I Abbreviated Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Architect
GENERAL INFORMATION
PURPOSE. AlA Document (3151-1')'):- is an ahhreviated standard form of agreement hetween Owner and Architect
intended for use on construction projects of limited SLope where the complexity and detail of AlA Document
BI41-1,)97, Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Architect, are not required, and where services are based
on five phases: Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction Documents, Bidding or Negotiation, and
Construction. This document may be used with a variety of compensation methods, including percentage of
Construction Cost, multiple of Direct Personnel Expense and stipulated sum.
RELATED DOCUMENTS. B151-\997 is intended to be used in conjunction with AlOl-1997, General Conditions of the
Contract for Construction. It can be used with Architect-Consultant agreements such as AlA Documents CI4l-l997,
CI42-1')97 or C7l;-. Other AlA Owner-Architect Agreements available for use in connection with customary services or
in special circumstances include:
B141-1997 Owner-Architect Agreement
B141/CMa Owner-Architect Agreement. Construction Management Edition
B163 Owner-Architect Agreement for Designated Services
B171 Interior Design Services Agreement
Bl77 Abbreviated Interior Design Services Agreement

DISPUTE RESOLUTION-MEDIATION AND ARBITRATION. This document contains provisions for mediation
and arbitration of claims and disputes. ~lediation is a non-binding process, but is mandatory under the terms of this
agreement. Arbitration is mandatorv under the terms of this agreement and binding in most states and under the
Federal Arbitration Act. In a minority of states, arbitration provisions relating to future disputes are not enforceable
but the parties may agree to arbitrate after the dispute arises. Even in those states, under certain circumstances
(for example, in a transaction involving interstate commerce), arbitration provisions mav be enforceable under the
Federal Arbitration Act.
The AlA does not administer dispute resolution processes. To submit'disputes to mediation or arbitration or to obtain
copies of the applicable mediation or arbitration rules, write to the American Arbitration Association or call
(800) 778-7879. The American Arbitration Association may also be contacted at http://wwwudr.org.
WHY USE AlA CONTRACT DOCUMENTS? AlA contract documents are the product of a consensus-building
process aimed at balancing the interests of all parties on the construction project. The documents reflect actual
industry practices. not theory. They are state-of-the-art legal documents, regularly revised to keep up with changes in
law and the industry-yet they are written, as far as possible, in everyday language. Finallv, AlA contract documents
are flexible: they are intended to be modified to fit individual projects, but in such a way that modifIcations are easily
distinguished from the original, printed language.
For further information on AlA's approach to drafting contract documents, see AlA Document ~lllO, Document
Drafting Principles.
USE OF NON-AlA FORMS. [f a combination of AlA documents and non-AlA documents is to be used, particular
care must be taken to achieve consistency of language and intent among documents.

