which combine to define the Scope of Work. Any work, materials or equipment that
may reasonably be inferred from the Contract Documents as being required to produce
the intended result shall be supplied whether or not specifically called for. When words
that have awell-known technical or trade meaning are used to describe work,
materials or equipment, such words shall be interpreted in accordance with that
meaning. Reference to standard specifications, manuals or codes of any technical
society, organization or association or to the laws or regulations of any governmental
authority having jurisdiction over the Project, whether such reference be specific or by
implication, shall mean the latest standard specification, manual, code, law or
regulation in effect at the time the work is performed, except as may be otherwise
specifically stated herein.
B. The Contract Documents and all referenced standards cited therein are essential parts
of the Contract requirements. A requirement occurring in one is as binding as though
occurring in all. They are intended to be complimentary and to describe and provide
for a complete project.
C. Drawings are intended to show general arrangements, design and extent of work.
Specifications are separated into divisions for convenience of reference only and shall
not be interpreted as establishing divisions for the work, trades, subcontracts, or
extent of any part of the work. In the event of a discrepancy between or among the
drawings, specifications or other Contract Document provisions, the Contractor shall be
required to comply with the provision, which is the more restrictive or stringent
requirement upon the Contractor, as determined by the Engineer. Unless otherwise
specifically mentioned, all anchors, bolts, screws, fittings, fillers, hardware,
accessories, trim and other parts required in connection with any portion of the work
to make a complete, serviceable, finished and first quality installation shall be
furnished and installed as part of the work, whether or not called for by the Contract
Documents.
2. STORAGE OF MATERIALS
Materials shall be so placed so as to permit easy access for proper inspection and
identification of each shipment. Any material which has deteriorated, become damaged,
or is otherwise unfit for use, as determined by the Engineer, shall not be used in the work,
and shall be removed from the site by the Contractor at his expense.
3. SANITATION
The Contractor shall provide and maintain adequate sanitary conveniences for the use of
persons employed on the work. These conveniences shall be maintained at all times
without nuisance, and their use shall be strictly enforced. The location of these
conveniences shall be subject to the Engineer's approval.

4. ERRORS AND OMISSIONS
The Contractor shall not take advantage of any apparent error or omission in the Contract
Documents. If any errors and/or omissions appear in the Contract Documents, or
construction stakeout, the Contractor shall immediately notify the Engineer, in writing, of
such errors and/or omissions. In the event the Contractor knows or should have known of
any errors and/or omissions and fails to provide such notification, he shall be deemed to
have waived any claim for increased time or compensation he may have had and he shall
be held responsible for the results and the costs of rectifying any such errors and/or
omissions.

Section 102 of the FDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge
Construction may be grounds for decertification or removal from the projector
both. Failure to maintain a designated Worksite Traffic Supervisor or failure to
comply with these provisions will result in temporary suspension of all activities
except traffic and erosion control and such other activities deemed to be
necessary for project maintenance.
D. General Inspection Requirements
1. Cooperation by the Contractor:
No work shall be done nor materials used, without suitable supervision or
inspection by the Engineer or his representative, and the Contractor shall
furnish the Engineer with every reasonable facility for ascertaining whether the
work performed and materials used are in accordance with the requirements
and intent of the plans and specifications. If the Engineer so requests, the
Contractor shall, at any time before final acceptance of the work, remove or
uncover such portions of the finished work as may be directed. After
examination, the Contractor shall restore the uncovered portions of the work to
the standard required by the specifications. Should the work so exposed or
examined prove unacceptable, the uncover or removal, and the replacing of
the covering or making good of the parts removed, shall be at the Contractor's
expense. However, should the work thus exposed or examined prove
acceptable, the uncovering or removing, and the replacing of the covering or
making good of the parts removed, shall be paid for as Unforeseeable Work.
