Legal Question in Employment Law in California

Is there a difference in the meaning , legally , between the words " will " and " willing " as they pertain to a signed contract. The sentences i am refering to are : " The District will implement the compensation study as follows. " and " The District is willing to review positions in Phases 3 and 4 of the Compensation Study to determine if they are still at the median. ".
