available for examination without charge and copies may be secured
in accordance with the "Notice Inviting Bids.,,
Examination of Plans, Specifications and Site or Work.
The bidder is required to examine the site of work, the proposal,
the plans and the specifications very carefully. He shall satisfy
himself as to the character, quality and quantities of the work to
be performed, the materials to be furnished and the requirements
of the Contract Documents. The plans for the work show conditions
as they are believed to exist, but it is not tr, be inferred that
all the conditions as shown thereon are actually existent, nor
shall the City or any of its officers or agents be liable for any
loss sustained by the Contractor as a result of any variance between
conditions shown on the plans and actual conditions revealed during
examination or progress of the work. The submission of a proposal
shall be prima facie evidence that the bidder has made such an
examination.
Interpretation of Drawings and Documents_.
If any bidder should find discrepancies in, or omissions from,
the drawings, specifications or other proposed contract documents,
or if he should be in doubt as to the true meaning of any part
thereof, he shall at once make a written request to the Engineer
for correction, clarification or interpretation of the point or points
in question. The person submitting such a request shall be respon-
sible for its prompt delivery.
In the event that the Engineer receives such a request and
it should be found that certain essential information is not clearly
and fully set forth, or if the Engineer discovers errors, omissions,

contract documents and shall be returned with them. Before sub-
mitting his bid, each Bidder shall inform himself as to whether or

bid any such addenda issued may render his bid invalid and result
in its rejection.

or be interested in more than one bid for the same work unless
alternate bids are called for. A person, firm or corporation who

the delay, and his findings of fact thereon shall be
final and conclusive.
1-8.05 Temporary Suspension of {Fork
The Engineer shall have the authority to suspend the
work, wholly or in part by written direction, for such
period as he may deem necessary, due to unsuitable
weather or to such other conditions as are considered
unfavorable for the suitable prosecution of the work
or for such time as he may deem necessary due to the
failure on the part of the Contractor to carry out
order given, to prosecute the work diligently, or
to perform any provision of the contract. The
Contractor shall immediately obey such direction of
the Engineer and shall not resume the work until
directed or approved in writing by the Engineer.
If the Contractor should neglect to prosecute the
work properly or fail to perform any provisions of
this contract, the City, after three (3) days' written
notice to the Contractor, may, without prejudice to
any other remedy it may have, make good such deficiencies
and may deduct the cost thereof from the payment then
or thereafter due the Contractor; provided, however,
that the City Engineer shall. approve such action and
certify the amount thereof to be charged to the
Contractor.
In the event that a suspension of N,.,ork is ordered, as
provided above, by reason of the failure of the
Contractor to carry out orders, to perform any pro-
visions of the contract: or to prosecute the work
diligently, the Contractor, at his expense, shall do
all the work necessary to provide a safe, smooth and
unobstructed passageway through the construction area
for use by public traffic during the period of such
--53-

suspension. The days on which such suspension order
is in effect may be considered as part of the time
requirements of the contract.
In the event that a suspension of work is ordered by
the Engineer, due to unsuitable weather or other
unsuitable conditions which, in the judgment of the
Engineer, are not the fault of the Contractor, the
cost of providing a smooth and unobstructed passage-
way through the work will be paid for as extra work
or, at the option of the Engineer, such work will be
performed by the City at no cost to the Contractor.
The days on which such suspension order is in effect
shall not be considered as part of the time requirements
of the contract. In the event of a suspension of work
under any of the conditions as set forth above, such
suspension of work shall not relieve the Contractor
of his responsibilities as set forth in Section 1-7.
1-8.06 Termination of Contract
In the event that any of the provisions of this
contract are violated by the Contractor or by any
subcontractor under any subcontract on the work, the
City may terminate the contract by serving written
notice upon the Contractor of its intention to ter-
minate such contract and, unless within ten (10)
days after the serving of such notice, such violation
shall cease, the contract shall, upon the expiration
of said ten (10) days, cease and terminate. As to
violations of the provisions of the contract which
cannot be remedied or corrected within ten (10) days,
said contract shall, at the option of the City,
cease and terminate upon the giving of like notice.
In the event of any such termination for any of the
reasons above-mentioned, the City may take over the
work and prosecute the same to completion by contract
or otherwise for the account and at the expense of
the Contractor and his sureties shall be liable to
the City for any excess cost occasioned in the event
of any such termination, and the City may take
possession of and utilize in completing the work,
such materials, appliances and plant as n;ay be on the
site of work and necessary therefor.
Should the Contractor fail or refuse to proceed with
the work on notice of the Engineer to proceed; should
the Contractor be adjudged a bankrupt or make a general
assignment for the benefit of crediLorE, or should a
receiver be appointed on account of insolvency of the
Contractor; should the Contractor persistently or
repeatedly reVuse or fail, except in cases for which
-54-

