STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 8.A.
TO: City Council
FROM: Roberta Greathouse, Acting City Manager
BY: Sheri Damon, City Attorney
DATE: June 16, 2022
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION MAKING FINDINGS IN ACCORDANCE WITH AB361: HYBRID MEETINGS AND GOVERNMENT CODE
SECTION 54953 (BROWN ACT) AUTHORIZING
REMOTE/TELECONFERENCE PARTICIPATION IN CITY
MEETINGS
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution making findings under AB361 and Government Code section 54953(e) authorizing teleconference (Zoom) hybrid meetings.
BACKGROUND
On or about March 4, 2020, Governor Newsom declared a State of Emergency in the State of California pursuant to Government Code section 8625 as a result of the COVID19 pandemic and that declaration is ongoing. In the month of April 2022, Monterey County Health Officer reiterated the need for ongoing social distancing and masking due to a substantial increase in COVID infections. In the months of April and May 2022, the City of Seaside has observed an uptick in COVID cases by Seaside residents and City staff.
Government Code section 54953(e), authorizes remote teleconference meetings without complying with the notice requirements of 54953(b) and physical location of Council member participation, so long as the local agency has made appropriate findings and the state continues to be in a state of emergency.
On June 8, 2022, the Monterey Herald reported that Monterey County has been reclassified as a "High Community Spread" for COVID by the Center for Disease Control based upon the increase of cases and the increase in the use of hospital beds. Social distancing and masking indoors, especially in high traffic public places, is strongly Packet Page 9
Item No. 8.A. Page 2 of 2
encouraged.
The public should be aware, that although the City has adopted these findings, the City will exercise discretion as to when and how they will utilize the emergency provisions in the AB361 Resolution and the City's agendas will guide public participation in future meetings. When the provisions of AB361 are being utilized, the agenda will specifically outline public participation, the need for a Roll Call vote and the requirement that the City Council not conduct business if the technology is unavailable.
FISCAL IMPACT
Zoom account and on-line services are already included in the budget.

3. The City Manager and City Attorney shall ensure that all City bodies are authorized to conduct their meetings via the hybrid method, including in person and/or fully remote Zoom/teleconference meetings and are directed to take all steps to implement this Resolution including, but not limited to, conducting open and public remote meetings in accordance with the requirements of Government Code section 54953(e) and/or other applicable provisions of the Brown Act.

There will be a beach clean-up at Seaside beach, a community paint day in June, rock garden displays at various Seaside parks, and a Talent Show. The funds will be used to procure art supplies, rocks, trash bags, gloves, PVC signs for gardens, 10 X 10 garden boxes, disc jockey for their talent show, and flyers for promotion. Kindness Rocks 831 will recycle all plastic, glass, paper, and metals that are found during their beach clean-ups.
Based on the information in the application, the request meets the criteria for the Mayor's Youth Fund Policy. This is the first time that Kindness Rocks 831 has requested a donation.
FISCAL IMPACT
Packet Page 22
Item No. 8.D. Page 2 of 2
This request would be funded by a donation from the Green Waste Recovery’s donation to the Mayor’s Youth Fund. The current balance in the Mayor's Youth Fund Account is $16,600.73. If the City Council approves this request, the balance will drop to $13,600.73.
In the event that all of the funds in the Mayor's Youth Fund become exhausted, staff will keep a file of all applications. Once Green Waste issues the next round of funding, all applications on file will be processed at the next available City Council Meeting.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution declaring the month of July as Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month.
BACKGROUND
In May of 2008, the US House of Representatives announced July as Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month.
The goal of the resolution, sponsored by Rep. Albert Wynn and co-sponsored by a large bipartisan group was to:
1. Improve access to mental health treatment and services and promote public awareness of mental illness, and;
2. Name a month as the Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month to enhance public awareness of mental illness and mental illness among minorities.
The City of Seaside advocates destigmatizing mental illness, especially in communities of color, by adopting this resolution and declaring July as Bebe Moore Campbell Minority Mental Health Awareness month in the City of Seaside.

Bebe Moore Campbell
National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month
July 2022
WHEREAS, the United States House of Representatives on May 21, 2008, and the United States Senate on June 2, 2008, adopted a resolution declaring the month of July as “Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month”; and
WHEREAS, both Houses of Congress saw the need to name this month after the late Bebe Moore Campbell, a renowned African American author and founder of the Greater Los Angeles chapter of the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill (NAMI); and
WHEREAS, Every July, the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) leads the nation’s observance of the Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. The 2022 theme is “Together for Mental Health”, “an opportunity for all of us to use our voices together to advocate for mental health and access to care for all”; and
WHEREAS, Bebe Moore Campbell spent countless hours and days meeting with Representatives and Senators to highlight the need for a special month to highlight the issue of disparities in mental health treatment for African Americans and other people of color that often led to misdiagnosing and culturally incompetent treatment of members of Black Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) communities; and WHEREAS, Bebe Moore Campbell, in the founding of the Greater Los Angeles Chapter of NAMI, utilized that chapter to further educate the public at large and BIPOC communities specifically about the realities of mental illness in those communities, the importance of mental health treatment and care and reduce the stigma and cultural distrust of any government services that often deterred these communities from seeking such treatment; and
WHEREAS, The Village Project, Inc., a City of Seaside-based organization, continues to be a lead organization in the California Reducing Disparities Project (CRDP), helping to bring about State-recognized Culturally/Community Defined Evidence Practices (CDEP’s) as a means of providing effective culturally-and identity-informed services for members of BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities; and WHEREAS, the month of July, especially, but for all months, generally, should serve to highlight the ongoing need for system change which will necessarily involve the recruitment, development and retention of many more mental health practitioners and programs from the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities to carry out this still much needed work in these historically unserved, underserved and inappropriately served communities.
NOW THEREFORE, I, The Honorable Ian N. Oglesby, Mayor of the City of Seaside, California, on behalf of the City Council do hereby proclaim July 2022 as Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month in the City of Seaside. Ca.

SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION MODIFYING THE CITY MANAGER
SALARY EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2022
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution increasing the salary for the City Manager effective July 1, 2022.
BACKGROUND
Following the resignation of City Manager, Craig Malin, the City conducted a recruitment to fill the vacancy. The City's recruiter conducted a salary survey and determined that the City's salary was not competitive. As a result, the City Council authorized an increase in the salary from $210,000 annually to $250,000 annually. The increased salary will go into effect on July 1, 2022, to coincide with the proposed start date of the new City Manager.
FISCAL IMPACT
The salary increase will increase the City Manager's operating budget by $40,000.00 in fiscal year 2022-2023. Staff recommends reviewing the City Manager's budget at the annual mid-year budget review meeting and adjusting the budget at that time, if necessary.

Patrick Grogan, Associate Engineer
DATE: June 16, 2022
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN ON-CALL CONSULTANT
LIST FOR HYDROGEOLOGICAL SERVICES
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving the following firms as qualified to provide On-Call hydrogeological services:
1. Daniel B. Stephens & Associates, Inc.
2. Dudek, Inc.
3. Montgomery & Associates, Inc.
BACKGROUND
The City requires hydrogeological services to support City priorities including the delivery of Capital Improvement Projects. These services include but are not limited to:
general hydrogeological services by a hydrogeologist certified by the California Board of Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors, and Geologists; water well permitting, drilling, and design; well and aquifer testing and trouble shooting; and performing groundwater resource studies. Staff do not have the specialized expertise to perform these types of services. There is a need for these services due to the capital improvement program projects planned for the next few years.
City staff released a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) on April 14, 2022, seeking qualified firms or individuals to provide hydrogeological services within the City of Seaside.
Packet Page 40
Item No. 8.G. Page 2 of 2
On May 20, 2022, the City received Statement of Qualifications (SOQs) from three firms. City staff reviewed the SOQs based upon criteria presented in the RFQ and selected the following qualified firms to meet the City’s needs:
1. Daniel B. Stephens & Associates, Inc.
2. Dudek, Inc.
3. Montgomery & Associates, Inc.
The On-Call hydrogeological services list will have a term of three years with the option to issue one-year extensions twice at the discretion of the City Manager. If approved, the on-call consultant(s) may or may not be called upon by the City to provide services.
To retain professional services from a consultant, staff would secure a proposal from one or more consultants and then negotiate the scope, schedule, and fee with the selected consultant based upon their hourly fee schedule and the project scope of work.
Staff would bring professional services agreements with the selected consultant to the City Council for approval if the contract amount exceeds the authorization of the City Manager.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact with approval of the On-Call consultant list. Hydrogeological services would be paid for from an approved project's budget.

SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PLANS AND
SPECIFICATIONS AND AWARDING A CONSTRUCTION
AGREEMENT WITH GLOBAL MODULAR, INC. FOR THE
CONSTRUCTION, DELIVERY, AND INSTALLATION OF A NEW
MODULAR BUILDING FOR THE NEW CITY HALL STAFF TRAILER
FOR AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $279,000.00.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve a resolution:
1. Approving the plans and specifications;
2. Awarding a construction contract agreement with Global Modular, Inc. for an amount not to exceed $279,000.00;
3. Establishing a 5% contingency for a total project construction amount not to exceed $293,000.00; and
4. Authorizing the City Manager to execute the construction agreement, and approve any amendments, extensions, and change orders until completion of the project in accordance with the plans and specifications up to the total project construction amount, for the New City Hall Staff Trailer Project.
BACKGROUND
In order to provide adequate accommodation for City of Seaside staff, additional office space is required for staff with an office or cubicle currently located within City Hall. The New City Hall Staff Trailer Project includes the construction, delivery, and placement of a new modular office space for up to ten full-time City of Seaside employees. The 60 foot long by 24 foot wide trailer will be constructed off site, delivered by the contractor, and placed south of the existing Engineering division trailer and Police Investigative Unit division trailer. ADA-compliant access will be provided by expanding the existing Packet Page 45
Item No. 8.H. Page 2 of 3
decking and hand railing to the new modular location as part of the scope of work.
The design was completed and the project was released for construction bids on May 12, 2022, and bids were opened on June 1, 2022. Bids were received from two contractors as follows:
Contractor Bid
Global Modular Inc. $279,000.00
Atlas Performance Industries, Inc. $260,321.17
Atlas Performance Industries, Inc. had the lowest bid of $260,321.17. However, they were found to be unresponsive because they did not submit the required surety letter or the insurer letter. Based upon evaluation of both of the contractor bid documents received, it has been determined that the lowest responsible and responsive bid is from Global Modular Inc., with a total base bid of $279,000.00. Global Modular has completed similar work projects to the New City Hall Staff Trailer Project for other agencies. Staff recommends a construction agreement for this project be awarded to Global Modular Inc.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed agreement with Global Modular, Inc. is a not to exceed amount of $279,000.00. In addition, a construction agreement contingency of approximately 5%, or $14,000.00 is necessary for expenses from unforeseeable issues that may arise during construction.
At mid year of this fiscal year, the fiscal year 2021/22 budget was adjusted to include $382,800.00 to account number 344-8910-9562 to fund the New City Hall Staff Trailer Project.
Staff recommends adopting a resolution (attachment 1) approving the plans and specifications (attachment 2) for the New City Hall Staff Trailer Project, awarding a construction agreement (attachment 3) to Global Modular, Inc. for an amount not to exceed of $279,000.00; establishing approximately 5% construction contingency for a total project construction amount not to exceed of $293,000.00; and, authorizing the City Manager to execute the construction agreement and approve any amendments, extensions, and change orders until completion of the project in accordance with the plans and specifications, up to the total project construction amount.

A. Bids must be full, complete, clearly written and using the required forms. Bidders shall make any change in the Bid by crossing out the original entry, entering and initialing the new entry.

Contractor hereby grants to Owner for a period of One Year following the date of Final Acceptance of the Work completed, or such longer period specified in the Contract Documents, 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 in connection with the Work.
Neither final payment nor use nor occupancy of the Work performed by the Contractor shall constitute an acceptance of Work not done in accordance with this Guaranty or relieve Contractor of liability in respect to any express warranties or responsibilities for faulty materials or workmanship.
Contractor shall remedy any defects in the Work and pay for any damage resulting therefrom, which shall appear within two years, or longer if specified, from the date of Final Acceptance of the Work completed.
If within One Year after the date of Final Acceptance of the Work completed, or such longer period of time as may be prescribed by laws or regulations, or by the terms of Contract Documents, any Work is found to be Defective, Contractor shall promptly, without cost to Owner and in accordance with Owner’s written instructions, correct such Defective Work. Contractor shall remove any Defective Work rejected by Owner and replace it with Work that is not Defective, and satisfactorily correct or remove and replace any damage to other Work or the work of others resulting therefrom.

GENERAL CONDITIONS
ARTICLE 1 - INTERPRETATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
1.01 Interpretation Of Documents
A. Contract Documents are complementary; what is called for by one is as binding as if called for by all.
B. Individual Contract Documents subdivide at first level into Articles, and then into paragraphs.
1.02 Order Of Precedence Of Documents
A. In the case of discrepancy or ambiguity in the Contract Documents, the following order of precedence shall prevail:
1. Modifications in inverse chronological order (i.e., most recent first), and in the same order as specific portions they are modifying;
2. Agreement Forms (Document 00 5200), and terms and conditions referenced therein;
3. Supplementary General Conditions (Document 00 7201 et seq), if included;
4. General Conditions (Document 00 7200);
5. Division 1 Specifications, if included;
6. Drawings and Technical Specifications (Division 2 and above);
7. Written numbers over figures, unless obviously incorrect;
8. Figured dimensions over scaled dimensions;
9. Large-scale Drawings over small-scale Drawings.
B. Any conflict between Drawings and Technical Specifications (Division 2 and above) will be resolved in favor of the document of the latest date (i.e., the most recent document), and if the dates are the same or not determinable, then in favor of Specifications.
C. Any conflict between a bill or list of materials shown in the Contract Documents and the actual quantities required to complete Work required by Contract Documents, will be resolved in favor of the actual quantities.
D. All Technical Specifications included in the Project manual shall be included within the Contract Documents unless identified otherwise.
ARTICLE 2 - PRE-BID INVESTIGATIONS
2.01 Pre-Bid Investigations Required
A. Prior to and as a condition of submitting a Bid and executing Document 00 5200 (Agreement), Contractor shall make reasonable efforts to investigate fully the Work of the Contract. Contractor shall visit the Site, examine thoroughly and understand fully the nature and extent of the Contract Documents, Work, Site, locality, actual conditions and as-built conditions.
B. Contractor’s investigation shall include, without limitation, requesting and thoroughly examining of all reports of exploration and tests of subsurface conditions, as-built drawings, drawings, product specification(s) or reports, made available by Owner for contracting purposes or during Contractor’s pre-bid investigations, of existing above ground and (to the extent applicable) below ground conditions (together, “Existing Conditions Data”), including, as applicable, Underground Facilities, geotechnical data, as-built data, utility surveys, record documents of all types, hazardous materials surveys, or similar materials which may appear or be referenced in the Project Manual or the in the Contract Documents, and all local conditions, and federal, state and local laws and regulations that in any manner may affect cost, progress, performance or furnishing of Work or which relate to any aspect of the means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of construction to be employed by Contractor and safety precautions and programs incident thereto.
C. Contractor’s investigations shall consider fully the fact that Existing Conditions Data is in many cases based on information furnished to Owner by others (e.g., the prior owner or builders), and that due to their age or their chain of custody since preparation, may not meet current industry standards for accuracy. Contractor shall also: (i.) provide Owner with prompt written notice of all Packet Page 111
May 2022
General Conditions 00 7200 - 2 City of Seaside
New City Hall Staff Trailer
conflicts, errors, ambiguities, or discrepancies of any type, that it discovered in or among the Contract Documents and the Existing Conditions Data, and (ii.) subject to Owner’s approval, conduct any such additional or supplementary examinations, investigations, explorations, tests, studies and data compilations, concerning conditions (surface, subsurface, and Underground Facilities) at or contiguous to the Site or otherwise, which Contractor may deem necessary in order to perform and furnish the Work in accordance with the terms and conditions of Contract Documents.
D. During performance of the Contract, Contractor will be charged with knowledge of all information that it should have learned in performing these pre-bid investigations and other obligations, and shall not be entitled to Change Orders (time or compensation) due to any information, error, inconsistency, omission, or conditions that Contractor should have known as a part of this Work.
Contractor shall be responsible for the resultant losses, including, without limitation, the cost of correcting Defective Work.
2.02 Limited Reliance Permitted On Owner’s Existing Conditions Data A. Regarding aboveground and as-built conditions shown on the Contract Documents or supplied by Owner, such information has been compiled in good faith, however, Owner does not expressly or impliedly warrant or represent that such information is correctly shown or indicated, or otherwise complete for construction purposes. Contractor must independently verify such information as part of its pre-bid investigations, and where conditions are not reasonably verifiable or discrepancies are identified, bring such matters to Owner’s attention through written question issued during the bid period. In executing Document 00 5200 (Agreement), Contractor shall rely on the results of its own independent investigation and shall not rely on Owner-supplied information regarding aboveground conditions and as-built conditions, and Contractor shall accept full responsibility for its verification work sufficient to complete the Work as intended.
B. Regarding subsurface conditions other than Underground Facilities shown on the Contract Documents or otherwise supplied by Owner, Contractor may rely only upon the general accuracy of actual reported depths, actual reported character of materials, actual reported soil types, actual reported water conditions, or actual obstructions shown or indicated in the Contract Documents.
Owner is not responsible for the completeness of any subsurface condition information, Contractor’s conclusions or opinions drawn from any subsurface condition information, or subsurface conditions that are not specifically shown. (For example, Owner is not responsible for soil conditions in areas contiguous to areas where a subsurface condition is shown.)
2.03 Pre-Bid Investigation Requirements For Excavation And Utilities Relocation Projects A. As part of its pre-bid investigations for Projects involving excavation and/or relocation of existing utilities, Contractor shall make reasonable efforts to verify information regarding Underground Facilities, including but not limited to, requesting additional information or verification of information as necessary.
B. Because of the nature and location of Owner and the Project, the existence of Underground Facilities is deemed inherent in the Work of the Contract, as is the fact that Underground Facilities are not always accurately shown or completely shown on as-built records, both as to their depth and location. Contractor shall, therefore, take care to note the existence and potential existence of Underground Facilities, in particular, above and below grade structures, drainage lines, storm drains, sewers, water, gas, electrical, chemical, hot water, and other similar items and utilities. Contractor shall carefully consider all supplied information, request additional information Contractor may deem necessary, and visually inspect the Site for above ground indications of Underground Facilities (such as, for example not by way of limitation, the existence of existing service laterals, appurtenances or other types of utilities, indicated by the presence of an underground transmission main or other visible facilities, such as buildings, new asphalt, meters and junction boxes, on or adjacent to the Site). Contractor shall also consider local underground conditions and typical practices for Underground Facilities, either through its own direct knowledge or through its subcontractors, and fully consider this knowledge in assessing the existing information and the reasonableness of its reliance.

