SITE PLAN:

The subject property, which is situated in a suburban area characterized by commercial, residential, institutional, and light industrial development, consists of a 0.79-acre parcel of land improved with a 4,000 square foot (SF) commercial retail building anchored by a convenience store and filling station. The subject property was operating as Chevron Food Mart and selling Chevron branded fuels. The building is equipped with an additional tenant space, occupied by Langley Express Café Additional improvements include a metal fueling canopy, paved access drives, customer parking, and landscaped grounds.

• Building(s) Asbestos & Lead Paint Survey:

No asbestos survey or lead-based paint survey has been provided to the City at this time. The structure was constructed in 1988, and the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment indicates that asbestos-containing materials and lead-based paint are not expected to be present in significant quantities due to the age of the building.

However, any suspect materials encountered during demolition shall be properly evaluated and managed in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations prior to disturbance or removal.

The following paint samples were found to contain concentrations of Lead greater than 0.5% by weight:

The tanks were installed on June 1, 1988, and are registered with the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) as “currently in use” under Facility ID 9067340. The tanks are of double-walled fiberglass construction and equipped with fiberglass reinforced plastic piping, spill and overfill protection. Release detection is accomplished through automatic tanks gauging, line tightness testing, and mechanical line leak detectors.

The UST system must be removed by a qualified contractor in accordance with Georgia EPD Underground Storage Tank Management Program (USTMP) rules and regulations. This would include submittal of a certified UST Closure Report to the Georgia EPD-USTMP.

CONTRACT

This CONTRACT made and entered into this day of , 20 by and between the City of Lawrenceville, Georgia, a Georgia Municipal Corporation, duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Georgia (Party of the First Part, hereinafter called the City), and , (Party of the Second Part, hereinafter called the Contractor).

WITNESSETH: That the Contractor has agreed, and by these presents does agree, with the City for the consideration herein mentioned to furnish all equipment, tools, material, skill, knowledge and labor of every description necessary to carry out and complete in a good, firm, substantial and workmanlike manner the work required under the Contract Documents and under the provisions of the Performance Bond and Payment Bond. The term Contract Documents shall include: the Drawings and Specifications of the project, the Proposal made by the Contractor, the Advertisement, the Instructions to Bidder, the Bid Form, the General Conditions and this Contract. The work shall be performed in strict conformity with the Contract Documents and said Contract Documents shall all form essential parts of the Contract. The work covered by this Contract includes all work shown on the plans and specifications and listed in the conditions and specifications to wit:

The Contractor awarded work under this contract shall commence work within ten (10) days after the issuance of the Notice to Proceed and shall fully complete all work hereunder within 30 consecutive calendar days from and after said date.

CITY and CONTRACTOR recognize that time is the essence of this Agreement. If the WORK is not substantially complete within the time specified (plus any extension of time allowed in the General Conditions), the CITY will suffer damage and loss that is difficult to calculate. The CITY and CONTRACTOR recognize and agree that the damage and loss that CITY will suffer if the WORK is not completed in a timely manner in accordance with the contract terms is difficult or impossible to accurately calculate. Therefore, CITY and CONTRACTOR agree that a reasonable amount to fully compensate CITY for damage and loss it would incur as a result of the failure of CONTRACTOR to complete the WORK in the time allowed by this Agreement shall be the sum of $500.00 per day. The amount in this provision is an amount CITY and CONTRACTOR agree upon as a reasonable amount of damages to fully compensate the CITY for any damage or loss it would suffer from a delay in the timely completion of the WORK, and is intended to provide CITY with reasonable liquidated damages and is not intended as a penalty.

The City shall pay and the Contractor shall receive the prices stipulated in the proposal hereto attached as full compensation for everything furnished and done by the Contractor under this contract, which shall in no event exceed _____________________________ ($ ) based on the proposal which sum shall be paid in the manner and terms specified in the Contract Documents, but before issuance of certificate of payment, if the Contractor shall not have submitted evidence satisfactory to the City that all payrolls, materials bills, and other indebtedness connected with the work have been paid, the City may withhold, in addition to the retained percentages, such amount or amounts as may be necessary to pay just claims for labor and services

00520-2 rendered and materials in and about the work, and such amount or amounts withheld or retained may be applied by the City to the payment of such just claims.

When the Contractor has performed in accordance with the provisions of this Contract, the City of Lawrenceville shall pay to the Contractor, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any payment request based upon work completed or service provided pursuant to the Contract, the sum so requested, less the retainage stated in this Contract, if any. In the event that the City of Lawrenceville fails to pay the Contractor within sixty (60) days of receipt of a pay request based upon work completed or service provided pursuant to the Contract, the City shall pay the Contractor interest at the rate of l/2% per month or pro rata fraction thereof, beginning the sixty-first (61st) day following receipt of the pay request. The Contractor's acceptance of progress payments or final payment shall release all claims for interest on said payments.

It is further mutually agreed between the Parties hereto that if, at any time after the execution of the Contract and the Performance Bond for its faithful performance and the Payment Bond, the first party shall deem the surety or sureties upon such bond to be inadequate to cover the performance of the work, the second party shall, at its expense, within five (5) days after the receipt of notice from the first party to do so, furnish an additional bond or bonds in such form and amount, and with such surety or sureties as shall be satisfactory to the first party. In such event, no further payment to the second party shall be deemed to be due under this Contract until such new or additional security for the faithful performance of the work shall be furnished in a manner and form satisfactory to the first party.

The parties agree that each of the provisions included in this Contract is separate, distinct and severable from the other and remaining provisions of this…
