Contract 02/22 v1
ARTICLE 1 TERMS OF PERFORMANCE

1.01 Construction Services Agreement (Agreement) Force and Effect. The provisions of the Agreement and other Contract Documents constitute the entire agreement between the Contractor and Owner regarding the Work described herein. No representation, term or covenant not expressly specified in the Contract Documents shall, whether oral or written, be a part of this agreement. The Agreement and other Contract Documents shall govern the Work described herein (whenever performed), and shall supersede all other purchase orders and agreements between Contractor and Owner, and any proposal, with respect to the Work described herein.

1.02 No Modification or Waiver. The Contract Documents may not be modified, nor may compliance with any of its terms be waived, except by written instrument executed and approved by fully authorized representatives of Owner and Contractor. Contract Documents headings are for convenience only and do not affect the construction of the Contract Documents.

1.03 Performance of Work/No Assignment. Time is of the
essence in the performance of the Work. Contractor will perform the Work in a skillful and workmanlike manner; comply fully with criteria established by Owner, and with applicable laws, codes, and all applicable industry standards. Contractor shall maintain its work area in a clean and sanitary condition, clear debris and trash at the end of each work day, and shall not damage or disrupt any property unless specifically part of the scope of the Agreement. Contractor shall not contract any portion of the Work or otherwise assign the Agreement without prior written approval of Owner, and any assignment without Owner’s prior written approval shall be null and void. (Contractor shall remain responsible for compliance with all terms of the Contract Documents, regardless of the terms of any such assignment.) The Contractor shall permit Owner (or its designees) access to the work area, Contractor’s shop, or any other facility, to permit inspection of the Work at all times during construction and/or manufacture and fabrication. The granting of any progress payment, and any inspections, reviews, approvals or oral statements by any Owner representative, or certification by any governmental entity, shall in no way limit Contractor’s obligations under the Contract Documents. Either party’s waiver of any breach, or the omission or failure of either party, at any time, to enforce any right reserved to it, or to require strict performance of any provision of the Contract Documents, shall not be a waiver of any other right to which any party is entitled, and shall not in any way affect, limit, modify or waive that party’s right thereafter to enforce or compel strict compliance with every provision hereof. Owner shall have, at all times, set-off rights with respect to any payment and Contractor’s failure to perform the terms of the Contract Documents.

ARTICLE 2 LEGAL AND MISCELLANEOUS

2.01 Records and Payment Requests. Contractor shall submit all billings with all necessary invoices or other appropriate evidence of proper performance, after which Owner shall make payment within thirty (30) days.

Notwithstanding any provision of the Contract Documents, Owner shall not be liable to Contractor or anyone claiming under it, in contract or tort, for any special, consequential, indirect or incidental damages arising out of or in connection with the Contract Documents or the Work.

Contractor’s obligations to defend, indemnify, and save harmless the Owner Indemnities are undertaken in addition to, and shall not in any way be limited by, the insurance obligations contained within this Agreement.

Contractor’s responsibility for such defense and indemnity obligations shall survive the termination or completion of this Agreement for the full period of time allowed by law.

2.04 Defective Work; Warranties. Contractor warrants that all construction services shall be performed in accordance with generally accepted professional standards of good and sound construction practices, all Contract Documents requirements, and all laws, codes, standards, licenses, and permits. Contractor warrants that all materials and equipment shall be new, of suitable grade of their respective kinds for their intended uses, and free from defects. Contractor hereby grants to Owner for a period of one year following the date of completion its unconditional warranty of the quality and adequacy of all of the Work including, without limitation, all labor, materials and equipment provided by Contractor and its Subcontractors of all tiers.

Contractor warrants that no person or agency has been employed or retained to solicit or obtain the Agreement upon an agreement or understanding for a contingent fee, except a bona fide employee or agency. Contractor shall not engage in unlawful employment discrimination including, but not limited to, discrimination Contract 03/22 v1

2.06 Termination; Suspension; Disputes. Owner may direct Contractor to terminate, suspend, delay, interrupt or accelerate Work, in whole or in part, for such periods of time as Owner may determine in its sole discretion. Owner will issue such directives in writing, and may do so, in whole or in part, for its convenience or due to Contractor’s fault.

Owner will compensate Contractor for extra costs resulting from such directives only to the extent that Owner issues such directives for its convenience and not due to Contractor’s fault (but Owner shall not compensate Contractor for costs, profit or overhead anticipated to be earned or incurred on Work terminated for Owner’s convenience.) Contractor shall continue its Work throughout the course of any dispute, and Contractor’s failure to continue Work during a dispute shall be a material breach of the Contract Documents. All claims by Contractor against Owner shall be submitted in writing to Owner, and shall be governed by Public Contract Code Sections 9204 and 20104 – 20104.6, after which time the one year time period in Government Code Section 911.2 shall be, pursuant to Government Code Section 930.2, reduced to 90 days.