ARTICLE 3 - SUBCONTRACTORS
3.01 Subcontractor Listing Law
A. Contractor shall comply with the Subcontractor Listing law, California Public Contract Code §§4101 et seq. Contractor shall not substitute any other person or firm in place of any Subcontractor listed in the Bid except as may be allowed by law.
B. Subcontractors shall not assign or transfer their subcontracts or permit them to be performed by any other contractor without Owner’s written approval. At Owner’s request, Contractor shall provide Owner with a complete copy of all executed subcontracts or final commercial agreements with Subcontractors and/or suppliers.
3.02 Subcontracts
A. Subcontract agreements shall preserve and protect the rights of Owner under the Contract Documents so that subcontracting will not prejudice such rights. To the extent of the Work to be performed by a Subcontractor, Contractor shall require the Subcontractor’s written agreement (1) to be bound to the terms of Contract Documents and (2) to assume vis-à-vis Contractor all the obligations and responsibilities that Contractor assumes toward Owner under the Contract Documents. (These agreements include for example, and not by way of limitation, all warranties, claims procedures and rules governing submittals of all types to which Contractor is subject under the Contract Documents.)
B. Contractor shall provide for the assignment to Owner of all rights any Subcontractor (of any tier) may have against any manufacturer, supplier, or distributor for breach of warranties and guarantees relating to the Work performed by the Subcontractor under the Contract Documents.
Subcontracts shall provide and acknowledge Owner as an intended third-party beneficiary of each subcontract and supply contract (of any tier).
ARTICLE 4 - DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS
4.01 Intent Of Drawings And Specifications
A. Contractor shall interpret words or phrases used to describe Work (including services), materials, or equipment that have well-known technical or construction industry or trade meaning in accordance with that meaning. Drawings’ intent specifically includes the intent to depict construction that complies with all applicable laws, codes and standards.
B. As part of the “Work,” Contractor shall provide all labor, materials, equipment, machinery, tools, facilities, services, employee training and testing, hoisting facilities, Shop Drawings, storage, testing, security, transportation, disposal, the securing of all necessary or required field dimensions, the cutting or patching of existing materials, notices, permits, documents, reports, agreements and any other items required or necessary to timely and fully complete Work described and the results intended by Contract Documents and, in particular, Drawings and Specifications. Divisions and Specification Sections and the identification on any Drawings shall not control Contractor in dividing Work among Subcontractors or suppliers or delineating the Work to be performed by any specific trade.
C. Contractor shall perform reasonably implied parts of Work as “incidental work” although absent from Drawings and Specifications. Incidental work includes any work not shown on Drawings or described in Specifications that is necessary or normally or customarily required as a part of the Work shown on Drawings or described in Specifications. Incidental work includes any work necessary or required to make each installation satisfactory, legally operable, functional, and consistent with the intent of Drawings and Specifications or the requirements of Contract Documents. Contractor shall perform incidental work without extra cost to Owner. Incidental work shall be treated as if fully described in Specifications and shown on Drawings, and the expense of incidental work shall be included in price Bid and Contract Sum.
4.02 Checking Of Drawings And Specifications
A. Before undertaking each part of Work, Contractor shall carefully study and compare Contract Documents and check and verify pertinent figures shown in the Contract Documents and all Packet Page 113
May 2022
General Conditions 00 7200 - 4 City of Seaside

applicable field measurements. Contractor shall be responsible for any errors that might have been avoided by such comparison. Figures shown on Drawings shall be followed; Contractor shall not scale measurements. Contractor shall promptly report to Owner, in writing, any conflict, error, ambiguity or discrepancy that Contractor may discover. Contractor shall obtain a written interpretation or clarification from Owner before proceeding with any Work affected thereby.
Contractor shall provide Owner with a follow-up correspondence every ten Days until it receives a satisfactory interpretation or clarification.
4.03 Interpretation Of Drawings And Specifications
A. A typical or representative detail on Drawings shall constitute the standard for workmanship and material throughout corresponding parts of Work. Where necessary, and where reasonably inferable from Drawings, Contractor shall adapt such representative detail for application to such corresponding parts of Work. The details of such adaptation shall be subject to prior approval by Owner. Repetitive features shown in outline on Drawings shall be in exact accordance with corresponding features completely shown.
B. Should any discrepancy appear or any misunderstanding arise as to the import of anything contained in Drawings and Specifications, or should Contractor have any questions or requests relating to Drawings or Specifications, Contractor shall refer the matter to Owner, in writing, with a copy to the Architect/Engineer. Owner will issue with reasonable promptness written responses, clarifications or interpretations as Owner may determine necessary, which shall be consistent with the intent of and be reasonably inferable from Contract Documents. Such written clarifications or interpretations shall be binding upon Contractor. If Contractor believes that a written response, clarification or interpretation justifies an adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, Contractor shall give Owner prompt written notice. If the parties are unable to agree to the amount or extent of the adjustment, if any, then Contractor shall perform the Work in conformance with Owner’s response, clarification, or interpretation and may make a written claim for the adjustment as provided in Article 12.
C. The following general specifications shall apply wherever in the Specifications, or in any directions given by Owner in accordance with or supplementing Specifications, it is provided that Contractor shall furnish materials or manufactured articles or shall do Work for which no detailed specifications are shown. Materials or manufactured articles shall be of the best grade, in quality and workmanship, obtainable in the market from firms of established good reputation. If not ordinarily carried in stock, the materials or manufactured articles shall conform to industry standards for first class materials or articles of the kind required, with due consideration of the use to which they are to be put. Work shall conform to the usual standards or codes, such as those cited herein, for first class work of the kind required. Contractor shall specify in writing to Owner the materials to be used or Work to be performed under this Paragraph ten Business Days prior to furnishing such materials or performing such Work.
4.04 Use Of Drawings And Specifications.
A. Drawings, Specifications and other Contract Documents were prepared for use for Work of Contract Documents only. No part of Contract Documents shall be used for any other construction or for any other purpose except with the written consent of Owner. Any unauthorized use of Contract Documents is prohibited and at the sole liability of the user.

In Owner’s sole discretion, Owner may elect to instead withhold a portion of any progress payment for unacceptable compliance with contract requirements for such schedules.
C. Owner’s acceptance of Contractor’s schedules will not create any duty of care or impose on Owner any responsibility for the sequencing, scheduling or progress of Work nor will it interfere with or relieve Contractor from Contractor’s full responsibility therefore.

8.03 Contractor To Supply Sufficient Workers And Materials A. Unless otherwise required by Owner under the terms of Contract Documents, Contractor shall at all times keep on the Site materials and employ qualified workers sufficient to prosecute Work at a rate and in a sequence and manner necessary to complete Work within the Contract Time.
This obligation shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding disputes or claims of any type.
B. At any time during progress of Work should Contractor directly or indirectly (through Subcontractors) refuse, neglect, or be unable to supply sufficient materials or employ qualified workers to prosecute the Work as required, then Owner may require Contractor to accelerate the Work and/or furnish additional qualified workers or materials as Owner may consider necessary, at no cost to Owner. If Contractor does not comply with the notice within three Business Days of date of service thereof, Owner shall have the right (but not a duty) to provide materials and qualified workers to finish the Work or any affected portion of Work, as Owner may elect. Owner may, at its discretion, exclude Contractor from the Site, or portions of the Site or separate work elements during the time period that Owner exercises this right. Owner will deduct from moneys due or which may thereafter become due under the Contract Documents, the sums necessary to meet expenses thereby incurred and paid to persons supplying materials and doing Work.
Owner will deduct from funds or appropriations set aside for purposes of Contract Documents the amount of such payments and charge them to Contractor as if paid to Contractor. Contractor shall remain liable for resulting delay, including liquidated damages and indemnification of Owner from claims of others.
C. Exercise by Owner of the rights conferred upon Owner in this subparagraph is entirely discretionary on the part of Owner. Owner shall have no duty or obligation to exercise the rights referred to in this subparagraph and its failure to exercise such rights shall not be deemed an approval of existing Work progress or a waiver or limitation of Owner’s right to exercise such rights in other concurrent or future similar circumstances. (The rights conferred upon Owner under this subparagraph are, like all other such rights, cumulative to Owner’s other rights under any provision of the Contract Documents.)
8.04 Contractor To Maintain Project Record Documents

A. Contractor shall not be allowed an extension of Contract Time because of any delay in the performance of Work attributable to the exercise by Owner of its rights and remedies under this Article. Where Owner exercises its rights under this Article, it retains and may still exercise all other rights it has by law or under the Contract Documents including, but not limited to, the right to terminate Contractor’s right to proceed with the Work under the Contract Documents for cause and/or make a claim or back charge where a Change Order cannot be agreed upon.
B. Inspection by Owner or its authorized agents or representatives shall not relieve Contractor of its obligation to have furnished material and workmanship in accordance with Contract Documents.
Payment for Work completed through periodic progress payments, final payment or otherwise shall not operate to waive Owner’s right to require full compliance with Contract Documents and shall in no way be deemed as acceptance of any defective Work paid therefor. Contractor’s obligation to complete the Work in accordance with Contract Documents shall be absolute, unless Owner agrees otherwise in writing.
9.06 Proof Of Compliance Of Contract Provisions
A. In order that Owner may determine whether Contractor has complied or is complying with requirements of Contract Documents not readily enforceable through inspection and tests of Work and materials, Contractor shall at any time, when requested, submit to Owner properly authenticated documents or other satisfactory proofs of compliance with all applicable requirements.
B. Before commencing any portion of Work, Contractor shall inform Owner in writing as to time and place at which Contractor wishes to commence Work, and nature of Work to be done, in order that proper provision for inspection of Work may occur, and to assure measurements necessary for record and payment. Information shall be given to Owner a reasonable time in advance of time at which Contractor proposes to begin Work, so that Owner may complete necessary preliminary work without inconvenience or delay to Contractor.
9.07 Correction Period And Project Warranty Period:
A. If within one year after the date of Final Acceptance, or such longer period of time as may be prescribed by laws, regulations or by the terms of Contract Documents or any extended warranty or guaranty, any Work (completed or incomplete) is found to be Defective, Contractor shall promptly without cost to Owner and in accordance with Owner’s written instructions, correct such Defective Work. Contractor shall remove any Defective Work rejected by Owner and replace it with Work that is not Defective, and satisfactorily correct or remove and replace any damage to other Work or the work of others resulting therefrom. If Contractor fails to promptly comply with the terms of such instructions, or in an emergency where delay would cause serious risk of loss or damage, Owner may have the Defective Work corrected or the rejected Work removed and replaced. Contractor shall pay for all claims, costs, losses and damages caused by or resulting from such removal and replacement. Where Contractor fails to correct Defective Work, or defects are discovered outside the correction period, Owner shall have all rights and remedies granted by law.
B. In special circumstances where a part of the Work is occupied or a particular item of equipment is placed in continuous service before Final Acceptance of all the Work, the correction period for that part of Work or that item may start to run from an earlier date if so provided by Change Order.
C. Where Defective Work or rejected Work (and damage to other Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected, removed, or replaced under this provision after the commencement of the correction period, the correction period hereunder with respect to such Work shall be extended for an additional period of one year after such correction or removal and replacement has been satisfactorily completed.

