Section G.7. - Prosecution and Progress G.7.1. Assignment and Subletting: The Contractor further agrees that he will retain personal control and will give his personal attention to the fulfillment of this contract and that he will not assign by Power of Attorney, or otherwise, or sublet said contract, without the written consent of the Town, and that no part of the work will be sublet to anyone objectionable to the Town Engineer. G-21 G.7.2. Prosecution of the Work: The Contractor shall begin the work to be performed under this contract within the time limit stated in these specifications, and shall conduct the work in such a manner and with sufficient equipment, materials, and labor as is necessary to insure its completion within the time limit. The sequence of all construction operations shall be at all times as directed by or approved by the Engineer. Such direction or approval by the Engineer shall not relieve the Contractor from the full responsibility of the complete performance of the contract. Should the prosecution of the work be discontinued by the Contractor, he shall notify the Engineer at least twenty-four hours in advance of resuming operation. G.7.3. Limitation of Operations: The work shall be so conducted as to create a minimum amount of inconvenience to the public. At any time when, in the judgment of the Engineer, the Contractor has obstructed or closed or is carrying on operations on a greater portion of the street or public way than is necessary for the proper execution of the work, the Engineer may require the Contractor to finish the sections on which work is in progress before operations are started on any additional section. G.7.4. Time and Order of Completion: It is the meaning and intent of this contract, unless otherwise herein specifically provided, that the Contractor shall be allowed to prosecute his work at such time and seasons, in such order of precedence, and in such a manner as shall be most conducive to economy of construction; provided, however, that the order and the time of prosecution shall be such that the work shall be substantially completed as a whole and in part, in accordance with this contract, the plans and specifications, and within the time of completion designated in the proposal; provided, also, that when the Town is having other work done, either by contract or by its own force, the Engineer may direct the timing of the contract, so that conflict will be avoided and the construction of the various works being done for the Town shall be harmonized. The Contractor shall submit, at such times as may reasonably be requested by the Engineer, a schedule which shall show the order in which the Contractor will start the several parts of the work, and estimated dates of completion of the several parts. G.7.5. Extension of Time: Should the Contractor be delayed in the completion of the work by any act or neglect of the Town or Engineer, or any employee of either, or by other Contractor's employed by the Town, or by changes ordered in the work, or by strikes, lockouts, fires, and unusual delays by common carriers, or unavoidable cause or causes beyond the Contractor's control or by any cause which the Engineer shall decide justifies delay, then an extension of the time shall be allowed for completing the work, sufficient to compensate for the delay, the amount of the extension to be determined by the Engineer, provided, however that the Contractor shall give the Engineer prompt notice in writing of the cause of such delay. G.7.6. _Hindrances and Delays: No claims shall be made by the Contractor for damages resulting from hindrances or delays from any cause (except where the work is stopped by order of the Town) during the progress of any portion of the work embraced in this contract. In case said work shall be stopped by an act of the Town, then such expense as in the judgment of the Engineer, caused by such stoppage of said work shall be paid for by the Town to the Contractor. G-22 Once the work order is transmitted to the Contractor, the Contractor shall devote both manpower and equipment to the project on a continuous basis each and every workday in sufficient quantity to bring the project to completion without delay. The Town Engineer shall be the sole judge, with appeal only to the Board of Aldermen, of whether the Contractor has devoted both manpower and equipment to the project on a continuous basis to bring the project to completion. If the Engineer or his designee should determine the Contractor has failed to diligently prosecute the project and the Board of Aldermen does not reverse the decision of the Engineer or his designee, the Town Engineer may have the remaining work performed by another contractor and deduct whatever is paid to the substitute contractor from the Contractor's contract. Failure to comply with the contractual provisions of a Town of Westlake construction contract or failure to diligently pursue a project to completion shall be a basis for the Board of Aldermen rejecting a future bid from said Contractor. G.7.7. Failure to Complete on Time: The time of completion of the contract is of the essence. For each working day that any work shall remain uncompleted after the time specified in the proposal and contract, plus any authorized time extension