known technical or trade meaning are used to describe work, materials, or equipment, such words
shall be interpreted in accordance with such meaning. References to codes of any technical
society, organization, or association, or to the code of any governmental authority, whether such
reference be specific or by implication, shall mean the latest standard specification, manual, or
code in effect at the time of opening of Proposals (or on the effective date of the agreement if
there were no Proposals), except as may be otherwise specifically stated. However, no provision
of any referenced standard specification, manual, or code (whether or not specifically
incorporated by reference in the contract documents) shall change the duties and responsibilities
of COUNTY, CONTRACTOR, or ENGINEER, or any of their agents or employees from those
set forth in the Contract Documents. Clarifications and interpretations of the Contract Documents

furnish copies to ENGINEER and CONTRACTOR. If ENGINEER and COUNTY find that the
results of such investigations or tests indicate that there are subsurface or latent physical

of the CONTRACTOR to comply with the foregoing insurance requirement shall in no way waive the
COUNTY’S rights hereunder.
5.8 County’s Liability Insurance: The COUNTY, at its option, may but shall not be required to
purchase and maintain such liability insurance as will protect it against claims which may arise
from operations under this Agreement. Purchasing and maintaining such insurance, however,
will not relieve the CONTRACTOR from purchasing and maintaining the insurance hereinbefore
specified.

and maintain such insurance as will insure it against loss of use of COUNTY’S property due to

and any plans to file claims, if applicable, project progress report, job problems and quality
control review.
LABOR, MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT:
6.3 CONTRACTOR shall provide competent, suitably qualified personnel to survey and lay out the
Work, and perform construction as required by the Contract Documents. CONTRACTOR shall
at all times maintain good discipline and order at the site. Except in connection with the safety or
protection of persons, or the Work, or property at the site or adjacent thereto, and except as
otherwise indicated in the supplementary conditions, if any, all Work at the site shall be
performed during regular working hours and CONTRACTOR will not permit overtime Work or
the performance of Work on Saturday, Sunday, or any legal holiday without COUNTY’S written
consent given after prior written notice to ENGINEER.
6.4 Colorado labor shall be employed to perform the Work to the extent of not less than eighty
percent of each type or class of labor in the several classifications of skilled and common labor
employed on the Project. “Colorado labor” means any person who is a resident of the State of
Colorado, at the time of employment, without discrimination as to race, color, creed, sex, age, or
religion except when sex or age is a bona fide occupational qualification.
6.5 CONTRACTOR shall furnish all materials, equipment, labor, transportation, construction
equipment and machinery, tools, appliances, fuel, power, light, heat, telephone, water, and
sanitary facilities, and all other facilities and incidentals necessary for the execution, testing,
initial operation, and completion of Work.

6.9 CONTRACTOR shall at all times maintain a full-time management and supervisory staff of
competent persons at the Project site to coordinate and provide general direction of the Work and
progress of Subcontractors on the Project.
6.10 CONTRACTOR agrees that only competent and skilled workmen who satisfactorily perform
their duties shall be employed on the Project and CONTRACTOR shall ensure that there are an
adequate and competent supply of skilled workmen and materials as necessary to carry out the
Work on a continuous basis.
EQUIVALENT MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT:
6.11 Whenever materials or equipment are specified or described in the drawings or specifications by
using the name of a proprietary item, or the name of a particular manufacturer, fabricator,
supplier, or distributor, the naming of the item is intended to establish the type, function, and
quality required. Unless the name is followed by words indicating that no substitution is
permitted, materials or equipment of other manufacturers, fabricators, suppliers, or distributors
may be accepted by ENGINEER and COUNTY if sufficient information is submitted by
CONTRACTOR to ENGINEER and COUNTY to determine that the material or equipment
proposed is equivalent to that named. The procedure for review by ENGINEER and COUNTY
will be as set forth in paragraphs 6.11.1 and 6.11.2 below.
6.11.1 If CONTRACTOR wishes to furnish or use a substitute item of material or equipment,
CONTRACTOR shall make written application to ENGINEER and COUNTY for
acceptance thereof, certifying that the proposed substitute will perform adequately the
functions called for by the general design, be similar and of equal substance to that
specified and be suited to the same use and capable of performing the same function as
that specified. The application will state whether or not acceptance of the substitute for
use in the Work will require a change in the drawings or specifications to adapt the
design to the substitute and whether or not incorporation or use of the substitute in
connection with the Work is subject to payment of any license fee or royalty. All
variations of the proposed substitute from that specified shall be identified in the
application and available maintenance, repair and replacement service will be indicated.
The application will also contain an itemized estimate of all costs or savings that will
result directly or indirectly from acceptance of such substitute, including costs of
redesign and claims of other contractors affected by the resulting change, all of which
shall be considered by ENGINEER and COUNTY in evaluating the proposed substitute.
ENGINEER may require CONTRACTOR to furnish, at CONTRACTOR'S expense,
additional data about the proposed substitute. ENGINEER and COUNTY will be the sole
judge of acceptability, and no substitute will be ordered or installed without
ENGINEER’S and COUNTY’s prior written acceptance. COUNTY may require
CONTRACTOR to furnish, at CONTRACTOR’S expense, a special performance
guarantee or other surety with respect to any substitute.
6.11.2 ENGINEER will record time required by ENGINEER and ENGINEER’S consultants in
evaluating substitutions proposed by CONTRACTOR and in making changes in the
drawings or specifications occasioned thereby, whether or not ENGINEER accepts a
proposed substitute. CONTRACTOR shall reimburse COUNTY for the charges of
ENGINEER and ENGINEER'S consultants for evaluating any proposed substitute.
CONCERNING SUBCONTRACTORS:
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
12
6.12 CONTRACTOR shall not employ any Subcontractor or other person or organization (including
those who are to furnish the principal items of materials or equipment), whether initially or as a
substitute, against whom COUNTY or ENGINEER may have reasonable objection. A
Subcontractor or other person or organization identified in writing to COUNTY and ENGINEER
by CONTRACTOR prior to the Notice of Award, and not objected to in writing by COUNTY or
ENGINEER prior to the Notice of Award, will be deemed acceptable to COUNTY and
ENGINEER. Acceptance of any Subcontractor, other person or organization by COUNTY or
ENGINEER shall not constitute a waiver of any right of COUNTY or ENGINEER to reject
defective work. If COUNTY or ENGINEER, after due investigation, has reasonable objection to
any Subcontractor, or other person or organization proposed by CONTRACTOR after the Notice
of Award, CONTRACTOR shall submit an acceptable substitute, and the Contract Price shall be
increased or decreased by the difference in cost occasioned by such substitution, and an
appropriate change order shall be issued. CONTRACTOR shall not be required to employ any
Subcontractor, other person or organization against whom CONTRACTOR has reasonable
objection.
6.13 CONTRACTOR shall be fully responsible for all acts and omissions of its Subcontractors, and of
persons and organizations directly or indirectly employed by them, and of persons and
organizations for whose acts any of them may be liable to the same extent that CONTRACTOR is
responsible for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by CONTRACTOR.
Nothing in the Contract Documents shall create a contractual relationship between COUNTY or
ENGINEER and any Subcontractor or other person or organization having a direct contract with
CONTRACTOR, nor shall it create any obligation on the part of COUNTY or ENGINEER to pay
or to see to the payment of any monies due any Subcontractor, or other person or organization,
except as may otherwise by required by law. COUNTY or ENGINEER may furnish to any
Subcontractor or other person or organization, to the extent practicable, evidence of amounts paid
to CONTRACTOR on account of specific Work done.
6.14 The divisions and sections of the specifications and the identifications of any drawings shall not
control CONTRACTOR in dividing the Work among Subcontractors, or delineating the Work to
be performed by any specific trade.
