Law 116-136. The County recently became eligible under the Program to apply for
reimbursement for amounts that the County refunded to a local unit of government, local
governmental authority, or intergovernmental agency which the County has contracted with to
provide public safety or public health services. The Parties enter into this Amendment for the
purpose of the County refunding to the Municipality certain amounts that the Municipality paid
to the County for Law Enforcement Services under the Agreement and for the Municipality to
reimburse the County for any amounts that the County refunds to the Municipality that the
County does not receive reimbursement from the SOM or with other CARES Act grant funding
or that the County has to return/forfeit for any reason.

otherwise continues the present contractual relationship between the Parties as described in the
Agreement. The Parties amend the Agreement as follows:
I . All defined words or phrases in the Agreement between the Parties will apply throughout
this Amendment, unless specified otherwise in this Amendment.

otherwise changed or altered by this Amendment except as expressly provided in this
Amendment.
3. The County will refund to Municipality the amount not to exceed $266,289 (the
"Refund Amount"), which Municipality paid to County for Law Enforcement Services
provided by County during the months of April and/or May of 2020.
4. The County has applied to the SOM Program for reimbursement of the Refund Amount
noted above and will issue the Refund Amount to the Municipality based on the SOM
Program award amount prior to the County being awarded or reimbursed by the SOM
for the Refund Amount.
5. Municipality has no right or claim to any reimbursement from the SOM that the County
applies for or receives.
6, if the County is not fully reimbursed by the SOM or with other CARES Act grant
funding for the Refund Amount or the County is required to return/forfeit any of the
reimbursement from the SOM or other CARES Act grant funding for any reason, the
Municipality shall reimburse the County for any and all amounts that the County is not
fully reimbursed by the SOM or with other CARES Act grant funding for the Refund
Amount and for any and all amounts of the SOM reimbursement or other CARES Act
grant funding that the County is required to return/forfeit.
If the Municipality is required under this Agreement to reimburse the County for any
of the Refund Amount, the County will send the Municipality an invoice for the amount
that the Municipality must reimburse the County. The Municipality shall pay the
County the full amount due on any such invoice within thirty (30) days of the invoice
