shall be submitted with the Form of Bid or Proposal. Failure to do so shall be grounds for the bid
being rejected if subcontracting is proposed by the prime contractor.
10. MBE/WBE CONTRACT COMPLIANCE PROGRAM
PURPOSE
The purpose of the Contract Compliance Program (hereinafter called Program) is to act as an
impetus for increasing the participation of minority and women disadvantaged business enterprise
(MBE/WBE) in City awarded construction contracts.
The Program does not propose to eliminate any bonafide contractor or subcontractor from bidding
on City contracts, but it will hopefully serve as a needed stimulus to help local MBE/WBE's grow and
eventually become mainstream contractors and subcontractors.
This Contract Compliance Program does not propose to include any set-aside or quotas, but only
flexible goals where "good-faith efforts" are required by the contractor to use MBE/WBE
subcontractors.
This Program shall not eliminate the need for contractors to continue their"good-faith efforts" in using
MBE/WBE subcontractors on City contracts estimated at less than $50,000.
The City of Waterloo will make every effort to reduce in-house construction and maintenance work
that would be more cost effectively performed by the private sector and, thus, would allow additional
bidding opportunities for MBE/WBE firms.
The City Contract Compliance Officer shall be advised of all City of Waterloo awarded construction
contracts.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS Page 3 of 9
DEFINITIONS
Goals:
A flexible numerically expressed objective which contractors are required to make "good-faith
efforts." The key to the requirement is to make documented efforts. Goals are neither set-a-sides
nor a device to achieve proportional representation or equal results. Numerical goals do not create
set-a-sides for specific groups, nor are they designed to achieve proportional representation or
equal results. Rather, the goal-setting process in affirmative action planning is used to target and
measure the effectiveness of affirmative action efforts to eradicate and prevent discrimination.
Quota:
A flat numerical requirement that the contractor is required to meet in order to obtain the benefit or
be in compliance. The numerical goal component of affirmative action programs is not designed to
be, nor may it properly or lawfully be interpreted as, permitting unlawful preferential treatment and
quotas with respect to persons of any race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. The regulations
at 41 CFR 60-2.12(a), 60-2.15 and 60-2.30, specifically prohibit discrimination and the use of goals
as quotas. (U.S. Department of Labor)
Set-Aside:
An arrangement in which a particular contract is reserved for competition solely among minority
and women business enterprises.
Contractor:
As used in this document means contractor, subcontractor, supplier, vendor, and professional
service provider.
Minority Business Enterprise (MBE)
Any business, which is at least 51%, owned by one or more minorities and whose management
and daily business operations are controlled by one or more such individuals and is on the current
State Unified Certification List, or were listed on the City of Waterloo Certified MBE/WBE
Contractors list.
Women Business Enterprise (WBE):
Any business which is at least 51% owned by one or more women and whose management and
daily business operations are controlled by one or more such individuals and is on the current
State Unified Certification List, or were listed on the City of Waterloo Certified MBE/WBE
Contractors list as of July 1, 2002
Minority:
Any person or persons who are considered as socially and economically disadvantaged because
of their identity as a group member without regard to their individual qualities. The groups include:
Black American, Hispanic American, Native Americans, Eskimos, Aleuts, and Asian-Pacific
Americans. 13 C.F.R. 124-1.1(c)(3)(ii)(1 983).
Lowest Responsible Bidder:
Bidder who has offered the lowest bid and who has exhibited skill relative to the type of work bid
on, judgment, financial responsibility, and evidence of working with the Affirmative Action
Employment Program and the Contract Compliance Program.
Broker.
One buying or selling for others on commission or other fee basis without maintaining a warehouse
or other similar inventory storage facility.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS Page 4 of 9
Good Faith Efforts:
The successful bidder shall be selected on the basis of having submitted the lowest responsible
bid. The obligation of the bidder is to make good faith efforts. The bidder can demonstrate that it
has done so by the following:
1. The Prime Contractor met the project goal - No Action necessary
2. If the Prime Contractor failed to meet the goal, they must submit documentation of good faith
efforts.
CONTRACT COMPLIANCE PROGRAM SUBCONTRACTING
The program proposes numerical projections or goals regarding utilization of Minority Business
Enterprise (MBE) and Women Business Enterprise (WBE) as subcontractors in the performance of
contracts awarded by the City of Waterloo, Iowa.
A goal of at least 10% for MBE participation on all City funded construction projects that are
estimated at $50,000 or more and projects under$50,000 where applicable at the Contract
Compliance Officer's discretion. There is at least 2% WBE goal on City funded projects. Any
project which is funded solely or in part with Federal funds shall follow the respective agencies
contract compliance program and goals. Any project which is funded solely or in part with State
funds shall follow the respective agencies contract compliance program and goals. The City of
Waterloo Contract Compliance Program is for City awarded construction contracts only. The prime
contractor shall make "good-faith efforts" to meet the Contract Compliance MBE/WBE goals. The
MBE/WBE subcontracts must provide the prime contractor a reasonably competitive price for the
service being rendered or the contractor is not required to accept the bid.
Administrative Reconsideration:
As part of this reconsideration, the bidder will have the opportunity to provide written
documentation or arguments concerning the issue of whether they made adequate good faith
efforts to meet the goals. The bidder will have the opportunity to meet in person with the City of
Waterloo's Administrative Reconsideration Committee to discuss the issue of whether they made
adequate good faith efforts. The Administrative Reconsideration Committee will forward a written
decision on reconsideration to the Mayor and City Council, explaining the basis for finding that the
bidder did or did not meet the goal or make adequate good faith efforts to do so.
Documentation required will include but is not limited to the following:
* Making portions of the work available for MBE/WBE subcontracting
* Evidence of negotiating with MBE/WBE firms
* MBE/WBE quotes obtained and non-MBE/WBE quotes used
* Reasons agreements were not reached
* Follow-up after initial solicitations
* Efforts to assist in obtaining equipment, supplies and materials (at competitive prices), bonding,
lines of credit, insurance, etc.
* Evidence of past compliance or non-compliance by same contractor
The Contract Compliance Officer will determine the weight to be given to each item listed above
(supported by appropriate documentation) based on overall program goals.