6.15 All Work performed for CONTRACTOR by a Subcontractor will be pursuant to an appropriate
agreement between CONTRACTOR and the Subcontractor which specifically binds the
Subcontractor to the applicable terms and conditions of the Contract Documents for the benefit of
the COUNTY and ENGINEER. CONTRACTOR shall pay each Subcontractor a just share of
any insurance monies received by CONTRACTOR on account of losses under policies issued
pursuant to paragraph 5.6.
PATENT FEES AND ROYALTIES:
6.16 CONTRACTOR shall pay all license fees and royalties, and assume all costs incident to the use
in the performance of the Work, or the incorporation in the Work of any invention, design,
process, product, or device which is the subject of patent rights or copyrights held by others. If a
particular invention, design, process, product, or device is specified in the Contract Documents
for use in the performance of the Work, and if to the actual knowledge of COUNTY or
ENGINEER its use is subject to patent rights or copyrights calling for the payment of any license
fee or royalty to others, the existence of such rights shall be disclosed by COUNTY in the
Contract Documents. CONTRACTOR shall indemnify and hold harmless COUNTY and
ENGINEER and anyone directly or indirectly employed by either of them from and against all
claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including attorney’s fees) arising out of any infringement
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
13
of patent rights or copyrights incident to the use in the performance of the Work, or resulting
from the incorporation in the Work of any invention, design, process, product, or device not
specified in the Contract Documents, and shall defend all such claims in connection with any
alleged infringement of such rights.
PERMITS:
6.17 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR shall obtain and pay for
all construction permits and licenses except the COUNTY will pay for the Town of Eagle
Building Permit. CONTRACTOR shall obtain and pay for Eagle County licenses. COUNTY
shall assist CONTRACTOR, when necessary, in obtaining such permits and licenses.
CONTRACTOR shall pay all governmental charges and inspection fees necessary for the
prosecution of the Work, which are applicable at the time of opening of Proposals.
CONTRACTOR shall pay all charges of utility service companies for connections to the Work,
and COUNTY shall pay all charges of such companies for capital costs related thereto.
LAWS AND REGULATIONS:
6.18 CONTRACTOR shall give all notices and comply with all laws, ordinances, rules, and
regulations applicable to the Work. If CONTRACTOR observes that the Specifications or
Drawings are at variance therewith, CONTRACTOR shall give ENGINEER and COUNTY
prompt written notice thereof, and any necessary changes shall be adjusted by an appropriate
Modification. If CONTRACTOR performs any Work knowing, or having reason to know, that it
is contrary to such laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations, and without such notice to
ENGINEER and COUNTY, CONTRACTOR shall bear all costs arising therefrom; however, it
shall not be CONTRACTOR'S primary responsibility to make certain that the Specifications and
Drawings are in accordance with such laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations.
TAXES:
6.19 CONTRACTOR shall pay all sales, consumer, use, and other similar taxes required to be paid by
it in accordance with the law of the place of the Project. COUNTY of this Project is Tax Exempt.
USE OF PREMISES:
6.20 CONTRACTOR shall confine construction equipment, the storage of materials and equipment,
and the operations of workmen to areas permitted by law, ordinances, permits, or the
requirements of the Contract Documents, and shall not unreasonably encumber the Site with
construction equipment or other materials or equipment.
6.21 During the progress of the Work, CONTRACTOR shall keep the premises free from
accumulations of waste materials, rubbish, and other debris resulting from the Work. At the
completion of the Work, CONTRACTOR shall remove all waste materials, rubbish, and debris
from and about the Site as well as all tools, appliances, construction equipment, and machinery,
and surplus materials, and shall leave the site clean and ready for use and (or) occupancy by
COUNTY. CONTRACTOR shall restore to their original condition those portions of the Project
Site not designated for alteration by the Contract Documents.
6.22 CONTRACTOR shall not load, nor permit any part of any structure to be loaded, in any manner
that will endanger the structure, nor shall CONTRACTOR subject any part of the Work or
adjacent property to stresses or pressures that will endanger it.

operations of any adjacent businesses.
6.25 Intentionally Omitted.
6.26 CONTRACTOR will locate all underground pipelines, conduits, ducts, cables, wires, manholes,
vaults, tanks, tunnels, or other such facilities or attachments, and any easements containing such
facilities, including those that convey electricity, gasses, steam, liquid petroleum products,
telephone or other communications, cable television, water, wastewater, storm water, other
liquids or chemicals, or traffic or other control systems which shall collectively be known as the
“Underground Facilities” prior to performing the Work. Unless it is otherwise expressly provided
in the Contract Documents;
6.26.1 COUNTY shall not be responsible for providing any information to
CONTRACTOR regarding the Underground Facilities; and
6.26.2 The cost of all of the following will be included in the Contract Price, and
CONTRACTOR shall have full responsibility for:
a. Locating all Underground Facilities;
b. Coordination of the Work with the Countys of such Underground Facilities,
including COUNTY, during construction; and
c. Assurance that all safety and protection of all such Underground Facilities
and repairing any damage thereto resulting from the Work.
RECORD DOCUMENTS:
6.27 CONTRACTOR shall keep one record copy of all Specifications, Drawings, Addenda,
Modifications, Shop Drawings, and samples at the Site in good order and annotated to show all
changes made during the construction process. These shall be available to ENGINEER for
examination and shall be delivered to ENGINEER for COUNTY upon completion of the Work.
SAFETY AND PROTECTION:
6.28 CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for initiating, maintaining, and supervising all safety
precautions and programs in connection with the Work. CONTRACTOR shall take all necessary
precautions for the safety of, and shall provide the necessary protection to prevent damage,
injury, or loss to:
6.28.1 all employees and Subcontractors on the Work and other persons who may be affected
thereby,
6.28.2 all the work and all materials or equipment to be incorporated therein, whether in storage
on or off the Site, and
6.28.3 other property at the Site, or adjacent thereto, including trees, shrubs, lawns, walks,
pavements, roadways, structures, and utilities not designated for removal, relocation or
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
15
replacement in the course of construction. CONTRACTOR shall comply with all
applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and orders of any public body having
jurisdiction for the safety of persons or property, or to protect them from damage, injury,
or loss; and shall erect and maintain all necessary safeguards for such safety and
protection. CONTRACTOR shall notify COUNTY of adjacent property and utilities
when prosecution of the Work may affect them. All damage, injury, or loss to any
property referred to in paragraph 6.28.2 or 6.28.3 caused, directly or indirectly, in whole
or in part, by CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly
employed by any of them, or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, shall be
remedied by CONTRACTOR (except damage or loss attributable to the sole fault of
drawings or specifications, or solely to the acts or omissions of COUNTY or
ENGINEER). CONTRACTOR'S duties and responsibilities for the safety and protection
of the Work shall continue until such time as all the Work is completed and ENGINEER
has issued a notice to COUNTY and CONTRACTOR, in accordance with paragraph
14.13, that the Work is acceptable.
6.29 CONTRACTOR shall designate a responsible member of ITS organization at the site whose duty
shall be the prevention of accidents. This person shall be CONTRACTOR'S superintendent,
unless otherwise designated in writing by CONTRACTOR to COUNTY.
EMERGENCIES:
6.30 In emergencies affecting the safety or protection of persons, or the Work, or property at the Site
or adjacent thereto, CONTRACTOR, without special instruction or authorization from
ENGINEER to COUNTY, is obligated to act to prevent threatened damage, injury, or loss.
CONTRACTOR shall give ENGINEER and COUNTY prompt written notice of any significant
changes in the Work, or deviations from the Contract Documents caused thereby.
SHOP DRAWINGS AND SAMPLES:
6.31 After checking and verifying all field measurements, CONTRACTOR shall submit to
ENGINEER for review and approval, in accordance with the accepted schedule of Shop Drawing
submissions, five copies of all Shop Drawings, which shall have been checked by, and stamped
with the approval of, CONTRACTOR, and identified as ENGINEER may require. The data
shown on the Shop Drawings will be complete with respect to dimensions, design criteria,
materials of construction, and like information to enable ENGINEER to review the information as
required.