2. Failure to Remove and Renew Defective Materials and Work:
a. Should the Contractor fail or refuse to remove and renew any defective
materials used or work performed, or to make any necessary corrections in an
acceptable manner and in accordance with the requirements of the
specifications, within the time indicated in writing, the Engineer shall have the
authority to cause the unacceptable or defective materials or work to be
repaired, removed and renewed, as may be necessary; all at the Contractor's
expense.
b. Any expense incurred by the City in making these repairs, removals, or
renewals, which the Contractor has failed or refused to make, shall be paid for
out of any moneys due or which may become due the Contractor, or may be
charged against the contract bond. Continued failure or refusal on the part of
the Contractor to make any or all necessary repairs promptly, fully and in an
acceptable manner shall be sufficient cause for the City, at its option, to
perform the work with its own organization, or to contract with any other
individual, firm or corporation to perform the work. All costs and expenses
incurred thereby shall be charged against the defaulting Contractor and the
amount thereof deducted from any moneys due or which may become due
him, or shall be charged against the contract bond. Any work performed
subsequent to forfeiture of the contract, as described in this Paragraph, shall
not relieve the Contractor in any way of his responsibility for the work
performed by him.
B-4
~ .~
3. Inspection by the Federal Government or State of Florida:
When the United States Government, or State of Florida, is to pay a portion of the
cost of construction, the construction work will be subject to such inspection by its
representatives as they may deem necessary, but such inspection will in no case
make the Federal Government, or State of Florida, a party to this contract.
6 AUTHORITY OF THE ENGINEER AND ENGINEER'S ASSISTANTS
A. All work shall be done in accordance with the Contract Documents.
B. It is agreed by the parties hereto that the Engineer shall decide all questions,
difFiculties and disputes, of whatever nature, which may arise relative to the
interpretation of the plans, construction, prosecution and fulfillment of the contract,
and as to the character, quality, amount and value of any work done, and materials
furnished, under or by reason of the contract.
C. The City retains the right to inspect all work to verify compliance with the Contract
Documents. The Engineer may appoint such assistants and representatives as
desired. They shall be authorized to inspect all work done and all materials furnished.
This right of inspection in no way means or implies City control or other supervision
over the work done or the work site. This right is solely for the City's benefit and
imposes no duties or responsibilities on the City and confers no rights on any other
parties. Such inspection may extend to all or any part of the work and to the
manufacture, preparation or fabrication of the materials to be used. Such assistants
shall not be authorized to revoke, alter or waive any requirement of the Contract
Documents.
D. The assistants and representatives shall be authorized to call to the attention of the
Contractor any failure of the work or materials to conform to the Contract Documents,
and shall have the authority to reject materials or suspend the work until any
questions at issue can be referred to and decided by the Engineer. The Contractor
shall be immediately notified in writing of any such suspension of the work and such
notice shall state in detail the reasons for the suspension. The presence of the
Inspector or other assistant shall in noway lessen the responsibility of the Contractor.
E. Failure of the Engineer to Reject Work during Construction:
If, during or prior to construction operations, the Engineer should fail to reject
defective work or materials, whether from lack of discovery of such defect or for any
other reason, such initial failure to reject shall in no way prevent his later rejection
when such defect is discovered, or obligate the City to final acceptance, and the
Contractor shall make no claim for losses suffered due to any necessary removals or
repairs of such defects.
7. CONTRACT TIME AND TIME EXTENSIONS
A. Unless otherwise provided, contract time shall mean the number of consecutive
calendar days from the commencement date noted in the Notice to Proceed to the
date on which all work is to be completed. The Contractor shall diligently pursue the
B-5
S
completion of the work and coordinate the work being done on the project by its
subcontractors and material suppliers, as well as coordinate his work with the work of
other contractors so that his work or the work of others shall not be delayed or
impaired by any act or omission of any act by a Contractor. The Contractor shall be
solely responsible for all construction means, methods, techniques, sequences and
procedures, as well as coordination of alt portions of the work under the Contract
Documents.