within two (2) business days forward the complete list of MBE/WBE bidders who submitted
a Letter of Intent to Bid to prime contractors.
Prime Contractors
In order to be in compliance with the guidelines of this program, the prime contractor must show
good-faith efforts in following the MBE/WBE Contract Compliance Program. Good-faith efforts
include, but are not limited to, the following:
A. Prime contractors shall send solicitation letters (Form CCO-3) to appropriate MBE/WBE
(those certified in directory prepared by City Contract Compliance Officer) at least seven (7)
working days prior to bid date. Letters should identify specific items to be subcontracted. A
minimum of three (3) disadvantaged business contacts must be made and documented, if
there are at least three disadvantaged businesses offering services in the area to be
subcontracted (See City of Waterloo MBE/WBE Certification List). If less than three (3) are
offering the services to be subcontracted, then a contact is required for any that are listed
as providing that service. If the Prime Contractor submits a MBE/WBE contact not on the
City's MBE/WBE list, attach a copy of the MBE/WBE/DBE Certifications from another
government agency.
B. If a prime contract bidder is unable to identify MBE/WBE firms to perform portions of the
work, the City Contract Compliance Officer should be contacted for assistance immediately.
C. Prime contract bidders may solicit MBE/WBE proposals by telephone or personal
interviews, but all such contacts shall be confirmed by Certified Mail, or subcontract bid
request forms (Form CCO-2).
D. If any MBE/WBE business submitting bids is not selected for subcontract award,
documentation must accompany the "MBE/WBE Business Enterprise Pre-Bid Contact
Information Form" (Form CCO-4 and CCO-4A) on why the MBE/WBE was not selected.
These reasons could include:
a. Not low bid. Copies of the competing bids may be required for verification.
b. MBE/WBE did not bid, withdrew bid or non-responsive.
c. Documentation of other business-related reason for not selecting the MBE/WBE
business for a subcontract.
d. Prime contractor self performs work.
e. Any other reason relied on by prime.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS Page 6 of 9
The Contract Compliance Officer will determine the weight to be given to each item listed above
(supported by appropriate documentation) based on overall program goals.
/L MBE/WBE Firms
A. MBE/WBE firms shall be certified by the Iowa Department of Transportation as owners and
controllers of their respective businesses, or were listed on the City of Waterloo Certified
MBE/WBE Contractors list as of July 1, 2002.
B. MBE/WBE firms must perform the work on the project; they cannot act as a broker by
subcontracting the work out to others.
C. Each MBE/WBE firm planning to submit quotes on construction projects with goals, shall
submit a Letter of Intent to Bid (Form CCO-5) to the City Contract Compliance Officer seven
(7) working days prior to bid opening, listing specific items which the MBE/WBE firm is
interested in bidding.
If sufficient Letters of Intent to Bid are not received by the City Contract Compliance Officer
seven (7) working days prior to bid opening, goals on subject project will be reduced
accordingly. Agreements between the bidder/proposer and a MBE/WBE in which the
MBE/WBE promises not to provide subcontracting quotations to other bidders/proposers
are prohibited.
NON-COMPLIANCE OF CONTRACTORS
A. Noncompliance exists when the contractor's actions are not consistent with the
requirements of the Contract Compliance Program in the areas of employment and
subcontracting.
B. A bidder's failure to show good-faith efforts to meet project goals or a failure to use certified
MBE/WBE firms may be grounds for finding its bid not responsible.
C. The Contract Compliance Officer shall submit to City Council his/her recommendation on
any non-compliant contract in writing.
NOTICE TO PROCEED
Notice to proceed on any project with goals will not be issued until City Contract Compliance Officer
determines the lowest responsible bidder has used good-faith efforts to comply with this Compliance
Program and the bid was responsive.
CONCLUSION
This program repeals or revises all sections of previous Waterloo Contract Compliance Programs.
11. EMPLOYMENT AND BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY
To the greatest extent feasible, suppliers, subcontractors, and low income workers owning businesses or
living in the Waterloo area must be given priority in supplying materials, bidding for subcontract work, or
applying for employment by the contractor on this project. Opportunities for training and for employment
arising in connection with this project, shall to the greatest extent feasible be made available to lower income
persons residing in the project area. The contract area is the City of Waterloo.
The City of Waterloo will require the contractor to document his efforts in securing lower income workers
living in the project area and in purchasing supplies from, and awarding subcontracts to, businesses owned
by persons residing in the project area.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS Page 7 of 9
12. STATEMENT OF BIDDER'S QUALIFICATIONS
Each bidder shall, upon request of the City of Waterloo, Iowa, submit on the form furnished for that purpose
(a copy of which is included in the contract documents), a statement of bidder's qualifications, his experience
record in constructing the type of improvements embraced, and his organization and equipment available
for the work contemplated; and, when specifically requested, a detailed financial statement. The City of
Waterloo, Iowa, shall have the right to take such steps as it deems necessary to determine the ability of the
bidder to perform his obligations under the contract, and the bidder shall furnish the City of Waterloo, Iowa,
all such information and data for this purpose as it may request. The right is reserved to reject any bid where
an investigation of the available evidence or information does not satisfy the City of Waterloo, Iowa, that the
bidder is qualified to carry out properly the terms of the contract.
13. AWARD OF CONTRACT
a. Award of contract will be made to that responsive and responsible bidder whose bid, conforming to
the Specifications, is most advantageous to the City of Waterloo; price and other factors considered.
The intention is to award the contract at the time of opening bids, but the right is reserved to postpone
such action for a reasonable time, not exceeding thirty (30) days.
b. The City Council may, when in its interest, reject any or all bids or waive any informality in bids
received.
C. The bidder shall submit bids on all the items listed in the proposal and shall state the unit bid price
in words in the blank spaces provided beneath the item description. Should there be any discrepancy
between the unit bid price in words and listed numeral unit bid price, the City of Waterloo shall
consider the unit bid price in words as being the valid unit bid price. A computer-generated
spreadsheet as herein provided shall also be acceptable. Proposals requiring mathematical
computations to determine unit prices or totals will be rejected. A contract will be awarded to the
qualified bidder submitting the lowest total bid, or for the BASE BID plus ALTERNATE(S), as
applicable, chosen by the City as indicated in the NOTICE TO BIDDERS.
d. When a contract for a public improvement is to be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible
bidder, a resident bidder shall be allowed a preference as against a nonresident bidder from a state
or foreign country if that state or foreign country gives or requires any preference to bidders from that
state or foreign country, including but not limited to any preference to bidders, the imposition of any
type of labor force preference, or any other form of preferential treatment to bidders or laborers from
that state or foreign country. The preference allowed shall be equal to the preference given or
required by the state or foreign country in which the nonresident bidder is a resident. In the instance
of a resident labor force preference, a nonresident bidder shall apply the same resident labor force
preference to a public improvement in this state as would be required in the construction of a public
improvement by the state or foreign country in which the nonresident bidder is a resident.
14. EXECUTION OF AGREEMENT, BONDS, AND CERTIFICATE OF INSURANCE
a. Subsequent to the award and within ten (10) days after the prescribed forms are presented for
signature, the successful bidder shall execute and deliver to the City of Waterloo, Iowa, an
agreement in the form included in the contract documents in such number of copies as the City of
Waterloo, Iowa, may require.
b. Having satisfied all conditions of award as set forth elsewhere in these documents, the successful
bidder shall, within the period specified in paragraph "a" above, furnish a surety bond and a payment
bond in a penal sum not less than the amount of the contract as awarded, as security for the faithful
performance of the contract and terms and conditions therein contained and shall guarantee the
prompt payment of all persons, firms, or corporations to whom the contractor may become legally
INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS Page 8 of 9
indebted for labor, materials, tools, equipment, or services of any nature including utility and
transportation services, employed or used by him in performing the work. The bonds shall protect
and save harmless the City from claims and damages of any kind caused by the operations of the
contractor and shall also guarantee the maintenance of the contract improvements for the period
stated in the Notice of Hearing from and after completion of said improvements and their acceptance
by the City. Such bonds shall be in the same form as that included in the contract documents and
shall bear the same date as, or a date subsequent to that of the agreement. The current Power of
Attorney for the person who signs for any surety company shall be attached to such bonds.
C. The successful bidder shall, within the period specified in paragraph "a" above, furnish a certificate
of insurance for approval in amounts of not less than the amounts specified in the General
Specifications for Construction, Section F. No. 4 "Liability Insurance" Pages 14 to 15 of 18 Pages.
The certificate of insurance shall be furnished in such number of copies as the City of Waterloo may
require. The City of Waterloo shall be named as an "Additional Insured." The contractor shall
similarly submit his subcontractor's certificates of insurance in the amounts for approval before each
commences work. The contractor shall carry or require that there be Workmen's Compensation
Insurance for all his employees and those of his subcontractors engaged in work at the site, in

d. The failure of the successful bidder to execute such agreement and to supply the required bond or
bonds within ten (10) days after the prescribed forms are presented for signature, or within such
extended period as the City of Waterloo, Iowa, may grant, based upon reasons determined sufficient
by the City of Waterloo, Iowa, may either award the contract to the next lowest bidder or re-advertise
for bids, and may charge against the bidder
the difference between the amount of the bid an the amount for which a contract for the work is
subsequently executed, irrespective of whether the amount thus due exceeds the amount of the bid
guaranty. If a more favorable bid is received by re-advertising, the defaulting bidder shall have no
claim against the City of Waterloo, Iowa, for a refund.

minorities your company can reasonably expect to hire in 20 . Note, that none of the goals are
rigid or inflexible. They are targets that your company calculates as reasonably attainable. This will

SPECIAL PROVISIONS
MISCELLANEOUS
1. EXISTING PAVEMENT SECTIONS
Existing pavement sections are being included for the Contractor's information in the plans. This information
has been based on the 2002 Pavement Maintenance Program conducted at the Waterloo Regional Airport.
This information shall not constitute a basis for additional compensation if conditions are found to be different
in other areas.
2. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES; PROGRESSIVE WORK & LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
Time is an essential element of this contract. It is important that the work be diligently pursued to completion.
If the work is not completed within the specified contract period, plus authorized extensions, the Contractor
shall pay to the City Liquidated Damages in the amount of $1,000.00 per day, for each day, as further
described herein, in excess of the authorized time.
Days beyond the specified completion date for which Liquidated Damages will be charged will be working
days that the Contractor does or could have worked from Monday through Saturday. Sundays will be
counted only if work is performed. Partial working days will be considered as a full working day. Days not
chargeable for Liquidated Damages will include rain days, Sundays, if no work is done, and legal holidays.
Working days will cease to be charged when only punch list items remain to be completed. Punch list items
do not include contract bid items or approved change/extra work orders.
When the Contractor believes the project to be substantially completed, a written notice stating the same
shall be submitted to the Engineer and a request made for a Punch List. If the work under the Contract
extends beyond the normal construction season for such work, the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer
in writing a request that working days counted toward the project be suspended until work is resumed the
following construction season.
This amount is not construed as a penalty. These damages are for the cost to the City of providing the
required additional inspection, engineering and contract administration.
Progressive Work: After construction is started, meaningful progressive work shall continue each working
day that is not effected by adverse weather or delays completely out of the control of the contractor.
Liquidated damages in the amount of $1,000.00 per day shall be assessed for non-compliance with this
requirement.

