City's instructions in connection with signs, advertisements, fires and smoking. Contractor shall arrange
and cooperate with City in routing and parking of automobiles of their employees, subcontractors and
other personnel, and in routine material delivery trucks and other vehicles to the Project site. The

improvements damaged during construction of the Project shall be restored at the expense of the
Contractor to a condition equal to that existing at the time of award of Contract.
5.34. Work by Others: The City may perform additional Work related to the Project, or may let other
direct contracts therefore which shall contain General Conditions similar to these. The Contractor will
afford the other contractors who are parties to such direct contracts (or the City, if they are performing
the additional Work themselves), reasonable opportunity for the introduction and storage of materials
and equipment and the execution of Work, and shall properly connect and coordinate their Work with
theirs.
5.34.1. If any part of the Contractor's Work depends upon proper execution or results of the Work of any

their Work and will only cut or alter their Work with the written consent of the Consultant and of
the other Contractor's whose Work will be affected.
5.34.3 If the performance of additional Work by other contractors or the City is not noted in the
Contract Documents prior to the execution of the Contract, written notice thereof shall be given
to the Contractor prior to starting any such additional Work. If the Contractor believes that the
performance of such additional Work by the City or others involves them in additional expense or
entitles them to an extension of the Contract Time, they may make a claim therefore as provided
in this document.
5.34.4 Where practicable, the Contractor shall build around the Work of other separate Contractor's or
shall leave chases, slots and holes as required to receive and to conceal within the general
construction Work the Work of such other separate Contractor's as directed by them. Where
such chases, slots, etc., are impracticable, the Work shall require specific approval of the
Consultant.
5.34.5 Necessary chases, slots, and holes not built or left by the Contractor shall be cut by the separate

Contractor's. Should lack of progress or defective workmanship on the part of other Contractor's
interfere with their operations, the Contractor shall notify the Consultant immediately. Lack of

the status of the Work of other Contractor's as being satisfactory for proper coordination of their
own Work.
5.34.8 The cost of extra Work resulting from lack of notices, untimely notices, failure to respond to
notices, defective Work or lack of coordination shall be borne by the Contractor responsible for
such lack of notices, etc.
5.35. City's Responsibility: The City will issue all communications to the Contractor; the City will
furnish the data required of them under the Contract Documents promptly; and the City's duties in
respect to providing lands and easements are set forth in this section. The City shall have the right to
take possession of and use any completed or partially completed portions of the Work, notwithstanding
the fact that the time for completing the entire Work or any portion thereof may not have expired; but
such taking possession and use shall not be deemed an acceptance of any Work not completed in
accordance with the Contract Documents.
5.36. Consultant's Status During Construction: The Consultant shall be the City's representative
during the construction period. The duties and responsibilities and the limitations of authority of the
Consultant as the City's representative during construction are set forth in this document these General

Documents. Except as may be otherwise provided in this contract, all claims, counterclaims, disputes and
other matters in question between the City and the Contractor arising out of or relating to this Agreement
or the breach thereof, will be decided in a court of competent jurisdiction within the State of Florida.
5.36.1 Visits to Site: The Consultant will provide periodic on site observations to observe the
progress and quality of the executed Work and to determine, if the Work is proceeding in
accordance with the Contract Documents. Their efforts will be directed toward providing
assurance for the City that the completed Project will conform to the requirements of the
Contract Documents. On the basis of these on site-observations as an experienced and
qualified design professional, they will keep the City informed of the progress of the Work and
will guard the City against defects and deficiencies in the Work of Contractor's.
5.36.2 Clarifications and Interpretations: The Consultant will issue with reasonable promptness
such written clarifications or interpretations of the Contract Documents (in the form of Drawings
or otherwise) as he may determine necessary, which shall be consistent with or reasonably
inferable from the overall intent of the Contract Documents. If the Contractor believes that a
written clarification and interpretation entitles them to an increase in the Contract Price or
extension of Contract Time, they may make a claim therefore as provided in this section.
5.37. Measurement of Quantities: All work completed under the Contract will be measured by the
City and its Consultant according to the United States Standard Measures. All linear surface
measurements will be made horizontally or vertically as required by the item measured.
5.38. Rejecting Defective Work: The City or Consultant will have authority to disapprove or reject
Work which is "defective" (which term is hereinafter used to describe Work that is unsatisfactory, faulty

