Monthly Report
March 2022
This report includes incidents that occurred throughout Columbia Township and the Village of
Breedsville. This month was busier with 55 total complaints taken by deputies in Columbia Township. In
March, there were quite a bit of drug arrests throughout Columbia Township. In the 50000 block of
County Road 388, there was a breaking and entering of a residence. There are a couple of suspects in
mind; however, no one has been arrested as of today. There were only 2 incidents in the Village of
Breedsville. A couple of people were attempting to get into the condemned residence on North Pine
Street. The responding deputy advised them to leave as they were former tenants there. There was an
unknown person who went into the Breedsville post office after hours and destroyed some property.
If anyone has any information on criminal activity, it can be reported directly to me or the Van Buren
County Central Dispatch at 269-657-3101.
Other complaints I was dispatched to were traffic crashes and assists to other deputies outside of Columbia
Township.
Attached below are the monthly stats for different events and complaints that come in to VBC Dispatch
and to the department cell phone. Thank you for you time.

2207B (05/21) PERFORMANCE RESOLUTION FOR
MUNICIPALITIES
This Performance Resolution (Resolution) is required by the Michigan Department of Transportation for
purposes of issuing to a Municipality an ''Individual Permit for Use of State Highway Right of Way'', and/or
an ''Annual Application and Permit for Miscellaneous Operations within State Highway Right of Way''.
RESOLVED WHEREAS, the Village of Breedsville
(County, City, Village, Township, etc.)
hereinafter referred to as the ''MUNICIPALITY,'' periodically applies to the Michigan Department of
Transportation, hereinafter referred to as the "DEPARTMENT," for permits, referred to as ''PERMIT,'' to
construct, operate, use and/or maintain utilities or other facilities, or to conduct other activities, on, over, and
under State Highway Right of Way at various locations within and adjacent to its corporate limits;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the DEPARTMENT granting such PERMIT, the MUNICIPALITY
agrees that:
1. Each party to this R e s o lu t io n shall remain responsible for any claims arising out of their own acts and/or
omissions during the performance of this R e s o lu tio n , as provided by law. This R e s o l u t io n is not
intended to increase either party's liability for, or immunity from, tort claims, nor shall it be interpreted,
as giving either party hereto a right of indemnification, either by Agreement or at law, for claims arising
out of the performance of this Agreement.
2. If any of the work performed for the MUNICIPALITY is performed by a contractor, the MUNICIPALITY shall
require its contractor to hold harmless, indemnify and defend in litigation, the State of Michigan, the
DEPARTMENT and their agents and employee’s, against any claims for damages to public or private
property and for injuries to person arising out of the performance of the work, except for claims that result
from the sole negligence or willful acts of the DEPARTMENT, until the contractor achieves final acceptance
of the MUNICIPALITY Failure of the MUNICIPALITY to require its contractor to indemnify the
DEPARTMENT, as set forth above, shall be considered a breach of its duties to the DEPARTMENT.
3. Any work performed for the MUNICIPALITY by a contractor or subcontractor will be solely as a contractor
for the MUNICIPALITY and not as a contractor or agent of the DEPARTMENT. The DEPARTMENT shall
not be subject to any obligations or liabilities by vendors and contractors of the MUNICIPALITY, or their
subcontractors or any other person not a party to the PERMIT without the DEPARTMENT’S specific prior
written consent and notwithstanding the issuance of the PERMIT. Any claims by any contractor or
subcontractor will be the sole responsibility of the MUNICIPALITY.
4. The MUNICIPALITY shall take no unlawful action or conduct, which arises either directly or indirectly out
of its obligations, responsibilities, and duties under the PERMIT which results in claims being asserted
against or judgment being imposed against the State of Michigan, the Michigan Transportation Commission,
the DEPARTMENT, and all officers, agents and employees thereof and those contracting governmental
bodies performing permit activities for the DEPARTMENT and all officers, agents, and employees
thereof, pursuant to a maintenance contract. In the event that the same occurs, for the purposes of the
PERMIT, it will be considered as a breach of the PERMIT thereby giving the State of Michigan, the
DEPARTMENT, and/or the Michigan Transportation Commission a right to seek and obtain any necessary
relief or remedy, including, but not by way of limitation, a judgment for money damages.