6.32 CONTRACTOR shall also submit to ENGINEER for review and approval, with such promptness
as to cause no delay in Work, all samples required by the Contract Documents. All samples will
have been checked by, and stamped with the approval of CONTRACTOR, identified clearly as to
material, manufacturer, and any pertinent catalog numbers, and the use for which intended.
6.33 At the time of each submission, CONTRACTOR shall, in writing, call ENGINEER’S and
COUNTY’s attention to any deviations that the Shop Drawings or samples may have from the
requirements of the Contract Documents.
6.34 ENGINEER with prior approval of COUNTY will review and approve, with reasonable
promptness, Shop Drawings and samples, but ENGINEER'S and/or COUNTY’s review and
approval shall be only for conformance with the design concept of the Project, and for
compliance with the information given in the Contract Documents, and shall not extend to means,
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
16
methods, sequences, techniques, or procedures of construction, or to safety precautions of
programs incident thereto. The review and approval of a separate item as such will not indicate
approval of the assembly in which the item functions. CONTRACTOR shall make any
corrections required by ENGINEER or COUNTY, and shall return the required number of
corrected copies of Shop Drawings, and resubmit new samples for review and approval.
CONTRACTOR shall direct specific attention in writing to revisions other than the corrections
called for by ENGINEER or COUNTY on previous submittals. CONTRACTOR'S stamp of
approval on any Shop Drawing or sample shall constitute a representation to COUNTY and
ENGINEER that CONTRACTOR has either determined and verified all quantities, dimensions,
field construction criteria, materials catalog numbers, and similar data, or assumes full
responsibility for doing so, and that CONTRACTOR has reviewed or coordinated each Shop
Drawing or sample with the requirements of the Work and the Contract Documents.
6.35 Where a Shop Drawing or sample is required by the specifications, no related Work shall be
commenced until the submittal has been reviewed and approved by ENGINEER as to Shop
Drawing and ENGINEER and COUNTY as to samples.
6.36 ENGINEER'S review and approval of Shop Drawings or ENGINEER’S and COUNTY’S review
and approval samples shall not relieve CONTRACTOR from responsibility for any deviations
from the Contract Documents unless CONTRACTOR has, in writing, called ENGINEER'S and
(or) COUNTY’s attention to such deviation at the time of submission, and ENGINEER with prior
approval of COUNTY has given written concurrence and approval to the specific deviation, nor
shall any concurrence or approval by ENGINEER or COUNTY relive CONTRACTOR from
responsibility for errors or omissions in the Shop Drawings.
CONTINUING THE WORK:
6.37 CONTRACTOR shall carry on the Work and maintain the progress schedule during all disputes
or disagreements with COUNTY. No Work shall be delayed or postponed pending resolution of
any disputes or disagreements, except as CONTRACTOR and COUNTY may otherwise agree in
writing.
INDEMNIFICATION:
6.38 To the fullest extent permitted by law, CONTRACTOR shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless
COUNTY and ENGINEER, and their officials, agents, and employees, from and against all claims,
damages, liabilities, losses, and expenses including, but not limited to, attorney’s fees and costs
arising out of, or resulting from, the performance or non-performance of the Work, and including,
but not limited to, claims, damages, liabilities, losses, or expenses attributable to bodily injury,
sickness, disease, or death, or to injury to or destruction of tangible property, including the loss of
use resulting therefrom or is caused, in whole or in part, by any negligent act or omission of
CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or
anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable. Nothing in the Contract Documents shall be
interpreted that the COUNTY or ENGINEER waives its sovereign immunity granted under
Colorado Governmental Immunity Act if applicable or other applicable law.
6.39 In any and all claims against COUNTY or ENGINEER, or any of their agents or employees, by
any employee of CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by
any of them, or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, the indemnification obligation
under paragraph 6.38 shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
17
damages, compensation, or benefits payable by or for CONTRACTOR or any Subcontractor
under worker’s compensation acts, disability benefit acts, or other employee benefit acts.
6.40 The obligations of CONTRACTOR under paragraph 6.38 shall not extend to the liability of
ENGINEER, its agents, or employees arising out of the preparation or approval of maps,
drawings, opinions, reports, surveys, change orders, designs, or specifications.
ARTICLE 7 – WORK BY OTHERS
7.1 COUNTY may perform additional Work related to the Project by ITSELF, or have additional
work performed by utility service companies, or let other direct contracts therefore which shall
contain general conditions similar to these. CONTRACTOR shall afford the utility service
companies and the other contractors who are parties to such direct contracts (or COUNTY, if
COUNTY is performing the additional work with COUNTY'S employees) reasonable
opportunity for the introduction and storage of materials and equipment, and the execution of
work, and shall properly connect and coordinate CONTRACTOR’S work with theirs.
7.2 If any part of CONTRACTOR'S Work depends, for proper execution or results, upon the Work of
any such other contractor or utility service company (or COUNTY), CONTRACTOR shall
inspect and promptly report to ENGINEER and COUNTY in writing any patent or apparent
defects or deficiencies in such Work that render it unsuitable for such proper execution and
results. CONTRACTOR'S failure to so report shall constitute an acceptance of the other Work as
fit and proper for integration with CONTRACTOR'S Work, except for latent or non-apparent
defects and deficiencies in the other Work.
7.3 CONTRACTOR shall do all cutting, fitting, and patching of its Work that may be required to
make its several parts come together properly and integrate with such other Work.
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 ENGINEER
and COUNTY and the others whose work will be affected.
7.4 If the performance of additional work by other contractors or utility service companies or
COUNTY was not noted in the Contract Documents, written notice thereof shall be given to
CONTRACTOR prior to starting any such additional work. If CONTRACTOR believes that the
performance of such additional work by COUNTY or others involves additional expense to
CONTRACTOR, or requires an extension of the Contract Time, CONTRACTOR may make a
claim therefore as provided in Articles 11 and 12.
ARTICLE 8 – COUNTY’S RESPONSIBILITIES
8.1 COUNTY shall issue communications to CONTRACTOR or through ENGINEER.
8.2 In case of termination of the employment of ENGINEER, COUNTY shall appoint an
ENGINEER whose status under the Contract Documents shall be that of the former ENGINEER.
8.3 COUNTY and all of its employees and agents shall have the right to full access and use of the
Project Site. Such use shall not constitute acceptance of the Work or any part thereof or waive
any of COUNTY’S rights or remedies under the Contract Documents.
ARTICLE 9 – ENGINEER’S STATUS DURING CONSTRUCTION
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
18
COUNTY’S REPRESENTATIVE:
9.1 The duties and responsibilities and the limitations of authority of ENGINEER as COUNTY'S
representative during construction are set forth in the Contract Documents, and shall not be
extended without written consent of COUNTY and ENGINEER. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, in all instances in the Contract Documents where ENGINEER has the
authority to make decisions concerning quality of and acceptance of the Work performed by
CONTRACTOR, ENGINEER shall first discuss such decision and proposed acceptance with
COUNTY and obtain its approval prior to communicating with the CONTRACTOR. Further, in
all instances in the Contract Documents where ENGINEER has the authority to make a decision
that impacts the Project budget or Contract Price or payment to the CONTRACTOR, then
ENGINEER shall first discuss the payment or costs with COUNTY and obtain its approval prior
to approving any payment, additive or deductive Work.
VISITS TO SITE:
9.2 ENGINEER will make visits to the site at intervals appropriate to the various stages of
construction to observe the progress and quality of the executed Work and to determine, in
general, if the Work is proceeding in accordance with the Contract Documents. ENGINEER will
not be required to make exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or
quantity of the Work. ENGINEER'S efforts will be directed toward providing for COUNTY a
greater degree of confidence that the completed Work will conform to the Contract Documents.
On the basis of such visits and on-site observations, as an experienced and qualified design
professional, ENGINEER will keep COUNTY informed of the progress of the Work.
