ARTICLE 7. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION

7.1 California Law.

This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, and governed both as to validity and to performance of the Parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim, or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of San Bernardino, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Consultant covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action.

In the event of litigation in a U.S. District Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, Eastern Division.

7.2 Disputes; Default.

In the event that Consultant is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Consultant for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Consultant of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Consultant may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Consultant is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall proceed with Page-14
payment on the invoices only when the default is cured. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Consultant does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article. Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Consultant’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.

7.3 Retention of Funds.

Consultant hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Consultant (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Consultant’s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Consultant’s obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Consultant, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Consultant to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.

7.4 Waiver.

Waiver by any Party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any Party of any b reach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement. Acceptance by City of any work or Services by Consultant shall not constit ute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non- defaulting Party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. Any waiver by either Party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.

7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.

Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive i n this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the Parties are cumulative and the exercise by either Party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other Party.

7.6 Legal Action.

In addition to any other rights or remedies, either Party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct, or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement.

Page-15

7.7 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.

This Section shall govern any termination of this Contract except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. City reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Consultant, except that where termination is due to the fault of the Consultant, the period of notice may be such shorter time as may be determined by the Contr act Officer. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Consultant shall immediately cease all Services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer.

Consultant shall be entitled to compensation for all Services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any Services authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section 7.3. In the ev ent of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the City need not provide the Consultant with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.

7.8 Termination for Default of Consultant.

If termination is due to the failure of the Consultant to f ulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Consultant shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the Services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Consultant for the purpose of set -off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated.

ARTICLE 8. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION

8.1 Non-liability of City Officers and Employees.

No officer or employee of the City shall be personally liable to the Consultant, or any successor in interest, in the event of any default or breach by the City or for any amount which may become due to the Consultant or to its successor, or for breach of any obligation of the terms of this Agreement.

8.2 Conflict of Interest.

Consultant covenants that neither it, nor any officer or principal of its firm, has or shall acquire any interest, directly or indirectly, which would conflict in any manner with the interests of City or which would in any way hinder Consultant’s performance of Services under this Agreement or any individual Task Order subsequently awarded.

Consultant further covenants that in the performance of this Agreement, no person having any such interest shall be employed by it as an officer, employee, agent or subcontractor without the express written consent of the Contract Officer. Consultant agrees to at all times avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of any conflicts of interest with the interests of City in the performance of this Agreement.

No officer or employee of the City shall have any financial interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement nor shall any such officer or employee participate in any decision Page-16
relating to the Agreement which effects his financial interest or the financial interest of any corporation, partnership or association in which he is, directly or indirectly, interested, in violation of any State statute or regulation. The Consultant warrants that it has not paid or given and will not pay or give any third party any money or other consideration for obtaining this Agreement.

Additionally, pursuant to Rialto Municipal Code section 2.48.145, Consultant represents that it has disclosed whether it or its officers or employees is related to any officer or employee of the City by blood or marriage within the third degree which would subject such officer or employee to the prohibition of California Government Sections 87100 et. seq., Fair Political Practices Commission Regulation Section 18702, or Government Code Section 1090. To this end, by approving this Agreement, Consultant attests under penalty of perjury, personally and on behalf of Consultant, as well its officers, representatives, that it/they have no relationship, as described above, or financial interests, as such term is define d in California Government Section 87100 et. seq., Fair Political Practices Commission Regulation Section 18702, or Government Code Section 1090, with any City of Rialto elected or appointed official or employee, except as specifically disclosed to the City in writing.

8.3 Covenant Against Discrimination.

Consultant covenants that, by and for itself, its heirs, executors, assigns, and all persons claiming under or through them, there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of any person or group of persons on account of race, color, creed, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, national origin, ancestry, or other protected class in the performance of this Agreement. Consultant shall take affirmative action to insure that applicants are employed and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color, creed, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, marital status, national origin, ancestry, or other protected class.

