CITY’S RESPONSIBILITIES 2.1. The CITY shall designate in writing a project coordinator to act as the CITY's representative with respect to the services to be rendered under this Agreement (the "Project Coordinator"). The Project Coordinator shall have authority to transmit instructions, receive information, interpret and define the CITY's policies and decisions with respect to the CONTRACTOR's services for the Project. However, the Project Coordinator is not authorized to issue any verbal or written orders or instructions to the CONTRACTOR that would have the effect, or be interpreted to have the effect, of modifying or changing in any way whatever:
(a) The scope of services to be provided and performed by the CONTRACTOR;
(b) The time the CONTRACTOR is obligated to commence and complete all such services; or
(c) The amount of compensation the CITY is obligated or committed to pay the CONTRACTOR.
2.2. The Project Coordinator shall:
(a) Review and make appropriate recommendations on all requests submitted by the CONTRACTOR for payment for services and work provided and performed in accordance with this Agreement;
(b) Arrange for access to and make all provisions for the CONTRACTOR to enter the Project site to perform the services to be provided by the CONTRACTOR under this Agreement; and
(c) Provide notice to the CONTRACTOR of any deficiencies or defects discovered by the CITY with respect to the services to be rendered by the CONTRACTOR hereunder.
2.3. The CONTRACTOR acknowledges that access to the Project Site, to be arranged by the CITY for the CONTRACTOR, may be provided during times that are not the normal business hours of the CONTRACTOR.
3.1. Services to be rendered by the CONTRACTOR shall be commenced subsequent to the execution of this Agreement upon written Notice to Proceed from the CITY for all or any designated portion of the Project and shall be for a period of two (2) years and three (3) month, with the option for two (2) additional one (1) year renewal. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance of this Agreement.
3.2. Should the CONTRACTOR be obstructed or delayed in the prosecution or completion of its services as a result of unforeseeable causes beyond the control of the CONTRACTOR, and not due to its own fault or neglect, including but not restricted to acts of God or of public enemy, acts of government or of the CITY, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine regulations, strikes or lock-outs, then the CONTRACTOR shall notify the CITY in writing within 5 working days after commencement of such delay, stating the cause or causes thereof, or be deemed to have waived any right which the CONTRACTOR may have had to request a time extension.
3.3. No interruption, interference, inefficiency, suspension or delay in the commencement or progress of the CONTRACTOR's services from any cause whatsoever, including those for which the CITY may be responsible in whole or in part, shall relieve the CONTRACTOR of its duty to perform or give rise to any right to damages or additional compensation from the CITY. The CONTRACTOR's sole remedy against the CITY will be the right to seek an extension of time to its schedule. This paragraph shall expressly apply to claims for early completion, as well as claims based on late completion. [If Applicable-Provided, however, if through no fault or neglect of the CONTRACTOR, the services to be provided hereunder have not been completed within 18 months of the date hereof, the CONTRACTOR's compensation may be equitably adjusted, with respect to those services that have not yet been performed, to reflect the incremental increase in costs experienced by the CONTRACTOR after expiration of said 18 month period.]
3.4. Should the CONTRACTOR fail to commence, provide, perform or complete any of the services to be provided hereunder in a timely and reasonable manner, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to the CITY hereunder, the CITY at its sole discretion and option may withhold any and all payments due and owing to the CONTRACTOR until such time as the CONTRACTOR resumes performance of its obligations hereunder in such a manner so as to reasonably establish to the CITY's satisfaction that the CONTRACTOR's performance is or will shortly be back on schedule.