if called for by all. The intention of the documents is to include all labor, materials,
equipment, and transportation necessary for the proper execution of the work. Materials
or work described in words which, so applied, have a well-known technical or trade
meaning shall be held to refer to such recognized standard.
2. DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS. Unless otherwise provided in the
contract documents, the engineer shall furnish to the Contractor, free of charge, all
copies of drawings and specifications reasonably necessary for the execution of the
work.

the Contractor has, by careful examination, satisfied himself as to the nature, character
and location of the work, the conformance to the ground, the character, quality, and
quantity of the materials to be encountered, the character of the equipment and facilities
needed preliminary to and during the prosecution of the work, the general and local
conditions, and all other matters which can, in any way, affect the work under this
contract. No verbal agreement or conversation with any officer, agent, or employee of
the City, either before or
after the execution of the Contract, shall affect or modify any of the terms or obligations
herein contained.
4. REPORTING ERRORS AND DISCREPANCIES. If the Contractor, in the
course of the work, finds any discrepancies between the plans and the physical
conditions of the locality, or any errors of omission in plans or in the layout as given by
said stakes and instructions, it shall be his duty to inform the Engineer immediately, in
writing, and the Engineer shall promptly correct the same.
5. ALTERATION OR CORRECTION OF PLANS. The plans are made up
from surveys that are presumably correct and represent the foreseen construction
requirements. Any modification of the plans which may be required by the exigencies of
the construction or any corrections made necessary because of errors in the original
surveys, will be made by the Engineer. Should corrections or modifications of the plans
or specifications require a different quality or class of work than that upon which the unit
prices in the Proposal are based, or if the modifications or corrections are required in
parts of the work partially completed and such modifications result in an increased cost
to the Contractor, the amount to be paid for work resulting from such changes shall be
agreed upon in writing at the time the changes are ordered and before the work is begun
by the Contractor. No allowance will be made for anticipated profits on work not
performed.
6. CHANGES IN THE WORK. The City, without invalidating the contract,
may order extra work or make changes by altering, adding to, or deducting from the
work, the contract sum being adjusted by agreement or arbitration before such changed
work is undertaken. All such work shall be executed under the conditions of the original
contract, except that any claim for extension of time caused thereby shall be adjusted at
the time of ordering such change.
GENERAL SPECS Page 3 of 16
7. INCREASED OR DECREASED QUANTITIES. The right is reserved
without impairing the contract, to order the performance of such work of a class not
contemplated in the Proposal or to increase or decrease the quantities as may be
considered necessary to complete fully and satisfactorily the work included in the
contract. However, when the work is completed without change in the plans, and the
measured quantity of any item of work varies by more than twenty percent (20%) from
the estimated quantity specified in the contract, an adjustment in price may be made for
such item of work by agreement between the Engineer and the Contractor, subject to the
approval of the City Council. Either party to the contract may request such an
adjustment.
8. LANDS AND RIGHT OF WAY. The City shall provide the lands upon
which the work under this contract is to be done, except that the Contractor shall provide
land required for the erection of temporary construction facilities and storage of his

SECTION C - CONTROL OF MATERIALS AND WORK
1. SUPERVISION AND INSPECTION. The Engineer shall have supervision
of the construction provided for in this Contract and shall decide any and all questions
which may arise as to the quality and acceptability of materials furnished, work

