About this file

This document is a Supplementary Conditions of the Construction Contract prepared by the National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers for the Town of Breckenridge, Colorado. The supplementary conditions document provides detailed modifications and additions to the standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract, specifically for a roadway and utility installation project known as the McCain Access Road. The document outlines comprehensive requirements for the contractor, including working hours (7:00 AM to 7:00 PM Monday through Friday), mandatory business licensing with the Town of Breckenridge, right-of-way permitting, and compliance with local regulations.

The contract includes specific insurance and bonding requirements, with policy limits for commercial general liability set at $1,000,000 per occurrence, automobile liability at $500,000, and workers' compensation at statutory levels. The Town of Breckenridge is a tax-exempt entity, and the contract is subject to annual appropriation by the Town Council. A notable provision is the "Keep Jobs in Colorado Act of 2013," which requires the contractor to employ at least 80% Colorado labor unless a waiver is granted. The contract also establishes a two-year correction period for defective work and includes provisions for change orders, payment processes, and dispute resolution, all governed by Colorado state laws.
