Article 2. CONTRACT TIMES.
2.1 The Work will be substantially completed within 90 calendar days after the date when the Contract
Times commence to run, and completed and ready for final payment within 120 calendar days after the date when the Contract Times commence to run.
2.2 Liquidated Damages. County and Contractor recognize that time is of the essence of this Agreement and that County will suffer financial loss if the Work is not completed within the times specified in paragraph 3.1 above, plus any extensions thereof allowed by the County. They also recognize the delays, expense and difficulties involved in proving the actual loss suffered by County if the Work is not completed on time.
Accordingly, instead of requiring of such proof, County and Contractor agree that as liquidated damages for delay (but not as a penalty) Contractor shall pay County the amount specified in Paragraph 3.3. for each day that expires after the time specified in paragraph 3.1 for Substantial Completion until the Work is substantially complete. After Substantial Completion, if Contractor shall neglect, refuse, or fail to complete the remaining Work within the time specified in paragraph 3.1 for completion and readiness for final payment or any proper extension thereof granted by County, Contractor shall pay County the amount specified in Paragraph 3.3. for each day that expires after the time specified in paragraph 3.1 for completion and readiness for final payment. The Contractor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any right which it may have to seek to characterize the liquidated damages as a penalty, which the Parties agree represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the County’s actual damages at the time of contracting if the Contractor fails to substantially complete the Work in a timely manner.
2.3 Liquidated Damages are based upon the original contract amount, as established by Santa Rosa County.
Liquidated damages, based upon the original contract amount of $BID AMOUNT, will be Seventy-Five Dollars
($75.00) per calendar day.
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SCHEDULE
Phase Begin Date Consecutive Calendar Days to Complete Liquidated Damages
1 Notice to Proceed 10 $75.00 as Referenced on 25-005
Entire Project 90 $75.00 as Referenced on 25-005
Article 3. CONTRACT PRICE.
County shall pay Contractor for completion of the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents an amount in current funds equal to the sum of the established unit price for each separately identified item of
Unit Price Work times the estimated quantity of that item as indicated in the Bid Schedule submitted in the
Bid Form. The cost of this project is $BID AMOUNT as per the attached Contractor bid.
Estimated quantities are not guaranteed, and determinations of actual quantities and classification are to be made by Engineer.
Article 4. PAYMENT PROCEDURES
Contractor shall submit Application for Payment in accordance with Contract. Applications for Payment will be processed by Engineer as provided in the contract.
22 | P a g e
4.1 Progress Payments; Retainage. County shall make progress payments on account of the Contract Price on the basis of Contractor's Applications for Payment as recommended by Engineer, on or about the fifteenth
(15th) day of each month during construction as provided in paragraph 5.1.1. All such payments will be measured based on the number of units completed. Payments to the Contractor shall in no way imply approval or acceptance of Contractor’s work.
4.1.1 Contractor may be paid 95 % of Work completed (with the balance being retainage), less the aggregate of payments previously made and less such amounts as Engineer shall determine, or
County may withhold. Contractor may be paid 95 % (with the balance being retainage) of materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work (but delivered, suitably stored and accompanied by documentation satisfactory to County).
4.1.2 Retainage requirements may be changed to reflect a proposed change to state regulatory statutes.
4.2 Final Payment. Upon final completion and acceptance of the Work, County shall pay the remainder of the Contract Price as recommended by Engineer.
4.2.1 Contractor’s acceptance of final payment shall constitute a full waiver of any and all claims by
Contractor against the County arising out of this Agreement or otherwise relating to the Project, except those previously made in writing and identified by Contractor as unsettled at the time of the final Application for Payment. Neither the acceptance of the Work nor payment by the County shall be deemed to be a waiver of the County’s right to enforce any obligations of the Contractor hereunder or to the recovery of damages for defective Work not discovered by the Engineer or the
County at the time of final inspection.
4.3 Payments Withheld
4.3.1 The Engineer or the County may decline to approve any Applications for Payment, or portions thereof, because of subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent inspections. The Engineer or the
County may nullify the whole or any part of any inspections. The Engineer or the County may nullify the whole or any part of any approval for payment previously issued and the County may withhold any payments otherwise due Contractor under this Agreement or any other agreement between the
County and the Contractor, to such extent as may be necessary in the County’s opinion to protect it from loss because of:
4.3.1.1 Defective Work not remedied;
4.3.1.2 Third party claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of such claims;
4.3.1.3 Failure of Contractor to make payment properly to subcontractors or for labor, materials or equipment;
4.3.1.4 Reasonable doubt that the Work can be completed for the unpaid balance of the
Contract Amount;
4.3.1.5 Reasonable indication that the Work will not be completed within the Contract Time;
4.3.1.6 Unsatisfactory prosecution of the Work by the Contractor;
4.3.1.7 Failure to provide accurate and current “As-Builts”; or
4.3.1.8 Any other material breach of the Contract Documents.
23 | P a g e
4.3.2 If these conditions in Subsection 5.3.1 are not remedied or removed, the County may after three (3) days written notice, rectify the same at Contractor’s expense. The County also may offset against any sums due Contractor the amount of any liquidated or unliquidated obligations of
Contractor to the County, whether relating to or arising out of his Agreement or any other agreement between Contractor and the County.
