However, OLSE shall not be responsible for enforcing or prosecuting violations of City’s Minimum Wage Ordinance. 3. Payments In consideration of the services provided by County in accordance with all terms, conditions, and specifications set forth in this Agreement, including but not limited to Exhibit A, County will submit two invoices to City during the term of the contract. City will pay County at the rate specified in 3.1 of this section. Option and future escalation begin each July 1 upon mutual written agreement by the Parties. 3.1 Compensation: City shall pay County compensation of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000) for the initial one-year term. 3.2 Invoicing: County will submit an invoice to City by September 15, 2025 for 50% of the total stated in 3.1 for services to be provided in the first half of the contract timeframe. County will submit a second invoice by April 15, 2026 for the remainder of the total stated in 3.1 for services to be provided in the second half of the contracted timeframe. City will provide County with the address of the designated recipient for invoices. 3.3 Rate Adjustment – Option Term: Should the parties agree to renew this contract for the one-year option term specified in Section 4.1, City shall pay County compensation of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000) plus a percentage of $15,000 equal to the prior year’s increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) calculated by using the preceding August to August change in the CPI-W. 4. Term This Agreement shall be in full force and effect from 12:01 AM on July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026. If approval of this Agreement is delayed past the commencement date due to extenuating circumstances, this Agreement shall take effect on the date services by the County commence. 4.1 This Agreement includes the option for the City and County to renew for one additional one-year period, extending to June 30, 2027, by mutual written agreement and subject to the rate adjustment described in Section 3.3. Each party shall notify the other of its intent to renew no later than March 1st of the preceding year. 5. Termination This Agreement may be terminated by City or County at any time for any reason upon thirty (30) days’ advance written notice. 5.1 City or County may terminate this Agreement upon less than thirty (30) days’ advance written notice only with cause. In order to terminate for cause, the Party seeking termination must first give the other Party notice of the alleged breach. The latter Party shall have five (5) business days after receipt of such notice to respond and a total of ten (10) calendar days after receipt of such notice to cure the alleged breach. If Party fails to cure the breach within this period, the Party seeking termination may immediately terminate this Agreement without further action. The option available in this paragraph is separate from the ability to terminate without cause with appropriate notice described above. In the event that County provides notice of an alleged breach pursuant to this section, County may, in extreme circumstances, immediately suspend performance of services and payment under this Agreement pending the resolution of the process described in this paragraph. County has sole discretion to determine what constitutes an extreme circumstance for purposes of this paragraph, and County shall use reasonable judgment in making that determination.
