(ii) For material breach of this Agreement by either party, where the other party fails in any material
way to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
a) Where Customer is in breach of this Agreement for non-payment of Fees to Verra
Mobility, Verra Mobility may exercise any or all of the following remedies: (1) provide
Customer written notice and ten (10) days to cure before suspending performance and
turning off the Camera Systems; (2) terminate this Agreement for cause where Customer's
account remains delinquent sixty (60) days after written notice; and (3) in addition to the
foregoing, seek any other available remedies at law or equity.
b) Termination under this Subsection 15.1(h) for any reason other than non-payment of Fees
by Customer is subject to the condition that the terminating party notifies the other party
of its intent to terminate, stating with reasonable specificity the grounds therefore, and the
other party fails to cure the default within forty-five (45) days after receiving written
notice.
(iii) In the event of termination by Verra Mobility under Subsection 15.1(ii) for breach by Customer
(including non-payment of Fees), Customer shall pay Verra Mobility an early termination fee based
on a price of $120,000 per Red Light Safety Camera System and $120,000 per Fixed Site School

the date the Camera System is first installed and operational. The amortization schedule for said
costs shall be reduced proportionally for each month each Camera System is or was installed.
(iv) Customer recognizes the substantial upfront costs Verra Mobility will incur to procure, provide
and install Camera Systems. Customer therefore agrees that any Camera Systems that Customer
authorizes through a Notice to Proceed shall remain installed and operational for the duration of
the term, unless otherwise mutually agreed. Verra Mobility will bill a restocking or standby fee for

Customer terminates or suspends a Notice to Proceed.
14.2 Upon termination of this Agreement, including because it has reached the end of its term, the parties
recognize that Customer will have to process Events in the "pipeline". Accordingly, the parties shall
take the following actions and shall have the following obligations, which survive termination during
the wind -down period:
(i) Customer shall cease using the Axsis System to capture Events.
(ii) Unless it is unlawful to do so, Verra Mobility will, for a period of ninety (90) days, continue to
process all Events captured before termination and provide all services associated with processing

such ninety (90) day period, Verra Mobility will terminate all use of the Axsis System for
Customer's Program and upon such termination, the Axsis System, including violationinfo.com
website, and related lockbox shall no longer be capable of accepting payments.
(iii) Except as provided for in Section 15.2(iv) related to the Infrastructure, Customer shall return or
allow Verra Mobility to recover all provided equipment within a reasonable time not to exceed
ninety (90) days.
(iv) Pursuant to Section 7, Customer shall be deemed to accept full ownership and control of the
Infrastructure. Upon Customer's request or if otherwise required by law, regulation, or
Page 8 of 22
administrative agency, and subject to the limitations set forth herein, Verra Mobility shall remove
the Infrastructure Verra Mobility installed in connection with Verra Mobility's performance of its
obligations under this Agreement for the actual cost of the removal (presently estimated at
approximately $5,000 per Approach) plus an additional 20% service fee (the "Removal Fee"). As
part of the services performed for the Removal Fee, Verra Mobility shall restore the surface of
Customer's property to substantially the same condition as such property was in immediately prior
to this Agreement, except for foundation removal, which shall be left approximately flush with
grade with no exposed bolts, or other hazards. Installed underground Infrastructure shall not be
required to be removed, and Customer shall accept and observe any and all duties, obligations, or
liabilities associated with the remaining foundation, conduit, or other below -grade Infrastructure.
14.3 In the event of termination by Verra Mobility for non-payment of Fees by Customer, Verra Mobility
shall cease processing Events as of the date of termination.

Verra Mobility and its employees, contractors, agents and servants will in no event be considered to be
employees, agents (other than in the limited capacity described herein), or servants of Customer. This
Agreement does not and shall not be interpreted as creating a general agency relationship between Verra
Mobility and Customer.
16. USE OF SUBCONTRACTORS:
From time to time, Verra Mobility may subcontract certain services provided under this Agreement without
notice to or consent of Customer. All subcontractors will act in a way consistent with Verra Mobility's
obligations under this Agreement.
17. DATA RETENTION:
Subject to litigation holds, court orders, changes in law, or other legal requirements applicable to Verra
Mobility, Verra Mobility shall maintain the categories of data set forth under the heading "Type of Record"
for the periods of time set forth under the heading "Minimum Verra Mobility Retention Period" on
EXHIBIT E during the term of this Agreement. Within one hundred -twenty (120) days of the later of the
termination of this Agreement or the termination of any wind -down period, Verra Mobility shall at its option
either (i) place the Violation Images, Non -Violation Images, Individually Identifiable Violation Records, and
Individually Identifiable Non -Violation Records (each as described on EXHIBIT E), not previously disposed
of in accordance with the data retention schedule at a secured location with SFTP access or (ii) provide

respect to such data.
18. ASSIGNMENT:
Neither party may assign all or any portion of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other,