to time, order additions, deletions or revisions in the Work; these shall be authorized by Change Orders.
Upon receipt of a Change Order, the Contractor will 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 this document. A Change Order signed by the
Contractor indicates their agreement therewith.
5.42.1. The Consultant may authorize minor changes or alterations in the Work not involving extra cost
and not inconsistent with the overall intent of the Contract Documents. These may be
accomplished by a Field Order. If the Contractor believes that any minor change or alteration
authorized by the Consultant entitles them to an increase in the Contract Price or extension of
Contract Time, they may make a claim therefore as provided in this document.
5.42.2.Additional Work performed by the Contractor without authorization of a Change Order will not
PAGE 25 OF 130
BID No. 08-10-01
entitle them to an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the Contract Time, except in
the case of an emergency as provided in this document.
5.42.3. The City will execute appropriate Change Orders prepared by the Consultant covering changes in
the Work, to be performed and Work performed in an emergency as provided in this section and

of the Work or change in the Contract Price or Contract Time and the amount of the applicable
bonds shall be adjusted accordingly. The Contractor will furnish proof of such an adjustment to
the City.

the Contractor for performing the Work. All duties, responsibilities and obligations assigned to or
undertaken by the Contractor shall be at their expense without changing the Contract Price.
5.43.1. The City may, at any time, without written notice to the sureties, by written order designated or
indicated to be a Change Order, make any change in the Work within the general scope of the
Contract, including but not limited to changes: in the specifications (including drawings and

equipment, materials, services, or site; or directing acceleration in the performance of the Work.
5.43.2. Except as herein provided, no order, statement, or conduct of the City shall be treated as a
change under this clause or entitle the Contractor to an equitable adjustment hereunder.
5.43.3. If any change order under this clause causes an increase or decrease in the Contractor's cost of,
or the time required for, the performance of any part of the Work, under this Contract, whether
or not changed by any order, an equitable adjustment shall be made and the Contract modified
in writing accordingly.
5.43.4. If the Contractor intends to assert a claim for an equitable adjustment under this clause, he

agreed upon fee to the Contractor and to cover overhead and profit.
5.43.7. The term cost of the Work means the sum of all direct costs necessarily incurred and paid by the
Contractor in the proper performance of the Work. Except as otherwise may be agreed to in

will be issued as recommended by Consultant to reflect actual amounts due Contractor on account of
Work covered by allowances, and the Contract Price shall be correspondingly adjusted.
5.45. Unit Price Work: Where the Contract Documents provide that all or part of the Work is to be
Unit Price Work, initially the Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an amount
equal to the sum of the unit price for each separately identified item of Unit Price Work times the
estimated quantity of each item indicated in the Agreement.
5.45.1 The estimated quantities of Unit Price Work are not guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of
comparison of Bids and determining an initial Contract Price. Determination of the actual
quantities and classifications of Unit Price Work performed by the Contractor will be made by the