5. The MUNICIPALITY will, by its own volition and/or request by the DEPARTMENT, promptly restore and/or
correct physical or operating damages to any State Highway R ight of Way resulting from the
installation construction, operation and/or maintenance of the MUNICIPALITY’S facilities according to a
PERMIT issued by the DEPARTMENT.

MDOT 2207B (05/21)
Page 2 of 2
6. With respect to any activities authorized by a PERMIT, when the MUNICIPALITY requires insurance on
its own or its contractor's behalf it shall also require that such policy include as named insured the State
of Michigan, the Transportation Commission, the DEPARTMENT, and all officers, agents, and employees
thereof and those governmental bodies performing permit activities for the DEPARTMENT and all
officers, agents, and employees thereof, pursuant to a maintenance contract.
7. The incorporation by the DEPARTMENT of this Resolution as part of a PERMIT does not prevent the
DEPARTMENT from requiring additional performance security or insurance before issuance of a
PERMIT.
8. This Resolution shall continue in force from this date until cancelled by the MUNICIPALITY or the
DEPARTMENT with no less than thirty (30) days prior written notice provided to the other party. It
will not be cancelled or otherwise terminated by the MUNICIPALITY with regard to any PERMIT which has
already been issued or activity which has already been undertaken.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the following position(s) are authorized to apply to the DEPARTMENT for
the necessary permit to work within State Highway Right of Way on behalf of the MUNICIPALITY.

agrees to pay Engineer, all in accordance with the terms of this PSA.
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AND SCOPE OF SERVICES: The description of the Project (“Project”) and the scope of services (“Services”) provided
under this PSA is as follows: General Consultation services.
AGREEMENT DOCUMENTS: All obligations covered under this PSA are governed by the Agreement Documents, which specifically include this PSA
and all of the following documents, which are all incorporated herein by reference: Engineer’s proposals as approved by the Owner on a project-by-
project basis.
COMPENSATION OF ENGINEER: This contract is an Hourly Fee contract plus 1.1 times reimbursable expenses. Authorized additional services will be

within fifteen (15) calendar days of presentation of the invoice. Invoices shall be past due fifteen (15) calendar days after presentation, and shall then
incur interest at the rate of 7% per annum, or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is lower. Reimbursable expenses include the cost of
subconsultants.
PAYMENT. If Owner fails to make any payment when due, Engineer may suspend performance of Services hereunder until all past due amounts and
accrued interest are paid. Engineer shall have no liability of any type as a result of suspension of services caused by Owner’s failure to pay. The
suspension of Services shall not limit any other remedy available to Engineer.
If Owner objects to any portion of an invoice, Owner shall notify Engineer in writing within seven (7) calendar days of presentation. Owner shall identify
the disputed charges and shall pay when due that portion of the invoice not in dispute. If the disputed amount of the invoice is resolved in Engineer’s
favor and not paid by the invoice due date, interest as stated in the agreement shall be paid by Owner on the disputed amount from the original due
date.
The Owner’s Payment of Engineer’s invoices shall not be subject to any right of setoff, and payment shall be due regardless of suspension or
termination of this Agreement by either party. If any payment obligation is not paid when due, Owner agrees to pay all costs of the collection, including
actual attorney’s fees through all levels of appeal, whether or not a legal proceeding for collection is commenced as part of the collection process.
OWNER REPRESENTATIVE. The Owner’s representative for this Project shall be Village President who shall have complete actual authority on
behalf of the Owner and its governing body to make all decisions in connection with the PSA.
OWNER RESPONSIBILITIES. The Owner shall timely furnish, at the Owner's expense, all information, requirements, reports, data, surveys and
instructions required by this Agreement. The Engineer may use such information, requirements, reports, data, surveys and instructions in performing its
services and is entitled to rely upon the accuracy and completeness thereof. The Engineer shall not be held responsible for any errors or omissions that
may arise as a result of erroneous or incomplete information provided by the Owner and/or the Owner's Engineers and contractors.
