DATE: January 17, 2023
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Paul Cranmer, Public Works Services Director
By: Dave McVey, Interim General Services Superintendent
SUBJECT: CONTRACT WITH CARRIER CORPORATION FOR THE FIRE STATION
107 HVAC EQUIPMENT AND ZONE REPLACEMENT PROJECT IN THE
AMOUNT OF $37,176
CEQA: Not a Project
Recommendation: Approve
SUMMARY
The Fiscal Year 2017-18 Capital Improvement Plan provided for the replacement of the
existing HVAC equipment and installation of new zone controls for Fire Station 107. For
various reasons, this project was placed on hold. The HVAC equipment at Fire Station
107 is over 15 years old and needs replacement. Utilizing Sourcewell, a national
cooperative purchasing program, enables the City to streamline the procurement process
for construction services and receive the best price possible.
It is recommended that the City Council approve, authorize, and direct the City Manager
to execute a Contract with Carrier Corporation for the Fire Station 107 HVAC Equipment
and Zone Replacement Project in the amount of $37,176.
BACKGROUND
The Fiscal Year 2017-18 Capital Improvement Plan provided for the replacement of the
existing HVAC equipment and installation of new zone controls for Fire Station 107.
Originally, this project was delayed to allow other higher importance projects to proceed
in a timely manner. Then, in order to keep staff and the public safe during the pandemic,
projects were reprioritized and this one was placed on hold in 2020.
The HVAC equipment at Fire Station 107 has exceeded its useful life and needs
replacement. The existing zones utilize an inefficient design that prevent effective cooling
and heating of the building. There are currently areas in the station that are either too cold
or too hot and are not adjustable through the thermostat to reach a comfortable setting.
To provide conditioned air in all areas of the building, a new split system condensing unit

will be installed. Also, as part of this project, new HVAC zone controls will be installed in
occupied areas of the facility. The new HVAC equipment and zoning system will be more
energy efficient and provide adjustable temperature control in occupied areas for Fire
personnel.
DISCUSSION
The project will include replacing the existing HVAC condenser with a new split system
condensing unit, furnace, and evaporator coil. New equipment will be installed in the
same locations and will be reconnected to existing duct work. New zone controllers with
sensors and bypass controllers will be installed into existing hardware. In addition, the
new HVAC equipment will be more energy efficient and will utilize an environmentally
friendly refrigerant to replace the existing R-22 refrigerant that is being phased out due to
its damaging effect on the environment.
The California Government Code authorizes public agencies to participate in cooperative
purchasing agreements such as those established by Sourcewell while remaining within
the City’s adopted rules and procedures for purchasing. By utilizing a cooperative
purchasing program, the City can streamline the procurement process for these services
at a lower cost than the traditional competitive bidding process. Sourcewell awarded a
contract to Carrier Corporation for a series of specialized HVAC related services. A copy
of the agreement between Sourcewell and Carrier Corporation is attached. The bidding
process and the contract with Carrier Corporation have been reviewed by the Public
Works Services Department and it has been determined to meet the City’s procurement
requirements. The City has previously contracted with Carrier Corporation and has been
satisfied with their service.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
The proposed action does not constitute a project under the California Environmental
Quality Act (“CEQA”), and it can be seen with certainty that it will have no impact on the
environment. Thus, this matter is exempt under CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds in the amount of $50,000 have been budgeted in the Fiscal Year 2017-18 Capital
Improvement Plan for the Fire Station 107 HVAC equipment and zone replacement
project. The total cost for the project is $37,176.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council determine that this action does not constitute a
project and is, therefore, exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act
(“CEQA”); and approve, authorize, and direct the City Manager to execute a Contract with

performance or nature of the Work shall not be paid for or accepted unless such change,
addition or deletion is approved in writing by a valid change order executed by the City. Should