CLARIFICATIONS AND INTERPRETATIONS:
9.3 ENGINEER will issue, with reasonable promptness, such written clarifications or interpretations
of the Contract Documents (in the form of drawings or otherwise) as ENGINEER and COUNTY
may determine necessary, which shall be consistent with, or reasonably inferable from, the
overall intent of the Contract Documents. If CONTRACTOR believes that a written clarification
or interpretation justifies an increase in the Contract Price or Contract Time, CONTRACTOR
may make a claim therefore, as provided in Article 11 or Article 12.
REJECTING DEFECTIVE WORK:
9.4 ENGINEER after conferring and receiving approval of COUNTY will have authority to
disapprove or reject Work which is defective, and will also have authority to require special
inspection or testing of the Work as fabricated, installed, or completed.
DECISIONS ON DISAGREEMENTS:
9.5 ENGINEER will be the initial interpreter of the requirements of the Contract Documents
concerning the acceptability of the Work thereunder. Claims, disputes, and other matters relating
to the acceptability of the Work, or the interpretation of the requirements of the Contract
Documents pertaining to the execution and progress of the Work, shall be referred initially to
ENGINEER in writing with a request for a formal decision which ENGINEER and COUNTY
will together render in writing within a reasonable time. The final decision concerning any claim,
dispute or other matter relating to acceptability of the Work or interpretation of the requirements
of the Contract Documents pertaining to the execution and progress of the Work shall be
COUNTY’s.

19
LIMITATIONS ON ENGINEER'S RESPONSIBILITIES:
9.6 Neither ENGINEER'S nor COUNTY’s authority to act under this Article 9, or elsewhere in the
Contract Documents, nor any decision made by ENGINEER or COUNTY in good faith either to
exercise or not exercise such authority shall give rise to any duty or responsibility of ENGINEER
or COUNTY to CONTRACTOR, any Subcontractor, any manufacturer, fabricator, supplier, or
distributor, or any of their agents or employees, or any other person performing any of the Work.
9.7 Whenever, in the Contract Documents, the terms “as ordered”, “as directed”, “as required”, “as
allowed”, or terms of like effect or import are used, or the adjectives “reasonable”, “suitable”,
“acceptable”, “proper”, or “satisfactory”, or adjectives of like effect or import are used to
describe requirement, direction, review, or judgment of ENGINEER as to the Work, it is intended
that such requirement direction, review, or judgment will be solely to evaluate the Work for
compliance with the Contract Documents (unless there is a specific statement indicating
otherwise).
9.8 ENGINEER and COUNTY will not be responsible for CONTRACTOR'S means, methods,
techniques, sequences or procedures of construction, or the safety precautions and programs
incident thereto, and ENGINEER and COUNTY will not be responsible for CONTRACTOR'S
failure to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
9.9 ENGINEER and COUNTY will not be responsible for the acts or omissions of CONTRACTOR,
or of any Subcontractor, or of the agents or employees of any CONTRACTOR or Subcontractor,
or of any other persons at the site or otherwise performing any of the Work.
ARTICLE 10 – CHANGES IN THE WORK
10.1 Without invalidating the Contract Documents, COUNTY may, at any time or from time to time,
order additions, deletions, or revisions in the Work; these will be authorized by written change
orders. Upon receipt of a change order, CONTRACTOR shall proceed with the Work involved.
All such Work shall be executed under the applicable conditions of the Contract Documents. If
any change order causes an increase or decrease in the Contract Price, or an extension or
shortening of the Contract Time, an equitable adjustment will be made as provided in Article 11
or Article 12 on the basis of a claim made by either party.
10.2 ENGINEER with approval of COUNTY may authorize minor changes in the Work, not involving
an adjustment in the Contract Price or the Contract Time, which are consistent with the overall
intent of the Contract Documents. These may be accomplished by a field order, and shall be
binding on COUNTY, and also on CONTRACTOR who shall perform the change promptly. If
CONTRACTOR believes that a field order justifies an increase in the Contract Price or Contract
Time, CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefore as provided in Article 11 or Article 12.
10.3 Additional Work performed without authorization of a change order will not entitle
CONTRACTOR to an increase in the Contract Price, or an extension of the Contract Time,
except in the case of an emergency as provided in paragraph 6.30, and except as provided in
paragraph 13.9.
10.4 COUNTY may execute appropriate change orders prepared by ENGINEER covering changes in
the Work which are required by COUNTY, or required because of unforeseen physical conditions
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
20
or emergencies, or because of uncovering Work found not to be defective, or as provided in
paragraphs 11.10 or 11.11.
ARTICLE 11 – CHANGE OF CONTRACT PRICE
11.1 The Contract Price constitutes the total compensation (subject to authorized adjustments) payable
to CONTRACTOR for performing the Work. All duties, responsibilities, and obligations
assigned to or undertaken by CONTRACTOR shall be at its expense without change in the
Contract Price.
11.2 The Contract Price may only be changed by a Change Order. Any claim for an increase in the
Contract Price shall be based on written notice delivered to COUNTY and ENGINEER within
seven (7) days of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the claim. Any change in the Contract
Price resulting from any such claim shall first be approved by ENGINEER and COUNTY before
being incorporated in a change order.
11.3 No change orders or other form of order or directive which requires additional compensable
Work to be performed may be issued or be effective unless accompanied by a written assurance
to the CONTRACTOR that lawful appropriations to cover the costs of the additional Work have
been made.
11.4 The value of any Work covered by a change order, or of any claim for an increase or decrease in
the Contract Price, shall be determined in one of the following ways:
11.4.1 Where the Work involved is covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents,
by application of unit prices to the quantities of the items involved (subject to the
provisions of paragraph 11.10).
11.4.2 By mutual acceptance of a lump sum.
11.4.3 On the basis of the Cost of the Work (determined as provided in paragraphs 11.5 and
11.6) plus a Contractor’s Fee for overhead and profit as provided in paragraph 11.7.
11.4.4 Regardless of method for determining the value of any Work covered by a change order,
CONTRACTOR shall provide COUNTY with written documentation concerning the
claim, including but not limited to the specific reasons for the claim.
11.5 The term “Cost of the Work” means the sum of any and all costs necessarily incurred and paid by
CONTRACTOR in the proper performance of the Work. Except as otherwise may be agreed to
in writing by COUNTY, such costs shall be in amounts no higher than those prevailing in the
locality for the Project, shall include only the following items, and shall not include any of the
costs itemized in paragraph 11.6:
11.5.1 Payroll costs for employees in the direct employ of CONTRACTOR on-site in the
performance of the Work under schedules of job classifications agreed upon by
COUNTY and CONTRACTOR. Payroll costs for employees not employed full time on
the Work shall be apportioned on the basis of their time spent on the Work. Payroll costs
shall include, but not be limited to, salaries and wages, plus the cost of fringe benefits
which shall include social security contributions, unemployment, excise and payroll
taxes, worker’s compensation, health and retirement benefits, bonuses, sick leave,

accrue to COUNTY, and CONTRACTOR shall make provisions so that they may be
obtained.
11.5.3 Payments made by CONTRACTOR to the Subcontractors for Work performed by
Subcontractors. If required by COUNTY, CONTRACTOR shall obtain competitive bids
from Subcontractors acceptable to CONTRACTOR, and shall deliver such bids to
COUNTY, who will then determine, with the advice of ENGINEER, which bids will be
accepted. If a subcontract provides that the Subcontractor is to be paid on the basis of
Cost of the Work, the Subcontractor’s Cost of the Work plus a fee shall be determined in
the same manner as CONTRACTOR'S Cost of the Work. All Subcontracts shall be
subject to the other provisions of the Contract Documents insofar as applicable.
11.5.4 Supplemental costs including the following:
11.5.4.1 The proportion of necessary transportation, travel, and subsistence expenses of
CONTRACTOR'S employees incurred in discharge of duties connected with the

whether rented from CONTRACTOR or others in accordance with rental
agreements approved by COUNTY with the advice of ENGINEER, and the costs
of transportation, loading, unloading, installation, dismantling and removal
thereof, all in accordance with terms of said rental agreements. The rental of any
such equipment, machinery or parts shall cease when the use thereof is no longer
necessary for the Work.