9.08 No Waiver
A. Neither recordation of Final Acceptance nor final certificate for payment nor provision of the Contract nor partial or entire use or occupancy of premises by Owner shall constitute acceptance of Work not done in accordance with Contract Documents nor relieve Contractor of liability in respect to express warranties or responsibility for faulty materials or workmanship.
B. If, after installation, operation, or use of materials or equipment to be provided under Contract proves to be unsatisfactory to Owner, Owner shall have right to operate and use materials or equipment until said materials and equipment can, without damage to Owner, be taken out of service for correction or replacement. Period of use of Defective materials or equipment pending correction or replacement shall in no way decrease guarantee period required for acceptable corrected or replaced items of materials or equipment.

ARTICLE 10 - MODIFICATIONS OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
10.01 Owner’s Right To Direct Changed Work.
A. Owner may, without notice to the sureties and without invalidating the Contract, make changes in the Work (“Changed Work”), including without limitation: alterations, deviations, additions to, or deletions from Contract Documents; increase or decrease the quantity of any item or portion of the Work; expand, reduce or otherwise change the Contract Time; delete any item or portion of the Work; and require extra Work. Contractor shall perform such Work under applicable provisions of the Contract Documents, unless specifically provided otherwise at the time the change is ordered. In the case of any ordered extra Work, Owner reserves the right to furnish all or portions of associated labor, material, and equipment, which Contractor shall accept and use without payment for costs, markup, profit, or otherwise for such Owner-furnished labor, materials, and equipment.
B. If Changed Work is of such a nature as to increase or decrease the time or cost of any part of Work, price fixed in Contract shall be increased or decreased by amount as the Contractor and Owner may agree upon as reasonable and proper allowance for increase or decrease in cost of Work using the cost guidelines set forth in this Article, and absent such agreement, then as Owner may direct (with Contractor retaining its rights under Article 12 herein).
10.02 Required Documentation For Changed Work
A. Changes affecting the Contract Time or Contract Sum of the Work shall be set forth in a written Change Order or Change Directive that shall specify:
1. The Work performed in connection with the change to be made;
2. The amount of the adjustment of the Contract Sum, if any, and the basis for compensation for the Work ordered; and
3. The extent of the adjustment in the Contract Time, if any.
B. A Change Order or Change Directive will become effective when signed by Owner, notwithstanding that Contractor has not signed it. A Change Order will become effective without Contractor’s signature, provided Owner indicates same thereon (by indicating it as a “unilateral change order”).
C. All changes in any plans and specifications approved by any authority with jurisdiction may also require addenda or change orders approved by that authority.
D. Where Owner requests, a performance bond rider covering the changed Work must be executed and delivered to Owner before proceeding with the changed Work or shortly in time thereafter.

10.03 Procedures And Pricing Of Changed Work
A. Procedures for changed work and pricing of changed work, claims and all forms of extra compensation, are set forth in Section 01 2600 (Modification Procedures).
ARTICLE 11 - TIME ALLOWANCES
11.01 Time Allowances
A. Time is of the essence. Contract Time may only be changed by Change Order, and all time limits stated in the Contract Documents are to mean that time is of the essence.
11.02 Excusable Delay And Inexcusable Delay Defined.
A. Excusable Delay. Subject to the provisions on Notice of Delay below, Contract Time may be adjusted in an amount equal to the time lost due to:
1. Changes in the Work ordered by Owner (“Changes”);
2. Acts or neglect by Owner, Architect, any Owner Representative, utility owners or other contractors performing other work, not permitted or provided for in the Contract Documents, provided that Contractor has performed its responsibilities under the Contract Documents (including but not limited to pre-bid investigations) (“Acts or Neglect”); or
3. Fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions beyond the parameters otherwise set forth in this Article, earthquakes, civil or labor disturbances, or acts of God (together, “force majeure events”), provided damages resulting therefrom are not the result of Contractor’s failure to protect the Work as required by Contract Documents (“Force Majeure”).
B. Inexcusable Delay. Contract Time shall not be extended for any period of time where Contractor (and/or any Subcontractor) is delayed or prevented from completing any part of the Work due to a cause that is within Contractor’s risk or responsibility under the Contract Documents. Delays attributable to or within the control of a Subcontractor, or its subcontractors, or supplier, are deemed delays within the control of Contractor.
C. Float. Float shall be treated as a Project resource. Contractor shall not be entitled to a time extension for impacts that consume float, but do not impact the critical path.
11.03 Notice Of Delay
A. Within seven Days of the beginning of any delay (excepting adverse weather delays), Contractor shall notify Owner in writing, by submitting a notice of delay that shall describe the anticipated delays resulting from the delay event in question. If Contractor requests an extension of time, Contractor shall submit a TIE within ten days of the notice of delay. Owner will determine all claims and adjustments in the Contract Time. No claim for an adjustment in the Contract Time will be valid and such claim will be waived if not submitted in accordance with the requirements of this subparagraph. In cases of substantial compliance with the seven-day notice requirement here (but not to exceed twenty-one days from the beginning of the delay event), Owner may in its sole discretion recognize a claim for delay accompanied with the proper TIE, provided Contractor also shows good faith and a manifest lack of prejudice to Owner from the late notice.
11.04 Compensable Time Extensions
A. Subject to other applicable provisions of the Contract Documents, Contractor may be entitled to adjustment in Contract Sum in addition to Contract Time for:
1. Excusable delay caused solely by Changes in the Work ordered by Owner, as provided above, and/or
2. Excusable delay caused solely by Acts or Neglect by Owner or other person, as provided above.
Packet Page 125
May 2022
General Conditions 00 7200 - 16 City of Seaside
New City Hall Staff Trailer
11.05 Non-Compensable Time Extensions
A. Subject to other applicable provisions of the Contract Documents, Contractor may be entitled to adjustment in Contract Time only, without adjustment in Contract Sum, for
1. Periods of excusable delay caused solely by weather or Force Majeure events as provided above in this Article, or
2. Periods of concurrent delay, where delay results from two or more causes, one of which is compensable (resulting from Changes or Acts or Neglect as set forth above in this Article), and the other of which is non-compensable or inexcusable, such as: acts or neglect of Contractor, Subcontractors or others for whom Contractor is responsible; other acts, omissions and conditions which would not entitle Contractor to adjustment in Contract Time; adverse weather; and/or actions of Force Majeure as provided above in this Article.
11.06 Adverse Weather
A. Adverse weather delays may be allowed only if the number of workdays of adverse weather exceeds the parameters listed or referenced immediately below in this subparagraph and Contractor proves that adverse weather actually caused delays to work on the critical path.
Contractor shall give written notice of intent to claim an adverse weather day within one Day of the adverse weather day occurring.
B. Claims for extension of time for rain delay will not be granted unless the number of days work is prevented by rain exceeds 110% of the average number of rain days expected for the period of the Contract Time, based on the records of the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) weather station closest to the Project Site, as measured and reported by NOAA. (For example, for California, Oregon and Washington, these figures are contained in the “>=0.10 inch” column at the applicable weather station’s “General Climate Summary Table” for “Precipitation” at http://www.wrcc.dri.edu/Climsum.html), pro-rated in the individual month Contractor starts and finishes Work. Delays due to adverse weather conditions will not be allowed for weather conditions that fall within these parameters.
C. In order to qualify as an adverse weather delay with respect to the foregoing parameters, (i.) daily rainfall must exceed .1 inch, and/or (ii.) daily snowfall must exceed 1.0 inch or more, at the NOAA station located closest to the Project site, as measured and reported by NOAA. Notwithstanding these allowances, Contractor shall at all times employ all available mitigation measures to enable Work to continue, Contractor shall take reasonable steps to mitigate potential weather delays, such as dewatering the Site, lime treatment, and covering Work and material that could be affected adversely by weather. Failure to do so shall be cause for Owner to not grant a time extension due to adverse weather, where Contractor could have avoided or mitigated the potential delay by exercising reasonable care.
D. Contractor shall include the foregoing precipitation parameters as a monthly activity in its progress schedule. As Work on the critical path is affected by precipitation, Contractor shall notify Owner and request that the days be moved to the affected activities. Any adverse weather days remaining shall be considered Project float available to either Owner or Contractor.
E. Adverse weather delay for precipitation shall be recognized for the actual period of time Contractor proves it was delayed by precipitation exceeding the specified parameters. For example, and not by way of limitation, if precipitation exceeding the specified parameters does not in fact delay Contractor’s progress on the critical path, then no time extension shall be recognized; and conversely, if Contractor proves to Owner’s satisfaction that precipitation exceeding the specified parameters causes delay to Contractor for a period longer than the number of precipitation days incurred (e.g., if it rains or snows during grading work), then Contractor shall be entitled to a time extension equal to the actual period of such delay.
F. During unfavorable weather, wet ground, or other unsuitable construction conditions, Contractor shall employ best practices to protect the Work, manage the construction site and rainwater during inclement weather. Persons performing the Work shall examine surfaces to receive their Work and shall report in writing to Contractor, with copy to Owner representative and the Architect conditions detrimental to the Work. Failure to examine and report discrepancies makes Packet Page 126
May 2022