LETTER FORMS OF AGREEM ENT. I.etter forms of agreement are generally discouraged hy the AlA. as is the
performance of a part or the whole of professional savices on the basis of oral agreements or understandings. The
standard AlA agreement forms have been developed through more than 100 years of experience and have been tested
repeatedly in the courts. [n addition. the standard forms have been carefully coordinated with other AlA documents.
STANDARD FORMS. "'lost A[A documents published since 1906 have contained in their titles the words "Standard
Form:' The term "standard" is not meant to imply that a uniform set of contractual requirements is mandatory for
AlA members or others in the construction industry. Rather, the AlA standard documents are intended to be used as
fair and balanced baselines from which the parties can negotiate their bargains. As such, the documents have won
general acceptance within the construction industry and have been uniformly interpreted by the courts. Within an
industry spanning 50 states-each free to adopt different, and perhaps contradictory, laws affecting that industry-
A[A documents form the basis for a generally consistent body of construction law.
USE OF CURRENT DOCUMENTS. Prior to using any AlA document, the user should consult an AlA component
chapter or a current AlA Documents Price List to determine the current edition of each document.
REPRODUCTIONS. This document is a copyrighted work and may not be reproduced or excerpted from in
substantial part without the express written permission of the A[A. This document is intended to be used as a
consumable-that is, the original document purchased by the user is intended to be consumed in the course of being
used. There is no implied permission to reproduce this document, nor does membership in the American Institute of
Architects confer any further rights to reproduce B151-1997 in whole or in part. A limited license is hereby granted to
retail purchasers to reproduce a maximum of TEN copies of a completed document, with or without signatures, but
only for use in connection with a particular project. Further reproductions are prohibited without application by a
specific user to and after receipt of written permission from the AlA.
The A[A logo is printed in red on the original version of this document. This logo distinguishes an original AlA
document from copies and counterfeits. To ensure accuracy and uniformity of language, purchasers should use only
an original A[A document or one that has been reproduced from an original under special limited license from AlA.
Documents generated by the software AlA Contract Documents: Electronic Format for WindowsTl" do not contain a
red logo. Documents reproduced in this program may be accompanied by A[A Document D401, Certification of
Document's Authenticity. In addition, all documents in the program contain the license number under which the
document was reproduced and the date of expiration of the license.
CHANGES FROM THE PREVIOUS EDITION
B151-1997 has been revised to reflect changes made in AlA Document AW1-I997, General Conditions of the Contract
for Construction, and in AlA Document BI41-1997, Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Architect.
Although it retains many similarities to the 1987 edition of B151, B151-1997 is primarily based upon the 1987 edition of
B141. The following changes in content have been made on the recommendation of owners, AlA members,
committees, and insurance and legal counsel.
ARTICLE 1: The Architect is required to designate a representative authorized to act on behalf of the Architect.
ARTICLE 2: The Architect's services are divided into five phases rather than three. Provisions have been added requiring
the Architect to review and provide a preliminary evaluation of the Owner's program, schedule and construction budget.
ARTICLE 3: A more extensive list of Additional Services is offered, and these are subdivided into three categories: Project
Representation Beyond Basic Services, Contingent Additional Services, and Optional Additional Services.
ARTICLE 4: A provision has been added requiring the Owner to furnish services of consultants that are reasonably
required by the scope of the Project and are requested by the Architect.
ARTICLE 5: The cost of management or supervision of construction or installation provided by a construction
manager or separate contractor has be.en added to the definition of Construction Cost.
ARTICLE 6: Protection of the Architect's and consultant's rights in Drawings, Specifications, and other documents is
clarified and specifically extended to documents in electronic form. .
ARTICLE 7: The title of this Article has been changed from "Arbitration" to "Dispute Resolution." Mediation has been
added as a precursor to arbitration. and a waiver of claims for consequential damages (i.e.. indirect damages) has been
added.
ARTICLE 8: A new provision has been added permitting termination of the Agreement for the Owner's convenience, with
appropriate compensation to the Architect.
ARTICLE 9: A provision has been added under which the Owner may assign this Agreement to an institutional lender
providing financing for the Project. New language has been added governing Owner requests for certification.
ARTICLE 10: A new provision, Architect's Accounting Records. requires the Architect to make records of reimbursable
expenses and expenses pertaining to Additional Services and services performed on the basis of a multiple of Direct
Personnel Expense available to the Owner.
USING THE 8151-1997 FORM
MODIFICATIONS. Users are encouraged to consult with an attorney before completing an AlA document.
Particularly with respect to contractor's licensing laws, duties imposed by building codes, interest charges, arbitration
and indemnification, this document may require modification with the assistance of legal counsel to fully comply with
state or local laws regulating these matters.

Commercial exchanges are greatly simpliti~d and expedited, good-faith dealing is encouraged, and otherwise lalent

ENGAGEMENT OF KOBI KARP TO PROVIDE DESIGN AND

CONSTRUCTION SUPERVISION SERVICES RELATING TO
City Manager
THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT
Lynn M. Dannheisser
City Attomey
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommend that the City Commission, by resolution, engage the services of Kobi
Karp to complete the design of the Police Department facility and to provide
construction supervision services.
REASONS
Mr. Karp performed services for the design of the City Hall facility. Thus, he is
already familiar with the needs of the new Sunny Isles Beach city government. The
agreement negotiated at a total cost of $7,500 is regarded as being favorable to the
City. There is an urgency to complete this project if we are to assume complete
police services by August 1, 1998. The necessity of having an operational Police
Department by that date is derived from Miami -Dade County charging the City of
Sunny Isles Beach $290,000 each month for police services. For the above reasons,
it is recommended that the Commission authorize the engagement of Kobi Karp at
this time.
Respectfull 7 submitted,
James DiPietro,
City Manager