11.5.4.4 Deposits lost for causes other than CONTRACTOR'S negligence, royalty
payments, and fees for permits and licenses.
11.5.4.5 Cost of premiums for additional bonds and insurance required because of
changes in the Work.
11.6 The term “Cost of the Work” shall not include any of the following:

principals (of partnership and sole proprietorship), general managers, ENGINEER's,
engineers, estimators, lawyers, auditors, accountants, purchasing and contracting agents,
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
22
expediters, timekeepers, clerks, and other personnel employed by CONTRACTOR
whether at the site or in CONTRACTOR’S principal or a branch office for general
administration of the Work, and not specifically included in the agreed upon schedule of
job classifications referred to in subparagraph 11.5.1. all of which are considered to be
administrative costs covered by the Contractor’s Fee.
11.6.2 Expenses of CONTRACTOR'S principal and branch office, other than CONTRACTOR'S
office at the site.
11.6.3 Any part of CONTRACTOR'S capital expenses including interest on CONTRACTOR'S

required by the Contract Documents to purchase and maintain the same (except for
additional bonds and insurance required because of changes in the Work).
11.6.5 Costs due to the negligent performance or non-performance of CONTRACTOR, any
Subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or for whose
acts any of them may be liable, including, but not limited to, the correction of defective
Work, disposal of materials or equipment wrongly supplied, and making good any
damage to property.
11.6.6 Other overhead or general expense costs of any kind, and the costs of any item not
specifically and expressly included in paragraph 11.5.
CONTRACTOR’S FEE:
11.7 The Contractor’s Fee allowed to CONTRACTOR for overhead and profit shall be determined as
follows:
11.7.1 A mutually acceptable fixed fee as provided in the SUPPLEMENTAL UNIT PRICING
for Construction Manager/General Contractor Overhead and Profit Fee.
11.7.2. No fee shall be payable on the basis of costs itemized under paragraphs 11.5.4 and 11.6.
11.8 The amount of credit to be allowed by CONTRACTOR to COUNTY for any such change which
results in a net decrease in cost will be the amount of the actual net decrease. When both
additions and credits are involved in any one change, the combined adjustment to overhead and
profit shall be figured on the basis of the net increase or decrease in allowable costs, if any.
ADJUSTMENT OF UNIT QUANTITIES:
11.9 Whenever the cost of any Work is to be determined based upon unit price, CONTRACTOR will
submit, in form acceptable to ENGINEER and COUNTY, an itemized cost breakdown together
with supporting data.
11.10 Where the quantity of Work with respect to any item that is covered by a unit price differs
materially and significantly from the quantity of such Work indicated in the Contract Documents,
an appropriate change order (additive or deductive) may be issued on recommendation of
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
23
ENGINEER with written approval of COUNTY. In no event will the unit price bid by
CONTRACTOR be modified, but the quantity of any item may be increased or decreased as set
forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the change modify the not to exceed
the Contract Price or otherwise be modified without a change order approved by COUNTY in
writing.
CASH ALLOWANCES:
11.11 It is understood that CONTRACTOR has included in the Contract Price all allowances so named
in the Contract Documents, and shall cause the Work so covered to be done by such
Subcontractors, manufacturers, fabricators, suppliers, or distributors, and for such sums within the
limit of the allowances as may be acceptable to ENGINEER and COUNTY. Upon final payment,
the Contract Price shall be adjusted as required, and an appropriate change order issued.
CONTRACTOR agrees that the original Contract Price includes such sums as CONTRACTOR
deems proper for costs and profit on account of cash allowances. No demand for additional cost
or profit in connection therewith will be valid.
ARTICLE 12 – CHANGE OF THE CONTRACT TIME
12.1 The Contract Time may only be changed by a change order. Any claim for an extension in the
Contract Time shall be based on written notice delivered to COUNTY and ENGINEER within
seven days of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the claim. Any change in the Contract
Time resulting from any such claim shall be incorporated in a change order.
12.2 All time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Agreement. The
provisions of Articles 11 and 12 are CONTRACTOR'S sole remedies for delay by any cause
whatsoever, including acts of COUNTY.
ARTICLE 13 – WARRANTY AND GUARANTEE; TESTS AND INSPECTION; CORRECTION,
REMOVAL OR ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE WORK
WARRANTY AND GUARANTEE:
13.1 CONTRACTOR warrants and guarantees to COUNTY and ENGINEER that all Work will be in
accordance with the Contract Documents and will not be defective. Prompt notice of all defects
shall be given to CONTRACTOR. All defective Work, whether or not in place, may be rejected,
corrected, or accepted as provided in this Article 13. Further, CONTRACTOR warrants to
COUNTY that (i) materials and equipment furnished under the Contract Documents shall be of
highest quality and new unless otherwise required or permitted by the Contract Documents; (ii)
the Work shall be free from defects and deficiencies; (iii) the Work shall conform to the
requirements of the Contract Documents, applicable laws, and applicable permits; and (iv) the
Work shall be performed in a good and workman like manner. All guarantees and warranties of
equipment or materials furnished to CONTRACTOR or any Subcontractor(s) by any
manufacturer or supplier shall be for the benefit of COUNTY. CONTRACTOR does hereby
covenant, warrant and agree that it shall repair or replace any and all of the Work, together with
other Work which may be displaced by such repair or replacement, without any cost to COUNTY
for a period of two years following the date of Substantial Completion of the Work. This
obligation shall survive both final payment for the Work or designated portion thereof and
termination of this Agreement.
ACCESS TO WORK:
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
24
13.2 COUNTY and ENGINEER'S representatives, other representatives of COUNTY, testing
agencies, and governmental agencies with jurisdictional interests will have access to the Work at
reasonable times for their observation, inspection and testing. CONTRACTOR shall provide
proper and safe conditions for such access.
TESTS AND INSPECTIONS:
13.3 CONTRACTOR shall give ENGINEER and COUNTY timely notice of readiness of Work for all
required inspections, tests or approvals.
13.4 Except as otherwise noted in the Agreement, if any law, ordinance, rule, regulation, code, or
order of any public body having jurisdiction requires any Work (or part thereof) to specifically be
inspected, tested, or approved, CONTRACTOR shall assume full responsibility therefore, pay all
costs in connection therewith, and furnish ENGINEER and COUNTY the required certificates of
inspection, testing, or approval. CONTRACTOR shall also be responsible for and shall pay all
costs in connection with any inspection or testing required in connection with COUNTY'S or
ENGINEER'S acceptance of a manufacturer, fabricator, supplier or distributor of materials or
equipment proposed to be incorporated in the Work, or of materials or equipment submitted for
approval prior to CONTRACTOR'S purchase thereof for incorporation of the Work. The cost of
all other inspections, tests, and approvals required by the Contract Documents shall be paid by
COUNTY (unless otherwise specified).
13.5 Any inspections, tests, or approvals, other than those required by law, ordinance, rule, regulation,
code, or order of any public body having jurisdiction, shall be performed by organizations
acceptable to COUNTY and CONTRACTOR (or by ENGINEER if so specified).
13.6 If any Work that is to be inspected, tested, or approved is covered without written concurrence of
ENGINEER and COUNTY, it must, if requested by ENGINEER or COUNTY, be uncovered for
observation. Such uncovering shall be at CONTRACTOR'S expense, unless CONTRACTOR
has given ENGINEER and COUNTY timely notice of CONTRACTOR'S intention to cover such
Work and ENGINEER or COUNTY has not acted with reasonable promptness in response to
such notice.
13.7 Neither observations by ENGINEER or COUNTY nor inspections, tests, or approvals by others
shall relieve CONTRACTOR from CONTRACTOR’S obligations to perform the Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents.
UNCOVERING WORK:
13.8 If any Work is covered contrary to the written request of ENGINEER or COUNTY, it must, if
requested by ENGINEER or COUNTY, be uncovered for ENGINEER’S and COUNTY’s
observation and replaced at CONTRACTOR'S expense.