B. Should the Contractor be obstructed or delayed in the prosecution of or completion of
the work as a result of unforeseeable causes beyond the control of the Contractor, and
not due to his fault or neglect, including but not restricted to acts of God or the public
enemy, acts of government, fires, floods, discovery of pre-existing hazardous
materials, utility conflicts, epidemics, quarantine regulations, strikes or lockouts, the
Contractor shall notify the Engineer in writing within two (2) regular work days after
the commencement of such delay, stating the cause or causes thereof, or be deemed
to have waived any right which the Contractor may have had to request a time
extension.
C. NO CLAIM FOR DAMAGES OR ANY CLAIM OTHER THAN FOR AN EXTENSION
OF TIME SHALL BE MADE OR ASSERTED AGAINST THE CITY BY REASON OF
ANY DELAYS. No interruption, interference, inefficiency, suspension or delay in the
commencement or progress of the work shall relieve the Contractor of his duty to
perform or give rise to any right to damages or additional compensation from the City.
The Contractor expressly acknowledges and agrees that the Contractor shall receive
no damages for delay. However, this provision shall not preclude recovery or damages
by the Contractor for hindrances or delays due solely to fraud, bad faith or active
interference on the part of the City. Otherwise, Contractor shall be entitled to
extensions of the Contract Time as the sole and exclusive remedy for such resulting
delay, in accordance with and to the extent specifically provided above. This provision
applies to claims for early completion as well as late completion. Such extensions of
time will not be granted for delays caused by unfavorable weather, ground conditions
related to the weather, inadequate construction force or for the failure of the
Contractor to timely order equipment or materials.
D. If the Contractor complies with the two (2) regular work days notice requirement, the
Engineer shall ascertain the facts and the extent of the delay being claimed. The
Engineer's findings of fact justify such an extension, and the Engineer's finding of fact
shall be final and conclusive on the parties. The Contractor shall cooperate with the
Engineer's investigation of the delays by providing any schedules, correspondence or
other data that may be required to complete the findings of fact. Extensions to the
contract time may be granted for only those delays that impact the Contractor's
Construction Schedule. Extensions of contract time must be authorized by Change
Order approved in accordance with Board policy.

Article shall be made by identifying the said sums as a credit item on the Contractor's
pay estimate for the period during which the liability for the sums occurred. The credit
item shall show the total number of days applicable under (D) times the corresponding
per day or per hour cost.
9. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
A. The City and the Contractor recognize that, since time is of the essence for this
Contract, the City will suffer financial loss if the work is not completed within the time
specified.
B. The City shall be entitled to assess, as liquidated damages, but not as a penalty, for
each calendar day after the scheduled completion date. The project shall be deemed
to be completed on the date the work is deemed complete to the satisfaction of the
Engineer. The Contractor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any right which it
may have to seek to characterize the above-noted liquidated damages as a penalty.
The parties agree that the liquidated damages sum represents a fair and reasonable
estimate of the City's actual damages at the time of contracting if the Contractor fails
to complete the work in a timely manner. The liquidated damages shall be as follows:

10. CHANGES IN THE WORK
A. Without invalidating the contract, the Engineer may at any time, by written order,
direct extra work within the general scope or alter the work by addition or deduction of
items that do not alter the scope of the work. Such changes may be effected by
Change Order or by other written order. Such changes shall be binding on the
Contractor. No officer, employee, or agent of the City is authorized to direct any extra
or change work orally. All changes orders shall be executed in the manner set forth in
the City of Clermont Purchasing Procedures. A copy of such procedures shall be
available upon request.
B. If changes to the scope of the work are required or if the contract time or the total
contract price is increased or decreased, a Change Order in accordance with Board
policy will be required.
C. The value of such extra work or change shall be determined by contract unit values if
applicable unit values are set forth in the contract. The amount of the change shall be
computed from such values and added to or deducted from the contract price. If the
applicable unit values are not in the contract, the value of such extra work or change
shall be determined by negotiation.