PAGE 28 OF 130
BID No. 08-10-01

and significantly from the estimated quantity of such item indicated in the Agreement; and
5.45.3.2 there is no corresponding adjustment with respect to any other item of Work; and
5.45.3.3 Contractor believes that he/she is entitled to an increase in Contract Price as a result in
having incurred additional expense or City believes that City is entitled to a decrease in Contract
Price and the parties are unable to agree as to the amount of any such increase or decrease.
5.46. Time for Completion, Liquidated Damages and Change of the Contract Time: The
date of beginning and the time for completion of the Work are essential conditions of the Contract
Documents and the Work shall be commenced on the date specified in the Notice to Proceed.
5.46.1 The Contractor will proceed with the Work at such rate of progress to insure full completion
within the Contract Time. It is expressly understood and agreed, by and between the Contractor
and the City, that the Contract Time for the completion of the Work described herein is a
reasonable time, taking into consideration the average climatic and economic conditions and
other factors prevailing in the locality of the Work.
5.46.2 If the Contractor shall fail to complete the Work within the Contract Time, or extension of time
granted by the City, then the Contractor will pay to the City the amount for liquidated damages
as specified in the Agreement, Section 13, for each calendar day that the Contractor shall be
default after the time stipulated in the Contract Documents.
5.46.2.1 These amounts are not penalties but are liquidated damages to City for its inability to
obtain full use of the Project. Liquidated damages are hereby fixed and agreed upon between
the parties, recognizing the impossibility of precisely ascertaining the amount of damages that
will be sustained by City as a consequence of such delay, and both parties desiring to obviate any
question or dispute concerning the amount of said damages and the cost and effect of the failure
of Contractor to complete the Contract on time. The above-stated liquidated damages shall
apply separately to each phase of the Project for which a time for completion is given.
5.46.2.2 City is authorized to deduct the liquidated damages from monies due to Contractor for
the Work under this Contract.
5.46.2.3 Contractor shall be responsible for reimbursing City, in addition to liquidated damages,
for all costs incurred by City for the Consultant's fees in administering the construction of the
Project due to the failure of the Contractor to comply with the Contract Documents, to also
include additional time beyond an approved extension of time granted to Contractor, whichever
date is later. Such costs shall be deducted from the monies due Contractor for performance of
Work under this Contract by means of a unilateral Change Order issued by the City.
5.46.3 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 the City and Consultant within five
(5) days of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the claim and stating the general nature of
the claim including supporting data.
All claims for adjustment in the Contract Time shall be evaluated and recommended by the
Consultant, with final approval by the City's representative. Any change in the Contract Time
resulting from any such claim shall be incorporated in a Change Order.
5.46.4 All time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Agreement.
PAGE 29 OF 130
BID No. 08-10-01
5.46.5 No claim for delay shall be allowed because of failure to furnish Drawings until fourteen (14)
days after demand to the Consultant for such Drawings and not then unless such claim be
reasonable.
5.46.6 Extensions to the Contract Time for delays caused by the effects of inclement weather shall be
submitted as a request for a change in the Contract Time pursuant to the section. These time
extensions are justified only when rains or other inclement weather conditions or related adverse
soil conditions prevent Contractor from productively performing controlling items of Work
identified on the accepted schedule or updates resulting in:
5.46.6.1 Contractor being unable to work at least fifty percent (50%) of the normal workday on
controlling items of Work identified on the accepted schedule or updates due to adverse weather
conditions; or
5.46.6.2 Contractor must make major repairs to the Work damaged by weather. Provided the
damage was not attributable to a failure to perform or neglect by Contractor, and provided that
Contractor was unable to work at least fifty percent (50%) of the normal workday on controlling
items of Work identified on the accepted schedule or updates.
5.46.7 No Damages for Delay: No claim for damages or any claim, other than for an extension of time
as provided for in this Section shall be made or asserted against City by reason of any delays.
Contractor shall not be entitled to an increase in the Contract Price or payment or compensation
of any kind from City for direct, indirect, consequential, impact or other costs, expenses or
damages, including but not limited to, costs of acceleration or inefficiency, overhead or lost
profits, arising because of delay, disruption, interference or hindrance from any cause
whatsoever, whether such delay, disruption, interference or hindrance be reasonable or
unreasonable, foreseeable or unforeseeable, or avoidable or unavoidable. Contractor shall be
entitled only to extensions of the Contract Time as the sole and exclusive remedy for such
resulting delay.
5.47 Incentive Bonus: A Agreement provision which compensates the Contractor a certain amount
of money as stipulated in the Agreement for each day the Project is completed ahead of schedule for a
maximum of thirty (30) days. The City desires to expedite construction on this Agreement to
minimize the inconvenience to the public and to reduce the time of construction. In order to achieve this,
an incentive provision is established for the Agreement.
5.47.1 In the event the Contractor completes the Agreement prior to time stipulated in the Agreement,
the City will pay the Contractor an incentive payment in the Daily Value amount specified in the
Agreement for each calendar day the actual completion date precedes the Original Agreement
Time and subject to the conditions precedent set forth below. The term "Original Agreement
Time" will mean the number of calendar days established for completion of the work in the
Agreement on the date the Agreement was executed. The term "calendar day" will mean every
day shown on the calendar. Calendar days will be consecutively counted from commencement of
Agreement Time regardless of weather, weekends, holidays, suspensions of Contractor's
operations, delays or other events as described herein. For the purposes of the calculation and
the determination of entitlement to the "incentive payment" stated above, the Original
Agreement Time will not be adjusted for any reason, cause or circumstance whatsoever,
regardless of fault, save and except in the instance of catastrophic event (i.e., hurricane or a
declared state of emergency).
5.47.2 The parties anticipate that delays may be caused by or arise from any number of events during
the course of the Agreement, including, but not limited to, work performed, work deleted,
PAGE 30 OF 130
BlD No. 08-10-01
change orders, supplemental agreements, delays, disruptions, differing site conditions, utility
conflicts, design changes or defects, time extensions, extra work, right of way issues, permitting
issues, actions of suppliers, subcontractors or other contractors, actions by third parties, shop
drawing approval process delays, expansion of the physical limits of the project to make it