circumstances are discovered or shall waive its right to request a change order due to such
circumstances. If the Parties cannot agree on any change in price required by such change in
the Work, the City may direct the Contractor to proceed with the performance of the change on
a time and materials basis.
3.2.2 Substitutions/“Or Equal”. Pursuant to Public Contract Code Section
3400(b), the City may make a finding that designates certain products, things, or services by
specific brand or trade name. Unless specifically designated in this Contract, whenever any
material, process, or article is indicated or specified by grade, patent, or proprietary name or by
name of manufacturer, such Specifications shall be deemed to be used for the purpose of
facilitating the description of the material, process or article desired and shall be deemed to be
followed by the words “or equal.”
Contractor may, unless otherwise stated, offer for substitution any material,
process or article which shall be substantially equal or better in every respect to that so
indicated or specified in this Contract. However, the City may have adopted certain uniform
standards for certain materials, processes and articles. Contractor shall submit requests,
together with substantiating data, for substitution of any “or equal” material, process or article no
later than thirty-five (35) days after award of the Contract. To facilitate the construction
schedule and sequencing, some requests may need to be submitted before thirty-five (35) days
after award of Contract. Provisions regarding submission of “or equal” requests shall not in any
way authorize an extension of time for performance of this Contract. If a proposed “or equal”
substitution request is rejected, Contractor shall be responsible for providing the specified
material, process or article. The burden of proof as to the equality of any material, process or
article shall rest with Contractor.
The City has the complete and sole discretion to determine if a material, process
or article is an “or equal” material, process or article that may be substituted. Data required to
substantiate requests for substitutions of an “or equal” material, process or article data shall
include a signed affidavit from Contractor stating that, and describing how, the substituted “or
24347.00006\9536520.5 3
equal” material, process or article is equivalent to that specified in every way except as listed on
the affidavit. Substantiating data shall include any and all illustrations, specifications, and other
relevant data including catalog information which describes the requested substituted “or equal”
material, process or article, and substantiates that it is an “or equal” to the material, process or
article. The substantiating data must also include information regarding the durability and
lifecycle cost of the requested substituted “or equal” material, process or article. Failure to
submit all the required substantiating data, including the signed affidavit, to the City in a timely
fashion will result in the rejection of the proposed substitution.
Contractor shall bear all of the City’s costs associated with the review of
substitution requests. Contractor shall be responsible for all costs related to a substituted “or
equal” material, process or article. Contractor is directed to the Special Conditions (if any) to
review any findings made pursuant to Public Contract Code section 3400.
3.3 Period of Performance and Liquidated Damages. Contractor shall perform and
complete all Work under this Contract within Sixty (60) CALENDAR days, beginning the
effective date of the Notice to Proceed (“Contract Time”). Contractor shall perform its Work in
strict accordance with any completion schedule, construction schedule or project milestones
developed by the City. Such schedules or milestones may be included as part of Exhibits “A” or
“B” attached hereto, or may be provided separately in writing to Contractor. Contractor agrees
that if such Work is not completed within the aforementioned Contract Time and/or pursuant to
any such completion schedule, construction schedule or project milestones developed pursuant
to provisions of the Contract, it is understood, acknowledged and agreed that the City will suffer
damage. Pursuant to Government Code Section 53069.85, Contractor shall pay to the City as
fixed and liquidated damages the sum of Seven Hundred Ninety Dollars and Nine Cents
($790.09) per day for each and every calendar day of delay beyond the Contract Time or
beyond any completion schedule, construction schedule or Project milestones established
pursuant to the Contract.

all Work under this Contract in a skillful and workmanlike manner, and consistent with the
standards generally recognized as being employed by professionals in the same discipline in
the State of California. Contractor represents and maintains that it is skilled in the professional
calling necessary to perform the Work. Contractor warrants that all employees and
subcontractors shall have sufficient skill and experience to perform the Work assigned to them.
Finally, Contractor represents that it, its employees and subcontractors have all licenses,
permits, qualifications and approvals of whatever nature that are legally required to perform the
Work, including any required business license, and that such licenses and approvals shall be
maintained throughout the term of this Contract. As provided for in the indemnification
provisions of this Contract, Contractor shall perform, at its own cost and expense and without
reimbursement from the City, any work necessary to correct errors or omissions which are
caused by Contractor’s failure to comply with the standard of care provided for herein. Any
employee who is determined by the City to be uncooperative, incompetent, a threat to the safety
of persons or the Work, or any employee who fails or refuses to perform the Work in a manner
acceptable to the City, shall be promptly removed from the Project by Contractor and shall not
be re-employed on the Work.
3.5 Control and Payment of Subordinates; Contractual Relationship. City retains
Contractor on an independent contractor basis and Contractor is not an employee of City. Any

wages, salaries, and other amounts due such personnel in connection with their performance
24347.00006\9536520.5 4
under this Contract and as required by law. Contractor shall be responsible for all reports and
obligations respecting such additional personnel, including, but not limited to: social security