the Contractor responsible, at no increase in Contract Sum, for corrections Owner may require.
Commencement of Work constitutes acceptance of surface.
11.07 Liquidated Damages
A. Time is of the essence. Execution of Contract Documents by Contractor shall constitute its acknowledgement that Owner will actually sustain damages in the form of Contract administration expenses (such as Project management and consultant expenses) in the amount fixed in the Contract Documents for each and every Day during which completion of Work required is delayed beyond expiration of time fixed for completion plus extensions of time allowed pursuant to provisions hereof.
B. Contractor and Owner agree that because of the nature of the Project, it would be impractical or extremely difficult to fix the amount of such actual damages incurred by Owner because of a delay in completion of all or any part of the Work. Contractor and Owner agree that specified measures of liquidated damages shall be presumed to be the amount of such damages actually sustained by Owner, and that because of the nature of the Project, it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages.
C. Liquidated damages for delay shall cover administrative, overhead, interest on bonds, and general loss of public use damages suffered by Owner as a result of delay. Liquidated damages shall not cover the cost of completion of the Work, damages resulting from Defective Work, lost revenues or costs of substitute facilities, or damages suffered by others who then seek to recover their damages from Owner (for example, delay claims of other contractors, subcontractors, tenants, or other third-parties), and defense costs thereof. Owner may deduct from any money due or to become due to Contractor subsequent to time for completion of entire Work and extensions of time allowed pursuant to provisions hereof, a sum representing then-accrued liquidated damages.
ARTICLE 12 - CLAIMS BY CONTRACTOR
12.01 Obligation to File Claims for Disputed Work
A. Should it appear to Contractor that the Work to be performed or any of the matters relative to the Contract Documents are not satisfactorily detailed or explained therein, or should any questions arise as to the meaning or intent of the Contract Documents, or should any dispute arise regarding the true value of any work performed, work omitted, extra work that the Contractor may be required to perform, time extensions, payment to the Contractor during performance of this Contract, performance of the Contract, and/or compliance with Contract procedures, or should Contractor otherwise seek extra time or compensation FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER, then Contractor shall first follow procedures set forth in the Contract (including but not limited to other Articles of this Document 00 7200 and Section 01 2600.)

B. Notwithstanding and pending the resolution of any claim or dispute, Contractor shall diligently prosecute the disputed work to final completion in accordance with Owner’s determination.
C. After their submission, claims less than $375,000 shall also be subject to the Local Agency Disputes Act.
12.04 Compliance
A. The provisions of this Article 12 constitute a non-judicial claim settlement procedure that, pursuant to Section 930.2 of the California Government Code, shall constitute a condition precedent to submission of a valid Government Code Claim under the California Government Code. Contractor shall bear all costs incurred in the preparation, submission and administration of a claim. Any claims presented in accordance with the Government Code must affirmatively indicate Contractor’s prior compliance with the claims procedure herein and the previous dispositions under Paragraph 12.3 above of the claims asserted. Pursuant to Government Code Section 930.2, the one-year period in Government Code section 911.2 shall be reduced to 150 days from either accrual of the cause of action, substantial completion or termination of the contract, whichever occurs first; in all other respects, the Government Code shall apply unchanged.
B. Failure to submit and administer claims as required in Article 12 shall waive Contractor’s right to claim on any specific issues not included in a timely submitted claim. Claim(s) or issue(s) not raised in a timely protest and timely claim submitted under this Article 12 may not be asserted in any subsequent litigation, Government Code Claim, or legal action.
C. Owner shall not be deemed to waive any provision under this Article 12, if at Owner’s sole discretion, a claim is administered in a manner not in accord with this Article 12. Waivers or modifications of this Article 12 may only be made a signed change order approved as to form by legal counsel for both Owner and Contractor; oral or implied modifications shall be ineffective.
ARTICLE 13 - UNDERGROUND CONDITIONS
13.01 Contractor To Locate Underground Facilities.
A. During construction, Contractor shall comply with Government Code Sections 4216 to 4216.9, and in particular Section 4216.2 which provides, in part: “Except in an emergency, every person planning to conduct any excavation shall contact the appropriate regional notification center at least two working days, but no more than 14 calendar days, prior to commencing that excavation, if the excavation will be conducted in an area which is known, or reasonably should be known, to contain subsurface installations other than the underground facilities owned or operated by the excavator, and, if practical, the excavator shall delineate with white paint or other suitable markings the area to be excavated.

C. Contractor shall also investigate the existence of existing service laterals, appurtenances or other types of utilities, indicated by the presence of an underground transmission main or other visible facilities, such as buildings, new asphalt, meters and junction boxes, on or adjacent to the Site, even if not shown or indicated in Document 00 3132 (Geotechnical Data and Existing Conditions), the Drawings or that provided by USA records. Contractor shall immediately secure all such available information and notify Owner and the utility owner, in writing, of its discovery.
13.02 Contractor To Protect Underground Facilities.
A. At all times during construction, all operating Underground Facilities shall remain in operation, unless the Contract Documents expressly indicate otherwise. Contractor shall maintain such Underground Facilities in service where appropriate; shall repair any damage to them caused by the Work; and shall incorporate them into the Work, including reasonable adjustments to the design location (including minor relocations) of the existing or new installations. Contractor shall take immediate action to restore any in service installations damaged by Contractor’s operations.
B. Prior to performing Work at the Site, Contractor shall lay out the locations of Underground Facilities that are to remain in service and other significant known underground installations indicated by the Underground Facilities Data. Contractor shall further locate, by carefully excavating with small equipment, potholing and principally by hand, all such utilities or installations that are to remain and that are subject to damage. If additional utilities whose locations are unknown are discovered, Contractor shall immediately report to Owner for disposition of the same. Additional compensation or extension of time on account of utilities not shown or otherwise brought to Contractor’s attention, including reasonable action taken to protect or repair damage, shall be determined as provided in this Document 00 7200.
C. If during construction, an Underground Facility is uncovered or revealed at or contiguous to the Site which was not shown or indicated in the materials supplied by Owner for bidding or in information on file at USA or otherwise reasonably available to Contractor, then Contractor shall, promptly after becoming aware thereof and before further disturbing conditions affected thereby (and in no event later than seven Days), and prior to performing any Work in connection therewith (except in an emergency), identify the owner of such Underground Facility and give written notice to that owner and to Owner. During such time, Contractor shall be responsible for the safety and protection of such Underground Facility.
D. The cost of all of the following will be included in the Contract Sum and Contractor shall have full responsibility for (a) reviewing and checking all available information and data including, but not limited to, information made available for bidding and information on file at USA; (b) locating all Underground Facilities shown or indicated in the Contract Documents, available information, or indicated by visual observation including, but not limited to, and by way of example only, engaging qualified locating services and all necessary backhoeing and potholing; (c) coordination of the Work with the owners of such Underground Facilities during construction; and (d) the safety and protection of all such Underground Facilities and repairing any damage thereto resulting from the Work.
E. Consistent with California Government Code §4215, as between Owner and Contractor, Owner will be responsible for the timely removal, relocation, or protection of existing main or trunk line utility facilities located on the Site only if such utilities are not identified in the Contract Documents or information made available for bidding. Owner will compensate for the cost of locating and repairing damage not due to Contractor’s failure to exercise reasonable care, removing and relocating such main or trunk line utility facilities not indicated in the Contract Documents or information made available for bidding with reasonable accuracy, and equipment on the Project necessarily idled during such Work. Contractor shall not be assessed liquidated damages for delay in completion of the Project, when such delay was caused by the failure of Owner or the utility to provide for removal or relocation of such utility facilities.

13.03 Concealed Or Unknown Conditions
A. If either of the following conditions is encountered at Site when digging trenches or other excavations that extend deeper than four feet below the surface, Contractor shall give a written Notice of Differing Site Conditions to Owner promptly before conditions are disturbed, except in an emergency as set forth in this Document 00 7200, and in no event later than seven Days after first observance of:
1. Subsurface or Latent physical conditions which differ materially from those indicated in the Contract Documents; or
2. Unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature or which differ materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the character provided for in the Contract Documents.
B. In response to Contractor’s Notice of Differing Site Conditions under this Paragraph, Owner will investigate the identified conditions, and if they differ materially and cause increase or decrease in Contractor’s cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the Work, Owner will negotiate the appropriate change order following the procedures set forth in the Contract Documents. If Owner determines that physical conditions at the Site are not Latent or are not materially different from those indicated in Contract Documents or that no change in terms of the Contract Documents is justified, Owner will so notify Contractor in writing, stating reasons (with Contractor retaining its rights under Article 12 of this Document 00 7200.) C. Contractor shall not be entitled to any adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time regarding claimed Latent or materially different Site conditions (whether above or below grade) if Contractor knew or should have known of the existence of such conditions at the time Contractor submitted its Bid, failed to give proper notice, or relied upon information, conclusions, opinions or deductions of the kind that the Contract Documents preclude reliance upon.
D. Regarding Underground Facilities, Contractor shall be allowed an increase in the Contract Sum or an extension of the Contract Time, or both, to the extent that they are attributable to the existence of any Underground Facility that is owned and was built by Owner only where the Underground Facility:
1. Was not shown or indicated in the Contract Documents or in the information supplied for bidding purposes or in information on file at USA; and
2. Contractor did not know of it; and
3. Contractor could not reasonably have been expected to be aware of it or to have anticipated it from the information available. (For example, if surface conditions such as pavement repairs, valve covers, or other markings, indicate the presence of an Underground Facility, then an increase in the Contract Sum or an extension of the Contract Time will not be due, even if the Underground Facility was not indicated in the Contract Documents, in the information supplied to Contractor for bidding purposes, in information on file at USA, or otherwise reasonably available to Contractor.) E. Contractor shall bear the risk that Underground Facilities not owned or built by Owner may differ in nature or locations shown in information made available by Owner for bidding purposes, in information on file at USA, or otherwise reasonably available to Contractor. Underground Facilities are inherent in construction involving digging of trenches or other excavations on Owner’s Project, and Contractor is to apply its skill and industry to verify the information available.
F. Contractor’s compensation for claimed Latent or materially different Site conditions shall be limited to the actual, reasonable, incremental increase in cost of that portion of the Work, resulting from the claimed Latent or materially different Site conditions. Such calculation shall take into account the estimated value of that portion of the Work and the actual value of that portion of the Work, using for guidance Contractor’s or its subcontractor’s bid amount and actual amounts incurred for that portion of the Work and the reasonable expectation (if any) of differing or difficult site conditions in the Work area based on the available records and locale of the Work. For example, if Contractor excavates in an area unexpected, then such costs would be recoverable entirely; while if Contractor extends an existing excavation, then such costs would be recoverable Packet Page 130