functional, weather, weekends, holidays, suspensions of Contractor's operations, or other such
events, forces or factors sometimes experienced in highway construction work. Such delays or
events and their potential impacts on performance by the Contractor are specifically
contemplated and acknowledged by the parties in entering into this contract, and shall not
extend the Original Agreement Time for purposes of calculation of the "incentive payment" set
forth above. Further, any and all costs or impacts whatsoever incurred by the Contractor in
accelerating the Contractor's work to overcome or absorb such delays or events in an effort to
complete the Contract prior to expiration of the Original Agreement Time, regardless of whether
the Contractor successfully does so or not, shall be the sole responsibility of the Contractor in
every instance.
5.47.3 In the event of a catastrophic event (i.e., hurricane or a declared state of emergency) directly
and substantially affecting the Contractor's operations on the Agreement, the Contractor and the
City shall agree as to the number of calendar days to extend the Original Agreement Time so that
such extended Original Agreement Time will be used in calculation of the "incentive payment". In
the event the Contractor and City are unable to agree to the number of calendar days to extend
the Original Agreement Time, the City shall unilaterally determine the number of calendar days to
extend the Original Agreement Time reasonably necessary and due solely to such catastrophic
event and the Contractor shall have no right whatsoever to contest such determination, save and
except that the Contractor establishes the number of calendar days determined by the City were
arbitrary or without any reasonable basis.
5.48. Guarantee: The Contractor shall guarantee and unconditionally warranty through either the
manufacturer or the Contractor directly, all materials and equipment furnished and Work performed for a
period of one and one half years (1-1/2) from the date of Final Acceptance as indicated in the
Consultant's Letter of Recommendation of Acceptance. The City will give notice of observed defects with
reasonable promptness. In the event that the Contractor should fail to promptly correct such defective or
non-conforming Work, the City may cause the defective Work to be removed or corrected at the
Contractor's expense, and the City may charge the Contractor the cost thereby incurred. The
Performance Bond shall remain in full force and effect through the guarantee period.
5.48.1 The specific warranty periods listed in the Contract Documents, if different from the period of
time listed above shall be applicable.
5.49. Substantial Completion: When Contractor considers the entire Work ready for its intended
use Contractor shall notify City and Consultant in writing that the entire Work is substantially complete
(except for items specifically listed by Contractor as incomplete) and request that Consultant issue a
letter of Substantial Completion. Promptly after Contractor's notification, City, Contractor, and Consultant
shall make an inspection of the Work to determine the status of completion. If Consultant does not
consider the Work substantially complete, Consultant will notify Contractor in writing giving the reasons
therefore. If Consultant considers the Work substantially complete, Consultant will deliver to City a
tentative letter of Substantial Completion which shall fix the date of Substantial Completion. There shall
be attached to the letter a punch list of items to be completed or corrected before final payment.
5.49.1 Partial Utilization: Prior to Substantial Completion of all the Work, City may use or occupy any
substantially completed part of the Work which has specifically been identified in the Contract
Documents, or which City, Consultant, and Contractor agree constitutes a separately functioning and
usable part of the Work that can be used by City for its intended purpose without significant interference
with Contractor's performance of the remainder of the Work, subject to the following conditions.
PAGE 31 OF 130
BID No. 08-10-01
5.49.1.1 City at any time may request Contractor in writing to permit City to use or occupy
any such part of the Work which City believes to be ready for its intended use and substantially
complete. If and when Contractor agrees that such part of the Work is substantially complete,
Contractor will certify to City and Consultant that such part of the Work is substantially complete
and request Consultant to issue a letter of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work.
5.49.1.2. Contractor at any time may notify City and Consultant in writing that Contractor
considers any such part of the Work ready for its intended use and substantially complete and
request Consultant to issue a letter of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work.
5.49.1.3 Within a reasonable time after either such request, City, Contractor, and Consultant
shall make an inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status of completion. If
Consultant does not consider that part of the Work to be substantially complete, Consultant will
notify City and Contractor in writing giving the reasons therefore. If Consultant considers that
part of the Work to be substantially complete, the provisions above will apply with respect to
certification of Substantial Completion of that part of the Work and division of responsibility in
respect thereof and access thereto.
5.50. final Inspection: Upon written notice from Contractor that the entire Work or an agreed
portion thereof is complete, Consultant will promptly make a final inspection with City 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 complete
such Work or remedy such deficiencies. After Contractor has, in the opinion of Consultant, satisfactorily
completed all corrections identified during the final inspection and has delivered, in accordance with the
Contract Documents, all maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, bonds,
certificates or other evidence of insurance certificates of inspection, as-built documents, Consultant will
issue a letter of final acceptance, and Contractor may make application for final payment following the
procedure for progress payments.
5.51. Payments to Contractor: At least ten (10) days before each progress payment falls due (but
not more often than once a month), the Contractor will submit to the Consultant a partial payment
estimate filled out and signed by the Contractor covering the Work performed during the period covered
by the partial payment estimate and supported by such data as the City and its Consultant may
reasonably require.
5.51.1. If payment is requested on the basis of materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work
but delivered and suitably stored at or near site, the partial payment estimate shall also be
accompanied by such supporting data, satisfactory to the City, and will establish the City's title to
the material and equipment and protect their interest therein, including applicable insurance.
The Consultant will within ten (10) days after receipt of each partial payment estimate, either
indicate in writing their approval of payment and present the partial payment estimate to the
City, or return the partial payment estimate to the Contractor, indicating in writing their reasons
for refusing to approve payment. In the latter case, the Contractor may make the necessary
corrections and resubmit the partial payment estimate. The City, will within thirty (30) days of
presentation to them of any approved partial payment estimate, pay the Contractor a progress