D. Should a Change Order be required, and the City and the Contractor are unable to
agree on the requested change, the Contractor shall, nevertheless, promptly perform
the change as directed in writing by the Engineer. If the Contractor disagrees with the
Engineer`s adjustment determination, the Contractor must make a claim pursuant to
the Claims and Dispute Section herein, or else be deemed to have waived any claim on
this matter it might otherwise have had.
E. For new work not covered by contract unit values, the amount of an increase shall be
limited to the Contractor's reasonable direct labor and material costs and reasonable
actual equipment costs as a result of the change (including allowance for labor burden
costs) plus a maximum ten percent (10%) markup for all overhead and profit. In the
B-8

event such change work is performed by a subcontractor, a maximum ten percent
(10%) markup for all overhead and profit for all subcontractors' direct labor and
material costs and actual equipment costs shall be permitted, with a maximum five
percent (5%) markup thereon by the Contractor for all of its overhead and profit, for a
total overall maximum markup of fifteen percent (15%) of the amount of change work.
All compensation due the Contractor and any Subcontractor orsub-subcontractor for
field and home office overhead is included in the markups noted above.
F. In an emergency endangering life or property, or as expressly set forth herein, the
Engineer has the authority to order the necessary work in writing. The City shall not
be liable to the Contractor for any increased compensation without such written order.
The payment authorized by a written order shall represent full and complete
compensation to the Contractor for labor, materials, incidental expenses, overhead,
profit, impact costs, and time associated with the work authorized by such written
order.
G. Execution by the Contractor of a properly authorized Change Order (see appendix)
shall be considered a waiver of all claims or requests for additional time or
compensation for any activities prior to the time of execution related to items included
in the Change Order.

business days after the commencement of the event giving rise to such claim or else
the Contractor shall be deemed to have waived the claim. Written supporting data
shall be submitted to the Engineer within ten (10) calendar days after the occurrence
of the event, unless the City grants additional time in writing, or else the Contractor
shall be deemed to have waived the claim. All claims shall be priced in accordance
with the provisions of the section in this document entitled "Changes in Work".
B. The Contractor shall proceed diligently with its performance as directed by the City,
regardless of any pending claim, action, suit, or administrative proceeding, unless

1. Upon receiving the claim and supporting data, the City shall within fifteen (15)
business days respond to the claim in writing stating that the claim is either
approved or denied. If denied, the City shall specify the grounds for denial. The

United States Standard Measures.
B. All measurements shall be taken horizontally or vertically, unless specifically provided
otherwise.
C. In the measurement of items to be paid for on the basis of area of finished work,
when the pay quantity is designated to be determined by calculation, the lengths
and/or widths to be used in the calculations shall be the station-to-station dimensions
shown on the plans, the station-to-station dimensions actually constructed within the
limits designated by the Engineer, or the final dimensions measured of the completed
work within the lines shown on the plans or designated by the Engineer. The method,
or combination of methods, shall be those which reflect with reasonable accuracy the
actual area of finished work as determined and authorized by the Engineer.
D. No payment will be made for either construction over a greater area than authorized,
or for material moved from outside of stakes and data shown on the plans, except
when such work is performed upon instructions of the Engineer.
E. The Contractor shall accept compensation provided under the terms of this contract as
full payment for furnishing all materials and for performing all work contemplated and
embraced under this contract. Such compensation shall also be for any and all loss or
damage arising out of the nature of the work or from the action of the elements, or
from any unforeseen difficulties or obstructions encountered during the contract period
until final acceptance by the City.
F. Whenever any change, or combination of changes in the plans, results in an increase
or decrease in the original contract quantities, and the work added or
decreased/eliminated is of the same general character as that called for in the plans,
the Contractor shall accept payment in full at the original contract unit prices for the
actual quantity of work performed, with no allowance for any foss of anticipated
profits.
G. Where the pay quantity for an item is designated to be Lump Sum, and the plans or
specifications indicate an estimated quantity, compensation for that item will be
adjusted proportionately if a plan change results in a significant change in the quantity
from such estimated plan quantity.