THOUSAND, ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY-SIX DOLLARS AND NO CENTS ($37,176.00)
(“Total Contract Price”) provided that such amount shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to
the applicable terms of this Contract or written change orders approved and signed in advance
by the City.
3.7.2 Payment of Compensation. If the Work is scheduled for completion in
thirty (30) or less calendar days, City will arrange for payment of the Total Contract Price upon
completion and approval by City of the Work. If the Work is scheduled for completion in more
than thirty (30) calendar days, City will pay Contractor on a monthly basis as provided for
herein. On or before the fifth (5th) day of each month, Contractor shall submit to the City an
itemized application for payment in the format supplied by the City indicating the amount of
Work completed since commencement of the Work or since the last progress payment. These
applications shall be supported by evidence which is required by this Contract and such other
documentation as the City may require. The Contractor shall certify that the Work for which
payment is requested has been done and that the materials listed are stored where indicated.
Contractor may be required to furnish a detailed schedule of values upon request of the City
and in such detail and form as the City shall request, showing the quantities, unit prices,
overhead, profit, and all other expenses involved in order to provide a basis for determining the
amount of progress payments.
3.7.3 Prompt Payment. City shall review and pay all progress payment
requests in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 20104.50 of the California Public
Contract Code. However, no progress payments will be made for Work not completed in
accordance with this Contract. Contractor shall comply with all applicable laws, rules and
regulations relating to the proper payment of its employees, subcontractors, suppliers or others.
3.7.4 Contract Retentions. From each approved progress estimate, five percent
(5%) will be deducted and retained by the City, and the remainder will be paid to Contractor. All
Contract retention shall be released and paid to Contractor and subcontractors pursuant to
California Public Contract Code Section 7107.
3.7.5 Other Retentions. In addition to Contract retentions, the City may deduct
from each progress payment an amount necessary to protect City from loss because of: (1)
liquidated damages which have accrued as of the date of the application for payment; (2) any
sums expended by the City in performing any of Contractor’s obligations under the Contract
which Contractor has failed to perform or has performed inadequately; (3) defective Work not
remedied; (4) stop notices as allowed by state law; (5) reasonable doubt that the Work can be
24347.00006\9536520.5 5
completed for the unpaid balance of the Total Contract Price or within the scheduled completion
date; (6) unsatisfactory prosecution of the Work by Contractor; (7) unauthorized deviations from
the Contract; (8) failure of Contractor to maintain or submit on a timely basis proper and
sufficient documentation as required by the Contract or by City during the prosecution of the
Work; (9) erroneous or false estimates by Contractor of the value of the Work performed; (10)
any sums representing expenses, losses, or damages as determined by the City, incurred by
the City for which Contractor is liable under the Contract; and (11) any other sums which the
City is entitled to recover from Contractor under the terms of the Contract or pursuant to state
law, including Section 1727 of the California Labor Code. The failure by the City to deduct any
of these sums from a progress payment shall not constitute a waiver of the City’s right to such
sums.
3.7.6 Substitutions for Contract Retentions. In accordance with California
Public Contract Code Section 22300, the City will permit the substitution of securities for any
monies withheld by the City to ensure performance under the Contract. At the request and
expense of Contractor, securities equivalent to the amount withheld shall be deposited with the
City, or with a state or federally chartered bank in California as the escrow agent, and thereafter
the City shall then pay such monies to Contractor as they come due. Upon satisfactory
completion of the Contract, the securities shall be returned to Contractor. For purposes of this
Section and Section 22300 of the Public Contract Code, the term “satisfactory completion of the
contract” shall mean the time the City has issued written final acceptance of the Work and filed
a Notice of Completion as required by law and provisions of this Contract. Contractor shall be
the beneficial owner of any securities substituted for monies withheld and shall receive any
interest thereon. The escrow agreement used for the purposes of this Section shall be in the
form provided by the City.
3.7.7 Title to Work. As security for partial, progress, or other payments, title to
Work for which such payments are made shall pass to the City at the time of payment. To the
extent that title has not previously been vested in the City by reason of payments, full title shall
pass to the City at delivery of the Work at the destination and time specified in this Contract.
Such transferred title shall in each case be good, free and clear from any and all security
interests, liens, or other encumbrances. Contractor promises and agrees that it will not pledge,
hypothecate, or otherwise encumber the items in any manner that would result in any lien,
security interest, charge, or claim upon or against said items. Such transfer of title shall not
imply acceptance by the City, nor relieve Contractor from the responsibility to strictly comply
with the Contract, and shall not relieve Contractor of responsibility for any loss of or damage to
items.
3.7.8 Labor and Material Releases. Contractor shall furnish City with labor and
material releases from all subcontractors performing work on, or furnishing materials for, the
Work governed by this Contract prior to final payment by City.
3.7.9 Prevailing Wages. Contractor is aware of the requirements of California
Labor Code Section 1720 et seq., and 1770 et seq., as well as California Code of Regulations,
Title 8, Section 16000 et seq., (“Prevailing Wage Laws”), which require the payment of
prevailing wage rates and the performance of other requirements on “public works” and
“maintenance” projects. Since the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “public
