submit or secure the City’s approval of the required insurance policies, certificates or endorsements 
prior to the City’s agreement that work may commence shall not waive the Consultant’s obligations 
to obtain and verify insurance coverage as otherwise provided in this Section.  
Consultant’s failure to obtain, submit or secure the City’s approval of the required insurance policies,

Subconsultant’s breach of this warranty shall be deemed a material breach of the Agreement and may result 
in the termination of the Agreement by the City under the terms of this Agreement. The City retains the legal 
right to randomly inspect the papers and records of the other party to ensure that the other party is complying

6 
01/28/2025