B-10
~ e ~
H. Failure to construct any item to plan or authorized dimensions within the specification
tolerances shall result in reconstruction by the Contractor to acceptable tolerances at
no additional cost to the City, acceptance at no pay, or acceptance at reduced final pay
as determined by the Engineer. Adjustments to final pay for those items designated to
be paid on the basis of Lump Sum quantity under these provisions shall not be made
unless such adjustments results in an aggregate change per item of more than
$1,000.00 for earthwork items, or more than $100.00 for any other item.
Materials purchased by the Contractor for drainage structures, drainage pipe, and road
base delivered to job site for this contract are eligible as determined by the Engineer
for payment up to one half the bid unit price. If payment is made the materials shall
become the property of City of Clermont. The Contractor shall be responsible for loss
or theft and shall replace, at the Contractor's expense, any such materials lost for any
reason. The remainder of payment shall not be made until such materials are properly
constructed and in place per plans and specifications.
13. PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR
Monthly progress payments will be made to the Contractor. In accordance with the items
listed within the Bid Form -Tabulation of Estimated Quantities (Division W), a list of items
rendered complete, satisfactory, and acceptable will be prepared by the Contractor within
30 calendar days after reaching substantial completion. Failure of the Contractor to include
any corrective work or pending items not yet completed on the list developed pursuant to
this subsection does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all
construction services purchased pursuant to this Contract. Upon completion of all items on
the list, the Contractor may submit a payment request with his next monthly invoice for all
remaining retainage withheld by the City. If a good-faith dispute exists as to whether one
or more items have been completed pursuant to the Contract, the City may continue to
withhold an amount not to exceed 150 percent of the total costs to complete the
remaining items. The Contractor's project representative will be required to review these
estimates with the Inspector and sign the estimate in agreement. The payment estimate
based on extension of the unit values for said quantities will then be checked by the
Inspector's supervisor, who will reconfirm with the Inspector and contractor any required
corrections, before further processing for payments.
All payments made to the Contractor and all payment of subcontractors, sub-contractors,
material men, and suppliers shall be in accordance with Part VII, Chapter 218, Florida
Statutes (2005).

and all claims by the Contractor against the City arising out of this Contract or
otherwise related to the project, except those previously made in writing and
identified by the Contractor as unsettled at the time the final estimate is prepared.
2. Neither the acceptance of the work nor payment by the City shall be deemed to be
a waiver of the City's rights to enforce any continuing obligations of the Contractor
hereunder or to the recovery of damages for defective work not discovered by the
City at the time of final inspection.
E. Termination of Contractor's Responsibility
The contract will be considered complete when all work has been completed and has
been accepted by the Engineer. The Contractor will then be released from further
obligation except as set forth in his bonds and in this Division.
F. Recovery Rights, Subsequent to Final Payment
The City reserves the right, should an error be discovered in the partial or final
estimates, or should proof of defective work or materials used by or on the part of the
Contractor be discovered after the final payment has been made, to claim and recover
from the Contractor or his surety, or both, by process of law, such sums as may be
sufficient to correct the error or make good the defects in the work and materials.

17. SITE INVESTIGATION
A. Each Contractor shall visit the site of the proposed work and fully acquaint himself with
conditions relating to construction and labor so that he may fully understand the
facilities, difficulties and restrictions attending the execution of work under the
contract. The Contractor shall thoroughly examine and be familiar with the Contract
Documents. Failure or omission of the Contractor to receive or examine any form,
instrument, addendum or other documents, or to visit the site and acquaint himself
with conditions existing thereon, shall in no way relieve the Contractor from any
obligation with respect to the Contract.
Optional The Geotechnica/ Report dated September 24, 2007, as prepared by
Professional Service Industries, Inc. (PSI) are available for review at the City of
Clermont.
City of Clermont does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of these reports, soil
samples, or any other site condition information or data made available including, but
not limited to, underground utility location. The submission of a bid shall be taken as
prima-facie evidence of compliance with this section.
