This is a Certificate of Final Payment form used by Clay County, Florida in conjunction with the Tile Replacement project at the Clay County Jail. The certificate serves as the vendor's attestation that all work has been completed in accordance with contract terms and that all subcontractors and suppliers have received their pro rata shares of previous progress payments. The form requires the vendor to certify that within 10 days of receiving the final progress payment, all subcontractors and suppliers will be paid their full shares for completed work and furnished materials. The certificate must be signed and dated by an authorized representative of the vendor and submitted to the County prior to processing of the final payment.

The Certificate of Final Payment is a standard contractual document that protects the County by requiring vendors to confirm completion of all contracted work and proper payment distribution to all parties with financial interests in the project. This form is typically submitted at the conclusion of a construction or service contract and serves as a prerequisite for the County's final payment authorization. For the tile replacement project, which involves comprehensive removal and installation of detention-grade tile across multiple facility wings with a substantial completion timeline of 160 days from Notice to Proceed, this certification ensures accountability and validates that all contractual obligations have been fulfilled before the County releases final compensation.
