SECTION 00 43 37
VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW NON RESIDENT BIDDER
Texas Government Code Chapter 2252 was adopted for the award of contracts to nonresident bidders. This law
provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, nonresident bidders (out-of-state contractors
whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside the State of Texas) bid projects for
construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas resident
bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required to underbid a nonresident bidder in
order to obtain a comparable contract in the State which the nonresident's principal place of business is located.
The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all nonresident bidders in order for your bid to meet
specifications. The failure of nonresident bidders to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident
bidders must check the box in Section B.
A. Nonresident bidders in the State of State Here or Blank: , our principal place of business,
are required to be %.Here percent lower than resident bidders by State Law. A copy of the
statute is attached.
Nonresident bidders in the State of State Here or Blank; , our principal place of business,
are not required to underbid resident bidders.
B. The principal place of business of our company or our parent company or majority owner is
in the State of Texas. 0

2 Contract.
3 a. Requests for an extension of any Contract completion date must be
4 supplemented with the following:
5 1) Furnish justification and supporting evidence as the City may deem
6 necessary to determine whether the requested extension of time is entitled
7 under the provisions of this Contract.
8 a) The City will, after receipt of such justification and supporting
9 evidence, make findings of fact and will advise the Contractor, in
10 writing thereof.
11 2) If the City finds that the requested extension of time is entitled, the City's
12 determination as to the total number of days allowed for the extensions
13 shall be based upon the approved total baseline schedule and on all data
14 relevant to the extension.
15 a) Such data shall be included in the next updating of the Progress
16 schedule.
17 b) Actual delays in activities which, according to the Baseline schedule,
18 do not affect any Contract completion date shown by the critical path in
19 the network will not be the basis for a change therein.
20 2. Submit each request for change in Contract completion date to the City within 30
21 days after the beginning of the delay for which a time extension is requested but
22 before the date of fmal payment under this Contract.

24 the foregoing time limit.
25 b. From time to time, it may be necessary for the Contract schedule or completion

27 technical difficulties, strikes, unavoidable delays on the part of the City or its
28 representatives, and other unforeseeable conditions which may indicate
29 schedule adjustments or completion time extensions.
30 1) Under such conditions, the City will direct the Contractor to reschedule the
31 work or Contract completion time to reflect the changed conditions and the
32 Contractor shall revise his schedule accordingly.
33 a) No additional compensation will be made to the Contractor for such
34 schedule changes except for unavoidable overall contract time
35 extensions beyond the actual completion of unaffected work, in which
36 case the Contractor shall take all possible action to minimize any time
37 extension and any additional cost to the City.

4I and the latest start date or between the earliest finish date and the latest finish date
42 of a chain of activities on the Baseline Schedule.

1 2. Preservation
2 a. Considering the Contract completion tune, the probable number of occasions
3 upon which the job set must be taken out for new entries and for examination,
4 and the conditions under which these activities will be performed, devise a
5 suitable method for protecting the job set.
6 b. Do not use the job set for any purpose except entry of new data and for review
7 by the City, until start of transfer of data to final Project Record Documents.
8 c. Maintain the job set at the site of work.
9 3. Coordination with Construction Survey
10 a. At a minimum, in accordance with the intervals set forth in Section 01 71 23,
11 clearly mark any deviations from Contract Documents associated with
12 installation of the infrastructure.
13 4. Making entries on Drawings
14 a. Record any deviations from Contract Documents.
15 b. Use an erasable colored pencil (not ink or indelible pencil), clearly describe the
16 change by graphic line and note as required.
17 c. Date all entries.

19 e. In the event of overlapping changes, use different colors for the overlapping
20 changes.
21 5. Conversion of schematic layouts
22 a. In some cases on the Drawings, arrangements of conduits, circuits, piping,
23 ducts, and similar items, are shown schematically and are not intended to
24 portray precise physical layout.
25 1) Final physical arrangement is determined by the Contractor, subject to the
26 City's approval.
27 2) However, design of future modifications of the facility may require
28 accurate information as to the final physical layout of items which are
29 shown only schematically on the Drawings.
30 b. Show on the job set of Record Drawings, by dimension accurate to within 1
31 inch, the centerline of each run of items.
32 1) Final physical arrangement is determined by the Contractor; subject to the
33 City's approval.
34 2) Show, by symbol or note, the vertical location of the Item ("under slab", "in
35 ceiling plenum", "exposed", and the like).
36 3) Make all identification sufficiently descriptive that it may be related
37 reliably to the Specifications.
38 c. The City may waive the requirements for conversion of schematic layouts
39 where, in the City's judgment, conversion serves no useful purpose. However,
40 do not rely upon waivers being issued except as specifically issued in writing
41 by the City.
42 B. Final Project Record Documents
43 1. Transfer of data to Drawings
44 a. Carefully transfer change data shown on the job set of Record Drawings to the
45 corresponding final documents, coordinating the changes as required.

DISCUSSION:
Texas Government Code Chapter 2258 requires that a public body awarding a contract for Public
Works shall determine the general prevailing rate of per diem wages for each craft or type of worker
needed to execute the contract. The public body is required to specify in the bid documents for any
Public Works contract, and in the contract itself, the wages as determined and adopted by the public
body.
The attached 2013 Prevailing Wage Rates data for Heavy and Highway Construction projects
identifies the current Davis -Bacon Act prevailing wages for heavy and highway construction projects
applicable to the local wage rate zone. The attached 2013 Prevailing Wage Rates data for
Commercial Construction projects identifies average wage rates based on a salary survey conducted
and published by the North Texas Construction Industry (Fall 2012). The 2013 Prevailing Wage
Rates will be included in future City -awarded infrastructure bid documents and contracts once
adopted.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that this action will have no material effect on
City funds.