3. When the protest concerning an approved work order relates to the adjustment of contract time for the completion of the work, the time to be allowed will be determined as provided in Paragraph 1.15 of this section.

D. Extra Work:

SUPPLEMENTAL CONDITIONS
Contract 03/22 v1
City of Foster City 00-5205 - 13
contractors performing related work, the decision of the Engineer shall be final and binding upon both parties, except in the case of gross error.

B. The Engineer will make periodic observations of materials and completed work to observe their compliance with plans, specifications, and design and planning concepts, but the Contractor shall be responsible for the superintendence of construction processes, coordination of subcontractors or materials, site conditions, operations, equipment, personnel, or the maintenance of a safe place to work or any safety in, on, or about the site of the work.

C. Authority and Duties of Engineer's Field Representatives:

Field representatives of the Engineer may be stationed on the project site to report to the Engineer as to the progress of the work, the manner in which it is being performed, and to report whenever it appears that material furnished and work performed by the Contractor fail to fulfill the requirements of the contract documents. The representative may direct the attention of the Contractor to such failure or infringement but such construction review shall not relieve the Contractor from any obligation to furnish acceptable materials or to provide completed construction in a safe and satisfactory manner in every particular.

2. In case any dispute arises between the Engineer's field representative and the Contractor as to materials furnished or the satisfactory performance of the work, the representative shall have the authority to reject materials or recommend suspension of the work by the Engineer until the question and issue can be referred to and decided by the Engineer. Such authority, however, shall not give rise to any duty on the part of Engineer's field representative to exercise this right for the benefit of Contractor or any other party. Field representatives are not authorized to revoke, alter, enlarge, relax or release any requirements of the contract documents nor to issue instructions contrary to the contract documents. Field representatives shall in no case act as foremen, superintendents, or perform other duties for the Contractor or interfere with the management of the work by the Contractor.

If such tests were not required to be performed by the Contractor by the contract documents, the cost of testing will be paid for by the City when tests show that materials or equipment comply with the contract documents, and shall be paid for by the Appendix F to Contract

Contract 02/22 v1
This COVID-19 Amendment/Attachment amends the Agreement between City of Foster City (“City”) and Shaw Integrated and Turf Solutions, Inc. dba Shaw Sports Synthetic Turf (“Contractor”) dated May 20, 2024.

1. Definitions
A. The 2019 novel coronavirus and the disease it causes are collectively referred to herein as “COVID-19”.

B. A “COVID-19 Condition” is something attributable to COVID- 19 not caused by the Contractor (which for purposes herein includes all subcontractors) and beyond its reasonable control including but not limited to COVID-19 Proclamations and supply chain disruptions due to COVID- 19, and other circumstances concerning COVID-19 not caused by the Contractor and which are beyond its reasonable control.

C. A “COVID-19 Proclamation” includes but is not limited to orders, directives and guidance concerning COVID-19 that have been issued, and which may be issued from time to time, by public agencies or regulatory bodies, the CDC or OSHA or Cal/OSHA, including without limitation the Cal/OSHA COVID-19 Prevention Emergency Temporary Standards. Contractor acknowledges that those orders, directives and guidance may require the Project to shut down or otherwise increase the Contractor’s cost or time of performance by calling for things such as social distancing and the use of personal protective equipment. In the event of conflicting COVID-19 Proclamations, the Contractor shall follow the most applicable, restrictive and newest COVID-19 Proclamations.

D. An “Unknown COVID-19 Condition” is a COVID-19
Condition the Contractor did not know about, and reasonably should not have known about, as of the date the Contractor submitted its proposal.

The requirements contained in COVID-19 Proclamations issued before submission of a proposal are not Unknown COVID-19 Conditions, and the Contractor will be deemed to have knowledge of those requirements.

E. An “Unknown COVID-19 Cost” is a cost that: (i) is solely attributable to an Unknown COVID-19 Condition; (ii) is reasonable and unavoidable under the circumstances; (iii) is not the result of the Contractor’s failure to comply with the contract documents or a COVID-19 Proclamation; and (iv) is not the result of a subcontractors failure to comply with a COVID-19 Proclamation in connection with the performance of the Services.

2. COVID-19 Conditions and Proposal. Contractor is expected to know and is deemed to have known about COVID-19 Conditions when it submits its proposal, and COVID-19 Conditions must be accounted for in the Contractor’s price and schedule. In order to be entitled to any relief from a COVID-19 Condition, the Contractor must demonstrate that the issue, cost or delay is due to an Unknown COVID-19 Condition.

