Diehl, Evans & Company
Su><umary of Waiver Requests
Contract Exceptions:
Section 8 — Hold Harmless
Request: Diehl, Evans & Company requests deletion of the following statement in the
first sentence:
"except such loss or damage which was caused by the sole negligence or willful
misconduct of CITY, CONSULTANT will conduct all defense at its sole cost and expense
and C,ITYshall approve selection ofCONSULTANT's counsel. "
Reason: The phrase "sole negligence or willful misconduction" appears to shield the
City from any liability if City official or employees were "partially" (but not solely)
negligent, or where the City was involved in misconduct, althought "not willful". The
firm does not customarily sign such agreements.
Insurance Waivers:
Section 9; Professional LiabiliCy Insurance
Request: Diehl, Evans & Company requests deletion of the following two sentences:
