and not mentioned in the other, or vice versa, is to be executed the same as if mentioned in all said
documents. The documents comprising the complete contract will hereinafter be referred to as “the
Contract Documents.”
3. Equipment - Performance of Work. Contractor shall furnish all tools, equipment,
apparatus, facilities, labor, and materials necessary to perform and complete in a good and workmanlike
manner the Work of general construction as called for, and for the manner designated in, and in strict
conformity with, the plans and specifications for said Work entitled:
CDBG Ramps and Paths
The equipment, apparatus, facilities, labor, and materials shall be furnished and said Work
performed and completed as required in said plans and specifications under the direction and supervision
and subject to the approval of the Engineer of said City or the Engineer’s designated assistant.
4. Contract Price. City shall pay, and Contractor shall accept, in full payment for the Work
agreed to be done the sum of __________________________________ ($). Said price is determined by
the lump sum price contained in Contractor's bid proposal (“Bid”). The lump sum price and unit prices
are set forth in the completed Bid forms attached hereto and made a part hereof as if set forth herein
verbatim. In the event work is performed or materials furnished in addition to those set forth in
Contractor's bid and the specifications herein, such work and materials will be paid for at the unit prices
therein contained. Said amount shall be paid in installments as hereinafter provided.
5. Rights of City to Increase Working Days. If such Work is not completed within the time
specified, the Engineer shall have the right to increase the number of working days in the amount it may
determine will best serve the interest of the City. If it desires to increase said number of working days, it
shall have the further right to charge to Contractor and deduct from the final payment for the Work the
actual cost of engineering, inspection, superintendence, and other overhead expenses which are directly
chargeable to Contractor and which accrue during the period of such extension, except that the cost of the
final service and preparation of the final estimates shall not be included in such charges, provided,
however, that no extension of time for the completion of such Work shall be allowed unless at least
twenty (20) calendar days prior to the time herein fixed for the completion thereof or the time fixed by the
Engineer for such completion as extended, Contractor shall have filed application for extension thereof, in
writing with the Engineer.
6. Option of City to Terminate Agreement in Event of Failure to Complete Work . If at any
time in the opinion of the Engineer, the Contractor has refused or failed to prosecute the Work or any
severable part thereof, with such diligence as will insure its work, or any completion within the time
specified, or any extensions thereof, or shall have failed to complete said work within such time, or if
CDBG Ramps and Paths
BID NO. 2701 A-3
Contractor should be adjudged a bankrupt, or if Contractor should make a general assignment for the
benefit of Contractor's creditors, or if a receiver should be appointed in the event of Contractor's
insolvency, or if Contractor, or any Subcontractor, should violate any of the provisions of this Agreement,
the Engineer may give written notice to Contractor, and Contractor's sureties of its intention to terminate
this Agreement, such notice to contain the reasons for such intention to terminate this Agreement, and
unless within five calendar (5) days after the serving of such notice, such violation shall cease and
satisfactory arrangements for the correction thereof be made, this Agreement may, at the option of City,
upon expiration of said time, cease and terminate. Any excess of cost arising therefrom over and above
the contract price will be charged against the Contractor and the Contractor’s sureties who will be liable
therefore. In the event of such termination, all money due the Contractor or retained under the terms of
this contract shall be forfeited to the City; but such forfeiture will not release the Contractor or the
Contractor’s sureties from liability or failure to fulfill the contract. The Contractor and the Contractor’s
sureties will be credited with the amount of money so forfeited toward any excess of cost over and above
the contract price, arising from the suspension termination of the operations of the contract and the
completion of the Work by the City as above provided, and the Contractor will be so credited with any
surplus remaining after all just claims for such completion have been paid.
In the determination of the question whether there has been any such noncompliance with the
contract as to warrant the suspension termination or annulment thereof, the decision of the Engineer shall
be binding on all parties to the contract.