13.9 If ENGINEER or COUNTY considers it necessary or advisable that covered Work be observed
by ENGINEER or COUNTY, or inspected or tested by others, CONTRACTOR, at ENGINEER'S
or COUNTY’s request, shall uncover, expose, or otherwise make available for observation,
inspection, or testing as ENGINEER or COUNTY may require, that portion of the Work in
question, furnish all necessary labor, material, and equipment. If it is found that such Work is
defective, CONTRACTOR shall bear all the expenses of such uncovering, exposure, observation,
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
25
inspection, and testing of satisfactory reconstruction, including compensation for additional
professional services, and an appropriate deductive change order shall be issued.
COUNTY MAY STOP THE WORK:
13.10 If the Work is defective, or CONTRACTOR fails to supply sufficient skilled workmen or suitable
materials or equipment, COUNTY may order CONTRACTOR to stop the Work, or any portion
thereof, until the cause for such order has been eliminated; however, this right of COUNTY to
stop the Work shall not give rise to any duty on the part of COUNTY to exercise this right for the
benefit of CONTRACTOR or any other party.
CORRECTION OR REMOVAL OF DEFECTIVE WORK:
13.11 If required by ENGINEER or COUNTY, CONTRACTOR shall promptly, without cost to
COUNTY and as specified by ENGINEER or COUNTY, either correct any defective Work,
whether or not fabricated, installed, or completed, or, if the Work has been rejected by
ENGINEER or COUNTY, remove it from the site and replace it with non-defective Work in a
manner acceptable to the ENGINEER and COUNTY.
TWO YEAR CORRECTION PERIOD:
13.12 If, within two years after the date of Final Completion, or such longer period of time as may be
prescribed by law, or by the terms of any applicable special guarantee required by the Contract
Documents, or by any other specific provision of the Contract Documents, any Work is found to
be defective, CONTRACTOR shall promptly, without cost to COUNTY, and in accordance with
COUNTY'S written instructions, either correct such defective Work, or, if it has been rejected by
COUNTY, remove it from the site, and replace it with non-defective Work. If CONTRACTOR
does not promptly comply with the terms of such instructions, or in an emergency where delay
would cause serious risk of loss or damage, COUNTY may have the defective Work corrected or
the rejected Work removed and replaced, and all direct and indirect costs of such removal and
replacement, including compensation for additional professional services, shall be paid by
CONTRACTOR.
ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE WORK:
13.13 If, instead of requiring correction or removal and replacement of defective Work, COUNTY (and
prior to ENGINEERS recommendation of final payment) prefers to accept it, COUNTY may do
so. In such case, if acceptance occurs prior to ENGINEER'S recommendation of final payment, a
change order shall be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Price; or, if the
acceptance occurs after such recommendation, an appropriate amount shall be paid by
CONTRACTOR to COUNTY.
COUNTY MAY CORRECT DEFECTIVE WORK:
13.14 If CONTRACTOR fails, within a reasonable time after written notice of ENGINEER and
COUNTY, to proceed to correct defective Work, or to remove and replace rejected Work as
required by ENGINEER or COUNTY in accordance with paragraph 13.11, or if CONTRACTOR
fails to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents (including any
requirements of the progress schedule), COUNTY may, after seven (7) days written notice to
CONTRACTOR, correct and remedy any such deficiency. In exercising its rights under this
paragraph COUNTY shall proceed expeditiously. To the extent necessary to complete corrective
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
26
and remedial action, COUNTY may exclude CONTRACTOR from all part of the site, take
possession of all or part of the Work, and suspend CONTRACTOR'S services related thereto,
take possession of CONTRACTOR'S tools, appliances, construction equipment, and machinery at
the site, and incorporate in the Work all materials and equipment stored at the site, or for which
COUNTY has paid CONTRACTOR, but which are stored elsewhere. CONTRACTOR shall
allow COUNTY, COUNTY'S representatives, agents, and employees such access to the site as
may be necessary to enable COUNTY to exercise his rights under this paragraph. All direct and
indirect costs of COUNTY in exercising such rights shall be charged against CONTRACTOR in
an amount verified by ENGINEER, and a change order shall be issued incorporating the
necessary revisions in the Contract Documents and a reduction in the Contract Price. Such direct
and indirect costs shall include, in particular but without limitation, compensation for additional
professional services required, and all costs of repair and replacement of work of others destroyed
or damaged by correction, removal, or replacement of CONTRACTOR'S defective Work.
CONTRACTOR shall not be allowed an extension of the Contract Time because of any delay in
performance of the Work attributable to the exercise by COUNTY of COUNTY'S rights
hereunder.
ARTICLE 14 – PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND COMPLETION
SCHEDULES:
14.1 At least ten days prior to submitting the first application for a progress payment, CONTRACTOR
shall (except as otherwise specified in the general requirements) submit to ENGINEER and
COUNTY a progress schedule, a final schedule of Shop Drawing submissions, and, where
applicable, a schedule of values of the Work. These schedules shall be satisfactory in form and
substance to ENGINEER and COUNTY. The schedule of values shall include quantities and unit
prices aggregating the Contract Price, and shall subdivide the Work into component parts in
sufficient detail to serve as the basis for progress payments during construction. Upon acceptance
of the schedule of values by ENGINEER and COUNTY, it shall be incorporated into a form of
application for payment acceptable to ENGINEER and COUNTY.
APPLICATION FOR PROGRESS PAYMENT:
14.2 At least ten days before each progress payment falls due (but not more often than once a month),
CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER and COUNTY for review an application for
payment filled out and signed by CONTRACTOR covering the Work completed as of the date of
the application, and accompanied by such supporting documentation as is required by the
Contract Documents, and also as ENGINEER or COUNTY may reasonably require. If payment
is requested on the basis of materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work, but delivered
and suitably stored at the site or at another location agreed to in writing, the application for
payment shall also be accompanied by such data, satisfactory to COUNTY, as will establish
COUNTY'S title to the material and equipment, and protect COUNTY'S interest therein,
including applicable insurance. Each subsequent application for payment shall include an
affidavit of CONTRACTOR stating that all previous progress payments received on account of
the Work have been applied to discharge in full all of CONTRACTOR'S obligations reflected in
prior applications for payment. The amount of retainage with respect to progress payments will
be as stipulated in the Agreement.
CONTRACTOR'S WARRANTY OF TITLE:
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
27
14.3 CONTRACTOR warrants and guarantees that title to all Work, materials, and equipment covered
by any application for payment, whether incorporated in the Project or not, will pass to COUNTY
at the time of payment free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests, and encumbrances
(hereafter in these General Conditions referred to as “Liens”).
REVIEW OF APPLICATIONS FOR PROGRESS PAYMENT:
14.4 ENGINEER will, within ten days after receipt of each application for payment, either indicate in
writing a recommendation of payment and present the application to COUNTY, or return the
application to CONTRACTOR indicating in writing ENGINEER'S reasons for refusing to
recommend payment. In the latter case, CONTRACTOR may make the necessary corrections
and resubmit the application. COUNTY shall, within twenty days of presentation to him of the
application for payment with ENGINEER'S recommendation, pay CONTRACTOR the amount
recommended.
14.5 ENGINEER'S recommendation of any payment requested in an application for payment will
constitute a representation by ENGINEER to COUNTY that, based on ENGINEER'S on-site
observations of the Work in progress as an experienced and qualified design professional, and on
ENGINEER'S review of the application for payment, and the accompanying data and schedules,
the Work has progressed to the point indicated; that, to the best of ENGINEER'S knowledge,
information, and belief, the quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents
(subject to an evaluation of the Work as a functioning Project upon substantial completion, and to
the results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract Documents and any qualifications
stated in the recommendation); and, that CONTRACTOR is entitled to payment of the amount
recommended. However, by recommending any such payment, ENGINEER will not thereby be
deemed to have represented that exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections have been made to
check the quality or the quantity of Work, or that the means, methods, techniques, sequences, and
procedures of construction have been reviewed, or that any examination has been made to
ascertain how or for what purpose CONTRACTOR has used the monies paid or to be paid to
CONTRACTOR on account of the Contract Price, or that title to any Work, materials, or
equipment has passed to COUNTY free and clear of any Liens.
