the "County Contact Person" (as defined in Section I, C., below),
in accordance with the conditions set forth in Section II., A., of this
Agreement, of Contractor's need for special duty services, the

2. "Special Duty Services" Defined. "Special duty services" shall
encompass only those duties and functions of a peace officer, as
defined by Colorado statutes, and/or by the commission granted by
the Weld County Sheriff to the assigned deputy (ies). The
assigned deputy (ies) shall be responsible only for the enforcement
of applicable laws of Weld County and the State of Colorado
during the event for which law enforcement services are requested
pursuant to the Agreement. The assigned deputy (ies)' authority
shall not extend to enforcement of rules and regulations made by
Contractor, except to the extent that such rules and regulations
require conduct in compliance with such ordinances and laws.
3. Communication with Contractor Contact Person. Upon arrival at
the event, the assigned deputy (ies) shall contact the Contractor
Contact Person or the designated on-site official in charge of the
event to verify the commencement of special duty services and to
be informed of any circumstances of which the assigned deputy
(ies) should be made aware prior to the commencement of the
services. At the completion of the event assignment, the assigned
deputy (ies) shall contact the Contractor Contact Person or the
designated on-site official in charge of the event to verify the
termination of services and to confirm the total time of special duty
deputy services rendered for the event.
B. Labor and Equipment.
The County shall furnish all labor, supervision, training, equipment,
communications facilities for dispatch, and all supplies necessary for the
provision of the special duty services to Contractor contemplated by this
Agreement and as requested by Contractor. Contractor shall not be liable
for the direct payment of salaries, wages, or other compensation to the
assigned deputy (ies) performing such services. County shall provide the
necessary worker's compensation coverage and unemployment
compensation coverage for the assigned deputy(ies).

Agreement, the discipline of the assigned deputy (ies) fulfilling the terms
of this Agreement, and other matters incidental to the performance of the
terms of this Agreement shall at all times remain exclusively vested in the
Weld County Sheriff and not in the Contractor, its officers and agents.
Generally, performance standards, procedures, and discipline for those
deputies shall be consistent with the performance standards, procedures,
and discipline required of deputies providing service in unincorporated
areas of Weld County.

Contact Person shall work toward the common purpose of enhancing the
effectiveness of the special duty deputy services. It is understood that the
Contractor Contact Person will forward all complaints or concerns from
the Contractor in relation to this Agreement to the County Contact Person.
The County Contact Person will make all reasonable efforts to respond to
complaints and/or concerns and to take prompt action to address the same.