works” or “maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, and if the total
compensation is $25,000 or more, Contractor agrees to fully comply with such Prevailing Wage
Laws. City shall provide Contractor with a copy of the prevailing rates of per diem wages in
effect at the commencement of this Contract. Contractor shall make copies of the prevailing
rates of per diem wages for each craft, classification or type of worker needed to execute the
24347.00006\9536520.5 6
Services available to interested parties upon request, and shall post copies at Contractor’s
principal place of business and at the project site. Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold
the City, its officials, officers, employees and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability
arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws. Contractor
and any subcontractor shall forfeit a penalty of up to $200 per calendar day or portion thereof for
each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rates.
3.7.10 Apprenticeable Crafts. If the Total Contract Price exceeds $35,000 and if
Contractor employs workmen in an apprenticeable craft or trade, Contractor shall comply with
the provisions of Section 1777.5 of the California Labor Code with respect to the employment of
properly registered apprentices upon public works. The primary responsibility for compliance
with said section for all apprenticeable occupations shall be with Contractor. The Contractor or
any subcontractor that is determined by the Labor Commissioner to have knowingly violated
Section 1777.5 shall forfeit as a civil penalty an amount not exceeding $100 for each full
calendar day of noncompliance, or such greater amount as provided by law.
3.7.11 Hours of Work. If the Total Contract Price exceeds $25,000, Contractor is
advised that eight (8) hours labor constitutes a legal day’s work. Pursuant to Section 1813 of
the California Labor Code, Contractor shall forfeit a penalty of $25.00 per worker for each day
that each worker is permitted to work more than eight (8) hours in any one calendar day and
forty (40) hours in any one calendar week, except when payment for overtime is made at not
less than one and one-half (1-1/2) times the basic rate for that worker.
3.7.12 Payroll Records. If the Total Contract Price exceeds $25,000, Contractor
and each subcontractor shall keep an accurate payroll record, showing the name, address,
social security number, work classification, straight time and overtime hours worked each day
and week, and the actual per diem wages paid to each journeyman, apprentice, worker, or other
employee employed by him or her in connection with the public work. The payroll records shall
be certified and shall be available for inspection at all reasonable hours at the principal office of
Contractor in the manner provided in Labor Code section 1776. In the event of noncompliance
with the requirements of this section, Contractor shall have 10 days in which to comply
subsequent to receipt of written notice specifying in what respects such Contractor must comply
with this section. Should noncompliance still be evident after such 10-day period, Contractor
shall, as a penalty to City, forfeit not more than $100.00 for each calendar day or portion
thereof, for each worker, until strict compliance is effectuated. The amount of the forfeiture is to
be determined by the Labor Commissioner. A contractor who is found to have violated the
provisions of law regarding wages on Public Works with the intent to defraud shall be ineligible
to bid on Public Works contracts for a period of one to three years as determined by the Labor
Commissioner. Upon the request of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of
Labor Standards Enforcement, such penalties shall be withheld from progress payments then
due. The responsibility for compliance with this section is on Contractor. The requirement to
submit certified payroll records directly to the Labor Commissioner under Labor Code section
1771.4 shall not apply to work performed on a public works project that is exempt pursuant to
the small project exemption specified in Labor Code Section 1771.4.
3.7.13 Contractor and Subcontractor Registration. If the Total Contract Price
exceeds $25,000, then pursuant to Labor Code sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, all contractors and
subcontractors that wish to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, or enter into a contract to perform
public work must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations. No bid will be
accepted nor any contract entered into without proof of the contractor’s and subcontractors’
current registration with the Department of Industrial Relations to perform public work.
Contractor is directed to review, fill out and execute the Public Works Contractor Registration
24347.00006\9536520.5 7
Certification attached hereto as Exhibit “E” prior to contract execution. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the contractor registration requirements mandated by Labor Code Sections 1725.5
and 1771.1 shall not apply to work performed on a public works project that is exempt pursuant
to the small project exemption specified in Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1.
3.7.14 Labor Compliance; Stop Orders. If the Total Contract Price exceeds
$25,000, Contractor acknowledges that it is aware that this Project is subject to compliance
monitoring and enforcement by the Department of Industrial Relations. It shall be the
Contractor’s sole responsibility to evaluate and pay the cost of complying with all labor
compliance requirements under this Contract and applicable law. Any stop orders issued by the
Department of Industrial Relations against Contractor or any subcontractor that affect
Contractor’s performance of Work, including any delay, shall be Contractor’s sole responsibility.
Any delay arising out of or resulting from such stop orders shall be considered Contractor
caused delay subject to any applicable liquidated damages and shall not be compensable by
the City. Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold the City, its officials, officers, employees
and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of stop orders issued by the
Department of Industrial Relations against Contractor or any subcontractor.
3.8 Performance of Work; Jobsite Obligations.
3.8.1 Water Quality Management and Compliance.
3.8.1.1 Water Quality Management and Compliance. Contractor
shall keep itself and all subcontractors, staff, and employees fully informed of and in compliance