7. Termination of Contract for Convenience. The City also reserves the right to terminate
the contract at any time upon a determination by the Engineer in the Engineer's sole discretion that
termination of the contract is in the best interest of the City. If the City elects to terminate the contract for
convenience, the termination of the contract and the total compensation payable to the Contractor shall be
governed by the following:
(A) The City will issue the Contractor a written notice signed by the Engineer,
specifying that the contract is terminated. Upon receipt of said written notice, the Contractor will be
relieved of further responsibility for damage to the Work (excluding materials) as specified in Section
VII-17, "Contractor's Responsibility for the Work," of the General Conditions and, except as otherwise
directed in writing by the Engineer, the Contractor shall:
(1) Stop all work under the contract except that specifically directed to be completed prior to
acceptance.
(2) Perform work the Engineer deems necessary to secure the project for termination.
(3) Remove equipment and plant from the site of the Work.
(4) Take such action as is necessary to protect materials from damage.
(5) Notify all subcontractors and suppliers that the contract is being terminated and that their
contracts or orders are not to be further performed unless otherwise authorized in writing by the
Engineer.
(6) Provide the Engineer with an inventory list of all materials previously produced,
purchased or ordered from suppliers for use in the Work and not yet used in the Work, including
its storage location, and such other information as the Engineer may request.
CDBG Ramps and Paths
BID NO. 2701 A-4
(7) Dispose of materials not yet used in the Work as directed by the Engineer. It shall be the
Contractor's responsibility to provide the City with good title to all materials purchased by the
City hereunder, including materials for which partial payment has been made as provided in
Section IX-2, “Progress Payments,” of the General Conditions and with bills of sale or other
documents of title for such materials.
(8) Subject to the prior written approval of the Engineer, settle all outstanding liabilities and
all claims arising out of subcontracts or orders for materials terminated hereunder. To the extent
directed by the Engineer, the Contractor shall assign to the City all the right, title, and interest of
the Contractor under subcontracts or orders for materials terminated hereunder.
(9) Furnish the Engineer with the documentation required to be furnished by the Contractor
under the provisions of the contract, including, on projects as to which Federal and State funds
are involved, all documentation required under the Federal and State requirements included in the
contract.
(10) Take such other actions as the Engineer may direct.
(B) Acceptance of the contract as hereinafter specified shall not relieve the
Contractor of responsibility for damage to materials. The Contractor shall continue to be responsible for
damage to materials after issuance of the Notice of Termination, except as follows:
(1) The Contractor’s responsibility for damage to materials for which partial payment has
been made as provided in Section IX-2, “Progress Payments,” of the General Conditions and for
materials furnished by the City for use in the Work and unused shall terminate when the Engineer
certifies that such materials have been stored in the manner and at the locations the Engineer has
directed.
(2) The Contractor’s responsibility for damage to materials purchased by the City subsequent
to the issuance of the notice that the contract is to be terminated shall terminate when title and
delivery of such materials has been taken by the City.
(3) When the Engineer determines that the Contractor has completed the Work under the
contract directed to be completed prior to termination and such other work as may have been
ordered to secure the project for termination, the Contractor will recommend that the Engineer
formally accept the contract to the extent performed, and immediately upon and after such
acceptance by the Engineer, the Contractor will not be required to perform any further Work
thereon and shall be relieved of the Contractor's contractual responsibilities for injury to persons
or property which occurs after the formal acceptance of the project by the Engineer.
(C) Termination of the contract shall not relieve the surety of its obligation for any
just claims arising out of the work performed.
(D) The total compensation to be paid to the Contractor shall be determined by the
Engineer on the basis of the following:
(1) The reasonable cost to the Contractor, without profit, for all work performed under the
contract, including mobilization, demobilization and work done to secure the project for
termination. In determining the reasonable cost, deductions will be made for the cost of materials
CDBG Ramps and Paths
BID NO. 2701 A-5
to be retained by the Contractor, amounts realized by the sale of materials, and for other
appropriate credits against the cost of the work. When, in the opinion of the Engineer, the cost of
a contract item of work is excessively high due to costs incurred to remedy or replace defective or
rejected work, the reasonable cost to be allowed will be the estimated reasonable cost of
performing such work in compliance with the requirements of the plans and specifications and the
excessive actual cost shall be disallowed.