3. Compliance with COVID-19 Proclamations.

A. Contractor shall comply with COVID-19 Proclamations in the performance of the Services, irrespective of when the COVID-19 Proclamations are issued, and as they pertains to performance of the Services. The cost of such compliance is non-compensable, except as otherwise expressly stated herein.

B. Contractor is responsible to ensure that its subcontractors and suppliers comply with COVID-19 Proclamations at all times in connection with the performance of their Services.

4. Delay. The Contractor is entitled to a reasonable time extension for an Unknown COVID-19 Condition. Such time extension is non- compensable.

5. City Directed Suspension. The City may suspend Services due to COVID-19 health concerns, even though the Contractor may be allowed to proceed with the Services based on COVID-19 Proclamations. The City may suspend the Services for its convenience. The Contractor is entitled to a time extension for a City Directed Suspension, and the contract amount will be equitably adjusted if and to the extent Contractor incurs increased costs that are Unknown COVID-19 Costs.

6. Compensation for COVID-19 Costs. City will reimburse the Contractor for Unknown COVID-19 Costs which are not included in the schedule of values.

7. Safe Work Practices. Contractor shall implement safe work practices recommended by CDC or OSHA or Cal/OSHA, which may include, inter alia, screening all employees, subcontractors, or others (“worker(s)”) at all locations where Services are performed for signs and symptoms of COVID-19; adopting staggered work schedules, e.g., providing alternating workdays or extra shifts, to reduce the total number of employees on a site at any given time and to ensure physical distancing; identifying choke points where workers are forced to stand together, such as hallways and elevators, ingress and egress points, break areas, and buses, and implement policies to maintain social distancing; coordinating deliveries in line with the employer's minimal contact and cleaning protocols; and instituting a rigorous housekeeping program to reduce dust levels at all exterior locations. Contractor remains fully responsible for following and complying with changes to recommended safe work practices from time to time.

8. Monitoring and Reporting. City may require the Contractor to actively monitor the health of its workers through temperature checks and questionnaires of major COVID-19 symptoms, including but not limited to cough, fever above 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit and shortness of breath.

Contractor shall immediately report to City any outbreaks of COVID-19 among its workers. The Contractor shall not knowingly allow any worker who has tested positive with COVID-19 to enter a City building. In the event of an outbreak or an exposure to COVID-19, the City may impose appropriate mitigation strategies which may be in consultation with the public health officer.

9. Conflicts. In the event of an inconsistency between this COVID-19 Amendment and the Agreement, this Addendum shall control.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the City and Contractor have executed this Covid-19 Amendment as of the date set forth above.

Technical Requirements

3.01TURF FIELD BASE PREPARATION AND ADJUSTMENTS
A.Contractor shall ensure that the existing perimeter field subdrain trenches beneath the existing drainage / shock pad product are free draining (minimum 50 inches per hour as tested by an acceptable hydraulic ASTM infiltration / permeability test).

B.Contractor is to fine grade and provide planarity of the existing rock base. Contractor is to exercise extreme care not to contaminate the existing subdrain trench drain rock trenches. Intent is just to smooth out any identified inconsistencies in the grade due to operations related to the removal of the old synthetic turf and prior to the re-installation of the drainage /shock pad and turf products. Once fine graded, the rock base shall be checked by the Contractor (under the observation of the Owner representative) by use of a string line method. A mason’s line held taught between two workmen separated by a distance of approximately 100-125 feet, shall be placed directly on the finished surface, parallel to the direction of greatest slope. A third workman shall check for separations between the mason’s line and the finished surface of the crushed rock. Areas of separation shall be outlined with marking paint and the depth of separation indicated. Entire finished surface shall be “walked” with mason’s line in increments of approximately 3-6 feet. No deviation over the string line greater than ½” will be allowed, or 1/8” deviation over a ten foot long straightedge.

C.Once the planarity of the permeable rock base has been reviewed and accepted by the Owner, the Contractor shall re-install the drainage / shock pad product in strict compliance with the manufacturer installation instructions. Contractor to exercise extreme care in order to avoid disturbing the field rock base. Any new panels that are needed to replace compromised or damaged panels or pieces of the drainage / shock pad are to be provided at the Contractor’s sole expense.

D.Contractor to take measures to ensure that the pad product is not exposed to the outdoor elements longer than the manufacturer’s recommendations. Any product that exceeds this time duration shall be removed from the project site immediately and not used on the project.

E.All sections of the pad material shall be interlocked and/or connected to adjacent pieces of the pad material in strict conformance with the manufacturer’s written recommendations.

3.02INSTALLING THE SYNTHETIC TURF
A.The installation shall be performed in full compliance with the reviewed and accepted product submittal.

B.Only trained technicians, skilled in the installation of athletic caliber synthetic turf systems working under the direct supervision of the approved installer/manufacturer supervisors, shall undertake any cutting, sewing, gluing, shearing, topdressing or brushing operations.