with all local, state and federal laws, rules and regulations that may impact, or be implicated by
the performance of the Work including, without limitation, all applicable provisions of the Federal
Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C. §§ 1300); the California Porter-Cologne Water Quality
Control Act (Cal Water Code §§ 13000-14950); local ordinances regulating discharges of storm
water; and any and all regulations, policies, or permits issued pursuant to any such authority
regulating the discharge of pollutants, as that term is used in the Porter-Cologne Water Quality
Control Act, to any ground or surface water in the State.
3.8.1.2 Compliance with the Statewide Construction General
Permit. Contractor shall comply with all conditions of the most recent iteration of the National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System General Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated
with Construction Activity, issued by the California State Water Resources Control Board
(“Permit”). It shall be Contractor’s sole responsibility to file a Notice of Intent and procure
coverage under the Permit for all construction activity which results in the disturbance of more
than one acre of total land area or which is part of a larger common area of development or
sale. Prior to initiating work, Contractor shall be solely responsible for preparing and
implementing a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) as required by the Permit.
Contractor shall be responsible for procuring, implementing and complying with the provisions of
the Permit and the SWPPP, including the standard provisions, and monitoring and reporting
requirements as required by the Permit. The Permit requires the SWPPP to be a “living
document” that changes as necessary to meet the conditions and requirements of the job site
as it progresses through difference phases of construction and is subject to different weather
conditions. It shall be Contractor’s sole responsibility to update the SWPPP as necessary to
address conditions at the project site.
3.8.1.3 Other Water Quality Rules Regulations and Policies.
Contractor shall comply with the lawful requirements of any applicable municipality, drainage
City, or local agency regarding discharges of storm water to separate storm drain systems or
24347.00006\9536520.5 8
other watercourses under their jurisdiction, including applicable requirements in municipal storm
water management programs.
3.8.1.4 Cost of Compliance. Storm, surface, nuisance, or other
waters may be encountered at various times during construction of The Work. Therefore, the
Contractor, by submitting a Bid, hereby acknowledges that it has investigated the risk arising
from such waters, has prepared its Bid accordingly, and assumes any and all risks and liabilities
arising therefrom.
3.8.1.5 Liability for Non-Compliance. Failure to comply with the
Permit is a violation of federal and state law. Pursuant to the indemnification provisions of this
Contract, Contractor hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City and its
officials, officers, employees, volunteers and agents for any alleged violations. In addition, City
may seek damages from Contractor for any delay in completing the Work in accordance with
the Contract, if such delay is caused by or related to Contractor’s failure to comply with the
Permit.
3.8.1.6 Reservation of Right to Defend. City reserves the right to
defend any enforcement action brought against the City for Contractor’s failure to comply with
the Permit or any other relevant water quality law, regulation, or policy. Pursuant to the
indemnification provisions of this Contract, Contractor hereby agrees to be bound by, and to
reimburse the City for the costs (including the City’s attorney’s fees) associated with, any
settlement reached between the City and the relevant enforcement entity.
3.8.1.7 Training. In addition to the standard of performance
requirements set forth in paragraph 3.4, Contractor warrants that all employees and
subcontractors shall have sufficient skill and experience to perform the Work assigned to them
without impacting water quality in violation of the laws, regulations and policies described in
paragraph 3.8.1. Contractor further warrants that it, its employees and subcontractors will
receive adequate training, as determined by City, regarding the requirements of the laws,
regulations and policies described in paragraph 3.8.1 as they may relate to the Work provided
under this Agreement. Upon request, City will provide the Contractor with a list of training
programs that meet the requirements of this paragraph.
3.8.2 Safety. Contractor shall execute and maintain its work so as to avoid
injury or damage to any person or property. Contractor shall comply with the requirements of
the specifications relating to safety measures applicable in particular operations or kinds of
work. In carrying out its Work, Contractor shall at all times be in compliance with all applicable
local, state and federal laws, rules and regulations, and shall exercise all necessary precautions
for the safety of employees appropriate to the nature of the Work and the conditions under
which the Work is to be performed. Safety precautions as applicable shall include, but shall not
be limited to, adequate life protection and lifesaving equipment; adequate illumination for
underground and night operations; instructions in accident prevention for all employees, such as
machinery guards, safe walkways, scaffolds, ladders, bridges, gang planks, confined space
procedures, trenching and shoring, fall protection and other safety devices, equipment and
wearing apparel as are necessary or lawfully required to prevent accidents or injuries; and
adequate facilities for the proper inspection and maintenance of all safety measures.
Furthermore, Contractor shall prominently display the names and telephone numbers of at least
two medical doctors practicing in the vicinity of the Project, as well as the telephone number of
the local ambulance service, adjacent to all telephones at the Project site.
3.8.3 Laws and Regulations. Contractor shall keep itself fully informed of and
in compliance with all local, state and federal laws, rules and regulations in any manner
24347.00006\9536520.5 9
affecting the performance of the Contract or the Work, including all Cal/OSHA requirements,
and shall give all notices required by law. Contractor shall be liable for all violations of such
laws and regulations in connection with Work. If Contractor observes that the drawings or