an extension of time is provided, to supply enough
properly skilled workmen or proper materials to
construct and complete said project within the time
required, in a good and workmanlike manner; should
the Contractor fail to make prompt payment to a
subcontractor, or for materials or labor; should the
Contractor persistently disregard laws, ordinances
or the instructions of the City or its duly authorized
engineers, inspectors or representatives, or otherwise
be guilty of a substantial violation of any provision
of the contract documents, then the City, upon the
certificate of its City Engineer that sufficient
cause exists to justify such action, may, without
prejudice of any other right or remedy and after
giving the Contractor five (5) days written notice,
terminate the employment of said Contractor and take
possession of the premises and of all materials,
tools and appliances thereon and finish the work by
whatever methods it may deem expedient. In such case
the Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any
further payment until the work is finished. If the
unpaid balance of the contract price shall exceed
the expense of finishing the wo_k, including compen-
sation for additional managerial and administrative
services, such excess shall be paid to the Contractor.
If such expense shall exceed such unpaid balance,
the Contractor shall pay the difference to the City.
The expense incurred by the City as herein provided,
and the damage incurred due to the Contractor's
default, shall be certified by the City Engineer.
In case this contract, or any alterations or modifica-
tions thereof be thus terminated, the actions of the
City shall be conclusive and said Contractor shall
not be allowed to claim or receive any compensation
or damages for not being allowed to proceed with the
work.

and not minimum car weight used
tariff, and provided further
not be acceptable for material
:fixing plants.
Unless otherwise provided, material paid for by the
cubic yard will be measured in the vehicle at the
point of delivery or at a mixing plant, as the case
may be. All materials which are specified for
measurement by the cubic yard "measured in the
vehicle" shall be hauled in vehicles of such type and
size that the actual contents may be readily and
accurately determined.
Lineal or areal quantities of work shall be considered
as being the horizontal lineal or areal quantities
determined from measurements or dimensions of such
work made or computed in horizontal planes in
accordance with details shown on the plans, unless
otherwise specified.

shall be delivered in standard containers or tanks
which have been calibrated and certified by a
representative of the State Bureau of Weights and
Measures.
1-9.02 Scope of Payment
The Contractor shall accept the payment stipulated
in his proposal, subject to any additions thereto or
deductions therefrom which may be made in accordance
with the provisions of the contract documents and
computed upon the basis of the actual quantities in the
completed work, as full compensation for furnishing
all materials, labor, tools, and equipment necessary
to the completed work and for performing all work
contemplated and embraced under the contract in
strict accordance with the plan- and specifications;
also for loss or damage arising from the nature of
the work, or from the action of the elements, except
as hereinbefore provided, or from any unforeseen
difficulties which may be encountered during the
prosecution of the work until the final acceptance
by the City Council and for -all risks of every descrip-
tion connected with the prosecution of the work,
also for all expenses incurred in consequence of the
suspension or discontinuance of the work as herein
specified; and for satisfactorily completing the
work according to the plans and specification.
Neither the payment of any estimate nor of any
retained percentages shall relieve the Contractor of
any obligation to make good any defective work or
material. All labor and materials not specifically
mentioned as bid items, but necessary for satisfactory
completion of the work, shall be considered as part
of the prices for bid items and no extra compensation
shall be made for them.
1-9.03 Progress Payments
The Contractor shall make a written request of the
Engineer for monthly payments. This written request
shall contain an accounting of the total amount of
the work done and materials furnished by the Contractor
and incorporated into the work. In estimating such
value, the Engineer may take into consideration,
along with other facts and conditions deemed by him
to be proper, the ratio of the difficulty of the work
completed to the probable difficulties of the work
to be done. The Engineer may at his discretion,
under unusual circumstances, approve one additional
monthly payment.

of all persoi.nel and such schedules of the cost of
labor, equipment, cost and quantities of materials
and other items, supported as to correctness by such
evidence as, and in such form as, the City may require.
The submission and approval of such schedules shall
be a condition precedent to the making of any payments
under the contract.
The City shall retain ten percent (10%) of such
estimated value as part security for the fulfillment
of the contract by the Contractor and shall, within
ten (10) days after approval by the City Council, pay
to the Contractor the balance of such estimated
value, after deducting therefrom all previous payments
and all sums to be kept or retained under the terms
of the contract. No such payment will be made when,
in the judgment of the Engineer, the work is not
proceeding in accordance with the provisions of the
contract, or when in his judgment, the total value
of such payment would be less than $300.
No such estimate or payment shall be construed to be
an acceptance of any defective work or improper
materials.
1-9.04 Deductions from Payments
The City of San Juan Capistrano, by any of its
appropriate officers, may at its option and at any
time retain out of any amounts due the Contractor,
