Obligations of the Engineer
A. General
The ENGINEER will serve as the CITY's professional engineering
representative under this Agreement, providing professional engineering
consultation and advice and furnishing customary services incidental thereto.
B. Standard of Care
The ENGINEER shall perform its services,
(1) with the professional skill and care ordinarily provided by competent
engineers practicing under the same or similar circumstances and
professional license; and
(2) as expeditiously as is prudent considering the ordinary professional
skill and care of a competent engineer.
C. Subsurface Investigations
(1) The ENGINEER shall advise the CITY with regard to the necessity for
subcontract work such as special surveys, tests, test borings, or other
subsurface investigations in connection with design and engineering

feasibility, or schedules will not vary from the ENGINEER's opinions,
analyses, projections, or estimates.

progress payments to the construction contractor will be based on the
ENGINEER's knowledge, information, and belief from selective sampling and

contractor has completed the work in exact accordance with the contract

ENGINEER has made an examination to ascertain how or for what purpose
the construction contractor has used the moneys paid; that title to any of the

claims, security interests, or encumbrances; or that there are no other matters
at issue between the CITY and the construction contractor that affect the
