The Contractor shall promptly correct all <br />apparent and latent deficiencies and/or defects in work, and/or any Unsatisfactory Work that <br />fails to conform to the contract documents regardless of project completion status. If <br />Unsatisfactory Work is identified, through planned, random or unannounced inspections, or any <br />other circumstance through which the City becomes aware of Non-Compliant Work, the <br />Contractor will be notified within two (2) business days. All corrections shall be made within <br />two (2) business days after such rejected defects, deficiencies, and/or Non-Compliant Work are <br />verbally reported to the Contractor by the City's Project Manager(s), who may confirm all such <br />verbal reports in writing. The Contractor shall bear all costs of correcting such rejected work. If <br />the Contractor fails to correct the work within the period specified,the City may,at its discretion, <br />notify the Contractor, in writing, that the Contractor is subject to contractual default provisions <br />if the corrections are not completed to the satisfaction of the City within one (1) business day of <br />receipt of the notice. <br />In addition to random or unannounced inspections, the City will conduct planned inspections for <br />parks and recreational facilities each month which will be conducted prior to the Contractor <br />submitting its monthly invoice. The City may provide the Contractor an opportunity to correct <br />any Non-Compliant Work or the City will withhold payment or assess a payment reduction for <br />the Unsatisfactory Work. When either planned or unplanned inspection efforts identify Non- <br />Compliant Work or Unsatisfactory Work, the Contractor will be notified per the procedure set <br />forth above and the City will conduct a subsequent inspection to ensure compliance. The City <br />will incur additional administrative expenses for the additional time required to re-inspect <br />Contractor Work. The City will assess against the Contractor a payment reduction of Two <br />Hundred Fifty Dollars (S250.00) for parks and recreational facilities landscape re-inspection <br />to cover the administrative expenses associated with each re-inspection effort; such reduction <br />will be in addition to other payment reductions that may apply per the Contract. <br />101-6841 SUPERIOR LANSCAPING& LAWN SERVICE.