General Conditions 00 7200 - 21 City of Seaside

if the resulting excavation costs in that work area exceeded the reasonable expectations therefore.
13.04 Notice Of Hazardous Waste Or Materials Conditions A. Contractor shall give a written Notice of Hazardous Materials Condition to Owner promptly, before any of the following conditions are disturbed (except in an emergency as set forth in this Document 00 7200), and in no event later than 24 hours after first observance of any:
1. Material that Contractor believes may be hazardous waste or hazardous material, as defined in Section 25117 of the Health and Safety Code (including, without limitation, Asbestos, lead, PCBs, petroleum and related hydrocarbons, and radioactive material) that is required to be removed to a Class I, Class II, or Class III disposal site in accordance with provisions of existing law (“hazardous material”); or
2. Other material that may present an imminent substantial danger to persons or property exposed thereto in connection with Work at the Site (“other materials”).
B. Except as otherwise provided in the Contract Documents or as provided by applicable law, Contractor shall not be required to give any notice for the disturbance or observation of any such hazardous materials or other materials where such matter is disturbed or observed as part of the scope of Work under the Contract Documents (such as hazardous waste or hazardous material investigation, remediation or disposal activities which are identified as the subject of Work under the Contract Documents), where Contractor complies with all requirements in the Contract Documents and applicable law respecting such materials.
C. Contractor’s Notice of Hazardous Materials Condition shall indicate whether the hazardous materials or other materials were shown or indicated in the Contract Documents to be within the scope of Work, and whether the hazardous materials or other materials were brought to the Site by Contractor, its Subcontractors, suppliers, or anyone else for whom Contractor is responsible.
D. Contractor shall not be entitled to any adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time regarding claimed hazardous waste or materials if:
1. Contractor knew of the existence of such hazardous materials or other materials at the time Contractor submitted its Bid; or
2. Contractor should have known of the existence of such hazardous material or other materials as a result of its having the responsibility to obtain additional or supplementary examinations, investigation, explorations, tests, studies, and data concerning the conditions at or contiguous to the Site prior to submitting its Bid; or
3. Contractor failed to give the written notice within the required timeframe set forth below.
E. If Owner determines that conditions involve hazardous materials or other materials and that a change in Contract Document terms is justified, Owner will issue either a Request for Proposal or Construction Change Directive under the procedures described in the Contract Documents. If Owner determines that conditions do not involve hazardous materials or other materials or that no change in Contract Document terms is justified, Owner will notify Contractor in writing, stating the reasons for its determination.
F. In addition to the parties’ other rights under this Document 00 7200, if Contractor does not agree to resume Work based on a reasonable belief that it is unsafe, or does not agree to resume Work under special conditions, Owner may order the disputed portion of Work deleted from the Work, or performed by others, or Owner may invoke its right to terminate Contractor’s right to proceed under the Contract Documents in whole or in part, for convenience or for cause as the facts may warrant.
G. If Contractor does not agree with any Owner determination of any adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time under this Article, Contractor may make a claim as provided in Article 12 of this Document 00 7200.

14.05 Termination Of Contract For Cause
A. The Contractor shall be in default of the Contract Documents and Owner may terminate the Contractor's right to proceed under the Contract Documents, for cause, in whole or in part, should the Contractor commit a material breach of the Contract Documents and not cure such breach within ten (10) calendar days of the date of notice from Owner to the Contractor demanding such cure; or, if such breach is curable but not curable within such ten (10) day period, within such period of time as is reasonably necessary to accomplish such cure.

The Contractor shall remain fully liable for the failure of any Work completed and materials and equipment provided through the date of such termination to comply with the provisions of the Contract Documents. The provisions of this Section shall not be interpreted to diminish any right which Owner may have to claim and recover damages for any breach of the Contract Documents or otherwise, but rather, the Contractor shall compensate Owner for all loss, cost, damage, expense, and/or liability suffered by Owner as a result of such termination and/or failure to comply with the Contract Documents.
C. In the event a termination for cause is later determined to have been made wrongfully or without cause, then the termination shall be treated as a termination for convenience, and the Contractor shall have no greater rights than it would have had following a termination for convenience.

MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
PART 1 – GENERAL
1.01 SUMMARY
A. Section includes description of requirements and procedures for determining amount of Work performed and for obtaining payment for Work performed.
1.02 REFERENCES
A. California Public Contract Code
B. Code of Civil Procedures
C. Government Code
1.03 COMPOSITION AND SCOPE OF CONTRACT SUM
A. Scope of Contract Sum
1. The Contract Sum for performance of the Work under Contract Documents, or under any Bid item, allowance, or Alternate, shall include full compensation for all Work required under the Contract Documents, including without limitation, all labor, materials, taxes, transport, handling, storage, supervision, administration, and all other items necessary for the satisfactory completion of the Work, whether or not expressly specified or indicated, incidental work and unexpected expenses, and all terms, conditions, requirements and limitations set forth in the Contract Documents.
2. Contract Sum may be expressed as lump sum, unit price, GMP, allowance, or combination thereof.
B. Unit Price items
1. Quantity of Work to be paid for under any item for which a unit price is fixed in Contract Documents shall be determined by Owner based on, so far as practicable, actual number of units satisfactorily completed, as determined by Owner and certified by Contractor, within prescribed or ordered limits, and no payment will be made for Work unsatisfactorily performed or done outside of limits.
2. Unit Prices shall apply to Work covered by unit prices so long as actual quantities performed on the Project are not less than 75 percent or greater than 125 percent of the estimated quantities bid or otherwise stated in the Contract Documents. If actual quantities exceed these parameters, then the unit price shall be adjusted by an amount to reflect the Contractor’s incremental cost differential resulting from increased or decreased economies of scale.
C. Lump Sum Items
1. When estimated quantity for specific portion of Work is not indicated and/or Work is designated as lump sum, payment will be on a lump sum basis for Work satisfactorily completed in accordance with Contract Documents.
2. Payment for lump sum Work, or items of Work subject to a lump sum (e.g. without limitation, change order work), shall be made on the basis of satisfactory completion of such Work or work item, earned in progressive stages in accordance with the Contract Documents, up to but not exceeding the Contractor’s percentage completion of the Work or item.
3. Lump sum items shall be paid based upon the approved Schedule of Values, which shall Packet Page 153
May 2022
Measurement and Payment 01 2000 - 2 City of Seaside
New City Hall Staff Trailer
be used to measure progressive payments based upon satisfactory progress towards completion of the item.
D. Allowance Items
1. Allowances: Allowance Work will be authorized by Owner in writing, following change order procedures to determine cost, supporting documentation and authorization to proceed. Unused allowance amounts at Contract completion shall reduce the Contract price accordingly.
1.04 PAYMENT PROCEDURES
A. Schedule of Values:
1. Within ten Days from issuance of Notice of Award and prior to the Contractor’s first Application for Payment, Contractor shall submit a detailed breakdown of its Bid by scheduled Work items and/or activities, including coordination responsibilities and Project Record Documents responsibilities. Where more than one Subcontractor comprises the work of a Work item or activity, the Schedule of Values shall show a separate line item for each subcontract. Contractor shall furnish such breakdown of the total Contract Sum by assigning dollar values (cost estimates) to each applicable Progress Schedule network activity, which cumulative sum equals the total Contract Sum. This breakdown shall be referred to as the Schedule of Values.
2. Contractor’s overhead, profit, insurance, cost of bonds (except to the extent expressly identified in a Bid item) and/or other financing, as well as “general conditions costs,” (e.g., Site cleanup and maintenance, temporary roads and access, off-Site access roads, temporary power and lighting, security, and the like), shall be prorated through all activities so that the sum of all the Schedule of Values line items equals Contractor’s total Contract Sum, less any allowances designated by Owner. Scheduling, record documents and quality assurance control shall be separate line items.
3. Owner will review the breakdown in conjunction with the Progress Schedule to ensure that the dollar amounts of this Schedule of Values are, in fact, reasonable cost allocations for the Work items listed. Upon favorable review by Owner, Owner will accept this Schedule of Values for use. Owner shall be the sole judge of fair market cost allocations.
4. Owner will reject any attempt to increase the cost of early activities, i.e., “front loading,” resulting in a complete reallocation of moneys until such “front loading” is corrected.
Repeated attempts at “front loading” may result in suspension or termination of the Work for default, or refusal to process progress payments until such time as the Schedule of Values is acceptable to Owner.
B. Contractor’s Requests for Progress Payments
1. If requested by Contractor, progress payments will be made monthly, under the following conditions:
a. On or before the 25th Day of each month, Contractor shall submit to Owner one copy of an Application for Payment for the cost of the Work put in place during the period from the last Day of the previous month to the end of the current month, along with one copy of an updated Progress Schedule. Such Applications for Payment shall be for the expected total value of activities completed or partially completed, based upon Schedule of Values prices (or Bid item prices if unit price) of all labor and materials incorporated in the Work up until midnight of the last Day of that one-month period, less the aggregate of previous payments. Accumulated retainage shall be shown as separate item in payment summary. Owner and Contractor will reconcile any differences in the field, based on the reconciled monthly report sheets. If Contractor is late submitting its Application for Payment, that Application may be processed at any time during the succeeding one-month period, resulting in processing of Contractor’s Application for Payment being delayed for more than a Day for Day basis.
b. Except as otherwise provided in a labor compliance program applicable to the Work Packet Page 154
May 2022
Measurement and Payment 01 2000 - 3 City of Seaside
New City Hall Staff Trailer
(if any) or as otherwise required by Owner, concurrently with each Application for Payment, Contractor shall submit to the Owner the Contractor’s and its Subcontractors’ certified payroll records required to be maintained pursuant to Labor Code Section 1776 for all labor performed during pay periods ending during the period covered by the Application for Payment.
c. No progress payment will be processed prior to Owner receiving all requested, acceptable schedule update information and certified payrolls, and in Owner’s sole and absolute discretion, Owner may deny the entire Application for Payment for noncompliance.
d. Each Application for Payment shall list each Change Order and Construction Change Directive (“CCD”) executed prior to date of submission, including the Change Order/CCD Number, and a description of the Work activities, consistent with the descriptions of original Work activities. Contractor shall submit a monthly Change Order/CCD status log to Owner.
e. If Owner requires substantiating data, Contractor shall submit information requested by Owner, with cover letter identifying Project, Application for Payment number and date, and detailed list of enclosures. Contractor shall submit one copy of substantiating data and cover letter for each copy of Application for Payment submitted.
f. If Contractor fails or refuses to participate in monthly Work reconciliations or other construction progress evaluation with Owner, Contractor shall not receive current payment until Contractor has participated fully in providing construction progress information and schedule update information to Owner.
C. Owner’s Review of Progress Payment Applications
1. Owner will review Contractor’s Application for Payment following receipt and during the Progress Schedule and Billing Meeting. If adjustments need to be made to percent of completion of each activity, Owner will make appropriate notations and return to Contractor. Contractor shall revise and resubmit. All parties shall update percentage of completion values in the same manner, i.e., express value of an accumulated percentage of completion to date.
2. If Owner determines that portions of the Application for Payment are not proper or not due under the Contract Documents, then Owner may approve the other portions of the Application for Payment, and in the case of disputed items or Defective Work not remedied, may withhold up to 150 percent of the disputed amount from the progress payment.
3. Pursuant to California Public Contract Code §20104.50, if Owner fails to make any progress payment within 30 Days after receipt of an undisputed and properly submitted Application for Payment from Contractor, Owner shall pay interest to the Contractor equivalent to the legal rates set forth in subdivision (a) of Section 685.010 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. The 30-Day period shall be reduced by the number of Days by which Owner exceeds the seven-Day return requirement set forth herein.
4. As soon as practicable after approval of each Application for Payment for progress payments, Owner will pay to Contractor in manner provided by law, an amount equal to 95 percent (95%) of the amounts otherwise due as provided in the Contract Documents, or a lesser amount if so provided in Contract Documents and by law, provided that payments may at any time be withheld if, in judgment of Owner, Work is not proceeding in accordance with Contract, or Contractor is not complying with requirements of Contract, or to comply with stop notices or to offset liquidated damages accruing or expected. In Owner’s sole discretion, if Contractor has failed to comply with either its Progress Schedule update or project record documents requirements, Owner may retain an additional 5% of any earned amounts until such requirements are satisfied.
5. Before any progress payment or final payment is due or made, Contractor shall submit satisfactory evidence that Contractor is not delinquent in payments to employees, Subcontractors, suppliers, or creditors for labor and materials incorporated into Work. This specifically includes, without limitation, conditional lien release forms for the current Packet Page 155

