DNTN2301 Denton Downtown Plan Scope
Phase 0: Organize
Timeline: Months 1-12
Phase 0 lays the groundwork for the success of the project through establishment of project standards.
Task 0.1 Project Management Plan
Our team will develop a Project Management Plan (PMP) that establishes the team leads, communication
protocols, material production standards, and quality control standards. It will contain the draft project
schedule that will be reviewed and validated, and adjusted as needed with City Staff.
Task 0.2 Project Kickoff Meeting and Site Visit
In a three-day team visit to Denton, our team will review the project management plan with the City Staff,
conduct a vision setting exercise with the City Staff and the Mend Collaborative (Mend) team, take part in
staff-led tours, brainstorm public engagement participation goals and Advisory Group composition, and
conduct up to six (6) initial stakeholder interviews with key project partners and elected officials, with up
to six (6) additional interviews to be conducted virtually. Stakeholder participants will be identified in
consultation with City Staff and the consultant team. Stakeholder interviews will be conducted in groups
of no more than three (3) participants. We will also initiate a door-to-door business owner survey in order
to establish contact with these key stakeholders. The Mend Team will participate in two (2) hours of door-
to door business owner survey, with City Staff conducting follow up to businesses that are not reached in
the initial canvas. Following the kickoff meeting and site visit, we will produce a summary that includes
an updated project schedule of deliverables and the results of the vision setting exercise.
Task 0.3 Biweekly Project Management Calls
The Mend team will establish a schedule for biweekly (once every two weeks) virtual project
management calls between the Mend team and the City Staff throughout the length of the project.
Task 0.4 Monthly Project Team Calls
The Mend team will establish a schedule for monthly check-in calls for the project team throughout the
length of the project.

Task 0.5 Data Request
Building on the results of the project kickoff meeting and site visit, the Mend team will develop and
submit an initial data request to the City Staff in an excel spreadsheet format.
Task 0.6 Public Engagement Plan
Within two weeks of the kickoff meeting, the Mend team will submit a draft Public Engagement Plan
(PEP) that aligns with goals and milestones discussed during the kickoff meeting. The document will
explain in detail the target audiences, methods of engagement, timeline for activities, Advisory Group
composition, and performance goals - such as number of individuals participating and levels of public
input. The PEP will help to organize the Mend team and City Staff who will be focused on engagement
and process with engagement events and tasks happening throughout the duration of the Downtown Plan
process. It will also confirm the final composition of the 16-20 members of the Advisory Group, which
must also be formally accepted by the City Council through a resolution.
Task 0.7 Project Branding
Upon initiation of the process, and with the input of the City Staff, the Mend team will work to engage a
local artist to assist in the development of the project brand. The Mend team intends to utilize the UNT
CoLab to facilitate an introduction to a local artist. This will include selection of a project name and
associated graphics. The artist’s design will then be adapted into a series of graphic standards, including
document and map templates, as well as materials for engagement, as called for by the Public
Engagement Plan, to ensure the key information and findings will be consistently formatted throughout
the course of the project and between the multiple teams.
Expectations and Responsibilities for City Staff
Unless noted in the scope of work, the Mend Team is responsible for the fulfillment of each task.
While roles will be further clarified through the Project Management Plan and the Public Engagement
Plan, City Staff will be expected to:
● Provide for meeting logistics, including locations and food
● Plan kickoff tour(s), including designing route(s), preparing maps, and securing transportation.
● Utilize their communications channels
● Provide local knowledge and insight into stakeholders, outreach and the local community
● Participate in distributing posters, signs and other promotional materials
● Review and comment upon deliverables in an agreed upon format and timeframe
● Compiling and providing access to existing planning documents and data
● Provide additional outreach information gathered through staff lead public engagement
● The Mend team will design surveys and pop ups in ways that City Staff will be able to expand
upon the engagement conducted by the Mend team if desired

Phase 1: Understand
Timeline: Months 1-3
In this phase, the Mend team will work to understand relevant data, opportunities, and limitations,
national best practices, emerging trends, and previous planning processes that affect Downtown Denton.
Our goal within this phase is to merge quantitative data and qualitative observation, including
engagement results, to understand the needs of the study area and build a “Case for Action” that allows us
to fully develop project goals and strategies in the next phase.
