BETWEEN
LAND BANK OF BLUE SPRINGS, MISSOURI
AND THE CITY OF BLUE SPRINGS, MISSOURI
THIS AGREEMENT, made as of this ______ day of____________, 202219 by and
between Land Bank of Blue Springs, Missouri, a public body corporate and politic, hereinafter
referred to as “Land Bank,” and the City of Blue Springs, Missouri, a constitutionally chartered
municipal corporation, hereinafter referred to as “City.”
WHEREAS, Revised Missouri Statutes Section 141.980Sec. 141.980 RSMo. et seq.
permitted the City to establish by ordinance a land bank agency for the management, sale,
transfer, and other disposition of interests in real estate owned by such land bank agency; and
WHEREAS, on March 4, 2013, the City passed Bill No. 4250, Ordinance No. 4429
establishing the Land Bank (“Authorizing Ordinance”); and
WHEREAS, the City and Land Bank entered into an Intergovernmental Cooperative
Agreement on August 5, 2013 and approved a new Intergovernmental Cooperative Agreement
on October 7, 2019; and
WHEREAS, a number of the properties within the City have become vacant, dilapidated,
and non-revenue generating; and
WHEREAS, some of the properties contain violations of health, nuisance and property
maintenance ordinances, contribute to the blight and deterioration of the City, and impose an
economic burden upon the City; and
WHEREAS, some of these properties will be transferred to the Land Bank; and
WHEREAS, some properties in the Neighborhood Improvement Districts (NIDs) within
the City have become or will become property of the Land Bank as a result of economic
downturns; and
WHEREAS, it is in the best interests of the health, safety, welfare and economic
viability of the citizens of City to efficiently and effectively support the Land Bank and to enter
into this Intergovernmental Cooperative Agreement to achieve that interest;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, Land
Bank and City agree as follows 1:
1. SCOPE OF AGREEMENT. This agreement outlines the terms and conditions by
which the City will support and undertake administrative and operational staffing,
and other services for the Land Bank. Specific operational policies and procedures

and Committees, Article IX, Blue Springs Land Bank Agency, Code of Ordinances, City of Blue
Springs, Missouri.
will be developed by the Land Bank to govern its operations, within the
limitations of the Authorizing Ordinance.
2. PAYMENT. On October 1, 202219, and on October 1 of each year thereafter that
this Agreement is in effect, the City's annual contribution, if any, will be
determined as a part of the City's budget process, and is not an ongoing
obligation, and is subject in all respects to appropriated funds. For the fiscal year
beginning October 1, 202219, and each fiscal year thereafter that this Agreement
remains in effect, the maximum amount that the City will budget for the
implementation, support, and operation of the Land Bank is an amount not to
exceed $10,000, allocated in accordance with the direction from the City
Administrator, as initially set forth in its budget for that fiscal year. The Land
Bank will adopt a line item budget in conformity with the final allocation
approved by the City, and thereafter will make modifications to such budget if
changes are made to appropriate funds, and are less than anticipated. The Land
Bank acknowledges that pursuant to Section 800.140 of the Authorizing
Ordinance, the City is not obligated to contribute amounts to the Land Bank's
annual budget, and that contributions or the incurring of expenses by the City on

Ordinance. Any amounts budgeted by the City for the benefit of the Land Bank
will be accounted for in a separate fund maintained by the City.
3. TERM. The term of this Agreement shall be for approximately three years,
commencing on the effective date of the City’s Resolution authorizing the
execution of this Agreement by the Mayor on behalf of the City, and terminating
on September 30, 20252, subject to sufficient appropriations by the City as set out
in Section 17 hereof. On or before June 1, 20252 the City will provide to the Land
Bank a list of proposed modifications, if any, for a renewal form of this
Agreement. Upon the Land Bank’s receipt of the proposed modifications, then the
Land Bank may prepare and provide to the City its proposed modifications by
September 1, 201252. Thereafter, the Land Bank and the City will enter into
negotiations for a renewal form of this Agreement. The goal for the parties in
those negotiations is to reach an agreement, if any, simultaneous with the
submission of the City‘s budget for the fiscal year commencing on October 1,
20252. The parties hereto agree that there may modifications during the term
hereof consistent with Section 8.