B. The Contractor acknowledges that he has satisfied himself as to the nature and
location of the work; the general and local conditions, including but not restricted to,
those bearing upon transportation, disposal, handling and storage of materials;
availability of labor, water, electric power, roads; and uncertainties of weather, river
stages, tides or similar physical conditions at the site; the conformation and conditions
of the ground; the character of equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and
during prosecution of the work.
C. The Contractor further acknowledges that he has satisfied himself as to the character,
quality and quantity of surface and subsurface materials, obstacles, or conditions to be
encountered.
D. Any failure by the Contractor to acquaint himself with any aspect of the work or with
any of the applicable conditions shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for
adequately evaluating the difficulty or cost of successfully performing the work under
the Contract Documents, nor shall it be considered the basis for any claim for
additional time or compensation.
E. The City assumes no responsibility for any conclusions or interpretations made by the
Contractor on the basis of the information made available by the City. The City also
assumes no responsibility for any understanding or representations made by its
officers or agents during or prior to the execution of this Contract, unless such
understanding or interpretations are made in writing.
18 PROTECTION OF EXISTING STRUCTURES UTILITIES, WORK AND VEGETATION
B-14
r ~ i
A. Location of existing structures and utilities provided in the Contract Documents are
approximate only. Any damage to existing structures or work of any kind, or the
interruption of a utility service resulting from failure to comply with the requirements
of the Contract Documents, shall be repaired or restored promptly by, and at the
expense of the Contractor.
B. The Contractor will preserve and protect all existing vegetation such as trees, shrubs
and grass on or adjacent to the site which do not unreasonably interfere with the
construction as may be determined by the Engineer. The Contractor will be responsible
for all unauthorized cutting or damaging of trees and shrubs, including damage due to
careless operation of equipment, stockpiling of materials or tracking of grass areas by
equipment.
C. Care will be taken by the Contractor in felling trees authorized for removal to avoid
unnecessary damage to vegetation that is to remain in place. Any limbs or branches of
trees broken during such operations shall be trimmed without cutting into the trunk
and left with a clean cut and a small stub. The Contractor will be liable for, or may be
required to replace or restore at his own expense, all vegetation that may be destroyed
or damaged due to the Contractor's failure to protect and preserve same as required
herein.
D. Where the Contractor hauls material or equipment to the project over roads and
bridges on the State road system, City/County road system or City/County street
system, and such use causes damage, he shall immediately, at his expense, repair
such road or bridge to as good a condition as before the hauling began. Such hauling
shall be conducted in accordance with all applicable environmental and safety
regulations
E. The Contractor shall fully protect the work from loss or damage and shall bear the cost
of any such loss or damage until final payment has been made. If the Contractor or
any one for whom the Contractor is legally liable for is responsible for any loss or
damage to the work, or other work or materials of the City or City's separate
contractors, the Contractor shall be charged with the same, and any monies necessary
to replace such loss or damage shall be deducted from any amounts due the
contractor.
F. All existing monuments shown on these plans are to be preserved, if possible. Any
monuments damaged or destroyed without the express written permission of City of
Clermont, including but not limited to horizontal and vertical control points and
property corners, are to be restored at the expense of the Contractor by a professional
surveyor and mapper, licensed to do business in the State of Florida.
19. OTHER WORK
A. The Contractor will cooperate with City forces or others who may be engaged in
authorized work prior to final completion of the project.
B. The Contractor shall cooperate with the owners of any underground or overhead utility
lines in their removal and rearrangement operations in order that these operations
may progress in a reasonable manner and that service rendered by these parties will
not be interrupted.