CHANGES. For all services that were completed due to changes to the Description of the Project and/or the Scope of Services, Engineer shall be paid
by Owner on an hourly basis at Engineer’s customary hourly rates, plus 1.1 times reimbursable expenses, unless otherwise negotiated. If the
construction period extends beyond the contracted period in the Scope of Services or the contracted completion date, all services of Engineer thereafter
shall continue to be performed and shall be paid by Owner on an hourly basis plus 1.1 times reimbursable expenses. Owner understands and accepts
that field techniques and analytical capabilities are evolving and that the standards and regulations are subject to rapid change such that currently
acceptable investigative approaches and techniques may become superseded after the time of the signing of this PSA. Such changes will constitute
changed conditions requiring adjustment in the Services and Engineer’s Compensation.
DELAYS. Engineer shall not be responsible to Owner for any delay of any type or kind unless caused in whole by Engineer.
CONSULTANTS. Engineer may engage Consultants and subcontractors to perform, in its sole discretion, all or any portion of the Services.

cost estimates provided by Engineer are based on Engineer’s experience and are considered opinions of probable cost. Engineer does not warrant the
accuracy of any cost estimate. If project costs exceed the Owner’s expectations and the Owner decides to re-design or re-bid any or all portions of the
Work, all re-design, re-bid or other services provided by Engineer shall be paid by Owner on an hourly basis at Engineer’s customary hourly rates, plus
1.1 times reimbursable expenses.
INDEMNITY. Owner indemnifies, defends and holds harmless Engineer and its agents, consultants and employees, from and against any claim, injury,
damage, cost, expense or liability, regardless of the legal theory, including actual attorneys’ fees, whether arising before, during or after completion of
Services performed under the PSA, caused by, arising out of, resulting from or occurring in connection with the performance of the Services or any
activity associated with the Services, whether or not caused in part by the active or passive negligence or other fault of Engineer excepting only injury to
person or damage to property caused by the sole negligence of Engineer. In the case of claims against Engineer or any of its consultants, agents or
employees by anyone for whose acts Owner may be liable, this indemnification obligation shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount
or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable under workers’ compensation acts and/or disability benefit acts. This indemnity includes, but is
not limited to, any claims resulting from interpretation of or changes to the documents prepared as a result of this PSA. This indemnity survives
termination of this PSA.
In addition to the indemnity provided herein by Owner, Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless Engineer and its officers, directors, partners, agents,
employees and consultants from and against any and all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of

claim, injury, damage, cost, expense or liability, arising out of or relating to the Services provided by Engineer for the Project, provided that any such
claim, cost, loss, or damage is attributable to bodily injury, sickness, disease, or death, or injury to or destruction of tangible property other than the work
itself, but only to the extent caused solely by any negligent act or omission of Engineer or Engineer’s officers, directors, partners, employees or
consultants.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, a party’s total liability to the other party under the terms and conditions of this PSA including any indemnity, as well
as to anyone claiming by, through or under the other party, for any cost, loss, or damages caused in part by the negligence of the party and in part by
the negligence of the other party, and any other negligent entity or individual, shall not exceed the percentage share that the party’s negligence bears to
the total negligence of all of the responsible parties.
PERFORMANCE STANDARDS. The Engineer shall perform its services consistent with the professional skill and care ordinarily provided by other
engineers performing similar services in the same or similar locality under the same or similar circumstances. The Engineer shall perform its services as
expeditiously as is consistent with such skill and care and the orderly progress of the Project.
MUNICIPAL ADVISOR. Engineer’s services do not include (1) serving as a “municipal advisor” for purposes of the registration requirements of Section
975 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (2010) or the municipal advisor registration rules issued by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, or (2) advising Owner, or any municipal entity or other person or entity, regarding municipal financial products or the issuance of
municipal securities, including advice with respect to the structure, timing, terms, or other similar matters concerning such products or issuances.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Engineer shall not be liable for any claim, damage, cost, expense or other liability not caused by negligent acts, errors or
omissions of Engineer. The total liability of Engineer under any legal theory whatsoever, in the aggregate, as well as any claimed liability of Engineer’s
officers, directors, employees, or agents or consultants, for any claims arising out of the PSA, shall not exceed the fees actually paid by the Owner for
the particular Service which forms the basis of the claimed liability.