C.The turf contractor shall strictly adhere to the installation procedures outlined in this section. Any variance from these requirements must be submitted to and accepted in writing, by the manufacturer’s onsite representative, and submitted to the Owner, verifying that the changes do not, in any way, affect the warranty.

D.The Turf Company’s installation foreman shall inspect and accept the field’s base, including the permeable crushed rock and drain / shock pad installation. Turf Company

shall provide documentation to that effect, prior to the installation of the synthetic grass system.

The surface shall be clean as installation commences and shall be maintained in that condition throughout the process.

E.The carpet rolls are to be installed directly over the existing (and replacement panels) shock pad material. No equipment with loads greater than 35 pounds per square inch (35 psi) shall be allowed on the field. As required, Contractor is responsible for altering operations in order to adhere to this requirement. Contractor and synthetic turf installer shall strictly adhere to the written instructions provided by the shock pad manufacturer for installing turf on top of their product. Contractor shall always make sure that those vehicles that go on top of the shock pad are equipped with pneumatic (air-filled) tires, preferably turf tires. These tires are designed to spread loads and minimize damage to surface. Foam Filled or solid tires as well as tires with aggressive lug patterns should not be used on the Brock base, without synthetic turf installed. If possible, use of an A-frame for unrolling of the synthetic turf is strongly recommended.

F.Any cutouts in the synthetic turf shall be per plans. Coordinate all cutouts in turf with Owner’s Representative before cutting turf for utility boxes or other structures.

G.The carpet rolls are to be installed directly over the properly prepared base. Extreme care should be taken to avoid disturbing the base, both in regard to compaction and planarity. It is suggested that a 2 - 5-ton static roller is on site and available to repair and properly compact any disturbed areas of the prepared base.

H.The full width rolls shall be laid out across the width of the field. Utilizing standard state of the art sewing or gluing procedures, each roll shall be attached as noted below to the next. When all of the rolls of the playing surface have been installed, the sideline areas shall be installed at right angles to the playing field turf.

I.The synthetic turf field shall utilize sewn seams. Minimum gluing will only be permitted to repair problem areas, corner completions, and to cut in any inlaid lines as required by the specifications.

Seams between turf panels must be sewn. Inlaid markings may not be installed by means of cutting through the fabric and adhering the colored turf to a separate reinforcing tape or cloth. Rather, inlaid markings (that cannot be tufted into the fabric), shall be installed by means of shearing out the existing green fiber and laying in a new piece of colored fabric into a bed of suitable “hot melt” adhesive placed directly on the original turf backing material. Systems that cut through the turf fabric for inlaid lines are not acceptable due to the fact that such a procedure shall weaken the structural integrity of the turf fabric backing. All seams shall be sewn using double bagger stitches and polyester thread or adhered using seaming tape and high grade adhesive (per the manufacturer’s standard procedures). Seams shall be flat, tight, and permanent with no separation or fraying.

J.Contractor to install industrial strength industry-specific velcro systems for the high face- weight insert panels at the baseball and softball high wear areas as called out in item 2.01. These systems shall be durable and stable enough to not move under foot traffic, but be able to be pulled apart and have the bottom receiving Velcro connection remain intact and in place, so that one of the replacement turf panels can replace the worn turf panel.

K.Connections of the existing perimeter synthetic turf edges shall be completed by one of the following two methods:
a.For existing perimeter concrete edges (with recessed edge), use the manufacturer-approved adhesive.

b.For existing header boards, use industrial staples (min. depth embedment is one inch (1”) at maximum 4 inch (4”) on center staple spacing.

L.The new infill materials shall be applied in thin lifts. The turf shall be brushed as the mixture is applied.

The infill material shall be installed to a depth as specified in this section. The mix shall be uniform and even in thickness to assure proper playing characteristics.

M.The infill materials shall be installed to fill the voids between the fibers and allow the fibers to remain vertical and non-directional. The infill shall be not less than 1.25 inch depth and be placed so that there is not more than a ¾” void to the top of the fibers.

N.At near Substantial Completion of the synthetic turf field, the turf contractor shall test for shock absorbency. The turf contractor and/or manufacturer shall pay for an independent testing laboratory accredited for such tests (who shall be pre-approved by the Owner). All testing and analysis of findings shall be completed by qualified persons utilizing correct techniques. The laboratory shall provide the necessary testing data to the Owner that verifies the finished field meets or exceeds the required shock attenuation. The G-max range shall not exceed 130 for the life of the warranty, as determined by the ASTM F355A and F1936 test procedures. Any test results that do not meet the requirements of this specification or if any one test value is greater than ten percent (10%) greater in variance as specified in 3.03-B, then the Contractor’s field installer shall address the failed test area, be required to retest the entire field as stated above, and conform to these requirements prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Substantial Completion.
