While functioning as a peace officer assigned to the Task Force, he or she shall have all of the law enforcement powers of a regular peace officer of such other political entity. A peace officer who is assigned, designated, or ordered by the official designated by the governing body of any entity to perform law enforcement duties as a member of the Task Force shall receive the same wage, salary, pension and all other compensation and all other rights for such service, including injury or death benefits and workers' compensation benefits, paid in accordance with the Texas Automobile Burglary and Theft Prevention Authority Grant Guidelines, as existing or as may be amended, and applicable law, as though the service had been rendered within the limits of the entity from which he or she was assigned.

Instead, they will be permitted to flex their work hours as necessary to accomplish Task Force objectives and assignments. In further recognition of the benefit to be gained by the entity participating in the Task Force, it is agreed that no entity that is a party to this Agreement shall receive or be entitled to reimbursement from another entity participating in this Agreement for any services performed pursuant to this Agreement. It is further agreed that, in the event that any peace officer assigned to the Task Force is cited as a party defendant to any civil lawsuit, state or federal, arising out of his or her official acts while functioning as a peace officer assigned to the Task Force, said peace officer shall be entitled to the same benefits that such officer would be entitled to receive had such civil action risen out of an official act within the scope of his or her duties as a member and in the jurisdiction of the law enforcement agency from which he or she was assigned. Further, no entity shall be responsible for the acts of a peace officer of another entity assigned to the Task Force. Each entity participating herein indemnifies and holds all other participating entities harmless for all acts of its own officers and employees acting hereunder, to the full extent permitted by law. GENERAL PROVISIONS This Contract is subject to all grant conditions applicable to the grant of the THE TARRANT REGIONAL AUTO CRIMES TASK FORCE INTERLOCAL ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT-PAGE 6 Texas Automobile Burglary and Theft Prevention Authority to the Tarrant Regional Auto Crimes Task Force. Each party to this Agreement expressly waives all claims against every other party for compensation for any loss, damage, personal injury, or death occurring as a consequence of the performance of this Agreement. Third party claims against members shall be governed by the Texas Tort Claims Act or other appropriate statutes and laws of the State of Texas and the United States. It is expressly understood and agreed that, in the execution of this Agreement, no party waives, nor shall be deemed hereby to waive, any immunity or defense that would otherwise be available to it against claims arising in the exercise of governmental powers and functions. The validity of this Agreement and of any of its terms or provisions, as well as the rights and duties of the parties hereunder, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision thereof and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. This Agreement shall become effective as to a party hereto on the day of the execution of the Agreement by the party, and shall continue in effect as to a participating entity for one year from the date of signature and thereafter until it has been terminated or rescinded by appropriate action of the participating entity's governing body, or expires due to termination of the grant or by operation of law. (To minimize the administrative difficulty of signature between the many parties, each city or THE TARRANT REGIONAL AUTO CRIMES TASK FORCE INTERLOCAL ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT-PAGE 7 other law enforcement entity will sign a substantially similar agreement with Tarrant County; however, each party signing substantially similar copies is immediately bound one to another to all other entities participating during the time said agreement is in force as to said entity, even though the parties' signatures appear on different copies of the substantially similar copies. Any entity being added after the agreement is in effect need only sign the documents which Tarrant County signs to be fully a party bound to all other parties, and such signature shall, as of the date of the signing, have the same force and effect as between the joining and already-bound members as if a single document was signed simultaneously by all then-participating entities.) If program enhancement activities are terminated, unexpended revenues will be promptly returned to the Texas Automobile Burglary and Theft Prevention Authority. This Agreement may be amended or modified by the mutual agreement of the parties hereto in writing. The Interlocal Agreement is for the period and on the conditions herein contained, and on such conditions to this Agreement as may be added by amendment or by law, and not for any period beyond that permitted by law, nor for any purpose not permitted by law. This instrument contains all commitments and agreements of the parties, and no oral or written commitments have any force or effect to alter any term or condition of this Agreement, unless the same are done in proper form and in a manner constituting a bona fide amendment hereto. Two non-local entities, the Texas Department of Public Safety and the National Insurance Crime Bureau each enter separate agreements with Tarrant County for the following reasons: Each entity's staff member carries a statewide law enforcement commission and therefore does not require the enhanced law enforcement jurisdiction afforded by this Agreement; Each entity funds their staff member's salary and fringe THE TARRANT REGIONAL AUTO CRIMES TASK FORCE INTERLOCAL ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT-PAGE 8 benefits 100%; and each entity's staff member performs in a support role to the Task Force and is available less than 100% of their work week because the availability of each is subject to assignments from their entity. The parties agree that their collective agreement may be evidenced by the execution of an identical counterpart of this instrument by the duly authorized official(s) of each participant and the failure of any anticipated member to enter into or renew this Agreement shall not affect the agreement between and among the parties executing the Agreement. THE TARRANT REGIONAL AUTO CRIMES TASK FORCE INTERLOCAL ASSISTANCE AGREEMENT-PAGE 9 ACCEPTANCE OF RESTRICTIONS Signature of this Agreement constitutes acceptance of all grant conditions, grant restrictions and the terms of all applicable laws. This is to certify that the objectives of the Tarrant Regional Auto Crimes Task Force as stated in its Grant Application for the fiscal year(s) funding covered by this Agreement have been reviewed and that it is mutually agreed to cooperate to whatever extent is necessary in carrying out the work plan described in the application(s). Additionally, each participating agency and entity is cognizant of the grant and agrees to abide by any and all rules or special conditions in relation to the application. Agencies or their representatives shall have the right to investigate, examine and audit at any time any and all necessary books, papers, documents, records and personnel that pertain to this contract or any related subcontracts. BUDGETARY MATTERS As part of this Agreement, all participating entities entitled to reimbursement will be reimbursed for their participation in this program by grant funds, according to the entity's applicable submitted budget schedule, to the extent that the budget schedule is consistent with the grant. Reimbursement will be made through the grant's financial officer, who is presently S. Renee Tidwell, Auditor, Tarrant County, but is subject to change by Tarrant County.