prosecution of the work.
The Engineer and his representatives shall, at all times, have access to the work
wherever it is in preparation of progress, and the Contractor shall provide proper
facilities for such access and for inspection.
If the specifications, the Engineer's instructions, law ordinances, or any public
authority require any work and/or materials to be especially tested or approved, the
Contractor shall give the Engineer timely notice of readiness for inspection. If the
inspection is to be made by authority other than the Engineer, the Contractor shall notify
the engineer of the date fixed for inspection. Inspections by the Engineer will be
promptly made and, where practicable, at the source of supply. If any work should be
covered up without the approval or consent of the Engineer, it must, if required by the
Engineer, be uncovered for examination at the Contractor's expense.
Re-examination of questioned work may be ordered by the Engineer, and, if so
ordered, the work must be uncovered by the Contractor. If such work be found in
accordance with the Contract, the City shall pay the cost of re-examination and
replacement. If such work be found not in accordance with the Contract, the Contractor
shall pay such cost unless he shall show that the defect in the work was caused by
another Contractor, and, in that event, the City shall pay the cost.
2. AUTHORITIES AND DUTIES OF INSPECTORS. Inspectors may be
stationed on the work to report to the Engineer as to the progress of the work and the
manner in which it is being performed; also, to report whenever it appears that materials
furnished and work performed by the Contractor fail to fulfill the requirements of the
specifications and Contract, and to direct the attention of the Contractor to such failure or
infringement; but such inspection shall not relieve the Contractor from any obligations to
furnish acceptable materials or to provide completed construction that is satisfactory in
every particular.
In case of any dispute arising between the Inspector and the Contractor as to
materials furnished or the manner of performing the work, the Inspector shall have the
authority to reject materials or suspend the work until the question at issue can be
referred to and decided by the Engineer. Inspectors are not authorized to revoke, alter,
GENERAL SPECS Page 5 of 16
enlarge, relax, or release any requirements of these specifications. The Inspector shall,
in no case, act as foreman or perform other duties for the Contractor, or interfere with
the management of the work by the latter.
3. STATUS OF THE ENGINEER. The Engineer shall have general
supervision and direction of the work. He has authority to stop the work whenever such
stoppage may be necessary to insure the proper execution of the Contract. He shall
also have authority to reject any work and/or materials which do not conform to the
specifications, to direct the application of forces to any portion of the work as, in his
judgment, is required, and to order the force increased or diminished, and to decide
questions which arise in the execution of the work.
4. ENGINEER'S DECISIONS. The Engineer shall, within a reasonable
time, make decisions on all claims of the Contractor and on all other matters relating to
the execution and progress of the work or the interpretation of the contract documents.
All such decisions of the Engineer shall be final except as to the element of time
and financial consideration involved, which, if no agreement in regard thereto is reached,
shall be subject to arbitration.
5. STAKES AND INSTRUCTIONS. The Contractor shall provide
reasonable and necessary opportunities and facilities for setting stakes and making
measurements. The Contractor shall not furnish stakes or men to set them. He shall
not proceed until he has received from the Engineer such stakes and instructions as
may be necessary to the progress of the work.
The Contractor shall carefully preserve bench marks, reference points, and
stakes, and in case of willful or careless destruction, he shall be charged with the
resulting extra expense and shall be responsible for any mistakes that may be caused,
by their loss or disturbance.
6. SUPERINTENDENCE. The Contractor shall keep on his work during its
progress a competent superintendent and any necessary assistants, all satisfactory to
the Engineer. The Superintendent shall not be changed except with the consent of the
Engineer, unless the Superintendent proves to be unsatisfactory to the Contractor and
ceases to be in his employ. The Superintendent shall represent the Contractor in his
absence, and all directions given to him shall be as binding as if given to the Contractor.
Important decisions shall be confirmed in writing to the Contractor. Other directions shall
be so confirmed on written request in each case.
The Contractor shall give efficient supervision to the work using his best skill and
attention. He shall carefully study and compare all drawings, specifications, and other
instructions, and shall report at once to the Engineer any error, inconsistency, or
omission which he may discover.
7. REMOVAL OF UNAUTHORIZED WORK. Work done without lines and
grade being give, work done beyond lines shown on the plans or as given, except as
herein provided, or any extra or additional work done without authority, will be
considered as unauthorized and at the expense of the Contractor and will not be paid for
under the provisions of the Contract. Work so done may be ordered removed and
replaced at the Contractor's expense.