14.6 ENGINEER'S recommendation of final payment will constitute an additional representation by
ENGINEER to COUNTY that the conditions precedent to CONTRACTOR'S being entitled to
final payment as set forth in paragraph 14.13 have been fulfilled.
14.7 ENGINEER may refuse to recommend the whole, or any part of any payment if, in its opinion, it
would be incorrect to make such representations to COUNTY. ENGINEER may also refuse to
recommend any such payment, or, because of subsequently discovered evidence, or the results of
subsequent inspections or tests, nullify any such payment previously recommended to such extent
as may be necessary in ENGINEER'S opinion to protect COUNTY from loss because:
14.7.1 the Work is defective, or completed Work has been damaged requiring correction or
replacement,
14.7.2 written claims have been made against COUNTY, or liens have been filed in connection
with the Work,
14.7.3 the Contract Price has been reduced because of Modifications,
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
28
14.7.4 COUNTY has been required to correct defective Work, or complete the Work in
accordance with paragraph 13.14,
14.7.5 of CONTRACTOR'S unsatisfactory prosecution of the Work in accordance with the
Contract Documents, or
14.7.6 CONTRACTOR'S failure to make payment to Subcontractors, or for labor, materials, or
equipment.
SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION:
14.8 When CONTRACTOR considers the entire Work ready for its intended use, CONTRACTOR
shall, in writing to COUNTY and ENGINEER, certify that the entire Work is substantially
complete, and request that ENGINEER issue a certificate of substantial completion. Within a
reasonable time thereafter, COUNTY, CONTRACTOR, and ENGINEER shall make an
inspection of the Work to determine the status of completion. If ENGINEER after conferring
with COUNTY does not consider the Work substantially complete, ENGINEER will notify
CONTRACTOR in writing giving reasons therefor. If ENGINEER after conferring with
COUNTY considers the Work substantially complete, ENGINEER will prepare and deliver to
COUNTY a tentative certificate of substantial completion which shall fix the date of substantial
completion. There shall be attached to the certificate a tentative list of items to be completed or
corrected before final payment. COUNTY shall have seven days after receipt of the tentative
certificate during which he may make written objection to ENGINEER as to any provisions of the
certificate or attached list. If, after considering such objections, ENGINEER concludes that the
Work is not substantially complete, ENGINEER will, within fourteen (14) days after submission
of the tentative certificate to COUNTY, notify CONTRACTOR in writing stating his reasons
therefor. If, after consideration of COUNTY’S objections, ENGINEER considers the Work
substantially complete, ENGINEER will, within said fourteen (14) days, execute and deliver to
COUNTY and CONTRACTOR a definitive certificate of substantial completion (with a revised
tentative list of items to be completed or corrected) reflecting such changes from the tentative
certificate as it believes justified after consideration of any objections from COUNTY. At the
time of delivery of tentative certificate of substantial completion, COUNTY and CONTRACTOR
will mutually agree upon the division of responsibilities pending final payment between
COUNTY and CONTRACTOR with respect to security, operation, safety, maintenance, heat,
utilities, and insurance.
14.9 COUNTY shall have the right to exclude CONTRACTOR from the Work after the date of
substantial completion, but COUNTY shall allow CONTRACTOR reasonable access to complete
or correct items on the tentative list.
PARTIAL UTILIZATION:
14.10 Use by COUNTY of completed portions of the Work may be accomplished prior to substantial
completion of all the Work subject to the following:
14.10.1 COUNTY, at any time, may request CONTRACTOR in writing to permit COUNTY to
use any part of the Work which COUNTY believes to be substantially complete and
which may be so used without significant interference with construction of the other parts
of the Work. If CONTRACTOR agrees, CONTRACTOR will certify to COUNTY and
ENGINEER that said part of the Work is substantially complete, and request ENGINEER
to issue a certificate of substantial completion for that part of the Work. Within a
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
29
reasonable time thereafter, COUNTY, CONTRACTOR, and ENGINEER shall make an
inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status of completion. If ENGINEER
after conferring with COUNTY considers that part of the Work to be substantially
complete, ENGINEER will execute, and deliver to COUNTY and CONTRACTOR, a
certificate to that effect, fixing the date of substantial completion as to that part of the
Work, attaching thereto a tentative list of items to be completed or corrected before final
payment. Prior to issuing a certificate of substantial completion as to part of the Work,
ENGINEER after conferring with COUNTY will deliver to COUNTY and
CONTRACTOR a written recommendation as to the division of responsibilities pending
final payment between COUNTY and CONTRACTOR with respect to security,
operation, safety, maintenance, utilities, and insurance for that part of the Work which
shall become binding upon COUNTY and CONTRACTOR at the time of issuing the
definitive certificate of substantial completion as to that part of the Work, unless
COUNTY and CONTRACTOR shall have otherwise agreed in writing. COUNTY shall
have the right to exclude CONTRACTOR from any part of the Work which ENGINEER
has so certified to be substantially complete, but COUNTY shall allow CONTRACTOR
reasonable access to complete or correct items on the tentative list.
14.10.2 In lieu of the issuance of a certificate of substantial completion as to part of the work,
COUNTY may take over operation of a facility constituting part of the Work, whether or
not it is substantially complete, if such facility is functionally and separately usable;
provided that prior to any such takeover, COUNTY and CONTRACTOR have agreed as
to the division of responsibilities between COUNTY and CONTRACTOR for security,
operation, safety, maintenance, correction period, heat, utilities, and insurance with
respect to such facility.
14.10.3 No occupancy of part of the Work, or taking over of operations of a facility will be
accomplished before the insurers providing the property insurance have acknowledged
notice thereof and in writing effected any changes in coverage necessitated thereby. The
insurers providing the property insurance shall consent by endorsement on the policy or
policies, but the property insurance shall not be cancelled or permitted to lapse on
account of any such partial use or occupancy.
FINAL INSPECTION:
14.11 Upon written notice from CONTRACTOR that the Work is complete, ENGINEER will make a
final inspection with COUNTY and CONTRACTOR, and will notify CONTRACTOR in writing
of all particulars in which this inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete or defective.
CONTRACTOR shall immediately take such measures as are necessary to remedy such
deficiencies.
FINAL APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT:
14.12 After CONTRACTOR has completed all such corrections to the satisfaction of ENGINEER and
COUNTY, and delivered all maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees,
bonds, warranties, certificates of inspection, marked-up record documents, three (3) complete
bound sets of required operations and maintenance manuals and instructions, two (2) sets of as
built drawings, to the extent not already furnished, one (1) copy of all corrected Shop Drawings,
satisfactory evidence that all payroll, material bills and other indebtedness with the Work have
been paid or otherwise satisfied, consent of surety to final payment and other documents, all as
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
30
required by the Contract Documents, and after ENGINEER and COUNTY has indicated that the
Work is acceptable (subject to the provisions of paragraph 14.14), CONTRACTOR may make
application for final payment following the procedure for progress payments. The final
application for payment shall be accompanied by all documentation called for in the Contract
Documents, and such other data and schedules as ENGINEER and COUNTY may reasonably
require. Payment shall be processed in accordance with C.R.S. §§ 24-91-103 and 38-26-107.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, CONTRACTOR will provide complete and legally effective lien
releases or waivers satisfactory to COUNTY. In lieu thereof, and as approved by COUNTY,
CONTRACTOR may furnish receipts or releases in full; an affidavit of CONTRACTOR that the
releases and receipts include all labor, services, material, and equipment for which lien could be
filed, and that all payrolls, material, and equipment bills, and other indebtedness connected with
the Work, for which COUNTY or his property might in any way be responsible, have been paid
or otherwise satisfied; and consent of the surety, if any, to final payment. If any Subcontractor,
manufacturer, fabricator, supplier, or distributor fails to furnish a release or receipt in full,
CONTRACTOR may furnish a bond or other collateral satisfactory to COUNTY to indemnify
COUNTY.