PAGE 32 OF 130
BID No. 08-10-01
5.51.2. The City shall have the right to demand and receive from the Contractor, before he shall receive
final payment, final releases of lien executed by all persons, firms or corporations who have
performed or furnished labor, services or materials, directly or indirectly, used in the Work.
Likewise, as a condition to receiving any progress payment, the City may require the Contractor
to furnish partial releases of lien executed by all persons, firms and corporations who have
furnished labor, services or materials incorporated into the Work during the period of time for
which the progress payment is due, releasing such lien rights those persons, firms or
corporations may have for that period.
5.51.3. The Contractor warrants and guarantees that title to all Work, materials and equipment covered
by an Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the Project or not, will have passed to
the City prior to the making of the Application for Payment, free and clear of all liens, claims,
security interest and encumbrances (hereafter in these General Conditions referred to as
"Liens"); and that no Work, materials or equipment covered by an Application for Payment will
have been acquired by the Contractor or by any other person performing the Work at the site or
furnishing materials and equipment for the Project, subject to an agreement under which an
interest therein or encumbrance thereon is retained by the seller or otherwise imposed by the
Contractor or such other person.
5.52. Approval of Payment: The Consultant's approval of any payment requested in an Application for
Payment shall constitute a representation by them to the City, based on the Consultant's on site
observations of the Work in progress as an experienced and qualified design professional and on their
review of the Application for Payment and supporting data, that the Work has progressed to the point
indicated; that, to the best of their 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, to the results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract Documents
and any qualifications stated in their approval); and that the Contractor is entitled to payment of the
amount approved. However, by approving any such payment the Consultant shall not thereby be
deemed to have represented that they made exhaustive or continuous on-site observations to check the
quality or the quantity of the Work, or that they have reviewed the means, methods, techniques,
sequences and procedures of construction or that they had made any examination to ascertain how or for
what purpose the Contractor has used the moneys paid or to be paid to them on account of the Contract
Price, or that title to any Work, materials, or equipment has passed to the City free and clear of any liens.
5.52.1. The Contractor shall make the following certification on each request for payment:
"I hereby certify that the labor and materials listed on this request for payment have been used
in the construction of this Work or that all materials included in this request for payment and not
yet incorporated into the construction are now on the site or stored at an approved location, and
payment received from the last request for payment has been used to make payments to all first
tier Subcontractors and suppliers except as listed below".
5.52.2.The Consultant may refuse to approve the whole or any part of any payment if, in their opinion,
they are unable to make such representations to the City. They may also refuse to approve any
payment, or because of subsequently discovered evidence or the results of subsequent inspection
or tests, nullify any such payment previously approved, to such extent as may be necessary in
their opinion to protect the City from loss because:
5.52.2.1. The Work is defective, or completed Work has been damaged requiring correction or
replacement,
5.52.2.2. The Work for which payment is requested cannot be verified,
5.52.2.3. Claims or Liens have been filed or there is reasonable evidence indicating the probable
PAGE 33 OF 130