contract and without expense to the City, and shall bear the expense of making good all
work of other Contractors destroyed or damaged by such removal or replacement.
If the Contractor does not remove such condemned work and materials within a
reasonable time, fixed by written notice, the City may remove them and may store the
material at the expense of the Contractor. If the Contractor does not pay the expense of
such removal within a reasonable time thereafter, the City may, upon ten (10) days'
written notice, sell such materials at auction or at private sale and shall account for the
net proceeds thereof, after deducting all the costs and expense that should have been
borne by the Contractor; or, if the net proceeds of such sale are insufficient to pay the
expenses of removal, the City may deduct the balance from any amounts due the
Contractor.
9. MATERIALS, EQUIPMENT, APPLIANCES, AND FACILITIES. Unless
otherwise stipulated, the Contractor shall provide and pay for all materials, labor, water,
tools, equipment, light, power, transportation, and other facilities necessary for the

appliance necessary for the construction or operation of the work, it is necessary to use
any material that is not fully specified in these specifications, it shall be of good quality
and shall meet with the approval of the Engineer.
Any appliance that is necessary for the construction or operation of the work and
is commonly recognized as a part of the work, shall be furnished by the Contractor as
part of the work, whether or not it is specifically called for in the plans and specifications,

samples of the material. These samples will be considered as representative and typical
of the material to be obtained from any particular source.
11. CHARACTER OF WORKMEN AND EQUIPMENT. The Contractor shall
employ competent and efficient workmen for every kind of work. Any person employed
on the work who shall refuse or neglect to obey the directions of the engineer or
Inspector, or who shall be deemed incompetent or disorderly, or who shall commit

when the Engineer so orders, and shall not be re-employed unless express permission
be given by the Engineer. The Contractor shall, at all times, enforce discipline and good
order among his employees.

prejudice to any other remedy he may have, make good such deficiencies and may
deduct the cost thereof from the payment then or thereafter due the Contractor,
provided, however, that the Engineer shall approve both such action and the amount
charged to the Contractor.
SECTION D - PROCEDURE AND PROGRESS
1. ORDER OF COMPLETION - USE OF COMPLETED PORTIONS. The
Contractor shall complete any portion or portions of the work in such order or time as the
Engineer may require. The City shall have the right to take possession of an use
completed or partially completed portion of the work at any time, but such taking
possession and use shall not be deemed an acceptance of work so taken or used, or
any part thereof. If such prior use increases the cost of or delays the work, the
Contractor shall be entitled to such extra compensation or extension of time, or both, as
the Engineer may determine.
2. WEATHER. During stormy or inclement weather, all work shall be
suspended, except such as can be done in an acceptable manner. Permission to work
during freezing, stormy, or inclement weather shall in no way be construed as a release
of the Contractor's responsibility regarding the quality of the finished work at such time.
3. SUNDAYS AND LEGAL HOLIDAYS. Except for such work as may be
required to properly maintain or protect completed or partially completed construction or
to maintain lights and barricades, no work will be permitted on Sundays or legal holidays

the completion of the work by an act of neglect of the City, or its employees; or by any
other Contractor employed by the City; or by changes ordered in the work; or by strikes,
lockouts, fire, unusual delays in transportation, unavoidable casualties, or any cause
beyond the Contractor's control; or by delay authorized by the Engineer pending
arbitration; or by any cause which the Engineer shall decide justifies the delay, then the
time of completion shall be extended for such reasonable time as the Engineer may
decide will compensate for such delay.
No such extension shall be made for delay occurring more than thirty (30) days
before claim therefor is made in writing to the Engineer. In the case of a continuing
cause of delay, only one claim is necessary.
This article does not exclude the recovery of damages for delay by either party
under provisions in the contract documents.
5. TEMPORARY SUSPENSION OF WORK. The Engineer shall have
authority to suspend the work, wholly or in part, for such period or periods of time as he
GENERAL SPECS Page 8 of 16
may deem necessary, due to unsuitable weather or such other conditions as are
considered unfavorable for the suitable prosecution of the work, or for such time as is
necessary due to the failure to the Contractor to carry out orders given or to perform any
or all provisions of the Contract.
6. NOTICES - HOW SERVED. Any notice to be given by the City to the
Contractor under this contract shall be deemed to be served if the same be delivered to