4. BASIC SERVICES. In consultation with the Land Bank, the City will allocate
and provide staff to serve as the Land Bank’s administrative and operational
personnel as needed to implement and support the Land Bank, subject to the
budget allocations. Pursuant to such consultation, the Land Bank will may from
time to time adopt resolutions appointing an executive director as recommended
by the City and delegate to such executive director such authority it deems
prudent and consistent with the Authorizing Ordinance, and the Land Bank’s own
bylaws and policies. Such core staff provided by the City shall initially include an
executive director, counsel, administrative assistants and code enforcement
Intergovernmental Agmt 2
officers, some of which will fill the positions only to the extent necessary to
accomplish the work needed. Beyond the core staff, additional City staff will
assist the Land Bank with additional functions, as assigned and coordinated by the
City Administrator with advice and support from the executive director Land
Bank as follows:
• Administrative and operational staffing for public contact, distribution and
process of application for purchase and donation of real properties, review and
evaluation of offers for suitability of acceptance, and marketing properties;
• Field task staffing for inspection, evaluation, cleaning and securing properties
in the Land Bank inventory or offered to the Land Bank, and ongoing
monitoring of Land Bank properties as to changes in conditions;
• Maintenance or demolition of properties, to the extent of available and
budgeted resources for that purpose, including mowing, cleaning, boarding,
demolition, and limited repair, however, the primary responsibility for such
maintenance will remain the liability of the Land Bank, and such an
undertaking of assistance by the City will not be deemed an assumption of any
liability for failure to maintain the Land Bank’s property; and
• Financial support activities, including, but not limited to, processing of
invoices, payments, receipt of funds, use of the City’s accounting system,
handling payroll of staff,
Such staff may have other duties as assigned by the City, and such duties shall not
be deemed to be a conflict of interest with their undertakings on behalf of the
Land Bank. The City agrees that all personnel costs associated with supporting
and staffing the Land Bank, including salaries and benefits, will be paid by the
City, and portions of that cost will be paid from the funds allocated by the budget
established by the City for the Land Bank, as affirmed by the line item budget of
the Land Bank.
Any amendments to the Land Bank Rules of Procedure shall be approved by the
City Council.
The Land Bank will separately contract with the City’s auditing firm for an
annual audit consistent with Section 800.140 of the Authorizing Ordinance.
5. CLAIM SERVICES. Subject to budget allocations from the City to the Land
Bank, for the term of this Agreement, for matters not otherwise covered by the
insurance, the City, through its Law Department, under the direction of the City
Attorney, hereby agrees to: a) handle the legal defense of all lawsuits for tort
claims filed in the State of Missouri against the Land Bank, in which the City is
not also a defendant, b) administer, evaluate and provide servicing of claims
against the Land Bank that have not yet been filed as law suits and provide legal
advice and assistance on claims once made to the Land Bank during the term of
this Agreement.
Intergovernmental Agmt 3
For those lawsuits in which both the City and Land Bank are named a party, in
which neither are covered by insurance, the Law Department will provide, as soon
as practical, to the Land Bank, in closed session, the circumstances as then
determined, that led to the claim, to enable the Land Bank to make an informed
knowledgeable decision whether to waive the conflict of interest to enable the
City Attorney to represent both the City and the Land Bank. The disclosure in
closed session will occur at the next Land Bank meeting after service of the
summons upon the lawsuit has been received by either the Land Bank or the City.
The City shall advise the Land Bank board of commissioners by expeditious
means, such as email, of the filing of any lawsuit to which the Land Bank is
named as a party; and such electronic notice will be given as soon as practical, but
not later than ten business days after receipt by the City of the summons in such
lawsuit. Similarly, each commissioner of the Land Bank who individually
receives a summons for any lawsuit related to their activities on behalf of the
Land Bank, shall advise the City by expeditious means, such as email, of the
filing of any lawsuit to which the commissioner is named as a party; and such
electronic notice will be given as soon as practical, but not later than ten business
days after receipt by such commissioner of the summons in such lawsuit.
In the event that the Land Bank does not have insurance and elects not to waive
the conflict of interest, and desires to retain its own outside counsel, it shall so
advise the City the earlier of i) five business days after the closed session in which
the City advises the Land Bank of the circumstances of the lawsuit, or ii) ten
business days before the answer on behalf of the City or the Land Bank needs to
be filed in response to such lawsuit. If the Land Bank elects to retain independent
counsel, then if requested by the Land Bank, the City will assist the Land Bank in
engaging counsel. If funds budgeted by the City for the benefit of the Land Bank
are proposed to be used for the purpose of retaining independent counsel, then the
City has the right to object to any counsel selected by the Land Bank, and
thereafter payment for such fees and services by the Land Bank will be limited to
sale proceeds generated by its inventory.
The Land Bank agrees to pay the City for such legal and investigative services
from its budgeted funds upon submission of invoices outlining those services. All
other actual expenses associated with defending claims, such as costs of
depositions and court reporters, preparation of trial exhibits, or outside counsel
whenever required, will be chargeable to the various case files and submitted to
the Land Bank for its payment.
The parties hereto agree that the City Attorney will have settlement authority up
to an amount of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) on all claims or cases where no
insurance is available to the Land Bank without the approval of the Land Bank
board, and may rely upon the Land Bank’s executive director’s verification of the
source of funding for such payment from the Land Bank’s budget.