Task 1.1 Existing and Ongoing Plan, Data, and Recommendation
Review
A review of previous planning efforts and conceptual plans as well as data provided by the City. This will
include identifying key opportunities to advance strategies in existing plans while identifying areas to
leverage and complement efforts being made by the City. This baseline will help guide and facilitate
conversations throughout the engagement process and establish a foundation for our understanding of the
city’s park and recreation system. These plans, studies, and data will be provided by the City Staff for the
Mend team to review. The Mend team will also coordinate with the Southeast Denton Area Plan
consultant to ensure continuity in planning.
Task 1.2 Demographic, Regulatory and Trend Analysis
The Mend team will review community demographics and future demographic trends as it applies to the
City of Denton and its Downtown, using Census data, American Community Survey data, and State
Projections data as available. The Mend team will analyze these demographics to understand demand and
DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A
4
future demographic trends for demand related to Downtown. The Mend team will also review existing
regulations, including zoning, development codes, and other regulatory tools within the City to assess
their impact on Downtown.
Task 1.3 Land use and Market Analysis
The Mend team will review City and Appraisal District data to develop a robust understanding of land use
and development opportunities within Downtown.
Task 1.4 Mobility Analysis
The Mend team will review data relating to mobility, including coordination with the City’s Downtown
Parking Study consultant in order to develop a robust understanding of transportation modes and patterns
and opportunities in Downtown. The Mend team will coordinate with the Downtown Parking Study
consultant to ensure schedules and recommended strategies are consistent.
Task 1.5 Open Space and Public Realm Analysis
The Mend team will review data relating to parks, recreation, open space, streetscapes, and environmental
systems, which, along with observation from our site visit, will be utilized to develop a robust
understanding of parks and public realm opportunities within the Downtown. Special attention will be
paid to Quakertown Park and a possible outdoor performance venue.
Task 1.6 Historic Resource Analysis
The Mend team will review data relating to historic resources in order to determine opportunities and
constraints within and for the historic core of Downtown.
Task 1.7 Advisory Group Meeting (1)
The Mend team will work with the City Staff to identify stakeholders to serve on the Advisory Group. In
their first meeting, the Mend team will facilitate activities to introduce the project, and to develop the
project vision and guiding principles. These stakeholders will provide in-depth community and/or
Downtown knowledge to help in shaping the engagement approach and process. Stakeholders will be
required to provide project information to communities they represent and to participate in other elements
of the public engagement. The first meeting will take place in person and will be scheduled to coincide
with Task 1.8.
Task 1.8 Pop-Ups and Speak Outs (2)
The Mend team will work with the City Staff to identify two (2) opportunities for pop-up (on site
engagement at parks or other existing events, such as farmers markets or other community events)
engagements or speak out events (formal presentations to existing organizations) to further information
gathering (approximately 90 minutes each). The Mend team will host a total of two (2) pop-up
DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A
5
engagements and speak out events. These will be identified through the public engagement plan and will
consider geographic spread and sizes of audiences. These events will be in-person during task 1.8, unless
a virtual meeting is requested by a specific targeted group.
Task 1.9 Online Community Surveys and Interactive Mapping (2)
The Mend team will work with the Advisory Group and the City Staff to develop two (2) community
surveys to be distributed electronically, one for Downtown as a whole and one specific to Quakertown
Park. These community surveys and interactive mapping will be built by the Mend team using the Social
Pinpoint tool, and the content will be developed with support from the City Staff and Advisory Group.
The Mend team will collaborate with the City Staff on a strategy to advertise the surveys, and will create
attractive, concise and user-friendly materials to advertise the surveys, as well as for pop-ups and other
events (for example, lawn signs, mailers, coaster, posters or other materials), according to the public
engagement plan. Each survey will inform the needs assessment and the preliminary recommendations,
one for Downtown as a whole and one for Quakertown Park. The Mend Team will also develop in person
survey materials that “mirror” the online survey and maps that can be utilized by City Staff to conduct
additional in person surveys.
Task 1.10 Case for Action
The information obtained in the “Understand” phase will be analyzed and compiled into a Case for Action
to be presented to the City Staff and released to the community. The results of the Case for Action will
take the form of story maps and recorded videos (script to be provided to City Staff for review in
advance) and will include maps, analysis graphics, charts, and other graphics-intensive elements and will
include a written summary.
Expectations and Responsibilities for City Staff
Unless noted in the scope of work, the Mend Team is responsible for the fulfillment of each task.
