When all of the Work is finally complete and the Contractor is ready for a final <br />inspection, it shall notify the City and the Engineer / Architect thereof in writing. Thereupon, the <br />Engineer / Architect will make final inspection of the Work and, if the Work is complete in full <br />accordance with this Contract and this Contract has been fully performed, the Engineer / Architect <br />will promptly issue a final Certificate for Payment certifying to the City that the Project is complete <br />and the Contractor is entitled to the remainder of the unpaid Contract Price, less any amount <br />withheld pursuant to this Contract. If the Engineer / Architect is unable to issue its final Certificate <br />for Payment and is required to repeat its final inspection of the Work, the Contractor shall bear the <br />cost of such repeat final inspection(s) which cost may be deducted by the City from the Contractor's <br />final payment. <br />5.6.1.1.

Any sums due <br />and payable hereunder by the Contractor shall be payable, not as a penalty, but as liquidated <br />damages representing an estimate of delay damages likely to be sustained by the City, estimated <br />at or before the time of executing this Contract. When the City reasonably believes that final <br />completion will be inexcusably delayed, the City shall be entitled, but not required, to withhold <br />from any amounts otherwise due the Contractor an amount then believed by the City to be <br />adequate to recover liquidated damages applicable to such delays. <br />5.6.2.