(2) A reasonable allowance for profit on the cost of the work performed as determined under
Subsection (1), provided the Contractor establishes to the satisfaction of the Engineer that it is
reasonably probable that the Contractor would have made a profit had the contract been
completed and provided further, that the profit allowed shall in no event exceed four (4) percent
of said cost.
(3) The reasonable cost to the Contractor of handling material returned to the vendor,
delivered to the City, or otherwise disposed of as directed by the Engineer.
(4) A reasonable allowance for the Contractor’s administrative costs in determining the
amount payable due to termination of the contract.
(5) A reasonable credit to the City for defective or incomplete work not corrected.
All records of the Contractor and subcontractors necessary to determine compensation in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 5 shall be open to inspection or audit by representatives of
the City at all times after issuance of the Notice of Termination and for a period of three (3) years,
thereafter, and such records shall be retained for that period.
After acceptance of the Work by the Engineer, the Engineer may make payments on the basis of
interim estimates pending issuance of the Final Estimate in accordance with Section IX-7, “Final
Payment,” of the General Conditions when, in the Engineer's opinion, the amount thus paid, together with
all amounts previously paid or allowed, will not result in total compensation in excess of that to which the
Contractor will be entitled. All payments, including payment upon the Final Estimate shall be subject to
deduction for prior payments and amounts, if any, to be kept or retained under the provisions of the
contract.
If this contract is terminated by the City for cause, and it is later determined that the proper basis
for a termination for cause did not exist, the termination shall be deemed to have been a termination for
convenience and governed by the terms of this contract dealing with such termination.
If the contract is terminated by the City for cause or convenience, such termination shall neither
act as a waiver by the City of its right to require the Contractor to correct defects in the Work performed
by the Contractor nor void any warranties applicable to the Work performed under the contract.
The provisions of this Section 5 shall be included in all subcontracts.
In the event of conflict between the termination provisions of this Section 8 and any other
provision or the contract, this Section 5 shall prevail.
8. Performance by Sureties. In the event of any termination as herein before provided, City
shall immediately give written notice thereof to Contractor and Contractor's sureties and the sureties shall
have the right to take over and perform the Agreement, provided, however, that if the sureties, within five
(5) working days after giving them said notice of termination, do not give the City written notice of their
CDBG Ramps and Paths
BID NO. 2701 A-6
intention to take over the performance of the Agreement and do not commence performance thereof
within five (5) working days after notice to the City of such election, City may take over the Work and
prosecute the same to completion by contract or by any other method it may deem advisable, for the
account, and at the expense, of Contractor, and the sureties shall be liable to City for any excess cost or
damages occasioned City thereby; and, in such event, City may, without liability for so doing, take
possession of and utilize in completing the Work such materials, appliances, plant, and other property
belonging to Contractor as may be on the site of the Work and necessary therefore. Should Contractor
contract in an individual capacity, the surety bond shall contain the following provision: “Should
Contractor contract in the Contractor’s individual capacity, the death of the Contractor shall not relieve
the surety of its obligations.”
9. Hold-Harmless Agreement and Contractor's Insurance. Contractor agrees to, and shall,
hold City, its elective and appointive boards, officers, agents, and employees harmless from any liability
for damage or claims for damage for personal injury, including death, as well as from claims for property
damage which may arise from Contractor's or any of Subcontractor's operations under this Agreement,
whether such operations be by Contractor or by any Subcontractor or Subcontractors, or by any one or
more persons directly or indirectly employed by, or acting as agent for, Contractor or any Subcontractor
or Subcontractors. Contractor agrees to, and shall, defend City and its elective and appointive boards,
officers, agents, and employees from any suits or actions at law or in equity for damages caused, or
alleged to have been caused, by reason of any of the aforesaid operations, provided as follows:
(A) The City does not, and shall not, waive any rights against Contractor which it may have
by reason of the aforesaid hold-harmless agreement, because of the acceptance by City,
or the deposit with City by Contractor, of any of the insurance policies hereinafter
described in Paragraph 15, “Insurance” hereof.