While roles will be further clarified through the Project Management Plan and the Public Engagement
Plan, City Staff will be expected to:
● Provide for meeting logistics, including locations and food
● Utilize their communications channels
● Provide local knowledge and insight into stakeholders, outreach and the local community
● Participate in distributing posters, signs and other promotional materials
● Review and comment upon deliverables in an agreed upon format and timeframe
● Compiling and providing access to existing planning documents and data
● Provide additional outreach information gathered through staff lead public engagement
● The Mend team will design surveys and pop ups in ways that City Staff will be able to expand
upon the engagement conducted by the Mend team if desired
Phase 1 Deliverables
● Summary of Analyses performed in Phase 1
DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A
6
● Engagement Materials that includes multiple print and online materials for the Advisory Group
Meeting and two (2) Pop-Ups and Speak Out events
● Engagement Summary (a graphic document to be distributed externally) of the Advisory Group
Meeting and Pop-Ups and Speak Outs performed in Phase 1
● Online Community Surveys and Interactive Mapping that includes the use of Social Pinpoint
● Case for Action (a PDF slide deck or an online GIS story map, accompanied by a video
presentation of the materials for an external audience; video script provided to City Staff for
review and approval; maps, analysis graphics, charts, and other graphics-intensive elements; and
a written summary)
Phase 2: Envision
Timeline: Months 4-6
In this phase, the Mend team will study, refine, and develop draft strategies using a conceptual planning
format based on the “three p’s”: Projects, Programs, and Policies. Projects are physical and usually
require greater amounts of time and funding. Programs can be relatively easy to implement, but require
staffing capacity to maintain. Policies, such as regulatory changes, often have almost no cost but can be
politically challenging. A mix of strategies that will work together to achieve the project’s goals, with
each recommendation catalyzing others will be prepared by the Mend team and provided to City Staff.
The recommended strategies identified will cite findings from the Case for Action in support of those
strategies and the project’s goals, providing a clear understanding of how they came about. If
implemented, these strategies— projects, programs and policies—will support quality of life
improvements and catalyze support of ongoing investment in Denton’s Downtown.
Task 2.1 Finalize Vision and Community Priorities Summary
Based on the results of the Understand phase, the Mend team will prepare a Community Priorities
Summary document that contains digestible results of all engagement efforts thus far. The summary’s
structure will be organized into key themes that set a foundation for the Plan vision and guiding
principles.
Task 2.2 Draft Development and Land Use Strategies
Based on the analysis and Case for Action developed in Tasks 1.1 through 1.10, the Mend team will
develop strategies for development and land use. This will include the development of a composite
analysis to identify opportunity/catalyst sites within Downtown and will include, but not be limited to:
● total appraisal value
● ownership
● historic resources
● utility easements/runs on each block of properties
DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A
7
Based on this analysis, the Mend team will then prepare a 10-year programming analysis for residential,
retail, and employment uses with specific building areas by type identified to further validate proposed
strategies related to development and land use.
Task 2.3 Draft Mobility Strategies
Based on the analysis and the Case for Action developed in Tasks 1.1 through 1.10, and in cooperation
with the City’s Downtown Parking Study consultant, the Mend team will develop strategies for mobility
to and through Downtown, with a focus on multimodal opportunities and improvements and policy
changes that will support the developed vision and economic opportunities within Downtown.
Task 2.4 Draft Open Space and Public Realm Strategies
Based on the analysis and the Case for Action developed in Tasks 1.1 through 1.10, the Mend team will
develop strategies for catalyst parks, open space, performance venues, and public realm improvements.
This will include a full conceptual plan for Quakertown Park and a possible outdoor performance venue
where applicable.
Task 2.5 Advisory Group Meeting (1)
During the week of the in-person Community Visioning Workshops, we propose to facilitate a separate
meeting with the Advisory Group. We will present the Case for Action and Strategies in greater detail,
and facilitate break-out group discussions based on areas of interest. Attendees will have the opportunity
to identify any gaps in challenges and opportunities presented.
