The request must itemize all proposed increases by line item and include supporting documentation deemed acceptable by the City of Santa Fe (such as a letter from a manufacturer indicating price increases, etc.).
The City's decision on acceptable documentation in this context shall be final and binding upon all parties to the contract.

The contractor represents and warrants that it is knowledgeable of and complies with all insurance requirements applicable to its industry and scope of work. The City’s failure to specify a particular type of insurance shall not relieve the contractor of responsibility for maintaining appropriate industry-standard coverage.

The contractor shall require all subcontractors to maintain insurance consistent with these requirements and is responsible for verifying compliance.

The awarded contractor shall name the City of Santa Fe, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers as
Additional Insureds on all required liability insurance policies, except where prohibited by law. Coverage afforded to the City shall be primary and non-contributory with respect to any insurance carried by the City.
Within a reasonable time after notification of tentative award, and prior to contract execution or commencement of any work, the contractor shall provide the City with certificates of insurance and required endorsements evidencing compliance with all insurance requirements of this solicitation and contract. Such documentation shall be provided promptly upon request and shall be subject to review and approval by the City. Failure to provide acceptable proof of insurance in a timely manner may result in withdrawal of the tentative award or delay in contract execution, at the City’s sole discretion.
The City reserves the right, at any time during the contract term, to require the contractor to provide evidence of additional insurance coverage determined by the City to be reasonably necessary based on the nature of the work, changes in scope, or identified risk exposures. The City may independently verify compliance, including conducting research or benchmarking against industry standards.
All insurance policies shall provide that coverage shall not be canceled, materially reduced, or allowed to expire without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the City.
The procurement and maintenance of insurance by the contractor shall not be construed as limiting the contractor’s liability or obligations under the contract.
