RECITALS
The following agreement, along with its supporting addendum, provides the framework
for a collaborative effort between the Red Cross and the City and the School to provide
emergency support for disaster displaced members of our community.
The parties hereto desire to reach an understanding that will result in making certain
facilities and equipment from the City and the School available to the Red Cross for the
aforesaid use. Now, therefore, it is mutually agreed between parties as follows:
1. The City and the School agree that, after meeting its emergency responsibilities to
its staff, it will permit, to the extent of its ability and upon request by Red Cross,
use of predesignated facilities identified in Addendum #1, as temporary mass care
sites to victims of disasters or service delivery sites to provide support for the
victims of disasters.
2. Red Cross and the City and the School agree to provide, and periodically update
the facilities and point of contact information with each other.
The Red Cross agrees, when normal communications methods are possible, to
follow the notification procedures outlined in Addendum #2, when it needs to
establish a Red Cross mass care or service delivery site at the listed facilities.
4. The City and the School agree that prior to releasing facilities for use by Red
Cross it will, to the extent reasonably feasible, evaluate the facilities and secure
any valuable property not required for its normal operations.
Red Cross agrees that it will exercise reasonable care in the conduct of its
activities in such facilities and when provided with documented inventory and
cost information, further agrees to replace or reimburse the City and the School
for any supplies used during the support operation.

6. Upon termination of its use of the facilities, the Red Cross agrees to leave the
premises in their original condition.
7. Red Cross agrees to provide training to the appropriate members of the City and
the School staff in mass care and shelter operations.
8. The City and the School agrees that when their personnel are used in conjunction
with the American Red Cross personnel, the Red Cross policies, regulations and
procedures will be used to operate the site.
9. Use of the City and the School personnel, as Red Cross volunteers will be based
on a mutual agreement between the individual, Red Cross and the City and the
School.
10. Should any of the City and the School's facilities be used for food preparation or
as a cafeteria, the City and the School's appointed representative shall be present
to assist in the supervision and the use of the equipment, food and supplies by the
Red Cross. The Red Cross agrees to replace or reimburse the City and the School
at its option for any foods or supplies belonging to City and the School that may
be used by Red Cross.
11. Should Red Cross request that staff of the City and the School be officially
assigned to the operation, any agreement for financial reimbursement must be
reached between the Red Cross Job Director and the City and the School within
48 hours of the request.
12. A designee of Red Cross and the City and the School will meet periodically to
evaluate the necessity for the continuation of operations and to resolve any other
operational concerns.
13. Should the City and the School request that the operation be relocated, before the
end of the Red Cross requirements for operations, Red Cross agrees to relocate
the facility within 48 hours of the Red Cross and local government locating a
suitable alternate site. It is understood that it is a local government responsibility
to facilitate the transportation of victims when shelter relocation is required.
14. Notwithstanding any other agreements, the American Red Cross agrees to defend,
hold harmless, and indemnify the City and the School against any legal liability in
respect to bodily injury, death, and property damage arising from the negligence
of the said chapter during its use of any property belonging to the said City and
the School.
15. Notwithstanding any other agreements, City and the School agrees to defend, hold
harmless, and indemnify the American Red Cross against any legal liability in
respect to bodily injury, death and property damage arising from the negligence of
the said entity during its use of any property belonging to the Red Cross.