Task 2.6 Community Visioning Workshops (2)
The Mend team will design fun and interactive in-person Community Visioning Workshops where
residents, property owners, business owners, workers, and visitors can learn more about the planning
process and articulate their vision and preferences for the future of Downtown. We propose to run two (2)
separate events on subsequent nights, one focused on Quakertown Park and the other on the full
Downtown, although we will disseminate information about both elements at both meetings. These
workshops will provide for public input on decisions to be made or direction to the Mend and City Staff
team regarding the proposed strategies. Hands-on activities may include a presentation of key Case for
Action findings, mapping exercises, facilitated round-table discussions, and a team-led walking tour of
Downtown and Quakertown Park before or after the event. We will use simple, tactile materials that
encourage people of all backgrounds and ages to participate and express their priorities. To maximize
participation, the community meeting may be held in conjunction with popular event(s).
Task 2.7 Focus Groups (2)
The Mend team will work with the City Staff to identify focus groups that represent key stakeholders,
hard-to-reach populations, and/or other focused groups to meet with in two (2) scheduled meetings
DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A
8
(approximately 1 hour each) to be hosted in-person during the days of the public workshops or virtually at
other times depending on the audience preference in order to receive specific and actionable feedback on
proposed strategies that impact them. These focus groups will be identified based on the initial results of
the study to date, but may include residents, business owners, members of the development community,
implementation partners (such as TXDOT or NCTCOG) and descendants of Quakertown residents.
Task 2.8 Pop-Ups and Speak Outs (2)
The Mend team will work with the City Staff to identify two (2) opportunities for pop-up (on site
engagement at parks or other existing events, such as farmers markets or other community events)
engagement or speak out events (formal presentations to existing organizations) to further the
development of the Downtown Plan and Quakertown Park Concept Plan. The Mend team will host a total
of two (2) pop-up engagements and speak out events (approximately 90 minutes each). These will be
identified through the public engagement plan, but will consider geographic spread and sizes of
audiences. The Mend team will provide pop up materials that the City Staff may utilize if they elect to
staff additional pop-ups or speak outs.
Task 2.9 Joint Workshop #1
The Mend team will facilitate a Joint Workshop with the Parks Board, Economic Development
Partnership Board, Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council to present and receive input on
the Final Draft Strategies Document, including preparing the PowerPoint presentation slides for the
meeting discussion. Results received from this Joint Workshop will be used to refine the recommended
strategies. This meeting will be scheduled to coincide with Tasks 2.5 through 2.8.
Task 2.10 Final Draft Strategies
Utilizing the results of the public engagement, the Mend team will revise and incorporate the topical
strategies into a Final Draft Strategy Document. This Final Draft Strategy Document will be provided to
the City Staff for review and comment prior to release to the community. The Mend team will record a
supporting video summary (script to be provided to City Staff for review and approval) of the Strategies
to accompany the Final Draft Strategy Document.
Expectations and Responsibilities for City Staff
Unless noted in the scope of work, the Mend Team is responsible for the fulfillment of each task.
While roles will be further clarified through the Project Management Plan and the Public Engagement
Plan, City Staff will be expected to:
● Provide for meeting logistics, including locations and food
● Utilize their communications channels
● Provide local knowledge and insight into stakeholders, outreach and the local community
● Participate in distributing posters, signs and other promotional materials
● Review and comment upon deliverables in an agreed upon format and timeframe

● 10-year Programming Analysis for residential, retail and employment uses
● A Full Conceptual Plan for Quakertown Park (drawing, PDF format)
Phase 3: Act
Timeline: Months 7-9
Task 3.1 Action Items
Once consensus on the strategies developed in the Envision Phase have been achieved, the Act Phase
focuses on developing the recommendations to a level of detail necessary for next steps in a path toward
implementation. This phase includes the refinement of action items, development of inspiring
illustrations, and diving into details that will be helpful for plan adoption.
We will develop action items for all of the strategies proposed, including policy and programmatic
recommendations. As recommended actions are developed, the department or agency with responsibility
for implementation will be identified.
Task 3.2 Conceptual Design Development and Costs
The Mend team will identify no more than four (4) catalyst projects that will be developed in greater
detail. This task also develops the implementation timeline and priorities, as well as a range of costs,
potential funding opportunities, and funding related requirements for the four (4) catalyst projects
DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A
10
(concept designs and high-level cost estimating, and gap analysis will be developed for this phase of the
project).
Task 3.3 Quakertown Park Concept Plan
The Mend team will finalize the Quakertown Park Concept Plan and develop an implementation timeline
and priorities, as well as a range of costs, potential funding opportunities, and funding related
requirements (concept designs and high-level cost estimating, and gap analysis will be developed for this
phase of the project).