8.4 Unauthorized Aliens.

Consultant hereby promises and agrees to comply with all of the provisions of the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C.A. §§ 1101, et seq., as amended, and in connection therewith, shall not employ unauthorized aliens as defined therein. Should Consultant so employ such unauthorized aliens for the performance of work and/or Services covered by this Agreement, and should any liability or sanctions be imposed against City for such use of unauthorized aliens, Consultant hereby agrees to and shall reimburse City for the cost of all such liabilities or sanctions imposed, together with any and all costs, including attorney’s fees, incurred by City.

LAKE ELSINORE CITY HALL & CULTURAL CENTER SEISMIC RESTORATION Project Details for Lake
Elsinore City Hall & Cultural
Center Seismic Restoration:

City of Lake Elsinore
130 South Main Street
Lake Elsinore, CA 92530
Contact: Peter Ramey, 909.855.1720
Construction Cost: $2 Million
The Cultural Center
was originally con-
structed in 1923 as a
Methodist Church. The
building is three stories
tall. The lower level
was once used as a
general meeting room
and was complete with
a kitchen and stage.

The Main Street level
is seven steps above
the sidewalk that allows
for a grand entrance
into what once was the
main worship area. The
upper level contains a
choir loft on one end
of the church and on
the opposite end is
the pastor’s quarters
and the organ room.

The City acquired the
property in the late 80’s
and has been using
it as a museum on its
lower level and for city
council meetings on the
main worship level.
42095 Zevo Dr., Suite A15, T emecula, CA 92590 • 951.296.9110 • www.stkinc.com • [email protected] The building is constructed using load bearing hollow clay block units. These clay blocks are both unreinforced and very brittle. The building was assessed by the city’s structural engineer and it was calculated that the lateral load carrying capacity of the clay blocks was dangerously close to collapse if another strong earthquake was to occur within the vicinity. The danger with the clay blocks is that they will resist a load until the load exceeds the yield point.

Once the yield point is exceeded the block almost explodes apart.

As a result the building could experience catastrophic collapse once the blocks’ yield point is exceeded. The roof deck and the floors are constructed of wood dimensional lumber. The roof and floors are minimally tied structurally to the block walls. The lower level, since it is mostly underground, is constructed of poured in place concrete. Overall the building is in excellent condition with almost no termite / dry rot damage to the lumber.

It was the city’s goal to seismically reinforce this building with the end result being first to save lives and second to prevent to- tal collapse. The city hired a structural engineer that specializes in seismic retrofit projects and hired STK to assist in the project management / historical preservation of the building. The struc- tural reinforcement system consists of large foundations in the lower level along with poured in place concrete shear walls from the lower level to the roof deck. The concrete shear walls are tied together with large tube steel framework that not only transfer load between the shear walls but also support the block exterior walls.

Essentially the seismic retrofit consisted of constructing a concrete and steel framework on the inside so that the exterior bearing walls no longer carry the entire building load. The city also decided that since this is still an assembly occupancy, a fire sprinkler system would be a wise investment in safety.

The main challenge for the project’s construction was how to con- struct this heavy duty interior framework with out destroying most of the building’s interior along with the historic artifacts contained in the lower level. This type of precision work could only be handled by a crew of experts that are more akin to construction surgeons than carpenters. All areas that required access were carefully de- molished while salvaging as much of the architectural finishes as possible. The concrete shear walls and tube steel were all carefully fitted and installed by hand one piece at a time so that little of the existing finishes were destroyed.

STK provided the following
services for this project:
• Architectural drawings for
the reconstruction of the
demolished finishes
• Assist owner with bidding
and bid evaluation
• Review product submittals
and architectural shop
drawings
• Review and process RFI’s

BAKER FAMILY LEARNING CENTER
This 11,576 S.F. project consists of a public
library branch with a multipurpose room and
adjacent preschool. The library space requires
flexibility for the interior space, public computer
access, a children’s computer area and a public
meeting room. The multipurpose room includes a
kitchen for future meal programs. The preschool
serves a maximum of 32 children and requires
outdoor play space.

The main goal of the owner is to provide these
spaces in a LEED Silver certified building while
adhering to a strict budget. Building construction
consists of metal cold formed framing at walls,
wood roof trusses and standard concrete founda-
tion. Exterior wall finishes are primarily cement
plaster and fiber cement sided. The building
design has both flat roofs with parapets and low
slope metal roofs with a high SRI rating.

