CAUSES FOR REJECTION No bid will be canvassed, considered or accepted which, in the opinion of the City is informal or unbalanced, or contains inadequate or unreasonable prices for any items; each item must carry its own proportion of the cost as nearly as is practicable. Any alteration, erasure, interlineations, or failure to specify bids for all items called for in the schedule shall render the proposal informal. REJECTION OF BIDS The City reserves the right to reject any bid if the evidence submitted by the bidder, or if the investigation of such bidder, fails to satisfy the City that such bidder is properly qualified to carry out the obligations and to complete the work contemplated. Any or all proposals will be rejected, if there is reason to believe that collusion exists among bidders. A proposal shall be considered irregular and may be rejected, if it indicates serious omissions, alterations in form, additions not called for, conditions or unauthorized alternates, or irregularities of any kind. The City reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and to waive such technical errors as may be deemed best for the interests of the City.

Such bidder shall fulfill every stipulation as if it were the original party to whom award was made. The contract shall provide that the Vendor agrees to correct any defective or faulty work or material which may appear within one (1) year after completion of the work and receipt of the final payment.

There will be no varying from the specifications. HOURS OF WORK Due to the nature of the work and the need to service the public, evening and weekend work may be required.

WORK PERFORMED DURING WORK HOURS All precautions must be taken to ensure the safety of City employees and the public while working near, in, around or over them.

stop the WORK shall not give rise to any duty on the part of the OWNER to exercise this right for the benefit of the VENDOR or any other party. TERMINATION The agreement described hereafter may be terminated by either party upon 30 days written notice to the other party. CUSTOMER RELATIONS The Vendor, all its employees and subcontractors under the supervision and control of the Vendor shall at all times at a site, office, or yard be required to conduct themselves in a professional and courteous manner and do all things necessary to insure good and harmonious customer relations. Continuous failure to abide by this requirement shall constitute a basis for termination of this agreement.

The City of North Lauderdale will award payment at the conclusion of the work, and upon full acceptance. CONFIDENTIALITY - All documentation, bids or quotes not in the Public Domain will be kept confidential. EXCUSABLE INCLEMENT WEATHER DELAYS A. The Contract Time will be extended for as many calendar days in excess of the average number of days of excusable inclement weather as defined in Paragraph entitled, Excusable Inclement Weather Delays, as the VENDOR is specifically required under the provisions of the Technical Specifications to suspend operations, or as many calendar days as the VENDOR is prevented by excusable inclement weather , or conditions resulting immediately there from, from proceeding with at least 75 per cent of the normal labor and equipment force engaged on the WORK. Excusable inclement weather is any weather condition, the duration of which varies in excess of the average conditions expected, which is unusual for the particular time and place where the WORK is to be performed, or which could not have been reasonably anticipated by the VENDOR, as determined from U.S. Weather Bureau records for the preceding 3-year period. No extensions of Contract Time will be allowed for any inclement weather that could reasonably have been predicted from such weather records. Should the VENDOR prepare to begin work at the regular starting time at the beginning of any regular work shift on any day on which excusable inclement weather, or the conditions resulting from the weather, or the condition of the WORK prevents work from beginning at the usual starting time, and the work force is dismissed as a result thereof, the VENDOR will not be charged for a working day whether or not conditions change thereafter during said day, and the major portion of the day could be considered to be suitable for such work operations. The VENDOR shall base its work schedule upon the inclusion of the number of days of excusable inclement weather specified in Paragraph entitled Excusable Inclement Weather Delays of the Supplementary General Conditions. No extension of the Contract Time due to excusable inclement weather will be considered until after said number of days of excusable inclement weather has been reached. However, no reduction in Contract Time would be made if said number of days of excusable inclement weather is not reached.