public entity of the State of California subject to certain provisions of the Health & Safety Code,
Government Code, Public Contract Code, and Labor Code of the State. It is stipulated and
agreed that all provisions of the law applicable to the public contracts of a municipality are a part

Work governed by this Contract entails excavation of any trench or trenches five (5) feet or
more in depth, Contractor shall comply with all applicable provisions of the California Labor
Code, including Section 6705. To this end, Contractor shall submit for City’s review and
approval a detailed plan showing the design of shoring, bracing, sloping, or other provisions to

excavation that Contractor believes to be a hazardous waste that is required to be removed to a
Class I, Class II or Class III disposal site; (2) subsurface or latent physical conditions at the site
differing from those indicated by City; and (3) unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature
at the site, significantly different from those ordinarily encountered in such contract work. Upon
notification, City shall promptly investigate the conditions to determine whether a change order
is appropriate. In the event of a dispute, Contractor shall not be excused from any scheduled
completion date and shall proceed with all Work to be performed under the Contract, but shall
retain all rights provided by the Contract or by law for making protests and resolving the dispute.

and regulations in furnishing or using equipment and/or providing services, including, but not
limited to, emissions limits and permitting requirements imposed by the California Air Resources
Board (CARB). Although CARB limits and requirements are more broad, Contractor shall
specifically be aware of their application to "portable equipment", which definition is considered
by CARB to include any item of equipment with a fuel-powered engine. Contractor shall
indemnify City against any fines or penalties imposed by CARB, or any other governmental or
regulatory agency for violations of applicable laws, rules and/or regulations by Contractor, its
subcontractors, or others for whom Contractor is responsible under its indemnity obligations
provided for in this Agreement.

or items of Work which are unsatisfactory or incomplete. Once Contractor determines that it
has completed the incomplete or unsatisfactory Work, Contractor may request a reinspection by
the City. Once the Work is acceptable to City, City shall pay to Contractor the Total Contract

retain. Payment of retention proceeds due to Contractor shall be made in accordance with
Section 7107 of the California Public Contract Code.

claim shall be processed and made within 60 days after City issues its written statement. Any
disputed portion of the claim, as identified by the Contractor in writing, shall be submitted to
nonbinding mediation, with City and the Contractor sharing the associated costs equally. City
and Contractor shall mutually agree to a mediator within 10 business days after the disputed

written claim pursuant to subdivision (a) until the time the claim is denied, including any period