(B) That the aforesaid hold-harmless agreement by Contractor shall apply to all damages and
claims for damages of every kind suffered, or alleged to have been suffered, by reason of
any of the aforesaid operations of Contractor or any Subcontractor, regardless of whether
or not such insurance policies shall have been determined to be applicable to any of such
damages or claims for damages.
10. Insurance. The Contractor shall take out and maintain during the life of this Agreement
the following policies of insurance:
(A) Workers' Compensation and Employers' Liability Insurance providing full
statutory coverage.
In signing this Agreement, the Contractor makes the following certification,

boards, commissions, officers, agents, employees, with respect to operations performed by the Contractor,
as described herein. Evidence of this insurance described above shall be provided to City upon execution

of any policy during the effective period of this contract. Further, if the Contractor’s insurance policy
includes a self-insured retention that must be paid by a named insured as a precondition of the insurer’s
liability, or which has the effect of providing that payments of the self -insured retention by others,
including additional insureds or insurers do not serve to satisfy the self-insured retention, such provisions
must be modified by special endorsement so as to not apply to the additional insured coverage required by
this agreement so as to not prevent any of the parties to this agreement from satisfying or paying the self -
CDBG Ramps and Paths
BID NO. 2701 A-8
insured retention required to be paid as a precondition to the insurer’s liability. Additionally, the
certificates of insurance must note whether the policy does or does not include any self -insured retention
and also must disclose the deductible.
12. Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, as Amended. The work to

ensure that employment and other economic opportunities generated by HUD assistance or HUD-assisted
projects covered by Section 3, shall, to the greatest extent feasible, be directed to low- and very low-
income persons, particularly persons who are recipients of HUD assistance for housing.
The parties to this Contract agree to comply with HUD's regulations in 24 CFR Part 75, which
implements Section 3. As evidenced by their execution of this Contract, the parties to this Contract
certify that they are under no contractual obligation or other impediment that would prevent them from
complying with Part 75 of the regulations.
The Contractor agrees to send to each labor organization or representative of workers with which
the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement, contract, or other understanding, if any, a notice
advising the labor organization or workers' representative of the Contractor's commitments under Section
3 and will post copies of the notice in conspicuous places at the work site where both employees and
applicants for training and employment positions can see the notice. The notice shall describe the Section
3 requirements, shall set forth the minimum number and job titles subject to hire, availability of
apprenticeship and training positions, the qualifications for each, the name and location of the person(s)
taking applications for each of the positions, and the anticipated date the work shall begin.
The Contractor agrees to include Section 3 contract language in every subcontract subject to
compliance with regulations in 24 CFR Part 75, and agrees to take appropriate action, as provided in an
applicable provision of the subcontract or in this Section 3 contract language, upon a finding that the
subcontractor is in violation of the regulations in 24 CFR Part 75. The Contractor will not subcontract
with any subcontractor where the Contractor has notice or knowledge that the subcontractor has been
found to be in violation of the regulations in 24 CFR Part 75.
The Contractor will certify that any vacant employment positions, including training positions,
that are filled: (1) after the Contractor is selected but before the Contract is executed; and (2) with persons
other than those to whom the regulations of 24 CFR Part 75 require employment opportunities to be
directed, were not filled to circumvent the Contractor’s obligations under 24 CFR Part 75.
Noncompliance with HUD's regulations in 24 CFR Part 75 may result in sanctions, termination of
this Contract for default, and debarment or suspension from future HUD assisted contracts.
13. Provisions Cumulative. The provisions of this Agreement are cumulative, and in addition
to and not in limitation of, any other rights or remedies available to City.
14. Notices. All notices shall be in writing and delivered in person or transmitted by certified