Page 9 of 22
other corporate reorganizational purposes, Verra Mobility may sell, assign, transfer or convey any interest in
this Agreement in whole or in part without the written consent of Customer.
19. FORCE MAJEURE:
Neither party will be liable to the other or be deemed to be in breach of this Agreement for any failure or delay
in rendering performance arising out of causes beyond its reasonable control and without its fault or negligence.
Such causes may include but are not limited to, acts of God or the public enemy, terrorism, significant fires,
floods, earthquakes, hurricanes, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, unusually severe
weather, or governmental authorities approval delays which are not caused by any act or omission by the parties.
The party whose performance is affected agrees to notify the other promptly of the existence and nature of any
delay. For the avoidance of doubt, road construction within the control of the Customer is not an event of Force
Majeure. The term of the Agreement shall be extended by a period equal to that during which either party's
performance is suspended under this section, but in no event past six years from the start date.
20. TAXES:
At the time of execution of this Agreement, it is the understanding of the parties that Verra Mobility's services

CITY OF FEDERAL WAY
MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 12, 2021
TO: City Council Members
VIA: Jim Ferrell, Mayor
FROM: Andy J. Hwang, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: American Traffic Solutions/Verra Mobility Professional Service
Agreement Photo Enforcement Program
Financial Impacts:
Our existing program with American Traffic Solutions (ATS) is working well. We are
confident that the contract with ATS is appropriate and the fees are reasonable. The
reported revenues and fees are closely tracked by our Finance Department. With eleven
cameras currently installed, the program continues to be 100 percent violator funded.
Background Information:
Traffic safety is a high priority for the Police Department and through our Red -Light Photo
Enforcement (RLPE) program, we have been using traffic cameras with traffic control
devices at intersections and school zones. Through statistical data review, this technology
has shown the ability to improve and further enhance traffic safety in multiple locations
around the city.
The photo -enforced intersections and school zones were chosen by the Police Department as
the locations of the highest incidents of red-light running and school zone speeding. As
shown by the reduction of the number of traffic infractions over the life of the program, the
inference can be made that the photo enforcement program is having the desired effect —
drivers are slowing down in school zones and stopping at red lights at monitored
intersections. Good driving behavior, evidenced by motorists obeying traffic laws, is much
more prevalent with the onset of our photo enforcement program.
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) maintains that "A comprehensive approach to intersection safety
incorporates engineering, education, and enforcement countermeasures to prevent red-
light running and improve intersection safety. Red-light camera systems can be a very
effective countermeasure to prevent red-light running." (Red -Light Camera Systems
Operational Guidelines, FHWA, January 2005.) Photo enforcement technology does not
replace traditional methods of traffic enforcement. Rather, it serves as a supplement to
traditional traffic enforcement techniques, in addition to educational and engineering efforts
designed to enhance traffic safety. The Police Department will continue to measure and
Rev. 7/18
evaluate the effectiveness of the red-light photo enforcement program with regard to safety,
traffic flow, and motorist compliance with traffic control devices.

Our current Professional Services Agreement with ATS expires December 31, 2020. We
recommend council approval to enter into a new five-year contract with American Traffic
Solutions for a term that starts on 01-01-2021 and runs through 12-31-2025. This Agreement
would automatically extend for a subsequent one-year term; provided, however, that either
party may terminate this Agreement at the expiration of any term by providing written notice
of its intent not to extend the Agreement one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the
expiration of the then -current, making the contract persist until 12-31-2026.
Our RLPE program is achieving the desired voluntary compliance results we anticipated.
Below is an excerpt from 2019 traffic report. The statistics show that the number of
collisions has decreased when compared to years before the installation of cameras and when
compared to the first years of cameras in 2008 and 2009.
"The following data compares the number of collisions occurring in all RLPE intersections
prior to and after the implementation of the program.

M Because 2008 and 2009 were inception/expansion years for the program, the most accurate comparison is reflected
during the "fully operational" years of 2010 and later.