Task 3.4 Funding and Revenue Strategies
The Mend team, in collaboration with the City Staff, will assess the city’s economic development tools
and funding levels and make recommendations for funding opportunities and strategies to forward the
plan’s recommendations.
Task 3.5 Renderings and Graphic Illustrations
The Mend team will develop five (5) Renderings or other graphic illustrations for the proposed four (4)
catalyst projects and Quakertown Park.
Task 3.6 Implementation Workshop (1)
The Mend team will hold a public Implementation Workshop. Whereas the first Community Visioning
Workshops were dedicated to “what” the Vision for Downtown plan should accomplish, this workshop
will concentrate on prioritizing concepts, and “how” to advance them. The Implementation Workshop
will involve engaging stakeholders in prioritizing the plan’s strategies, and validating implementation
tools, which may include local capital and operating funding sources, public/ private partnerships, and
local policy and regulatory changes.
Task 3.7 Advisory Group (1)
Similar to the “Envision” phase, the Mend team will hold a separate meeting with the Advisory Group.
This meeting will focus on relaying the results of Tasks 3.1-3.6 and to gain support for final plan
adoption.
Task 3.8 Joint Workshop #2
The Mend team will facilitate a Joint Workshop with the Parks Board, Economic Development
Partnership Board, Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council to present and receive input on
the Downtown Plan. The purpose of this Joint Workshop will be to present the proposed Downtown Plan
and identify/discuss any key issues in need of direction and refinement prior to initiating the public
hearing and adoption phase of the proposed Downtown Plan. The Mend Team will prepare the
DocuSign Envelope ID: B27D935C-00B1-436D-90D2-2BC685FA3D2A

PowerPoint presentation slides for the meeting discussion. This meeting will be scheduled to coincide
with Tasks 3.6 and 3.7.
Task 3.9 Implementation Partner Meetings (2)
The Mend team will hold up to two (2) meetings (approximately 1-hour each) with key implementation
partners identified through the process (in-person if scheduled in coordination with Task 3.6, virtual if
that scheduling is impossible). This could include organizations such as TXDOT, development partners or
other stakeholders identified through the process. The purpose of the meetings will be to establish
implementation partnerships.
Task 3. 10 Final Downtown Plan
The Mend team will develop the final Downtown Plan. The final Plan will be in a reader-friendly
document with sufficient text for communicating the Plan’s goals, strategies and related implementation
actions with an emphasis on maps, charts, photos, graphics and tables to convey information rather than
using lengthy text. Depending on the preference of the City Staff, a final concept plan for Quakertown
Park will either be included as a portion of the Downtown Plan, as a stand-alone document or both. The
document will be reviewed by staff prior to its release to the public. This final document will be the final
document delivered to the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council for approval and adoption.
Expectations and Responsibilities for City Staff
Unless noted in the scope of work, the Mend Team is responsible for the fulfillment of each task.
While roles will be further clarified through the Project Management Plan and the Public Engagement
Plan, City Staff will be expected to:

such,we typically wear clothing that fits community standards,unless requested
otherwise by the client.For this project,our dress standards will be:

Client Role
The client will commit to a 5 business day review for minor deliverables (such as
engagement materials,workshop presentations,etc.).
The client will commit to a 10 business day review for major deliverables (such as
draft or final reports).
Delays in client review will impact the project timeline.
The client will ensure deliverables are reviewed by all necessary parties,and will
commit to consolidating comments and resolving contradictory comments prior to
returning the comments to the project team.If multiple rounds of comments are
foreseen (for example,client staff review prior to client leadership review),
expectations should be set by the client so that time can be built into the project
timeline.The comments will be either returned using tracked changes in a
document or spreadsheet,or using the comment functions of Adobe Reader on a
single PDF.
The project team will address all comments within 5 business days for a minor
deliverable or 10 business days for a major deliverable.
The project team will provide a spreadsheet with all comments and actions taken to
the client along with the updated deliverable.

Exhibit E
Consultant’s Insurance Requirements
Bidder's attention is directed to the insurance requirements below. It is highly recommended
that bidders confer with their respective insurance carriers or brokers to determine in advance
of Bid submission the availability of insurance certificates and endorsements as prescribed
and provided herein. If an apparent low bidder fails to comply strictly with the insurance
requirements, that bidder may be disqualified from award of the contract. Upon bid award, all
insurance requirements shall become contractual obligations, which the successful bidder
shall have a duty to maintain throughout the course of this contract.
