NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises of the
parties as hereafter set forth, it is mutually agreed by and between the parties as follows:
I. Termination of Agreement(s). That certain intergovernmental agreement dated
March 5, 2004, and the amendment to that agreement dated July 19, 2005,
between the City and the MPO are hereby terminated.
2. Services/Term. The City agrees to provide support services to the MPO as said
services are described in Paragraph 4 hereof upon the terms and conditions as are
hereafter set forth. The term of service to be provided by the City to the MPO
under this Agreement shall continue indefinitely but may be terminated by either
party with or without cause, upon the giving of not less than sixty (60) days
advance written notice to the other party.
3. Compensation.
a. Fleet Services. In consideration of the services to be provided by the City
to the MPO hereunder, the MPO agrees to pay the City such amounts as
are necessary to compensate the City for its reasonable costs incurred and
as described in paragraph 4 hereof. Said services shall be invoiced by the
City and shall be paid by the MPO within the terms outlined on the
invoices, net 30 days unless otherwise provided in Exhibit A. In the event
of termination, such compensation shall be prorated to the day of
termination. The MPO and the City agree that costs for services provided

contractual FTE's. For example, for calendar year 2017 it is estimated that the

emergency mechanical support as described in this Exhibit A and Exhibit B, on - vehicles
belonging to the MPO.
2. Preventive Maintenance Servicing, Clean Air Inspections, and Safety Checks.
Preventive maintenance, clean air inspections, and safety checks have set schedules based
on the unique requirements of the vehicle's individual class. _
Y
Since fueling generally takes place off site and current meter readings are difficult to
obtain, Fleet Services will install reminder stickers after every service. Safety checks
reasonably requested by MPO Staff for reasons other than the normal schedule will
generally be performed on demand.
The City will provide maintenance for the vans in accordance with the manufacturers'
suggested schedules of maintenance, and will document the maintenance process
including hours of operation and after hours emergency support information. Upon
completion of required maintenance, the technician will place a sticker in full view noting
the mileage of the next required maintenance. It is the responsibility of the van
coordinator to schedule any required maintenance.
The City shall notify the MPO of any vehicles not presented for service within the
established guidelines.
3. Non-Scheduled Maintenance or Repair Services.
After notification from the Van Pool representative of necessary services, Fleet Services
will determine the nature of repairs and schedule them into the shop on a priority basis.
Mechanics will communicate regularly with the Fleet Services Supervisor, who will in
turn keep MPO Staff reasonably informed of the status of repairs and the expected date of
the vehicle's return to service.
4. Timeliness of Repairs and Service.
The turnaround time for preventive maintenance servicing, clean air inspections and
safety checks is generally one day or less. If during inspections deficient items are noted,
they will be completed as schedules permit. These additional repairs will be reported to
the MPO by Fleet Services and an estimated time of returning to service will be given.
If the repair involves the securing of parts not stocked by either Fleet Services or by local
private parts vendors, the downtime can be several days. In any case, Fleet Services will
5
1
reasonably communicate any delays to the MPO Staf£ MPO owned vehicles will be
available while maintenance is being performed.
5. Quality of Service.
Quality of service for the above services is measured by feedback received from the MPO
and comeback reports from our computerized fleet management system. The MPO will
send out annual surveys which will include a section on maintenance which will be
shared with Fleet Services.
6. Repair Approval.
All repairs, other than routine preventative maintenance and windshield repairs, must be
approved by the MPO prior,to any work being performed on the vehicles.

data management system. MPO billing will be based on a shop labor rate. The rate will
be adjusted annually if necessary based on variable's and labor rate surveys conducted by
Fleet Services. Two labor rates will be utilized; the lower rate will be used for A service
levels and other less technical work. The higher rate will be used for mechanical repairs
and more complicated pm services.
Fort Collins will bill MPO for all repairs on a monthly basis, including any maintenance
or repair on any third-party vehicles delivered or requested by the MPO. These costs will
include parts, supplies, sublet, labor and equipment maintenance services overhead
applicable to maintenance and repair of vans. The maintenance service charges will be
renewed and negotiated in January of each year. If the parties are unable to reach an
agreement on the reasonable cost of labor, either party may choose to continue at the
current price or exercise its right to cancel the agreement under Paragraph 8 of the
Agreement.
8. Fueling and Car Washes.
