COST SHARING AGREEMENT
This Cost Sharing Agreement (the "Agreement") is made effective as of this 18th day of
April, 2024, by and between Mid-America Regional Council ("MARC") and the city of Riverside,
MO (the "Participant").
WITNESSETH
WHEREAS, the Kansas City Metropolitan Region Imagery Project (the "Project") is a
project that involves the acquisition of orthophotography, (the "Orthos") and its corresponding
metadata, and a Digital Elevation Model for areas in the Kansas City Metropolitan Region (the
"Region"). The Project has been established by KC MetroGlS (the "Committee"), a committee
of GIS professionals established by MARC;
WHEREAS, the Committee has identified that an overall reduced cost will be achieved
pursuant to economies of scale if the governmental agencies in the Region work together for a
consolidated purchase of the Orthos where possible;
WHEREAS, cost sharing measures have been applied to distribute the overall cost of the
Orthos between the various agencies participating in the Project (the "Participating Agencies");
WHEREAS, The Committee determined that a sub-group of members will act as the
steering committee (the "Imagery Workgroup") for the development of standards, selection of
vendors and discussing issues relating to the Project, and that the Imagery Workgroup will be
defined as:
1. Representatives from jurisdictions across the MARC region, including
Leavenworth and Wyandotte Counties in Kansas, and Jackson, Platte and Clay
Counties in Missouri.
2. Mid-America Regional Council
WHEREAS, MARC is coordinating the contract and administration of the Project; and
WHEREAS, this Agreement contains the key points that all Participating Agencies agree
to in the preparation, distribution and payment of the Orthos that are acquired through the
Project.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein, and intending to be
legally bound hereby, MARC and Participant agree as follows:
1. Services. Pursuant to the Contract for Professional Services (the "Contract") for
Orthos, between MARC and Surdex Corporation, dated January 23, 2024, (the "Contractor"),
included as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference, the Contractor and/or its
subcontractors identified in Exhibit A will prepare the Orthos. MARC shall act as the
1
coordinating agency to administer the terms pursuant to this Agreement and the Contract. At
all times, MARC shall act in the best interest of the Participating Agencies.
2. Payment for Services. As compensation for the Services provided by the
Contractor for the benefit of Participant relating to the Orthos, the Participant agrees to pay an
amount not to exceed $374.95 (the "Services Fee") to MARC. The amount is based on (a) an
estimate of the number of Participating Agencies, (b) the cost matrix provided by the
Contractor in their proposals, and (c) the sharing of services and area between participants. To
cover the costs of contract management and administration, MARC is including an
Administrative Fee to the Services Fee. The Services Fee shall be transferred to MARC within
forty-five (45) days upon receipt of an invoice from MARC and the execution of this Agreement.
The Services Fee will be kept by MARC in a designated fund that will be used to pay for the
Orthos and any other expenses incurred by MARC pursuant to this Agreement or the Contract.
In the event of a change in the number of Participating Agencies that agree to contribute to the
Project after the execution of this Agreement, the Services Fee shall be recalculated and
adjusted accordingly. At the conclusion of the Project, MARC will return to the Participant any
remaining portion of the Services Fee not paid to the Contractor as provided in this Agreement.
a. The Services Fee for the Participant, is the raw cost to fly the Orthos within the
Participant requested area. A MARC Administrative Fee is included for all
services.
3. Review and Approval of the Orthos. Each participating county, Kansas City
Missouri, and members of the Imagery Workgroup, (collectively, the "Reviewers", and
individually, a "Reviewer") shall review all Orthos relating to the Project. Each Reviewer will
receive the Orthos within its jurisdictional boundaries directly from the Contractor. Each Ortho
Reviewer will review the Orthos pursuant to their respective quality control procedures and
coordinate between any Participating Agencies that have overlapping boundaries. Orthos that
do not adhere to the quality standards described in the Contract or the quality control
standards of the respective Reviewers will be handled according to the Contract.
4. Payments to Contractor. MARC will pay invoices from the Contractor for Services ,
rendered on a monthly basis, with ten (10) percent retained until all deliverables and services
described in the Contract (the "Products") receive final approval from all of the Reviewers.