progress payment and unconditional release forms for past progress payments. This also includes copies of certified payroll from contractor and subcontractors for the current payment period.
D. Payment for Material and Equipment Not Yet Incorporated Into the Work
1. No payment shall be made for materials or equipment not yet incorporated into the Work, except as specified elsewhere in the Contract Documents or as may be agreed to by Owner in its sole discretion. Where Contractor requests payment on the basis of materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work, Contractor must satisfy the following conditions:
2. The materials and/or equipment shall be delivered and suitably stored at the Site or at another local location agreed to in writing, for example, a mutually acceptable bonded and insured warehouse.
3. Full title to the materials and/or equipment shall vest in Owner at the time of delivery to the Site, warehouse or other storage location. Obtain a negotiable warehouse receipt, endorsed over to Owner for materials and/or equipment stored in an off-site warehouse.
No payment will be made until such endorsed receipts are delivered to Owner.
4. Stockpiled materials and/or equipment shall be available for Owner inspection, but Owner shall have no obligation to inspect them and its inspection or failure to inspect shall not relieve Contractor of any obligations under the Contract Documents. Materials and/or equipment shall be segregated and labeled or tagged to identify these specific Contract Documents.
5. After delivery of materials and/or equipment, if any inherent or acquired defects are discovered, defective materials and/or equipment shall be removed and replaced with suitable materials and/or equipment at Contractor’s expense.
6. At Contractor’s expense, insure the materials and/or equipment against theft, fire, flood, vandalism, and malicious mischief, as well as any other coverages required under the Contract Documents.
7. Contractor’s Application for Payment shall be accompanied by a bill of sale, invoice or other documentation warranting that Owner has received the materials and equipment free and clear of all liens and evidence that the materials and equipment are covered by appropriate property insurance and other arrangements to protect Owner interest therein, all of which must be satisfactory to Owner. This documentation shall include, but not be limited to, conditional releases of mechanics’ liens and stop notices from all those providing materials and equipment as to which the Application for Payment relates, as well as unconditional releases of the same from the same as to the previous Application for Payment for which they have not already been provided. Amounts previously paid for materials and equipment prior to incorporation into the Work shall be deducted from amounts otherwise due Contractor as they are incorporated.
1.05 FINAL PAYMENT
A. Final Payment
1. As soon as practicable after all required Work is completed in accordance with Contract Documents, including punchlist, testing, record documents and Contractor maintenance after Final Acceptance, Contractor shall submit its Application for Final Payment.
2. Provided Contractor has met all conditions required for Final payment, Owner will pay to Contractor, in manner provided by law, unpaid balance of Contract Sum of Work (including, without limitation, retentions), or whole Contract Sum of Work if no progress payment has been made, determined in accordance with terms of Contract Documents, less sums as may be lawfully retained under any provisions of Contract Documents or by law.
B. Final Accounting
1. Prior progress payments and change orders shall be subject to audit and correction in the final payment.

1.06 SUBSTITUTION OF SECURITIES
A. Public Contract Code Section 22300. In accordance with the provisions of Public Contract Code Section 22300, substitution of securities for any moneys withheld under Contract Documents to ensure performance is permitted under following conditions:
1. At request and expense of Contractor, securities listed in Section 16430 of the Government Code, bank or savings and loan certificates of deposit, interest bearing demand deposit accounts, standby letters of credit, or any other security mutually agreed to by Contractor and Owner which are equivalent to the amount withheld under retention provisions of Contract shall be deposited with Controller or with a state or federally chartered bank in California, as the escrow agent, who shall then pay such moneys to Contractor. Upon satisfactory completion of Contract, securities shall be returned to Contractor.
2. Alternatively, Contractor may request and Owner shall make payment of retentions earned directly to the escrow agent at the expense of Contractor. At the expense of Contractor, Contractor may direct the investment of the payments into securities and receive the interest earned on the investments upon the same terms provided for securities deposited by Contractor. Upon satisfactory completion of the work of the Contract Documents, Contractor shall receive from escrow agent all securities, interest, and payments received by the escrow agent from Owner. Contractor shall then pay to each Subcontractor, not later than 10 Days after receipt of the payment, the respective amount of interest earned, net of costs attributed to retention withheld from each Subcontractor, on the amount of retention withheld to insure the performance of Contractor.
3. Contractor shall be beneficial owner of securities substituted for moneys withheld and shall receive any interest thereon.

