IPMP Data
• Review major rehabilitation and reconstruction alternatives and the thresholds that will
trigger their use to be used in the data analysis and projections and their life cycle costs
• Develop revised sustainable maintenance/replacement schedules with annualized costs
1.2 Methodology
Pavement Inventory, Condition Analysis, and Recommending and Prioritizing Improvements:
• IPMP Data — The Iowa Department of Transportation, through the Iowa Pavement
Management Program (IPMP), collects pavement condition data for all public roadways
in Iowa on a biennial basis. This automated data collection, utilizing vehicle -mounted
sensors, includes roughness of the roadways and various pavement distresses such as
rutting or cracking. In addition, a video inventory is obtained. HR Green will analyze this
data utilizing the Deighton Total Infrastructure Management System — Business
Analytics (dTIMS- BA) software.
• Historical review — HR Green will also perform a review of recent plans and maintenance
information provided by the City of Waterloo.
• Putting dTIMS to work — The IPMP provides cities with a powerful tool for pavement
management by subsidizing subscriptions to dTIMS. HR Green's project team has the
know-how to put dTIMS to work for the City of Waterloo. By using the City's online
software portal, HR Green will cost-effectively analyze vast amounts of mobile scanning
data that are already available from the IPMP. With the proper inputs, dTIMS is capable
of expediting the LCC analysis process. Properly utilizing dTIMS with accurate inputs will
ensure the right treatment is chosen for the right pavements at the right time.
1.3 Data/Assumptions
• Update inventory of the City's street system, which consists of over 400 centerline miles
• Evaluate the system's current roadway conditions using most recent IPMP Data
• Review major rehabilitation and reconstruction alternatives, their costs, and the
thresholds that will trigger their use to be used in the data analysis and projections and
their life cycle costs
• Develop revised sustainable maintenance/replacement schedules with annualized costs
o Maintaining target Pavement Condition Index (PCI)
o Funding at current levels, which indicates the resulting future average PCI
o Funding with 20% reduction of Lost Option Sales Tax Funds and the resulting
future average PCI
• Prepare a 7-Year CIP for FY 2025-31 with the agreed upon annual funding level

or the performance of the services shall be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Iowa.
8.13 Dispute Resolution
Mediation. In an effort to resolve any conflicts that arise during the design or construction of the project or
following the completion of the project, the CLIENT and COMPANY agree that all disputes between them arising
out of or relating to this Agreement shall be submitted to non -binding mediation unless the parties mutually
agree otherwise. The CLIENT and COMPANY further agree to include a similar mediation provision in all
agreements with independent contractors and consultants retained for the project and to require all independent

remain the property of COMPANY. COMPANY shall retain these records for a period of five (5) years following
completion/submission of the records, during which period they will be made available to the CLIENT at all
reasonable times.
8.16 Reuse of Documents
All project documents including, but not limited to, plans and specifications furnished by COMPANY under this
project are intended for use on this project only. Any reuse, without specific written verification or adoption by

COMPANY from all claims, damages and expenses including attorneys fees arising out of or resulting
therefrom.
Versionl.0 020122 Page 6
Waterloo Pavement Management Plan Update FY2025-31
12/18/2023
Under no circumstances shall delivery of electronic files for use by the CLIENT be deemed a sale by the
COMPANY, and the COMPANY makes no warranties, either express or implied, of merchantability and fitness
for any particular purpose. In no event shall the COMPANY be liable for indirect or consequential damages as
a result of the CLIENT's use or reuse of the electronic files.
8.17 Failure to Abide by Design Documents or To Obtain Guidance
The CLIENT agrees that it would be unfair to hold COMPANY liable for problems that might occur should
COMPANY'S plans, specifications or design intents not be followed, or for problems resulting from others' failure
to obtain and/or follow COMPANY'S guidance with respect to any errors, omissions, inconsistencies,
ambiguities or conflicts which are detected or alleged to exist in or as a consequence of implementing
COMPANY'S plans, specifications or other Instruments of Service. Accordingly, the CLIENT waives any claim
against COMPANY, and agrees to defend, indemnify and hold COMPANY harmless from any claim for injury
or losses that results from failure to follow COMPANY'S plans, specifications or design intent, or for failure to
obtain and/or follow COMPANY'S guidance with respect to any alleged errors, omissions, inconsistencies,
ambiguities or conflicts contained within or arising as a result of implementing COMPANY'S plans, specifications
or other Instruments of Service. The CLIENT also agrees to compensate COMPANY for any time spent and
expenses incurred remedying CLIENT's failures according to COMPANY'S prevailing fee schedule and
expense reimbursement policy.
