M&C - Council Agenda
In addition to the contract amount, $300,000.00 is required for project management, real property
acquisition, material testing and inspection.
It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its Capital Improvement Program (CIP) plan
throughout the Fiscal Year, instead of within the annual budget ordinance, as projects commence,
additional funding needs are identified, and to comply with bond covenants.

If, upon being opened, a submission is unreadable to the degree that material conformance to
the requirements of the procurement specifications cannot be ascertained, such submission will
be rejected without liability to the City, unless such bidder provides clear and convincing
evidence (a) of the content of the submission as originally submitted and (b) that the unreadable
condition of the Electronic Bid was caused solely by error or malfunction of the Bonfire
Platform (Procurement Portal). Failure to scan a clear or readable copy of a bid into the system
does not constitute and shall not be considered an error or malfunction of the Bonfire Platform
(Procurement Portal). Bidders are encouraged to fully review each page of every document

VENDOR COMPLIANCE TO STATE LAW
Page I
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 provide 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 lower than the lowest Texas resident
bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required to underbid a nonresident bidder
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 , our principal place of business, are

under the Contract Documents, the altered work will be paid for at the Contract unit price.
2. If the changes in quantities or alterations significantly change the character of work, the
Contract will be amended by a Change Order.
3. If no unit prices exist, this will be considered Extra Work and the Contract will be amended
by a Change Order in accordance with Article 12.
4. A significant change in the character of work occurs when:
a. the character of work for any Item as altered differs materially in kind or nature from that

2. correct such defective Work; or
3. if the defective Work has been rejected by City, remove it from the Project and replace it
with Work that is not defective, and
4. satisfactorily correct or repair or remove and replace any damage to other Work, to the
work of others or other land or areas resulting therefrom.
B. If Contractor does not promptly comply with the terms of City's written instructions, or in an
emergency where delay would cause serious risk of loss or damage, City may have the defective
Work corrected or repaired or may have the rejected Work removed and replaced. All claims,
costs, losses, and damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers,
architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or other dispute resolution costs)
arising out of or relating to such correction or repair or such removal and replacement (including
but not limited to all costs of repair or replacement of work of others) will be paid by Contractor.
C. In special circumstances where a particular item of equipment is placed in continuous service
before Final Acceptance of all the Work, the correction period for that item may start to run from
an earlier date if so provided in the Contract Documents.
D. Where defective Work (and damage to other Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected or
removed and replaced under this Paragraph 13.07, the correction period hereunder with respect
to such Work may be required to be extended for an additional period of one year after the end
of the initial correction period. City shall provide 30 days written notice to Contractor should
such additional warranty coverage be required. Contractor may dispute this requirement by filing
a Contract Claim, pursuant to Paragraph 10.06.
E. Contractor's obligations under this Paragraph 13.07 are in addition to any other obligation or
warranty. The provisions of this Paragraph 13.07 shall not be construed as a substitute for, or a
waiver of, the provisions of any applicable statute of limitation or repose.
13.08 Acceptance of Defective Work
If, instead of requiring correction or removal and replacement of defective Work, City prefers to
accept it, City may do so. Contractor shall pay all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but
not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all
court or other dispute resolution costs) attributable to City's evaluation of and determination to
accept such defective Work and for the diminished value of the Work to the extent not otherwise
paid by Contractor. If any such acceptance occurs prior to Final Acceptance, a Change Order will be
issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with respect to the Work,
and City shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price, reflecting the diminished
value of Work so accepted.

ARTICLE 15 — SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERNIINATION
15.01 City May Suspend Work
A. At any time and without cause, City may suspend the Work or any portion thereof by written
notice to Contractor and which may fix the date on which Work will be resumed. Contractor shall
resume the Work on the date so fixed. During temporary suspension of the Work covered by
these Contract Documents, for any reason, the City will make no extra payment for stand-by time
of construction equipment and/or construction crews.
B. Should the Contractor not be able to complete a portion of the Project due to causes beyond the
control of and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor, and should it be determined by
mutual consent of the Contractor and City that a solution to allow construction to proceed is not
available within a reasonable period of time, Contractor may request an extension in Contract
Time, directly attributable to any such suspension.
C. If it should become necessary to suspend the Work for an indefinite period, the Contractor shall
store all materials in such a manner that they will not obstruct or impede the public unnecessarily
nor become damaged in any way, and he shall take every precaution to prevent damage or
deterioration of the work performed; he shall provide suitable drainage about the work, and erect
temporary structures where necessary.
D. Contractor may be reimbursed for the cost of moving his equipment off the job and returning the
necessary equipment to the job when it is determined by the City that construction may be
resumed. Such reimbursement shall be based on actual cost to the Contractor of moving the
equipment and no profit will be allowed. Reimbursement may not be allowed if the equipment is
moved to another construction project for the City.
15.02 City May Terminate for Cause
A. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events by way of example, but not of
limitation, may justify termination for cause:
Contractor's persistent failure to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract
Documents (including, but not limited to, failure to supply sufficient skilled workers or
suitable materials or equipment, failure to adhere to the Project Schedule established under
Paragraph 2.07 as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Paragraph 6.04, or failure to adhere
to the City's Business Diversity Enterprise Ordinance #20020-12-2011established under
Paragraph 6.06.D);
2. Contractor's disregard of Laws or Regulations of any public body having jurisdiction;
3. Contractor's repeated disregard of the authority of City; or
4. Contractor's violation in any substantial way of any provisions of the Contract Documents;

