Special Emergencies Clause Samples

The Special Emergencies clause defines the procedures and rights of the parties in the event of extraordinary or unforeseen situations that significantly disrupt normal operations. Typically, this clause outlines what constitutes a special emergency—such as natural disasters, war, or government actions—and specifies the steps each party must take, such as notifying the other party, suspending obligations, or invoking alternative arrangements. Its core practical function is to provide a clear framework for managing contractual obligations during crises, thereby reducing uncertainty and allocating risk fairly between the parties.

Special Emergencies. 1. The Chief of Police shall establish an Emergency Towing Services List (“Emergency List”) which shall include but not be limited to all Towing Agencies. This Emergency List shall be used whenever the Chief of Police, his designee, or any lawful authority determines that an emergency situation exists and that a large number of vehicles must be quickly removed from City streets. 2. Because an emergency situation requires prompt response, a strict rotation basis will not be used. However, the Towing Agencies will be given priority in providing the tow trucks required during the period of emergency. The Dispatcher will assign tow trucks to calls as the tow trucks become available. If the Towing Agencies are not able to supply the number of tow trucks required during the emergency, the Chief of Police, or his designee, in his sole discretion, shall seek to engage tow trucks from towing agencies which are on the Emergency List. 3. Only Towing Agencies shall be assigned to accident calls during the period of emergency. The duration and extent of towing services required during an emergency shall be determined solely by the Chief of Police, or his designee, and no amount of work during an emergency shall be guaranteed. A reasonable effort shall be made by the Dispatcher to distribute the towing during an emergency among the Towing Agencies on the rotation list as evenly as possible and to assign Towing Agencies to geographic areas closest to their home base of operations. 4. The Police Department may request the use of tow trucks at the scene of an emergency on a stand-by basis (hereinafter “Emergency Stand-by”). The duration and extent of such Emergency Stand-by status shall be determined by the ranking police officer at the emergency scene. No amount of work will be guaranteed to the Towing Agency for such stand- by status. The Towing Agency shall be paid for Emergency Stand-by status as set forth in Appendix A.