filing thereof,

5.52.2.5. The City has been required to correct defective Work or complete the Work in
accordance with this section.

5.52.2.8. Of liquidated damages payable by the Contractor, or
5.52.2.9.0f any other violation of, or failure to comply with provisions of the Contract
Documents.
5.52.3. Prior to Final Acceptance the City, with the approval of the Consultant and with the concurrence
of the Contractor, may use any completed or substantially completed portions of the Work. Such
use shall not constitute an acceptance of such portions of the Work.
5.52.4 The City shall have the right to enter the premises for the purpose of doing Work not covered by
the Contract Documents. This provision shall not be construed as relieving the Contractor of the
sole responsibility for the care and protection of the Work, or the restoration of any damaged
Work except such as may be caused by agents or employees of the City.
5.52.5 Upon completion and acceptance of the Work the Consultant shall issue a certificate attached to
the final payment request that the Work has been accepted by them under the conditions of the
Contract Documents. The entire balance found to be due the Contractor, including the retained
percentages, but except such sums as may be lawfully retained by the City, shall be paid to the
Contractor within sixty (60) days of completion and acceptance of the Work.
5.53. Acceptance of Final Payment as Release: The Acceptance by the Contractor of final
payment shall be and shall operate as a release to the City and a waiver of all claims and all liability to
the Contractor other than claims in stated amounts as may be specifically excepted by the Contractor for
all things done or furnished in connection with the Work and for every act and neglect of the City and
others relating to or arising out of this Work. Any payment, however, final or otherwise, shall not release
the Contractor of their sureties from any obligations under the Contract Documents or the Performance
Bond and Payment Bonds.
5.54. Suspension Of Work And Termination: The City may, at any time and without cause,
suspend the Work or any portion thereof for a period of not more than ninety (90) days by notice in
writing to the Contractor which shall fix the date on which Work shall be resumed. For suspensions
longer than ninety (90) days, the Contractor may be allowed an increase in the Contract Price or an
extension of the Contract Time, or both.
5.55. Work During Inclement Weather: No Work shall be done under these specifications except
by permission of the City when the weather is unfit for good and careful Work to be performed. Should
the severity of the weather continue, the Contractor upon the direction of the City or Consultant, shall
suspend all Work until instructed to resume operations by the City or Consultant and the Contract Time
pursuant to this section shall be extended to cover the duration of the order. Work damaged during
periods of suspension due to inclement weather shall be repaired and/or replaced by the Contractor. Any
PAGE 34 OF 130
BID No. 08-10-01
compensation for repairs or replacements shall be subject to approval of the City.
5.56. City May Terminate: If the Contractor is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or if they make a
general assignment for the benefit of their creditors, or if a trustee or receiver is appointed for the
Contractor or for any of their property, or if they file a petition to take advantage of any debtor's act, or
to reorganize under bankruptcy or similar laws, or if they repeatedly fails to supply sufficient skilled
workmen or suitable materials or equipment, or if they repeatedly fail to make prompt payments to Sub-
Contractors or for labor, materials or equipment or they disregards laws, ordinances, rules, regulations
or orders of any public body having jurisdiction, or if they disregard the authority of the City or
Consultant, of if they otherwise violates any provision of, the Contract Documents, then the City may,
without prejudice to any other right or remedy and after giving the Contractor and the surety ten (10)
days written notice, terminate the services of the Contractor and take possession of the Project and of all
materials, equipment, tools, construction equipment and machinery thereon owned by the Contractor,
and finish the Work by whatever method they may deem expedient. In such case the 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 Project, including compensation for
additional professional services, such excess shall be paid to the Contractor. If such costs exceed such
unpaid balance, the Contractor will pay the difference to the City. Such costs incurred by the City will be
determined by the Consultant and incorporated in a Change Order. If after termination of the Contractor
under this Section, it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction for any reason that the
Contractor was not in default, the rights and obligations of the City and the Contractor shall be the same
as if the termination had been issued pursuant to this document.
5.56.1. Where the Contractor's services have been so terminated by the City said termination shall not
affect any rights of the City against the Contractor then existing or which may thereafter accrue.
Any retention or payment of moneys by the City due the Contractor will not release the
Contractor from liability.
5.56.2. Upon ten (10) days written notice to the Contractor, the City may, without cause and without
prejudice to any other right or remedy, elect to terminate the Agreement. In such case, the
Contractor shall be paid for all Work executed and accepted by the City as of the date of the
termination. No payment shall be made for profit for Work which has not been performed.
5.57. Removal of Equipment: In the case of termination of this Contract before completion for any
cause whatever, the Contractor, if notified to do so by the City, shall promptly remove any part or all of
his equipment and supplies from the property of the City. Should the Contractor not remove such
equipment and supplies, the City shall have the right to remove them at the expense of the Contractor.
Equipment and supplies shall not be construed to include such items for which the Contractor has been
paid in whole or in part.
5.58. Contractor May Stop Work or Terminate: If, through no act or fault of the Contractor, the
Work is suspended for a period of more than ninety (90) days by the City or under an order of court of
other public authority, or the Consultant fails to act on any Application for Payment within thirty (30) days
after it is submitted, or the City fails to pay the Contractor any sum approved by the Consultant, within
thirty (30) calendar days of its approval, and presentation, then the Contractor may, upon twenty (20)
calendar days written notice to the City and the Consultant, terminate the Agreement. The City may
remedy the delay or neglect within the twenty (20) calendar days time frame. If timely remedies by the
City are achieved the Contract shall not be considered terminated. In lieu of terminating the Agreement,
if the Consultant has failed to act on an Application for Payment or the City has failed to make any
payment as aforesaid, the Contractor may upon ten (10) calendar days notice to the City and the
Consultant stop the Work until they have been paid all amounts then due.