Intergovernmental Agmt 4
6. TECHNOLOGY. Subject to the budget allocation, City shall provide access to an
integrated computer system and hardware to track Land Bank inventory. Land
Bank may enter into a contract for software, and software maintenance coverage,
and assure connectivity to the City’s computer system. City and Land Bank shall
make a reasonable effort to create an interface between the existing City tracking
software within the City’s provided system with the software obtained by the
Land Bank.
7. FACILITY and IMPROVEMENTS.
a. City will provide a portion of its facility at 903 W. Main Street in its
Administration Department to house the Land Bank operations, but may
relocate such operations if deemed necessary or convenient to the City to
other municipal facilities provided such alternative facilities are equally
accessible to the public.
b. City and Land Bank shall jointly participate in good faith in the
coordination and management of the space available to house the Land
Bank pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. All furnishings and
fixtures provided by the City for the Land Bank’s use shall remain the
property of the City. Reusable and recycled furnishings, equipment, or
supplies from existing City facilities may be utilized.
8. MODIFICATION. This Agreement shall not be amended, modified, or canceled
without the written consent of both parties to this Agreement. The Land Bank
Board of Commissioners and the City Administrator, or his their designee, shall
have authority to make modifications to the Agreement that do not change the
compensation to be paid by the Land Bank to the City, from budgeted funds from
the City allocated to the Land Bank operations, or affect the duration of the
Agreement.
9. DEFENSE AND INDEMNIFICATION. No party to this Agreement shall
assume any liability for the acts or omissions of any other party to this
Agreement, its officers or employees. However, City shall add the Land Bank as
an additional insured or add the Land Bank’s name by endorsement upon the
City’s comprehensive general liability coverage similarly to other boards,
commissions or entities affiliated with the City, and/or to which the Mayor or City
Council make appointments to the extent the City is able to do so under its policy
of insurance. The Land Bank acknowledges that the City is uninsured up to an
amount, with that amount being determined from time to time by the City’s risk
manager, upon the advice of its insurance consultant. The Land Bank will
maintain its own comprehensive general liability coverage, in at least an amount
of $500,000 combined single limit throughout the term of this Agreement. Both
the City and the Land Bank preserve their own separate sovereign immunity, and
acknowledge that such immunity will be asserted in any actions related to those
activities undertaken by City staff on behalf of the Land Bank, and that each will
submit claims to their respective policies, with rights of subrogation to the other’s
policy. To the extent permitted by law and subject to sufficient appropriations by
Intergovernmental Agmt 5
the City Council, and further the City’s obligations under this Section with respect
to this indemnification for acts or omissions, including negligence of the City
shall be limited to the coverage and limits of insurance maintained by the City,
the City will indemnify, defend and hold Land Bank harmless from any and all
claims, liabilities, damages and costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees
directly related thereto) including but not limited to bodily injury to or death of
any person and for damage to or destruction of property due to the actions or
omissions of the City employees providing services to the Land Bank.
10. ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement, or any part thereof, shall not be assigned
without the prior written consent of the City and/or the Land Bank. Any attempt
to assign without such consent shall be void and confer no rights on any third
parties.
11. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be construed and governed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri. The parties submit to the
jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Missouri and waive venue.
12. WAIVER. Waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement or any breach of
this Agreement shall not thereafter be deemed to be a consent by the waiving
party to any further waiver, modification or breach by the other party, whether
new or continuing, of the same or any other covenant, or breach by the party,
whether new or continuing, of the same or any other covenant, condition or
provision of this Agreement. Failure by one of the parties of this Agreement to
assert its rights for any breach of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of
such rights.
13. SEVERABILITY. If any covenant or other provision of this Agreement shall be
construed to be invalid, or incapable of being enforced, by reason of any rule of
law or public policy, all other provisions and conditions of this Agreement shall
nevertheless remain in full force and effect, and no covenant or provision shall be
deemed dependent upon any other covenant or provision unless so expressed
herein.
14. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. City and Land Bank warrant as to their respective
officers or employees of the City or Land Bank, whether elected or appointed,
shall not in any manner whatsoever be interested in or receive any benefit from
the profits or emoluments of this Agreement, except City employees may receive
their salaries, wages and benefits otherwise due them. Both the City and the Land
Bank will take such steps that are reasonable to assure that the conflicts of interest
and ethics provisions contained in Section 800.170 of the Authorizing Ordinance
are complied with by their respective employees or the individual commissioners
of the Land Bank.
15. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. City and Land Bank must comply with all

giving sixty days’ notice in writing to the other party.
b. If the Agreement is terminated by the Land Bank, the City will be paid for
all services and associated costs up to the date of termination, from
budgeted funds allocated by the City to the Land Bank, and any
unexpended budgeted amounts allocated by the City will revert to the
City. Subsequent to termination the Land Bank shall not have any right to
funds derived from or traceable back to the budget allocated by the City to
the Land Bank.
17. NON-APPROPRIATION. The parties recognize that City intends to satisfy its
financial obligation to Land Bank hereunder out of funds annually appropriated