(3/8) of the work shall be completed; at the expiration of three-fourths (3/4) of the
contract period, the work shall be three-fourths (3/4) completed, and the whole work
shall be completed at the expiration of the contract period.
If, at any time the above schedule is not being maintained, the Council may give
written notice to the Contractor and his sureties that the specifications are not being
complied with. Such notice shall state what action on the part of the Contractor is
required to bring the work within the requirements of the specifications. If the Contractor
fails, within ten (10) days, to proceed as directed in the said notice, then the Council
shall have authority to annul this contract without process or action at law and take over
the prosecution and completion of the work, as provided under the article covering City's
right to terminate contract.
8. CITY'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE CONTRACT. If the Contractor should
be adjudged a bankrupt; or if he should make a general assignment for the benefit of this
creditor; or if a Receiver should be appointed on account of his insolvency; or if he
should persistently or repeatedly refuse or should fail, except in cases for which
extension of time is provided, to supply enough skilled workmen or proper materials; or if
he should fail to make prompt payment to Subcontractors or for materials or labor; or if

162-3.1 General.The fence shall be constructed in accordance with the details on the plans and as specified here
using new materials.All work shall be performed in a workmanlike manner satisfactory to the RPR. The Contractor
shall layout the fence line based on the plans. The Contractor shall span the opening below the fence with barbed
wire at all locations where it is not practical to conform the fence to the general contour of the ground surface
because of natural or manmade features such as drainage ditches. The new fence shall be permanently tied to the
terminals of existing fences as shown on the plans.The Contractor shall stake down the woven wire fence at several
points between posts as shown on the plans.
The Contractor shall arrange the work so that construction of the new fence will immediately follow the removal of
existing fences.The length of unfenced section at any time shall not exceed 300 feet(90 m). The work shall progress
in this manner and at the close of the working day the newly constructed fence shall be tied to the existing fence.
162-3.2 Clearing fence line. Clearing shall consist of the removal of all stumps, brush, rocks,trees, or other
obstructions that will interfere with proper construction of the fence within 5 feet(1.5 meters)on the exterior of the
fence adjacent to the property line and 10 feet(3.0 meters)on the interior side of the fence centerline ora minimum
width of 10 feet(1.5 meters) on either side of the fence centerline when not on the property line before starting fence
operations. Stumps within the cleared area of the fence shall be grubbed or excavated.The bottom of the fence shall
be placed a uniform distance above ground, as specified in the plans.When shown on the plans or as directed by the
RPR,the existing fences which interfere with the new fence location shall be removed by the Contractor as a part of
the construction work unless such removal is listed as a separate item in the bid schedule.All holes remaining after
post and stump removal shall be refilled with suitable soil, gravel, or other suitable material and compacted with
tampers.
The cost of removing and disposing of the material shall not constitute a pay item and shall be considered incidental
to fence construction.162-3.3 Installing posts.All posts shall be set in concrete at the required dimension and depth
and at the spacing shown on the plans.
The posts holes shall be in proper alignment so that there is a minimum of 3 inches(75 mm)of
concrete on all sides of the posts.
The concrete shall be thoroughly compacted around the posts by tamping or vibrating and shall have a smooth finish
slightly higher than the ground and sloped to drain away from the posts.All posts shall be set plumb and to the
required grade and alignment. No materials shall be installed on the posts, nor shall the posts be disturbed in any
manner within seven (7)days after the individual post footing is completed.
Should rock be encountered at a depth less than the planned footing depth, a hole 2 inches(50 mm)larger than the
greatest dimension of the posts shall be drilled to a depth of 12 inches (300 mm).After the posts are set,the
remainder of the drilled hole shall be filled with grout, composed of one part Portland cement and two parts mortar
sand.Any remaining space above the rock shall be filled with concrete in the manner described above.

contour of the ground,with the bottom of the fence fabric no less than one inch (25 mm)or more than 4 inches (100
mm)from the ground surface. Grading shall be performed where necessary to provide a neat appearance.
At locations of small natural swales or drainage ditches and where it is not practical to have the fence conform to the
general contour of the ground surface, longer posts may be used and multiple strands of barbed wire stretched to
span the opening below the fence. The vertical clearance between strands of barbed wire shall be 6 inches(150 mm)
or less.
162-3.7 Electrical grounds. Electrical grounds shall be constructed where a power line passes over the fence and at
500 feet(150 m)intervals.The ground shall be installed directly below the point of crossing.The ground shall be
accomplished with a copper clad rod 8 feet(2.4 m)long and a minimum of 5/8 inches (16 mm)in diameter driven
vertically until the top is 6 inches(150 mm)below the ground surface.A No. 6 solid copper conductor shall be
clamped to the rod and to the fence in such a manner that each element of the fence is grounded. Installation of