STANDARD PROVISIONS:
Without limiting any of the other obligations or liabilities of the Contractor, the Contractor shall
provide and maintain until the contracted work has been completed and accepted by the City of
Denton, Owner, the minimum insurance coverage as indicated hereinafter.
As soon as practicable after notification of bid award, Contractor shall file with the Purchasing
Department satisfactory certificates of insurance, containing the bid number and title of the
project. Contractor may, upon written request to the Purchasing Department, ask for
clarification of any insurance requirements at any time; however, Contractors are strongly
advised to make such requests prior to bid opening, since the insurance requirements may not be
modified or waived after bid opening unless a written exception has been submitted with the bid.
Contractor shall not commence any work or deliver any material until he or she receives
notification that the contract has been accepted, approved, and signed by the City of Denton.
All insurance policies proposed or obtained in satisfaction of these requirements shall comply
with the following general specifications, and shall be maintained in compliance with these
general specifications throughout the duration of the Contract, or longer, if so noted:
Each policy shall be issued by a company authorized to do business in the State of
Texas with an A.M. Best Company rating of at least A- VII or better.
Any self-insured exposure shall be deemed to be an insured risk under the Contract. The
beneficiaries of such insurance shall be afforded no less insurance protection than if
such self-insured portion was fully insured by an insurance company of the quality and
caliber required hereunder (including, without limitation, the protection of a legal

within the same time period that a third party insurance carrier of the quality and
caliber otherwise required hereunder would have paid such claims.
Liability policies shall be endorsed to provide the following:
Name as additional insured the City of Denton, its Officials, Agents,
Employees and volunteers. (except for professional liability).
That such insurance is primary to any other insurance available to the
additional insured with respect to claims covered under the policy and that this
insurance applies separately to each insured against whom claim is made or
suit is brought. The inclusion of more than one insured shall not operate to
increase the insurer's limit of liability.
Provide a Waiver of Subrogation in favor of the City of Denton, its officials,
agents, employees, and volunteers.
Cancellation: City requires 30 day written notice should any of the policies
described on the certificate be cancelled before the expiration date.
Should any of the required insurance be provided under a claims-made form,
Contractor shall maintain such coverage continuously throughout the term of
this contract and, without lapse, for a period of three years beyond the contract
expiration, such that occurrences arising during the contract term which give
rise to claims made after expiration of the contract shall be covered.
Should any of the required insurance be provided under a form of coverage that
includes a general annual aggregate limit providing for claims investigation or
legal defense costs to be included in the general annual aggregate limit, the
Contractor shall either double the occurrence limits or obtain Owners and
Contractors Protective Liability Insurance.
Should any required insurance lapse during the contract term, requests for
payments originating after such lapse shall not be processed until the City
receives satisfactory evidence of reinstated coverage as required by this
contract, effective as of the lapse date. If insurance is not reinstated, City may,
at its sole option, terminate this agreement effective on the date of the lapse.
SPECIFIC ADDITIONAL INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS:
All insurance policies proposed or obtained in satisfaction of this Contract shall additionally
comply with the following marked specifications, and shall be maintained in compliance with
these additional specifications throughout the duration of the Contract, or longer, if so noted:

ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, City of Denton (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to
you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for
providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through your DocuSign, Inc.
(DocuSign) Express user account. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly,
and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to these terms
and conditions, please confirm your agreement by clicking the 'I agree' button at the bottom of
this document.
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available
electronically to you by us. For such copies, as long as you are an authorized user of the
DocuSign system you will have the ability to download and print any documents we send to you
through your DocuSign user account for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such
documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of
any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee. You may
request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time
change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures
only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and
disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures
electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format,
and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such
paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must
withdraw your consent using the DocuSign 'Withdraw Consent' form on the signing page of your
DocuSign account. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn your consent to receive
required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no longer be able to use your
DocuSign Express user account to receive required notices and consents electronically from us
or to sign electronically documents from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide
electronically to you through your DocuSign user account all required notices, disclosures,
authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or
made available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of
you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required
notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given
us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through
the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as
described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the
consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures
electronically from us.