Engineer makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the Services under the PSA, and disclaims any liability for implied warranties of any
type or kind, including but not limited to implied warranties of fitness or merchantability, and disclaims any liability for special or consequential damages
of any type or kind. Within these limitations, Engineer shall not be liable in any way for errors, omissions or negligence unless caused by the sole and
exclusive negligence of Engineer. For all PSAs which involve multiple projects or general consultations, or various services for various projects over a
period of time, liability shall not exceed the fee actually paid by the Owner for the particular Services on the specific Project or consultation or
assignment which forms the basis of the claimed liability and any statute of limitations shall commence upon the completion of the task giving rise to the
claim, not the last unrelated service provided under the PSA for general consultation services. To the extent that Engineer may be found liable under
the terms of this paragraph, and only to such extent, Engineer’s liability shall not exceed the percentage share of Engineer’s responsibility.
INSURANCE. Upon Owner’s request, Engineer will furnish Owner with a written statement of insurance coverage. No oral representations regarding
insurance shall be binding.
SITE ACCESS. Owner shall be solely responsible for obtaining all site access, easements, and permission from third party property owners for
Engineer to access the site to perform the Services herein. Owner is solely responsible for any claims arising from the disturbance of surface or
subsurface soil or water conditions caused by the performance of Engineer’s Services, excepting damages caused by the sole negligence of Engineer.
Engineer will take reasonable precautions to avoid damage to underground structures and utilities. Owner indemnifies Engineer from any damage
caused by or to underground structures and utilities not called to Engineer’s attention, all in accordance with the indemnity provisions herein. Owner
shall provide Engineer with a list of all known hazardous substances on site and a list of protective measures in case of exposure, all in compliance with
the current Federal, State and Local Right to Know laws and Federal Hazard Communication Standards.
SHOP DRAWINGS AND SUBMITTALS. If shop drawing or submittal review is part of the Services Engineer provides, Engineer will review the shop
drawings and submittals only for conformance with the design concept of the project and compliance with the Contract Documents. Unless specifically
indicated in writing, this PSA does not include the preparation of record drawings.
REJECTION OF WORK. In the event that the Scope of Services includes construction phase services in the form of site observation, then Engineer
shall have the authority to reject any work which is not, in the judgment of the Engineer, in conformance with the Contract Documents, Plans and
Specifications. Neither this authority nor Engineer’s good faith judgment to reject or not reject any work shall subject Engineer to any liability or cause of
action to any contractor, subcontractor, supplier, or Owner on the Project.
SPREAD OF CONTAMINATION. Owner understands and agrees that Engineer shall not be responsible for any claims or damages which may arise as
a result of or from the spread of contamination caused by drilling, sampling or any other activity unless such spread or contamination is substantially
caused by the negligence of Engineer. To the extent that Engineer may be found liable under the terms of this Paragraph, and only to such extent,
Engineer’s liability shall not exceed the percentage share of Engineer’s responsibility.
FAILURE TO ENCOUNTER HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. Owner understands that the failure to discover hazardous materials does not guarantee that;
(1) hazardous materials do not exist at the project site, and/or (2) that a non-contaminated site may later become contaminated. Although Engineer will
use reasonable care and a level of skill ordinarily exercised by members of the profession currently practicing in the city, municipality or political
subdivision where the Project is located under similar conditions, Owner agrees that Engineer shall not be responsible for the failure to detect the
presence of hazardous materials through techniques and practices commonly used for those purposes.