3.10.8 Civil Actions. The following procedures are established for all civil actions
filed to resolve claims subject to this Section:
3.10.8.1 Within 60 days, but no earlier than 30 days, following the

of disputed claims.
3.11 Loss and Damage. Except as may otherwise be limited by law, Contractor shall
be responsible for all loss and damage which may arise out of the nature of the Work agreed to

void; otherwise it shall be and remain in full force and effect.
As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the Contract Documents,
unless otherwise provided for in the Contract Documents, the above obligation shall hold good
for a period of one (1) year after the acceptance of the work by City, during which time if
Contractor shall fail to make full, complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally

equity, including, but not limited to, California Code of Civil Procedure section 337.15.
Whenever Contractor shall be, and is declared by the City to be, in default under the

bidder, the Surety and the City, and make available as work progresses sufficient
funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the balance of the
contract price, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable.
The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the
total amount payable to Contractor by the City under the Contract and any
modification thereto, less any amount previously paid by the City to the
Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract Documents.
(3) Permit the City to complete the Project in any manner consistent with local,
California and federal law and make available as work progresses sufficient
funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the balance of the

from Contractor for completion of the Project if the City, when declaring the Contractor in
default, notifies Surety of the City’s objection to Contractor’s further participation in the
completion of the Project.
The Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no change, extension
of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project to be

the employment of mechanics or laborers must include a provision for compliance with 40
U.S.C. §§ 3702 and 3704, as supplemented by Department of Labor regulations (29 C.F.R. § 5).
Under 40 U.S.C. § 3702 of the Act, each contractor must be required to compute the wages of
every mechanic and laborer on the basis of a standard work week of 40 hours. Work in excess
of the standard work week is permissible provided that the worker is compensated at a rate of
not less than one and a half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of 40
hours in the work week. The requirements of 40 U.S.C. § 3704 are applicable to construction
work and provide that no laborer or mechanic must be required to work in surroundings or
under working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous or dangerous. These requirements
do not apply to the purchases of supplies or materials or articles ordinarily available on the
open market, or contracts for transportation or transmission of intelligence. This provision is
hereby incorporated by reference into this Contract. Supplier certifies that during the term of
an award for all contracts by Sourcewell resulting from this procurement process, Supplier must
comply with applicable requirements as referenced above.
D. RIGHTS TO INVENTIONS MADE UNDER A CONTRACT OR AGREEMENT. If the federal award
meets the definition of “funding agreement” under 37 C.F.R. § 401.2(a) and the recipient or
subrecipient wishes to enter into a contract with a small business firm or nonprofit organization
regarding the substitution of parties, assignment or performance of experimental,
developmental, or research work under that “funding agreement,” the recipient or subrecipient
must comply with the requirements of 37 C.F.R. § 401, “Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit
Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative
Agreements,” and any implementing regulations issued by the awarding agency. Supplier
certifies that during the term of an award for all contracts by Sourcewell resulting from this
procurement process, Supplier must comply with applicable requirements as referenced above.
E. CLEAN AIR ACT (42 U.S.C. § 7401-7671Q.) AND THE FEDERAL WATER POLLUTION CONTROL
ACT (33 U.S.C. § 1251-1387). Contracts and subgrants of amounts in excess of $150,000 require
the non-federal award to agree to comply with all applicable standards, orders or regulations
issued pursuant to the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. § 7401- 7671q) and the Federal Water Pollution
Control Act as amended (33 U.S.C. § 1251- 1387). Violations must be reported to the Federal
awarding agency and the Regional Office of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Supplier certifies that during the term of this Contract will comply with applicable requirements
as referenced above.
F. DEBARMENT AND SUSPENSION (EXECUTIVE ORDERS 12549 AND 12689). A contract award
(see 2 C.F.R. § 180.220) must not be made to parties listed on the government wide exclusions
in the System for Award Management (SAM), in accordance with the OMB guidelines at 2 C.F.R.
§180 that implement Executive Orders 12549 (3 C.F.R. § 1986 Comp., p. 189) and 12689 (3

any required certifications. Suppliers must not have used federal appropriated funds to pay any
person or organization for influencing or attempting to influence an officer or employee of any
agency, a member of Congress, officer or employee of Congress, or an employee of a member
of Congress in connection with obtaining any federal contract, grant, or any other award
covered by 31 U.S.C. § 1352. Suppliers must disclose any lobbying with non-federal funds that
takes place in connection with obtaining any federal award. Such disclosures are forwarded
from tier to tier up to the non-federal award. Suppliers must file all certifications and
disclosures required by, and otherwise comply with, the Byrd Anti-Lobbying Amendment (31
U.S.C. § 1352).
H. RECORD RETENTION REQUIREMENTS. To the extent applicable, Supplier must comply with
the record retention requirements detailed in 2 C.F.R. § 200.333. The Supplier further certifies