or
5. Contractor's failure to promptly make good any defect in materials or workmanship, or
defects of any nature, the correction of which has been directed in writing by the City; or
6. Substantial indication that the Contractor has made an unauthorized assignment of
the Contract or any funds due therefrom for the benefit of any creditor or for any other
purpose; or
7. Substantial evidence that the Contractor has become insolvent or bankrupt, or otherwise
financially unable to carry on the Work satisfactorily; or
8. Contractor commences legal action in a court of competent jurisdiction against the City.
B. If one or more of the events identified in Paragraph 15.02A. occur, City will provide written
notice to Contractor and Surety to arrange a conference with Contractor and Surety to address
Contractor's failure to perform the Work. Conference shall be held not later than 15 days, after
receipt of notice.
1. If the City, the Contractor, and the Surety do not agree to allow the Contractor to proceed to
perform the construction Contract, the City may, to the extent permitted by Laws and
Regulations, declare a Contractor default and formally terminate the Contractor's right to
complete the Contract. Contractor default shall not be declared earlier than 20 days after the
Contractor and Surety have received notice of conference to address Contractor's failure to
perform the Work.
2. If Contractor's services are terminated, Surety shall be obligated to take over and perform the
Work. If Surety does not commence performance thereof within 15 consecutive calendar days
after date of an additional written notice demanding Surety's performance of its
obligations, then City, without process or action at law, may take over any portion of the
Work and complete it as described below.
a. If City completes the Work, City may exclude Contractor and Surety from the site and
take possession of the Work, and all materials and equipment incorporated into the Work
stored at the Site or for which City has paid Contractor or Surety but which are stored
elsewhere, and finish the Work as City may deem expedient.
3. Whether City or Surety completes the Work, Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any
further payment until the Work is finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds
all claims, costs, losses and damages sustained by City arising out of or resulting from
completing the Work, such excess will be paid to Contractor. If such claims, costs, losses and
damages exceed such unpaid balance, Contractor shall pay the difference to City. Such
claims, costs, losses and damages incurred by City will be incorporated in a Change Order,
provided that when exercising any rights or remedies under this Paragraph, City shall not be
required to obtain the lowest price for the Work performed.

begins within seven days of receipt of notice of intent to terminate to correct its failure to perform
and proceeds diligently to cure such failure within no more than 30 days of receipt of said notice.
D. Where Contractor's services have been so terminated by City, the termination will not affect any
rights or remedies of City against Contractor then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any
retention or payment of moneys due Contractor by City will not release Contractor from liability.
E. If and to the extent that Contractor has provided a performance bond under the provisions of
Paragraph 5.02, the termination procedures of that bond shall not supersede the provisions of this
Article.
15.03 City May Terminate for Convenience
A. City may, without cause and without prejudice to any other right or remedy of City, terminate
the Contract. Any termination shall be effected by mailing a notice of the termination to the
Contractor specifying the extent to which performance of Work under the contract is terminated,
and the date upon which such termination becomes effective. Receipt of the notice shall be
deemed conclusively presumed and established when the letter is placed in the United States
Postal Service Mail by the City. Further, it shall be deemed conclusively presumed and
established that such termination is made with just cause as therein stated; and no proof in any
claim, demand or suit shall be required of the City regarding such discretionary action.

113 3. After the stabilization period (3.5 psig minimum pressure) start the stop watch.
114 4. Determine time in seconds that is required for the internal air pressure to reach 2.5
115 psig. Minimum permissible pressure holding time per diameter per length of pipe
116 is computed from the following equation:
117
118 T = (0.0850*D*K)
119 Q Where:
120 T = shortest time, seconds, allowed for air pressure to drop to 1.0 psig
121 K = 0.000419*D*L, but not less than 1.0
122 D = nominal pipe diameter, inches
123 L = length of pipe being tested (by pipe size), feet
124 Q = 0.0015, cubic feet per minute per square foot of internal surface