11.2. I understand that a "public entity crime" as defined in Paragraph 287.133(1)(g), Florida Statutes,
means a violation of any state or federal law by a person with respect to and directly related to
the transaction of business with any public entity or with an agency or political subdivision of any

means a finding of guilt or a conviction of a public entity crime, with or without an adjudication of
guilt, in any federal or state trial court of record relating to charges brought by indictment or

Neither the entity submitting this sworn statement, nor any of it's officers, directors, executives,
partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the management of
the entity, nor any affiliate of the entity has been charged with and convicted of a public entity
crime subsequent to July 1, 1989.
The entity submitting this sworn statement, or one or more of its officers, directors, executives,
partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the management of
the entity, or an affiliate of the entity has been charged with and convicted of a public entity

Hearing Officer of the State of Florida, Division of Administrative Hearings and the Final Order
entered by the Hearing Officer of the State of Florida, Division of Administrative Hearings and the
Final Order entered by the Hearing Officer determined that it was not in the public interest to

specified in this section, plus any extensions thereof allowed in accordance with the General Conditions.

final payment, the Contract Price will be increased by the sum of One Thousand Five Hundred and
00/100 dollars ($1,500.00) for each calendar day up to a maximum of thirty (30) calendar days the
Project is fully complete prior to the time specified for completion and readiness for final payment and

and withhold payment on the contested amounts until they are resolved by agreement with Contractor.

contractor and shall be treated as such for all purposes. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any

maintain. Prior to the execution of this Agreement, and at any time upon request, Contractor shall