FINAL COMPLETION AND FINAL PAYMENT AND ACCEPTANCE:
14.13 If, after conferring with COUNTY and on the basis of ENGINEER'S observation of the Work
during construction and final inspection, and ENGINEER'S review of the final application for
payment and accompanying documentation, all as required by Contract Documents, ENGINEER
and COUNTY are satisfied that the Work has been completed and CONTRACTOR has fulfilled
all of his obligations under the Contract Documents, ENGINEER will, within ten days after
receipt of the final application for payment, indicate in writing his recommendation of payment,
and present the application to COUNTY for payment. Thereupon, ENGINEER will give written
notice to COUNTY and CONTRACTOR that the Work is acceptable subject to the provisions of
paragraph 14.15. Otherwise, ENGINEER will return the application to CONTRACTOR,
indicating in writing the reasons for refusing to recommend final payment, in which case
CONTRACTOR shall make the necessary corrections, and resubmit the application. If the
application and accompanying documentation are appropriate as to form and substance,
COUNTY shall, after receipt thereof, pay CONTRACTOR in accordance with the payment
procedures set forth in the Agreement, the amount recommended by ENGINEER.
CONTRACTOR’S CONTINUING OBLIGATION:
14.14 CONTRACTOR'S obligation to perform and complete the Work in accordance with the Contract
Documents shall be absolute. Neither recommendation of any progress or final payment by
ENGINEER, nor the issuance of a certificate of substantial completion, nor any payment by
COUNTY to CONTRACTOR under the Contract Documents, nor any use or occupancy of the
Work or any part thereof by COUNTY, nor any act of acceptance by COUNTY, nor any failure
to do so, nor the issuance of a notice of acceptability by ENGINEER pursuant to paragraph 14.13,
nor any correction of defective Work by COUNTY shall constitute an acceptance of Work not in
accordance with the Contract documents or a release of CONTRACTOR'S obligation to perform
the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
WAIVER OF CLAIMS:
14.15 The making and acceptance of final payment shall constitute:
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
31
14.15.1 a waiver of all claims by COUNTY against CONTRACTOR, except claims arising from
unsettled liens, from defective Work appearing after final inspection pursuant to
paragraph 14.11, or from failure to comply with the Contract Documents or the terms of
any special guarantees specified therein; however, it shall not constitute a waiver by
COUNTY of any rights in respect of CONTRACTOR'S continuing obligations under the
Contract Documents; and
14.15.2 a waiver of all claims by CONTRACTOR against COUNTY other than those previously
made in writing and still unsettled.
ARTICLE 15 – SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERMINATION
COUNTY MAY SUSPEND WORK:
15.1 COUNTY may, at any time and without cause, suspend the Work, or any portion thereof, for a
period of not more than ninety days, by notice in writing to CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER
which shall fix the date on which Work shall be resumed. CONTRACTOR shall resume the
Work on the date so fixed. CONTRACTOR may, at the COUNTY'S sole discretion, be allowed
an increase in the Contract Price, or an extension of the Contract Time, or both, directly
attributable to any suspension, if it makes a claim therefor as provided in Articles 11 and 12.
15.2 Upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events:
15.2.1 if CONTRACTOR is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent,
15.2.2 if CONTRACTOR makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors,
15.2.3 if a trustee or receiver is appointed for CONTRACTOR or for any of CONTRACTOR'S
property,
15.2.4 if CONTRACTOR files a petition to take advantage of any debtor’s act, or to reorganize
under the bankruptcy or similar laws,
15.2.5 if CONTRACTOR repeatedly fails to supply sufficient skilled workmen, or suitable
materials or equipment,
15.2.6 if CONTRACTOR repeatedly fails to make prompt payments to Subcontractors, or for
labor, materials, or equipment,
15.2.7 if CONTRACTOR disregards laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, or orders of any public
body having jurisdiction,
15.2.8 if CONTRACTOR disregards the authority of ENGINEER, or
15.2.9 if CONTRACTOR otherwise violates, in any substantial way, any provisions of the
Contract Documents,
COUNTY may, after giving CONTRACTOR and his surety seven days written notice, terminate
the services of CONTRACTOR, exclude CONTRACTOR from the site, and take possession of
the Work and of all CONTRACTOR'S tools, appliances, construction equipment, and machinery
at the site, and use the same to the full extent they could be used by CONTRACTOR (without
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
32
liability to CONTRACTOR for trespass or conversion), incorporate in the Work all materials and
equipment stored at the site, or for which COUNTY has paid CONTRACTOR but which are
stored elsewhere, and finish the Work as COUNTY may deem expedient. In such case,
CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is finished.
If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds the direct and indirect costs of completing the
Work, including compensation for additional professional services, such excess shall be paid to
CONTRACTOR. If such costs exceed such unpaid balance, CONTRACTOR shall pay the
difference to COUNTY. Such costs incurred by COUNTY shall be verified by ENGINEER and
incorporated in a change order, but in finishing the Work, COUNTY shall not be required to
obtain the lowest figure for the Work performed.
15.3 Where CONTRACTOR'S services have been so terminated by COUNTY, the termination shall
not affect any rights of COUNTY against CONTRACTOR then existing, or which may thereafter
accrue. Any retention or payment of monies due CONTRACTOR by COUNTY will not release
CONTRACTOR from liability.
15.4 Upon seven days written notice to CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER, COUNTY may, without
cause and without prejudice to any other right or remedy, terminate the Agreement. In such case,
CONTRACTOR shall be paid for all Work executed and expenses sustained through the date of
termination.
CONTRACTOR MAY STOP WORK OR TERMINATE:
15.5 If, through no act or fault of CONTRACTOR, the Work is suspended for a period of more than
ninety days by COUNTY, or under an order of court or other public authority, or ENGINEER
fails to act on any application for payment within thirty days after it is submitted, or COUNTY
fails for thirty days to pay CONTRACTOR any sum finally determined to be due, then
CONTRACTOR may, upon seven (7) days written notice to COUNTY and ENGINEER,
terminate the Agreement and recover from COUNTY payment for all Work executed through the
date of termination.
ARTICLE 16 – MISCELLANEOUS
COMPUTATION OF TIME:
16.1 When any period of time is referred to in the Contract Documents by days, it shall be calendar
days and be computed to exclude the first and include the last day of such period. If the last day
of any such period falls on a Saturday or Sunday, or on a day made a legal holiday by the law of
the applicable jurisdiction, such day shall be omitted from the computation.
GENERAL:
16.2 Should COUNTY or CONTRACTOR suffer injury or damage to his person or property because
of any error, omission or act of the other party or of any of the other party’s employees or agents,
or others for whose acts the other party is legally liable, claim shall be made in writing to the
other party within a reasonable time of the first observances of such injury or damage.
16.3 The duties and obligations imposed by these General Conditions and the rights and remedies
available hereunder to the parties hereto, and, in particular, but without limitation, the warranties,
guarantees, and obligations imposed upon CONTRACTOR by paragraphs 6.38, 13.1, 13.11,
13.14, 14.3, and 15.2, and all of the rights and remedies available to COUNTY and ENGINEER
Docusign Envelope ID: 11D5BA49-F324-4F46-A12A-E626A44B4D0D
33
thereunder, shall be in addition to, and shall not be construed in any way as a limitation of, any
rights and remedies available to any or all of them which are otherwise imposed or available by
law or contract, by warranty or guarantee, or by other provisions of this paragraph shall be as
effective as if repeated specifically in the Contract Documents in connection with each particular
duty, obligations, right and remedy to which they apply. All representations, warranties, and
guarantees made in the Contract Documents shall survive final payment and termination or
completion of this Agreement.