Once a Reviewer completes its review and notifies the Contractor that all its respective
Products are satisfactory, such Reviewer will also simultaneously notify MARC in writing. Once
such notification has been received by MARC from all Reviewers, MARC will pay the retained
amount in full to the Contractor within thirty (30) days.
5. Receipt of Images and Data. After final approval and receipt of the Orthos and
any derivatives by each Reviewer, the Reviewer or MARC (if designated by the Participant) will
deliver images to each Participating Agency within its boundaries according to a method agreed
to by a majority of the Participating Agencies.
2
6. Ownership, Access and Distribution of Orthos. Each Participating Agency will
have ownership of the Orthos and within their jurisdictional boundaries and for areas outside
their boundaries for which they have also agreed to share costs with overlapping jurisdiction(s).
In cases where Participating Agencies have overlapping boundaries, such Participating Agencies
will jointly own the Orthos and will make a good faith effort to agree on a consistent price and
criteria for selling or otherwise distributing the Orthos. Each Participating Agency will have
access to the Orthos outside of their jurisdictional boundary for internal use only, but will not
have ownership of such Orthos or be allowed to sell or otherwise distribute the Orthos in any
manner, the only exceptions being those mentioned above where a participating agency agreed
to share costs for areas outside their jurisdictional boundaries. The Participating Agencies may
print a hard copy or PDF of any Orthos within their jurisdictional boundaries and may sell or
otherwise distribute the Orthos according to each agency's currently adopted policy. Each
Participating Agency will remain the point of distribution for the Orthos within its jurisdictional
boundaries and may collect and retain any consideration from any sale or other distribution of
such data.
7. MARC's Receipt and Use of Orthos. Participant agrees that MARC will receive a
copy of the Orthos for use in its role as the Region's Metropolitan Planning Organization and
Council of Governments. After each Reviewer gives final approval of its respective Orthos,
MARC will receive a copy of that Reviewer's Orthos directly from the Contractor. MARC may
print a hard copy or export a PDF or non-georeferenced JPEG of any Ortho within the Region
and may sell or otherwise distribute according to its currently adopted policy; provided,
however, that MARC will not sell or distribute digital copies of the original Orthos. MARC
understands that it is the intent of this Agreement that each Participating Agency will remain
the primary point of distribution for the Orthos within its jurisdictional boundaries.
8. Limitation of Liability. Participant hereby acknowledges that MARC is
administering the Project for the purpose of providing a benefit to the Participating Agencies.
To the extent permitted by law, PARTICIPANT HEREBY AGREES THAT MARC AND ITS AFFILIATES
SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR ANY CLAIMS OF ANY NATURE WHETHER SUCH
CLAIMS ARE BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, TORT(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE),
STRICT LIABILITY, INDEMNIFICATION, STATUTE, ANY OTHER CAUSE OR COMBINATION OF
CAUSES, OR OTHERWISE ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE
CONTRACT OR THE SERVICES PROVIDED THEREUNDER.
9. Audit. If the parties disagree as to the determination of the Services Fee, they
shall jointly retain an independent certified public accountant to make the determination,
which shall be jointly binding on them. The parties shall split evenly the expenses of making the
determination, except that if the accountant concludes that either party had been
unreasonable, such party shall bear the full expense of the determination.
10. Inspection of Books. Each party shall permit the other, upon reasonable request,
to inspect its books and records relevant to the determination of the Services Fee, the Orthos
obtained and payments to the Contractors.
3
11. Termination and Modification. This Agreement shall terminate immediately
upon: (a) the mutual consent of the parties; or (b) sixty (60) days' prior written notice by either
party.
12. Settlement Upon Termination. No later than ten (10) days after the end of the
month during which this Agreement is terminated for any reason, MARC shall deliver to
Participant a final invoice setting forth any amount due hereunder or any refund due to
Participant. Any amounts due and owing shall be paid to the other party within fifteen (15) days
of the date of the final invoice.
13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended only upon the parties' mutual
written consent signed by the parties.
14. Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned without the prior written
consent of the other party.
15. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted and enforced