8.18 Opinion of Probable Construction Cost
As part of the Deliverables, COMPANY may submit to the CLIENT an opinion of probable cost required to
construct work recommended, designed, or specified by COMPANY, if required by CLIENT. COMPANY is not
a construction cost estimator or construction contractor, nor should COMPANY'S rendering an opinion of
probable construction costs be considered equivalent to the nature and extent of service a construction cost
estimator or construction contractor would provide. This requires COMPANY to make a number of assumptions
as to actual conditions that will be encountered on site; the specific decisions of other design professionals
engaged; the means and methods of construction the contractor will employ; the cost and extent of labor,
equipment and materials the contractor will employ; contractor's techniques in determining prices and market
conditions at the time, and other factors over which COMPANY has no control. Given the assumptions which
must be made, COMPANY cannot guarantee the accuracy of its opinions of cost, and in recognition of that fact,
the CLIENT waives any claim against COMPANY relative to the accuracy of COMPANY'S opinion of probable
construction cost.
8.19 Design Information in Electronic Form
Because electronic file information can be easily altered, corrupted, or modified by other parties, either
intentionally or inadvertently, without notice or indication, COMPANY reserves the right to remove itself from its
ownership and/or involvement in the material from each electronic medium not held in its possession. CLIENT
shall retain copies of the work performed by COMPANY in electronic form only for information and use by
CLIENT for the specific purpose for which COMPANY was engaged. Said material shall not be used by CLIENT
or transferred to any other party, for use in other projects, additions to this project, or any other purpose for
which the material was not strictly intended by COMPANY without COMPANY's express written permission.
Any unauthorized use or reuse or modifications of this material shall be at CLIENT'S sole risk. Furthermore,
the CLIENT agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold COMPANY harmless from all claims, injuries, damages,
losses, expenses, and attorneys fees arising out of the modification or reuse of these materials.
The CLIENT recognizes that designs, plans, and data stored on electronic media including, but not limited to
computer disk, magnetic tape, or files transferred via email, may be subject to undetectable alteration and/or
uncontrollable deterioration. The CLIENT, therefore, agrees that COMPANY shall not be liable for the
completeness or accuracy of any materials provided on electronic media after a 30 day inspection period, during
which time COMPANY shall correct any errors detected by the CLIENT to complete the design in accordance
with the intent of the contract and specifications. After 40 days, at the request of the CLIENT, COMPANY shall
submit a final set of sealed drawings, and any additional services to be performed by COMPANY relative to the
submitted electronic materials shall be subject to separate Agreement. The CLIENT is aware that differences
may exist between the electronic files delivered and the printed hard -copy construction documents. In the event
of a conflict between the signed construction documents prepared by the COMPANY and electronic files, the
signed or sealed hard -copy construction documents shall govern.
8.20 Information Provided by Others
The CLIENT shall furnish, at the CLIENT's expense, all information, requirements, reports, data, surveys and
instructions required by this Agreement. The COMPANY may use such information, requirements, reports,
data, surveys and instructions in performing its services and is entitled to rely upon the accuracy and
completeness thereof. The COMPANY shall not be held responsible for any errors or omissions that may arise
Versionl.0 020122 Page 7
Waterloo Pavement Management Plan Update FY2025-31
12/18/2023
as a result of erroneous or incomplete information provided by the CLIENT and/or the CLIENT's consultants
and contractors.
COMPANY is not responsible for accuracy of any plans, surveys or information of any type including electronic
media prepared by any other consultants, etc. provided to COMPANY for use in preparation of plans. The
CLIENT agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to indemnify and hold harmless the COMPANY from any
damages, liabilities, or costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees and defense costs, arising out of or connected
in any way with the services performed by other consultants engaged by the CLIENT.
COMPANY is not responsible for accuracy of topographic surveys provided by others. A field check of a
topographic survey provided by others will not be done under this Agreement unless indicated in the Scope of
Services.
8.21 Force Majeure
The CLIENT agrees that the COMPANY is not responsible for damages arising directly or indirectly from any
delays for causes beyond the COMPANY's control. CLIENT agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold COMPANY,
its consultants, agents, and employees harmless from any and all liability, other than that caused by the
negligent acts, errors, or omissions of COMPANY, arising out of or resulting from the same. For purposes of
this Agreement, such causes include, but are not limited to, strikes or other labor disputes; severe weather
disruptions or other natural disasters or acts of God; fires, riots, war or other emergencies; failure of any
government agency to act in timely manner; failure of performance by the CLIENT or the CLIENT'S contractors
or consultants; or discovery of any hazardous substances or differing site conditions. Severe weather
disruptions include but are not limited to extensive rain, high winds, snow greater than two (2) inches and ice.
In addition, if the delays resulting from any such causes increase the cost or time required by the COMPANY to
perform its services in an orderly and efficient manner, the COMPANY shall be entitled to a reasonable
adjustment in schedule and compensation.
8.22 Job Site Visits and Safety
Neither the professional activities of COMPANY, nor the presence of COMPANY'S employees and sub -
consultants at a construction site, shall relieve the General Contractor and any other entity of their obligations,
duties and responsibilities including, but not limited to, construction means, methods, sequence, techniques or
procedures necessary for performing, superintending or coordinating all portions of the work of construction in
accordance with the contract documents and any health or safety precautions required by any regulatory
agencies. COMPANY and its personnel have no authority to exercise any control over any construction
contractor or other entity or their employees in connection with their work or any health or safety precautions.
The CLIENT agrees that the General Contractor is solely responsible for job site safety, and warrants that this
intent shall be made evident in the CLIENT's AGREEMENT with the General Contractor. The CLIENT also
agrees that the CLIENT, COMPANY and COMPANY'S consultants shall be indemnified and shall be made
additional insureds on the General Contractor's and all subcontractor's general liability policies on a primary and
non-contributory basis.
8.23 Hazardous Materials
CLIENT hereby understands and agrees that COMPANY has not created nor contributed to the creation or
existence of any or all types of hazardous or toxic wastes, materials, chemical compounds, or substances, or
any other type of environmental hazard or pollution, whether latent or patent, at CLIENT's premises, or in
connection with or related to this project with respect to which COMPANY has been retained to provide
professional engineering services. The compensation to be paid COMPANY for said professional engineering
services is in no way commensurate with, and has not been calculated with reference to, the potential risk of
injury or loss which may be caused by the exposure of persons or property to such substances or conditions.
Therefore, to the fullest extent permitted by law, CLIENT agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold COMPANY, its
officers, directors, employees, and consultants, harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, and
expenses, whether direct, indirect, or consequential, including, but not limited to, attorney fees and Court costs,
arising out of, or resulting from the discharge, escape, release, or saturation of smoke, vapors, soot, fumes,
acid, alkalis, toxic chemicals, liquids gases, or any other materials, irritants, contaminants, or pollutants in or
into the atmosphere, or on, onto, upon, in, or into the surface or subsurface of soil, water, or watercourses,
objects, or any tangible or intangible matter, whether sudden or not.
It is acknowledged by both parties that COMPANY'S scope of services does not include any services related to
asbestos or hazardous or toxic materials. In the event COMPANY or any other party encounters asbestos or
hazardous or toxic materials at the job site, or should it become known in any way that such materials may be
present at the job site or any adjacent areas that may affect the performance of COMPANY'S services,
COMPANY may, at its option and without liability for consequential or any other damages, suspend performance
of services on the project until the CLIENT retains appropriate specialist consultant(s) or contractor(s) to identify,
Versionl.0 020122 Page 8
Waterloo Pavement Management Plan Update FY2025-31
12/18/2023
abate and/or remove the asbestos or hazardous or toxic materials, and warrants that the job site is in full
compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Nothing contained within this Agreement shall be construed or interpreted as requiring COMPANY to assume
the status of a generator, storer, transporter, treater, or disposal facility as those terms appear within the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C.A., §6901 et seq., as amended, or within any State statute
governing the generation, treatment, storage, and disposal of waste.
8.24 Certificate of Merit
The CLIENT shall make no claim for professional negligence, either directly or in a third party claim, against
COMPANY unless the CLIENT has first provided COMPANY with a written certification executed by an
independent design professional currently practicing in the same discipline as COMPANY and licensed in the
State in which the claim arises. This certification shall: a) contain the name and license number of the certifier;
b) specify each and every act or omission that the certifier contends is a violation of the standard of care
expected of a design professional performing professional services under similar circumstances; and c) state in
complete detail the basis for the certifier's opinion that each such act or omission constitutes such a violation.
This certificate shall be provided to COMPANY not less than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the presentation
of any claim or the institution of any judicial proceeding.
8.25 Limitation of Liability
In recognition of the relative risks and benefits of the Project to both the CLIENT and the COMPANY, the risks
have been allocated such that the CLIENT agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to limit the liability of
the COMPANY and COMPANY'S officers, directors, partners, employees, shareholders, owners and sub -
consultants for any and all claims, losses, costs, damages of any nature whatsoever or claims expenses from
any cause or causes, including attorney's fees and costs and expert -witness fees and costs, so that the total
aggregate liability of the COMPANY and COMPANY'S officers, directors, partners, employees, shareholders,
owners and sub -consultants shall not exceed $50,000.00, or the COMPANY'S total fee for services rendered
on this Project, whichever is greater. It is intended that this limitation apply to any and all liability or cause of
action however alleged or arising, unless otherwise prohibited by law.
8.26 Intentionally Omitted

entity as defined by said Act, and the CLIENT requires project financing information for the services performed
under this Agreement, the CLIENT will provide the COMPANY with a letter detailing who their independent
registered municipal advisor is and that the CLIENT will rely on the advice of such advisor. A sample letter can
be provided to the CLIENT upon request.