The design team has worked hard to provide
a sustainable, energy efficient building while
staying within budget. The project has a high
R-value building envelope, high SEER rated
HVAC units and low water use fixtures and
landscape. Solar panels are included to insure
lower future electrical costs.

SCOPE OF WORK

METHODOLOGY
Emerging Issues: Building Information Modeling (BIM) allows the designer to develop buildings with a three-dimensional, true-attribute approach that closely resembles the thought processes used in construction. STK is uniquely suited to such techniques due to the fact that a high level of technical knowledge is necessary to implement the modeling system. 42095 Zevo Dr., Suite A15, T emecula, CA 92590 • 951.296.9110 • www.stkinc.com • [email protected]

QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM
Principal and Project Manager Involvement: Every project at STK is carried through from inception to completion by the principal-incharge and the project manager. STK employs experienced, long- term personnel (the average employee longevity at STK is over 10 times the national average for architecture firms) who understand the architectural process, take full responsibility for their work, and coordinate thoroughly and proactively with sub-consultants.

Quality Control Procedures: STK enforces two systems of quality assurance prior to the release of plans in which the documents are meticulously and methodically reviewed and coordinated to avoid errors, conflicts, mis-references, omissions, readability and constructability. Using these systems, each element of the construction documents is tested and cross referenced in a systematic order so that mistakes and oversights are minimized to the greatest degree possible.

In addition, STK has implemented a company policy of meeting with sub-consultants prior to the submission of each progress set in order to assure clear communication, circumvent coordination issues, and to personally monitor the quality of the design package as a whole.

When it is possible, depending on the construction delivery method, STK welcomes constructability and value engineering input from the contractors and construction specialists. We have found that an amicable, team effort between the construction contractor, the owner, and the design team produces the best building products.

DESIGN QUALITY CONTROL PLAN
Results Of STK Quality Control Program: STK Inc. has produced excellent results with our in-house quality control program, as indicated by our low change order percentages and by the number of projects we are awarded by return clients. The standard of the industry for change order percentages is approximately 5%. STK has an overall change order percentage of less than 1%, with several projects less than 1/2%. Currently, over 75% of our projects are with return clients.

Process For Compliance With Project Schedule: STK emphasizes the use of detailed schedule documents with regular progress updates to complete work on time. An outline schedule is pub- lished as one of the initial tasks of the project. Updates and added detail are implemented often and regularly to identify and correct “slips” in the time line. 42095 Zevo Dr., Suite A15, T emecula, CA 92590 • 951.296.9110 • www.stkinc.com • [email protected]

The applicant hereby agrees that it will incorporate or cause to be incorporated into any contract for construction Work, or modification thereof, as defined in the regulations of the Secretary of Labor at 41 CFR Chapter 60, which is paid f or in whole or in part with funds obtained from the Federal Government or borrowed on the credit of the Federal Government pursuant to a grant, contract, loan, insurance, or guarantee, or undertaken pursuant to any Federal program involving such grant, contract, loan, insurance, or guarantee, the following equal opportunity clause:

During the performance of this contract, the contractor agrees as follows:
(1) The contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin. The contractor will take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin. Such action will include, but not be limited to the following:

Employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship. The contractor agrees to post in B-2

(2) The contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of the contractor, state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin.
(3) The contractor will not discharge or in any other manner discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because such employee or applicant has inquired about, discussed, or disclosed the compensation of the employee or applicant or another employee or applicant. This provision will not apply to instances in which an employee who has access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as a part of such employee's essential job functions discloses the compensation of such other employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to such information, unless such disclosure is in response to a formal complaint or charge, in furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or action, including an investigation conducted by the employer, or is consistent with the contractor's legal duty to furnish information.
(4) The contractor will send to each labor union or representative of Workers with which he has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice to be provided advising the said labor union or Workers' representatives of the contractor's commitments under this section, and must post copies of the notice in conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment.