PERMITS AND APPROVALS. Unless otherwise specifically stated in the Scope of Services, obtaining permits and approvals for the Project is the
responsibility of the Owner. For an additional fee, Engineer may assist the Owner provided the assistance shall consist of completing and submitting
forms as to the results of certain work included in the Scope of Services and the assistance does not include special studies, special research,
attendance at meetings with public authorities, special testing or special documentation not normally required for similar projects. If Engineer
participates in any way with any permitting process, Engineer provides no guaranty or warranty that any permits or approvals will be provided. Owner
shall pay Engineer for all fees and reimbursable expenses under this PSA regardless of the outcome of approval or denial of permits or other approvals.
ADA AND CODE COMPLIANCE. The Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) provides that alterations to a facility must be made in such a manner
that, to the maximum extent feasible, the altered portions of the facility are accessible to persons with disabilities. The Owner acknowledges that the
requirements of the ADA will be subject to various and possibly contradictory interpretations. To the extent applicable, the Engineer will use its
reasonable professional efforts and judgment to interpret applicable ADA requirements and other federal, state and local laws, rules, codes, ordinances
P18021 Village of Breedsville General Consultation PSA 2
Page 21 of 26
and regulations as they may apply to the Project. The Engineer does not warrant or guarantee that the Project will comply with all interpretations of the
ADA requirements and/or the requirements of other federal, state and local codes, rules, laws, ordinances and regulations as they may apply to the
Project. Owner shall pay Engineer its customary hourly fees plus 1.1 times reimbursable expenses for any design changes made necessary by newly
enacted laws, codes and regulations, or changes to any existing laws, codes or regulations after the date that this PSA is last signed by the parties.
WAIVER. No delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy and a waiver
on any one (1) occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision of the agreement on
a future occasion. No waiver by Engineer of any breach by Owner of a provision of this PSA shall be deemed a waiver of any other provision hereof or
of any subsequent breach by Owner of such provision.
ENFORCEABILITY. This agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
SEVERABILITY. In the event that any one (1) or more provisions contained in the agreement shall be declared invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of the agreement shall not be affected or impaired.
OWNERSHIP OF INSTRUMENTS OF SERVICE. Engineer’s documents prepared pursuant to this PSA, including those in electronic format, are
instruments of service. All reports, plans, specifications, computer files, field data, notes and other documents prepared by Engineer as instruments of
service shall remain the property of Engineer. Engineer shall retain all common law, statutory and other reserved rights, including the copyright thereto
and all other intellectual property rights. Owner shall not use or permit the use of said documents on any other project. Owner fully indemnifies Engineer
against any and all claims for unauthorized use.
TERMINATION: This PSA may be terminated by either party upon seven (7) calendar days’ written notice. Upon termination, Engineer shall be paid by
Owner for all Services performed up to the notice of termination, as well as all costs necessary to demobilize from the site.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION: In the event of a dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the services to be rendered hereunder, the Owner and
the Engineer agree to attempt to resolve such disputes in the following manner: First, the parties agree to attempt to resolve such disputes through direct
negotiations between the appropriate representatives of each party. Second, if such negotiations are not fully successful, the parties agree to attempt to
resolve any remaining dispute through mediation using a mediator agreed upon between both parties. Owner and Engineer agree to participate in the
mediation process in good faith. The process shall be conducted on a confidential basis, and shall be completed within 120 days. If such mediation is
unsuccessful in resolving a Dispute, then the parties may (1) mutually agree to a dispute resolution of their choice, or (2) either party may seek to have
the Dispute resolved by a court of competent jurisdiction. The venue for a court resolution will be Kent County, Michigan.

upon Engineer unless agreed to in writing signed by an authorized representative of Engineer, and Engineer expressly rejects all such additional or
contrary terms as may be contained in Owner’s documents. The terms in this PSA will have precedence over any other terms expressed by the Owner’s
authorization process such as a purchase order. Engineer’s performance is conditioned on Owner’s unmodified consent exclusively to this PSA.
Engineer shall have the right to correct any errors, whether clerical or mathematical, which are contained in this PSA. Unless otherwise specifically
indicated in writing or otherwise required by law and paid for by Owner, there are no Performance or Payment bonds required on this Project. This PSA

laws of the State of Michigan. This contract sets forth the entire agreement between Engineer and Owner. This is a fully integrated contract.