DIVISION 1 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
SECTION 01 2600
MODIFICATION PROCEDURES
PART 1 – GENERAL
1.01 SUMMARY
A. Section includes requirements that supplement the paragraphs of Document 00 7200 (General Conditions).
B. Description of procedures for modifying the Contract Documents and determining costs for changes in contract amounts.
1.02 PROCEDURES FOR CONTRACTOR INITIATED CHANGE ORDER
A. Contractor-Initiated Change Proposal Request (CPR) and Procedures:
1. Contractor may initiate changes by submitting a Change Proposal Request (“CPR”).
2. Whenever Contractor elects or is entitled to submit a CPR, Contractor shall prepare and submit to Owner for consideration a CPR using the form included in this Project Manual.
All CPRs must contain a complete breakdown of costs of credits, deducts and extras; itemizing materials, labor, taxes, Markup and any requested changes to Contract Time. All Subcontractor Work shall be so indicated. Individual entries on the CPR form shall include applicable Schedule of Values code, with all amounts determined as provided herein. After receipt of a CPR with a detailed breakdown, Owner will act promptly thereon.
3. If Owner accepts a CPR, Owner will prepare a Change Order for Owner and Contractor signatures.
4. If CPR is not acceptable to Owner because it does not agree with Contractor’s proposed cost and/or time, Owner will provide comments thereto. Contractor will then, within seven (7) Days (except as otherwise provided herein), submit a revised CPR.
5. When necessity to proceed with a change does not allow Owner sufficient time to conduct a proper check of a CPR (or revised CPR), Owner may issue a Change Directive (CD) as provided below.
B. Contractor-Initiated Request for Information (RFI) Procedures, Requirements and Limitations:
1. Contractor may submit RFI’s for clarifications in Owner-prepared Contract Documents, which may result in the Contractor submitting a CPR.
2. Whenever Contractor requires information regarding the Project or Owner-prepared Contract Documents, or receives a request for such information from a Subcontractor, Contractor may prepare and deliver an RFI to Owner. Contractor shall use RFI format provided on approval by Owner. Contractor shall not issue an RFI to Owner solely to clarify Contractor-prepared Construction Documents. Contractor must submit time critical RFIs at least 30 days before scheduled start date of the affected Work activity. Contractor shall reference each RFI to an activity of Progress Schedule and shall note time criticality of the RFI, indicating time within which a response is required. Contractor’s failure to reference RFI to an activity on the Progress Schedule and note time criticality on the RFI shall constitute Contractor’s waiver of any claim for time delay or interruption to the Work resulting from any delay in responding to the RFI.
3. Contractor shall be responsible for its costs to implement and administer RFIs throughout the Contract duration. Regardless of the number of RFIs submitted, Contractor shall not be entitled to additional compensation for the effort required to submit the RFIs. Contractor shall be responsible for Owner’s administrative costs for answering RFIs where the answer could reasonably be found by reviewing the Contract Documents, as determined by Packet Page 158
May 2022
Modification Procedures 01 2600 - 2 City of Seaside
New City Hall Staff Trailer
Owner; at Owner discretion, such costs may be deducted from progress payments or final payment.
4. Owner will respond within ten (10) days from receipt of RFI with a written response to Contractor. Contractor shall distribute response to all appropriate Subcontractors.
5. If Contractor is satisfied with the response and does not request a change in Contract Sum or Contract Time, then the response shall be executed without a change.
6. If Contractor believes the response is incomplete, Contractor shall issue another RFI (with the same RFI number with the letter “A” indicating it is a follow-up RFI) to Owner clarifying original RFI. Additionally, Owner may return RFI requesting additional information should original RFI be inadequate in describing condition.
C. Time Requirements:
1. If Contractor believes that an Owner response to an RFI, submittal or other Owner direction, results in change in Contract Sum or Contract Time, Contractor shall notify Owner with the issuance of a preliminary CPR within ten Days after receiving Owner’s response or direction, and in no event after starting the disputed work or later than the time allowed under Article 12 of Document 00 7200 (General Conditions). If Contractor also requests a time extension, or has issued a notice of delay or otherwise requests a time extension with a CPR, then Contractor shall submit the TIE required herein concurrently with the CPR and in no event later than ten Days after providing the notice of delay.
2. If Contractor requires more time to accurately identify the required changes to the Contract Sum or Contract Time, Contractor may submit an updated and final CPR and TIE within 14 days of submitting the preliminary CPR.
3. If Owner agrees with Contractor’s CPR and/or TIE, then Owner will prepare a Change Order for Owner and Contractor signatures. If Owner disagrees with Contractor, then Contractor may give notice of potential claim as provided in Article 12 of Document 00 7200 (General Conditions), and proceed thereunder.
4. Contractor must submit CPRs, notices of potential claim or Claims within the required time periods. Any failure to do so waives Contractor’s right to submit a CPR or file a Claim.
D. Cost Estimate Information:
1. Contractor and subcontractors shall, upon Owner’s request, permit inspection of the original unaltered cost estimates, subcontract agreements, purchase orders relating to the change, and documents substantiating all costs associated with its CPR or Claims arising from changes in the Work.
1.03 PROCEDURES FOR OWNER INITIATED CHANGE ORDERS
A. Owner Initiated Change Directives (CD):
1. Owner may, by Change Directive (“CD”) or initially by Instruction Bulletin or by following the procedures for disputed work herein, order changes in the Work within the general scope of the Contract consisting of additions, deletions, or other revisions, with or without adjustment to Contract Sum or Contract Time.
2. If at any time Owner believes in good faith that a timely Change Order will not be agreed upon using the foregoing procedures, or at any other time, Owner may issue a CD with its recommended cost and/or time adjustment (if any). Upon receipt of CD, Contractor shall promptly proceed with the change of Work involved and respond to Owner within ten (10) Days.
3. Contractor’s response must be any one of following:
a. Return CD signed, thereby accepting Owner response, including adjustment to time and cost (if any).
b. Submit a (revised if applicable) Cost Proposal with supporting documentation (if applicable, reference original Cost Proposal number followed by letter A, B, etc. for each revision), if Owner so requests.
c. Give notice of intent to submit a claim as described in Article 12 of Document 00 7200 (General Conditions), and submit its claim as provided therein.
Packet Page 159
May 2022
Modification Procedures 01 2600 - 3 City of Seaside
New City Hall Staff Trailer
4. If CPR or the CD provides for an adjustment to any Contract Sum, the adjustment shall be based on one of the following methods:
a. Mutual acceptance of a lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation.
b. Contractor to proceed on cost reimbursable (force account) basis while negotiating towards a firm price.
c. Cost to be determined in a manner agreed.
5. Change Directive signed by Contractor indicates the agreement of Contractor therewith, including adjustment in Contract Sum or the method for determining them. Such agreement shall be effective immediately and shall be finalized as a Change Order. Where Owner authorizes CD work on a time and materials basis up to a maximum amount, then Contractor shall promptly advise Owner upon reaching 75% of such maximum amount, otherwise Contractor shall accept fully the risk of completing the CD work without exceeding such maximum amount.
6.

S:\Rules\Vaccination Policy 10-7-2021.DOCX 1 of 12
City of Seaside COVID-19 Vaccination Requirement Policy I. Preamble
To protect City of Seaside (“City”) personnel, the community members with whom City personnel interact, and its residents, the City will require all City of Seaside personnel, including employees, contractors who work at City worksites and facilities or interact with City employees or members of the public in the performance of their duties on behalf of the City, volunteers and interns, to be fully vaccinated subject against SARS-COV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, to the limited exceptions provided below.
The City adopted this vaccination policy as an emergency public health response to mitigate the negative public health consequences associated with increased incidence and test positivity rates and the prevalence of new virus variants, including increased hospitalizations, intensive care unit (“ICU”) admissions, and deaths. This policy is intended to effectuate positive public health outcomes in the City of Seaside by reducing the likelihood of hospitalizations at health care facilities in the City and surrounding areas, ICU admissions to hospitals that serve the City and its community, and deaths.
At this time, the current COVID-19 vaccines approved for use in the United States are effective at helping to reduce the risk of getting and spreading the infection. The current COVID-19 vaccines are also effective at reducing the risk of becoming seriously ill, even if a fully vaccinated person gets COVID-19, and even against the current variants of the virus that causes COVID-19. Although no vaccine is 100% effective at preventing illness in vaccinated people, the currently authorized COVID-19 vaccines remain the best form of protection against COVID-19.
This policy complements the County of Monterey’s Resolution No. 21-272, requiring all County employees to become fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and the Executive Order issued by the White House on September 9, 2021 requiring COVID-19 vaccination for all Federal employees, with exceptions only as required by law.
In accordance with this Policy, City employees, contractors, volunteers and interns may obtain the COVID-19 vaccine at a vaccination site of their choosing. Information on the COVID-19 vaccines and how to obtain vaccination is available at https://covid19.ca.gov/vaccines/.
II. Relevant Definitions
1. “City personnel”, for purposes of this Policy and related requirements, includes: (1) City of Seaside employees; (2) Non-employees, including interns, and volunteers, who provide services to the City; and (3) Contractors who are engaged by the City and who work at City worksites and facilities or interact with other City employees or members of the public in the performance of their duties on behalf of the City.
City contractors who qualify as City personnel for purposes of this Policy only include, for Packet Page 196
S:\Rules\Vaccination Policy 10-7-2021.DOCX 2 of 12
example, contracted staff who work at City worksites or facilities or with the City of Seaside outside of such worksites or facilities. This definition does not include, for example, a thirdparty attorney who provides legal services exclusively from a remote location. The inclusion of non-employees in the definition of “City personnel” confers no employment status between such individuals and the City.
2. “COVID-19 vaccine” means a COVID-19 vaccine approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration under either the Emergency Use Authorization approval process or the Biologics License Application (“BLA”) (i.e., general use) approval process.
3. “Fully vaccinated” means (1) it has been at least two weeks since a person has completed the entire recommended series of a COVID-19 vaccine, and (2) the person has provided proof of vaccination in a form consistent with the requirements for verification of vaccine status in the State of California’s July 26, 2021 Public Health Officer Order which is available at the following web address: https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/COVID19/Order-of-the-State-Public-Health-Officer-Unvaccinated-Workers-In-High-RiskSettings.aspx.
Proof of vaccination includes the following: (1) COVID-19 vaccination record card (issued by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (“CDC”) or World Health Organization Yellow Card) which includes the name of the person vaccinated, type of vaccine provided and date last dose administered); (2) a photo of a vaccination record card as a separate document; (3) a photo of a vaccination record card stored on a phone or electronic device; (4) documentation of COVID-19 vaccination from a health care provider; (5) digital record that includes a QR code that when scanned by a SMART Health Card reader displays to the reader client name, date of birth, vaccine dates and vaccine type; and (6) documentation of vaccination from other contracted employers who follow these vaccination records guidelines and standards.
4. “Partially vaccinated” means (1) a person has received (i) one dose of a two dose recommended series of a COVID-19 vaccine or (ii) the complete recommended series of a COVID-19 vaccine but less than two weeks has elapsed since the person completed the entire recommended series, and (2) the person has provided proof of vaccination in a form consistent with the requirements for verification of vaccine status in the State of California’s July 26, 2021 Public Health Officer Order.
III. Scope
The policy applies to all City personnel including volunteers and Board & Commissioners. The policy is to be administered in conjunction with the City’s COVID-19 Prevention Plan and protocols designed to mitigate risks related to COVID-19 in the workplace and at City facilities or properties.