granted in writing by the Town of Westlake, or as automatically increased by additional work or materials ordered after the contract is signed, the sum per day of 11500 of the amount of the contract (to an amount not to exceed $500.00 per day), unless otherwise specified in the special provisions, will be deducted from the moneys due the Contractor, not as a penalty but as liquidated damages. The sum of money thus deducted for such delay, failure or noncompletion is not to be considered as a penalty, but shall be deemed, taken and treated as reasonable liquidated damages, since it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to fix the actual damages. The Contractor shall also indemnify and hold the Town harmless including paying court costs and defense fees from any property damage claims resulting from restriction of access caused by the Contractor's negligent performance or undue delay. G.7.8. Suspension by Court Order: The Contractor shall suspend such part or parts of the work ordered by the court, and will not be entitled to additional compensation by virtue of such court order. Neither will he be liable to the Town in the event the work is suspended by court order. G.7.9. Temporary Suspensions: The Engineer shall have the authority to suspend the work wholly or in part for such period or periods as he may deem necessary due to unsuitable weather conditions as are considered unfavorable for the suitable prosecution of the work. If it should become necessary to stop the work for an indefinite period, the Contractor shall store all materials in such a manner that they will not obstruct or impede the public unnecessarily nor become damaged in any way and he shall take every precaution to prevent damage or deterioration. G.7.10. Abandonment by Contractor: In case the Contractor should abandon and fail or refuse to resume work within ten (10) days after written notification from the Town or the Engineer, when such orders are consistent with the Contract Document, then, and in that case, where a performance bond exists, the Surety on the bond shall be notified in writing and directed to complete the work, and a copy of said notice shall be delivered to the Contractor. G-23 After receiving said notice of abandonment, the Contractor shall not remove from the work any materials, equipment, tools, or supplies then on the job, but the same, together with any materials and equipment under contract for the work may be held for use on the work by the Town of Westlake, the Surety on the construction bond, or another contractor in completion of the work; and the Contractor shall not receive any rental or credit therefore (except when used in connection with Extra Work where credit shall be allowed as provided for under Article G.4.5., Extra Work), it being understood that the use of such equipment and materials will ultimately reduce the cost to complete the work and be reflected in the final settlement. 6.7.11. Termination of Contract: The contract will be considered fulfilled, save as provided in any maintenance stipulations, bond, or by law, when all the work has been completed, the final inspection made by the Engineer, and final acceptance and final payment made by the Town. Section G.8. - Measurement and Payment G.8.1. Quantities and Measurement: No extra or customary measurements of any kind will be allowed, but the actual measured and/or computed length, area, solid contents number and weight only shall be considered, unless otherwise specifically provided. G.8.2. Estimated Quantities: This agreement, including the specifications, plans, and estimates, is intended to show clearly all work to be done and material to be furnished hereunder. Where the estimated quantities are shown for the various classes of work to be done and material to be furnished under this contract, they are approximate and are to be used only as a basis for estimating the probable cost of the work and for comparing the proposals offered for the work. It is understood and agreed that the actual amount of work to be done and materials to be furnished under this contract may differ somewhat from these estimates, and that where the basis for payment under this contract is the unit price method, payment shall be for the actual amount of such work done and the material furnished. Where payment is based on the unit price method, the Contractor agrees that he will make no claim for damages, anticipated profits or otherwise on account of any differences which may be found between the quantities of work actually done, the material actually furnished under this contract and the estimated quantities contemplated and contained in the proposal; provided, however, that in the case the actual quantity of any major item should become as much as 25% less than the estimated or contemplated quantity for such items, then either party to this Agreement, upon demand, shall be entitled to a revised consideration upon the portion of the work above or below 25% of the estimated quantity. A "Major Item" shall be construed to be an individual bid item incurred in the proposal that has a total cost equal to or greater then five (5) percent of the total contract cost, computed on the basis of the proposal quantities and the contract unit prices. Any revised consideration is to