All providers are subject to Law Enforcement Data System background checks and a $75 fingerprinting fee if unsupervised student contact is required. The contract incorporates Oregon Revised Statutes and the District's Public Contracting Rules, includes indemnification and hold harmless provisions protecting the District from provider negligence or breach, and requires payment within 30 days of receipt of properly completed invoices that include the contract number. The District retains the right to terminate the contract for convenience with 30 days' notice or for cause immediately upon specified breach conditions, and may suspend services at its sole discretion without prior notice if continuation is not in the District's best interests.

19. Waiver. No failure of either party to exercise any power given to it hereunder or to insist upon strict compliance by the other party with its obligations hereunder, and not custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms hereof, nor any payment under this Contract shall constitute a waiver of either party’s right to demand exact compliance with the terms hereof.

20. Suspension of Services. The District may suspend

Provider’s right/obligation to provide services without prior notice to the Provider, and at the sole discretion of District, in the event of a declared or de-facto condition which makes continued provision of the services to be not in the best interests of the District. The District will not be obligated to pay for services not provided.

21. Public Health Requirements. The Provider shall comply with any federal, state, county, District, and/or other public health authorities’ rules, requirements, procedures, and guidelines that are in effect during the term of the Contract.

24. Invoicing. Payment will be made within 30 days of receipt of a properly completed invoice for services delivered that includes the Contract number. Invoices will not be processed until services are delivered.