K. ACCESS TO RECORDS (2 C.F.R. § 200.336). Supplier agrees that duly authorized
representatives of a federal agency must have access to any books, documents, papers and

right also includes timely and reasonable access to Supplier’s personnel for the purpose of
interview and discussion relating to such documents.
L. PROCUREMENT OF RECOVERED MATERIALS (2 C.F.R. § 200.322). A non-federal entity that is
a state agency or agency of a political subdivision of a state and its contractors must comply
with Section 6002 of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended by the Resource Conservation

Rev. 3/2021 17
and Recovery Act. The requirements of Section 6002 include procuring only items designated in
guidelines of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) at 40 C.F.R. § 247 that contain the
highest percentage of recovered materials practicable, consistent with maintaining a
satisfactory level of competition, where the purchase price of the item exceeds $10,000 or the
value of the quantity acquired during the preceding fiscal year exceeded $10,000; procuring
solid waste management services in a manner that maximizes energy and resource recovery;
and establishing an affirmative procurement program for procurement of recovered materials
identified in the EPA guidelines.
M. FEDERAL SEAL(S), LOGOS, AND FLAGS. The Supplier not use the seal(s), logos, crests, or

resulting from the Contract or any purchase by an authorized user.
O. PROGRAM FRAUD AND FALSE OR FRAUDULENT STATEMENTS OR RELATED ACTS. The

Q. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. The Supplier must notify the U.S. Office of General Services,
Sourcewell, and Participating Entity as soon as possible if this Contract or any aspect related to
the anticipated work under this Contract raises an actual or potential conflict of interest (as
described in 2 C.F.R. Part 200). The Supplier must explain the actual or potential conflict in
writing in sufficient detail so that the U.S. Office of General Services, Sourcewell,
and Participating Entity are able to assess the actual or potential conflict; and provide any
additional information as necessary or requested.
R. U.S. EXECUTIVE ORDER 13224. The Supplier, and its subcontractors, must comply with U.S.
Executive Order 13224 and U.S. Laws that prohibit transactions with and provision of resources
and support to individuals and organizations associated with terrorism.
S. PROHIBITION ON CERTAIN TELECOMMUNICATIONS AND VIDEO SURVEILLANCE SERVICES OR

070121-CAR
Rev. 3/2021 18
T. DOMESTIC PREFERENCES FOR PROCUREMENTS. To the extent applicable, Supplier certifies
that during the term of this Contract will comply with applicable requirements of 2 C.F.R. §
200.322.
U. FEDERAL GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS STIPULATION. Supplier is a commercial entity and
the components, equipment and services to be included by Supplier in its proposal and to be
provided in the event of an award are offered on the basis that they constitute commercial
items as defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulations ("FAR"). Similarly, the prices to be
offered by Supplier in its proposal, and which would be offered in any resulting contract and
any modifications or changes to such contract are based on Supplier's standard commercial
accounting policies and practices. Supplier’s accounting practices comply fully with U.S. GAAP,
but do not take into account any additional or special requirements of Cost Accounting
Standards, nor meet the requirements of FAR Part 31 or any similar procurement regulations,
including those of the U.S. Department of Defense. Accordingly, Supplier makes its proposal
based on its belief that an award can be made to Supplier consistent with FAR Part 12 -
"Acquisition of Commercial Items,” and that submission of cost and pricing data consistent with
CAS/FAR Part 31 will not be required. Supplier does not accept and will not be held liable for
any flow down requirements unless specifically agreed to in writing.
22. CANCELLATION
Sourcewell or Supplier may cancel this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon 60
days’ written notice to the other party. However, Sourcewell may cancel this Contract
immediately upon discovery of a material defect in any certification made in Supplier’s
Proposal. Cancellation of this Contract does not relieve either party of financial, product, or
service obligations incurred or accrued prior to cancellation.
