Work hours are strictly 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday, with weekend work requiring engineer approval. Work must commence within 10 days of Notice to Proceed and be completed within 80 calendar days of commencement. The City expects minimum 50% completion before weather suspension, with resumption permitted in spring. Traffic control on arterial roadways must include signage, devices, and a separate vehicle with an arrow board, with all controls and closures completed by 7:00 p.m. daily.

The contract term is one year with two optional one-year renewal periods covering 2027 and 2028 crack seal projects. First-year prices are firm; renewal pricing permits 5% annual increases. Bidders must submit a bid bond equal to 5% of the total bid amount, plus performance and payment bonds each equal to 100% of the contract amount, valid one year after anticipated completion. Subcontractors cannot collectively exceed 50% of contract price without prior written engineer approval. Liquidated damages are $500 per day for late completion and $250 per day for late punch list completion. Award goes to the lowest and most responsible bidder, with contractor experience and previous Sandy City work as determining factors.
