WHEREAS, in response to the Village's Invitation to Bid issued on December 19, 2014,
Contractor submitted a proposal for the Project (as hereinafter defined);
WHEREAS, Contractor and Village, for the considerations hereinafter named, the

ARTICLE 1
SCOPE OF WORK
1.1 Contractor hereby agrees to furnish all of the labor, materials, equipment, services and
incidentals necessary to perform the totality of the obligations imposed upon the
Contractor and all of the work for the OUTFALL O -15R WITHIN DRAINAGE BASIN 8 AT
398 HARBOR DR (the "Work" or "Project") in accordance with and as described
in the Plans and Specifications and Project Manual prepared by Tetra Tech dated
December, 2014 (hereinafter the "Contract Documents" as defined in Section 4.1)
incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.
ARTICLE 2
CONTRACT TIME
2.1 Contractor shall be instructed to commence the Work by written instructions in the
form of a Notice to Proceed providing a commencement date and issued by the
Village Manager. The Notice to Proceed will not be issued until Contractor's
submission to Village of all required documents, including permits(s), and after
execution of this Contract.
2.2 The Contractor shall prosecute the Work with faithfulness and diligence and the
Work shall be substantially completed within Seventy -Five (75) calendar days from
the date specified in the Notice to Proceed ("Substantial Completion") so that the
Village may occupy and use all or a portion of the Project for its intended purpose.
Achievement of Substantial Completion requires acceptance by the Village that
the Work is complete and in accordance with the Contract Documents so that the
Village may occupy and use the Project for the purpose and use for which it was
intended, and the permitting governmental authorities shall have issued final
inspection and approval. The Work shall be fully completed in accordance with
the Contract Documents within One -hundred and five (105) calendar days from
the date specified in the Notice to Proceed ("Final Completion"), and on the date
agreed to by Village when all Work has been completed in accordance with the
Contract Documents, including the satisfaction of all requirements in Section 3.3 of
this Contract for final payment.
2.3 Time is of the essence throughout this Contract and there will be monetary damage
to the Village in the event that the Work is not completed within the time fixed for
completion in this Contract. In as much as the actual damages for such delay of
performance is impossible to exactly determine, Contractor agrees that it shall be
liable for and shall pay Village liquidated damages for all delay damages as set
forth herein. Upon failure of Contractor to achieve Substantial Completion of the
Contract within Seventy -Five (75) calendar days from the date specified in the
Notice to Proceed, Contractor shall pay to Village the sum of Five Hundred Dollars
($500) for each calendar day that the Contractor failed to achieve Substantial

calendar days from the date specified in the Notice to Proceed, Contractor shall
pay to Village the sum of Five Hundred Dollars ($500) for each calendar day after
Substantial Completion that the Project has not achieved Final Completion and
readiness for final payment. These amounts are not penalties but are liquidated
damages payable by Contractor to Village for the failure to provide full beneficial
occupancy and use of the Project as required. Liquidated damages are hereby
fixed and agreed upon between the parties who hereby acknowledge the
difficulty of determining the amount of damages that will be sustained by Village
as a consequence of Contractor's delay and failure of Contractor to complete the
Work on time.
2.4 Village shall inspect the Work and prepare and deliver to the Contractor a punchlist
for the Work or portion thereof ("Punchlist'), which was inspected. This Punchlist
shall list all items that Village has identified for correction or completion. When all
items listed on the Punchlist have been corrected or completed to the satisfaction
of Village, Village may certify Final Completion. Contractor understands and agrees
that Final Completion cannot occur until such time as the Punchlist Work has
been completed so that the Project can be occupied and used by Village for
its intended purpose without disruption to Village.
2.5 Village is authorized to deduct the liquidated damages from monies due to
Contractor for the Work under this Contract. In case the liquidated damage
amount due to Village by Contractor exceeds monies due Contractor from Village,
Contractor shall be liable and shall immediately upon demand by Village pay to
Village the amount of said excess.
