SECTION 12. ARCHITECTURAL BARRIERS ACT/AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT
The Subrecipeint shall meet the requirements, where applicable, of the Architectural

Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") (42 USC 12 13 1; 47 USC 155, 210, 218 and 2 5 5)
requires that the design and construction of facilities for first occupancy after January 26,
1993 must include measures to make them readily accessible and usable by individuals with
disabilities. The ADA further requires the removal of architectural barriers and
communication barriers that are structural in nature in existing facilities, where such
removal is readily achievable -- that is, easily accomplishable and able to be carried out
without much difficulty or expense.
SECTION 113. GRANTOR RECOGNITION
The Subrecipient shall ensure recognition of the role of the City in providing services
through this Agreement. All activities, facilities and items utilized pursuant to this
Agreement shall be prominently labeled as to funding source. In addition, the Subrecipient
will include a reference to the support provided herein in all publications made possible
with funds made available under this Agreement. Such labeling and/or reference shall
include the following credit line: "Funding for programs or projects of this agency has been
provided in part by the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program through
the City of Fort Collins."
SECTION 14. OTHER PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS
The Subrecipient shall carry out each activity in compliance with all Federal laws and
regulations described in Subpart K of 24 CFR 570, regardless if the law is specifically stated
in this Agreement, except that:
10
(A) The Subrecipient does not assume the City's environmental responsibilities
described in Section 570.604; and
(B) The Subrecipient does not assume the City's responsibility for initiating the review
process under Executive Order 12372.
The Subrecipient, in performance of this Agreement, agrees to comply with all

limited to Federal Community Development Block Grant Regulations and other policies and
guidelines established for the City of Fort Collins CDBG Program. Subrecipient agrees to
comply with all provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act and all regulations
interpreting or enforcing such act.
SECTION COMPLIANCE 24-76.5-103 (11111023): PROOF OF
PRESENCE
Subrecipient acknowledges that the CDBG funds are a "public benefit" within the
meaning of C.R.S. § 24-76.5-103. As such, the Subrecipient shall ensure compliance with
C.R.S. § 24-76.5-103 by performing the required verifications. Specifically, when required
the Recipient shall ensure that:
(A) If the public benefit provided by the funds flows directly to a natural person (i.e.
not a corporation, partnership, or other legally -created entity) 18 years of age or
older, he/she must do the following:

(B) If an individual applying for the benefits identified herein executes the affidavit
stating that he/she is an alien lawfully present in the United States, Subrecipient
shall verify his/her lawful presence through the federal systematic alien
verification or entitlement program, known as the "SAVE Program," operated by
the U.S. Department of Homeland Security or a successor program designated by
said department. In the event Subrecipient determines through such verification
process that the individual is not an alien lawfully present in the United States,
the Recipient shall not provide benefits to such individual with CDBG funds.
City acknowledges that the Scope of Services provided by Subrecipient herein may
fall within several exceptions to the verification requirements of C.R.S. § 24-76.5-103
for non -profits. For example, certain programs, services, or assistance such as, but
11
not limited to, soup kitchens, crisis counseling and intervention, short-term shelter
or prenatal care are not subject to the verification requirements of C.R.S. § 24-76.5-
103.

Basic Pilot Program is discontinued.
(D) Subrecipient is prohibited from using Basic Pilot Program procedures to
undertake pre -employment screening of job applicants while this Agreement is
being performed.
(E) If Subrecipient obtains actual knowledge that a subcontractor performing work
under this Agreement knowingly employs or contracts with an illegal alien,
Subrecipient shall:
(1) Notify such subcontractor and the City within three days that Subrecipient
has actual knowledge that the subcontractor is employing or contracting
with an illegal alien; and
(2) Terminate the subcontract with the subcontractor if within three days of
receiving the notice required pursuant to this section the subcontractor

If the Subrecipient fails to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
the City may pursue such remedies as are available in accordance with 24 CFR 85.43
including but not limited to, the termination of this Agreement in the manner specified
herein.
(A) Termination for Cause - If the Subrecipient fails to comply with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and any of the following conditions exist:
(1) The lack of compliance with the provisions of this Agreement are of such
scope and nature that the City deems continuation of this Agreement to be
substantially non -beneficial to the public interest;
(2) The Subrecipient has failed to take satisfactory corrective action as directed by
the City or its authorized representative within the time specified by same;
(3) The Subrecipient has failed within the time specified by the City or its
authorized representative to satisfactorily substantiate its compliance with the
terms and conditions of this Agreement.
The City may terminate this Agreement in whole or in part, and thereupon shall
notify in writing the Subrecipient of the termination, the reasons therefore, and the effective
date. The effective date shall not be prior to notification of the termination by the City to
the Subrecipient. Costs resulting from obligations incurred by the Subrecipient after
termination of the Agreement are not allowable unless specifically authorized in writing by
the City.
(B) Termination for Convenience
The award may be terminated for convenience, in whole or in part, as follows:
(1) By the City with the consent of the Subrecipient. The two parties shall agree
upon the termination conditions, including the effective date and in the case
of partial termination, the portion to be terminated, or
(2) By the Subrecipient upon submitting written notification to the City. The
written notification must set forth the reasons for the termination, the
effective date, and in the case of partial termination, the portion to be
terminated. However, in the case of a proposed partial termination, the City
may terminate the award in its entirety if the City determines that the
remaining portion will not accomplish the purpose for which the award was
made.
(C) Termination for Withdrawal, Reduction or Limitation of Funding
In the event that funding from the Federal government is withdrawn, reduced or
limited in any way after the effective date of this Agreement, and prior to its normal
completion, the City may summarily terminate this Agreement as to the funds
reduced or limited, notwithstanding any other termination provision of this
Agreement. If the level of funding so reduced or limited is so great that the City of
ILI
Fort Collins deems that the continuation of the program covered by the Agreement is
no longer in the best interest of the public, the City may summarily terminate this
Agreement in whole notwithstanding any other termination provisions of this
Agreement. Termination under this Section shall be effective upon receipt of written
notice by the Subrecipient or its representative.
Upon termination of this Agreement, in whole or in part for any reason including
completion of the project, the following provisions shall apply:
(A) Upon written request by the Agency, the City shall make or arrange for payment to
the Subrecipient of allowable reimbursable costs not covered by previous payments;
(B) The Subrecipient shall submit within thirty (30) days after the date of expiration of
this Agreement, all financial, performance and other reports required by this
Agreement, and in addition, will cooperate in a program audit by the City or its
designee,
(C) Closeout of funds will not occur unless all requirements of 24 CFR 92.507 and all
outstanding issues with the general contractor and or subcontractor have been
resolved to the satisfaction of the City
If either party to this Agreement initiates any legal or equitable action to enforce the
terms of this Agreement, to declare the rights of the parties under this Agreement, or which
relates to this Agreement in any manner, the City and the Subrecipient agree that the proper
venue for such action is the Larimer County, Colorado, District Court. It is mutually
understood and agreed that this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of
Colorado, both as to interpretation and performance.
It is understood and agreed by the parties that if any part, term, or provision of this
Agreement is held by the courts to be illegal or in conflict with any law of the state where
made, the validity of the remaining portions or provisions shall not be affected, and the
rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced as if the Agreement did
not contain the particular part, term, or provision held to be invalid.
This Agreement with any attachments, and the Subrecipient's corresponding
application for the City's Competitive Process, incorporated by reference, constitute the
entire agreement between the parties and both parties acknowledge that there are no other
agreements, written or oral, that have not been fully set forth in the text of this Agreement.