B-15
,,
C. The City may perform other work related to the project at the site by the City's own
forces, have other work performed by utility owners or let other direct contracts. If the
fact that such other work is to be performed is not noted in the Contract Documents,
notice thereof will be given to the Contractor. If the Contractor believes that such
performance will involve additional expense to the Contractor or require additional
time, the Contractor shall send written notice of that fact to the City and the Engineer
within forty-eight (48) hours of being notified of the other work. If the Contractor fails
to send the above required forty-eight (48) hour notice, the Contractor will be deemed
to have waived any rights it otherwise may have had to seek an extension to the
contract time or adjustment to the contract amount. The Contractor shall afford each
utility owner and other contractors (or the City, if the City is performing the additional
work with the City's employees) proper and safe access to the site and a reasonable
opportunity for the introduction and storage of materials and equipment and the
execution of such work and shall properly connect and coordinate its work with theirs.
The Contractor shall not endanger any work of others by cutting, excavating or
otherwise altering their work and will only cut or alter their work with the written
consent of the Engineer and the others whose work will be affected.
D. If any part of the Contractor's work depends, for proper execution or results, upon the
work of any other contractor other than a subcontractor or utility owner, the
Contractor shall inspect and promptly report to the Engineer, in writing, any delays,
defects or other problems in such other work that render it impossible for the
Contractor to obtain proper execution or results. The Contractor's failure to report will
constitute an acceptance of the other work as fit and proper for integration with the
Contractor's work.
20. TERMINATION
A. Termination for Default
1. The Contractor shall be considered in material default of the Contract and such
default shall be considered cause for the City to terminate the Contract, in whole

City determines that the Contractor has not taken substantial steps toward
effecting a remedy or cure of the default or defaults in his performance within
seven (7) calendar days following receipt by the Contractor of written notice of
default or defaults, then the City, at its option, without releasing or waiving its
rights and remedies against the Contractor's sureties, and without prejudice to any
other right it may be entitled to hereunder or by law, may terminate the
Contractor's right to proceed under this Contract, in whole or in part, and may take
possession of the work and any materials, tools, equipment, and appliances of the
Contractor, take assignments of any of the Contractor's subcontracts and purchase
orders and complete the Contractor's work by whatever means, method or agency
which the City, in its sole discretion, may choose.
3. If the City deems any of the foregoing remedies necessary, the Contractor agrees
it shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until after the work is
completed. All money expended and all of the costs, losses, damages and extra
expenses, including all management, administrative and other overhead and other
direct and indirect expenses, (including engineering, architectural and attorney's
fees) or damages incurred by the City incident to such completion, shall be
deducted from the contract price, and if such expenditures exceed the unpaid
balance of the contract price, the Contractor agrees to pay promptly to the City on
demand, the full amount of such excess, including costs of collection, attorneys'
fees (including appeal) and interest thereon at the maximum legal rate of interest
until paid.
4. The liability of the Contractor hereunder shall extend to and include the full
amount of any and all sums paid, expenses and losses incurred, damages
sustained and obligations assumed by the City in good faith under the belief that
such payments or assumptions were necessary or required, in completing the work
and providing labor, materials, equipment, supplies, and other items therefore or
relating to the work, and in settlement, discharge, or compromise of any claims,
demands, suits or judgments pertaining to or arising out of the work hereunder.
5. If after notice of termination of the Contractor's right to proceed pursuant to this
subparagraph A it is determined for any reason that the Contractor was not in
default or that his default was excusable, or that the City is not entitled to the
remedies against the Contractor provided herein, then the Contractor's remedies
against the City shall be the same as and limited to those afforded the Contractor
pursuant to the Termination for Convenience subparagraph B below.
B-17
I . ~
1
B. Termination for Convenience and Right of Suspension
1. The City shall have the right to terminate or suspend this Contract, in whole or in
part, without cause upon seven (7) calendar day's written notice to the Contractor.
2. In the event of such termination or suspension for convenience, the Contractor's
sole recovery against the City shall be limited to that portion of the contract price
earned through the date of termination or suspension, together with any retainage
withheld and reasonable termination or suspension expenses incurred, but the
Contractor shall not be entitled to any other or further recovery against the City,
including, but not limited to, damages and any anticipated profit or work not
performed.