be determined by agreement, between the parties otherwise by the terms of this Agreement, as provided under "Extra Work" Article G.4.5. G.8.3. Partial Payment: On or before the 15k day of each month the Contractor shall submit a Pay Request showing as completely as practicable the total value to the work done by the Contractor up to and including the 25th day of the preceding month; said Pay Request shall also include the value of all sound materials delivered on the site of the work that are to be fabricated into the work, providing the Contractor can produce a paid receipt for the materials. G-24 The Town shall then pay the Contractor on or before the 30th day of the current month the total amount of the Pay Request, less five percent (5%) of the amount thereof for contracts with a total contract price of four hundred thousand ($400,000.00) dollars or more, less ten percent (10%) for contracts with a total contract price of less than four hundred thousand ($400,000.00) dollars but greater than or equal to ten thousand ($10,000.00) dollars, and in contracts for less than ten thousand ($10,000.00) dollars the retainage shall be fifteen percent (15%), which five percent (5%), ten percent (10%) or fifteen percent (15%) shall be retained until final payment, and further less all previous payments and all further sums that may be retained by the Town under the terms of this Agreement. It is understood, however, that in case the whole work be near to completion and some unexpected and unusual delay occurs due to no fault or neglect on the part of the Contractor, the Town may, upon written recommendation of the Engineer, pay a reasonable and equitable portion of the retained percentage to the Contractor; or the Contractor at the Town's option, may be relieved of the obligation for fully completing the work, and thereupon, the Contractor shall receive payment of the balance due him under the work contract subject only to the conditions stated under "Final Payment." G.8.4. Final Completion and Acceptance: Within five (5) days after the Contractor has given the Engineer written notice that the work has been completed, or substantially completed, the Engineer and the Town shall inspect the work and within said time, if the work be found to be completed or substantially completed in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Engineer shall issue to the Town and the Contractor his Certificate of Completion, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the Town within ten (10) days to issue a Certificate of Acceptance of the work to the Contractor. G.8.5. Final Payment: Upon the issuance of the Certification of Completion, the Engineer, shall proceed to make final measurements and prepare final statement of the value of all work performed and materials furnished under the terms of the Agreement and shall certify same to the Town, who shall pay to the Contractor within thirty (30) days after the date of the Certificate of Completion, the balance due the Contractor under the terms of this Agreement, provided he has fully performed contractual obligations under the terms of this contract; and said payment shall become due in any event upon said performance by the Contractor. Neither the Certificate of Acceptance nor the final payment, nor any provisions in the Contract Documents, shall relieve the Contractor of the obligation for the fulfillment of any warranty, which may be required in the Special Conditions of the specifications. G.8.6. Payments Withheld: The Town may, on account of subsequently discovered evidence, withhold or nullify the whole or part of any certificate to such extent as may be necessary to protect himself from loss on account of: (a) Defective work not remedied (b) Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of claims (c) Failure of the Contractor to make payments properly to subcontractors or for material or labor (d) Damage to another contractor G-25 When the above grounds are removed or the Contractor provides a Surety Bond satisfactorily to the Town, which will protect the Town in the amount withheld, payment shall be made for amount withheld because of them. G.8.7. Delayed Payments: Should the Town fail to make payment to the Contractor of the sum named in any partial or final statement when payment is due, or should the Engineer fail to issue any statement on or before the date above provided, then the Town shall pay to the Contractor, in addition to the sum shown as due by such statement, interest thereon at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum, unless otherwise specified, from date due until fully paid, which shall fully liquidate any injury to the Contractor growing out of such delay in payment not promptly made, as provided under "Partial Payment," and any time thereafter treat the contract as abandoned by the Town and recover compensation, unless such payments were withheld in accordance with the provisions of "Payments Withheld." G.8.8. Time FilingC!aims: It is further agreed by both parties hereto that all questions of dispute or adjustment presented by the Contractor shall be in writing and filed with the Engineer within thirty (30) days after the Engineer has given any directions, orders or instructions to which the Contractor so desires to take exception.
