1. All work involved with PROJECT shall be inspected by DISTRICT and
CITY, and shall not be deemed complete until DISTRICT and CITY mutually agree in writing

done on PROJECT but shall provide any comments to DISTRICT personnel who shall be solely
responsible for all quality control communications with DEVELOPER's contractor(s) during the
construction of PROJECT.
3. DEVELOPER shall complete construction of PROJECT within twelve (12)
consecutive months a"fter execution of this Agreement and within one hundred twenty (120)
consecutive calendar days after commencing work on PROJECT. It is expressly understood that
since time is of the essence in this Agreement, failure of DEVELOPER to perform the work
within the agreed upon time shall constitute authority for DISTRICT to perform the remaining
work and require DEVELOPER's surety to pay to CITY the penal sum of any and all bonds. In
which case, CITY shall subsequently reimburse DISTzuCT for DISTRICT costs incurred.
4. If DEVELOPER fails to commence construction of PROJECT within nine

that materially affects PROJECT function or DISTRICT's ability to operate and maintain

PLANS as deemed necessary by DISTRICT.
5. DISTRICT shall endeavor to issue DEVELOPER a Notice to Proceed
within twenty (20) days of receipt of DEVELOPER's complete written notice, as set forth in
Section I.8.; however, DISTRICT's construction inspection staff is limited and therefore, the
issuance ofa Notice to Proceed is subject to staff availability.
In the event DEVELOPER wishes to expedite issuance of a Notice to
Proceed, DEVELOPER may elect to fumish an independent qualified construction inspector at
DEVELOPERs sole cost and expense. DEVELOPER shall fumish appropriate documentation
of the individual's credentials and experience to DISTRICT for review and if appropriate,
approval. DISTRICT shall review the individual's qualifications and experience and, upon
approval thereof, said individual, hereinafter called "DEPUTY INSPECTOR", shalt be
authorized to act on DISTRICT's behalf on all PRoJECT construction and quality control
matters. If DEVELOPER's initial constnrction inspection deposit fumished pusuant to Section
I.3. exceeds ten thousand dollars ($10,000), DISTRICT shall refund to DEVELOPER up to
eighty percent (80%) of DEVELOPER's initial inspection deposit within forty-five (45) days of
DISTRICT's approval of DEPUTY INSPECTOR; however, a minimum balance of ten thousand
dollars ($10,000) shall be retained on account.
6. PROJECT construction work shall be on a five (5) day, forty (40) hour work
week with no work on Saturdays, Sundays or DISTRICT designated legal holidays, unless
otherwise approved in writing by DISTRICT. If DEVELOPER feels it is necessary to work more

request for permission from DISTRICT and CITY to work the additional hours. The request
shall be submitted to DISTRICT and CITY at least seventy-two (72) hours prior to t}re requested

DEVELOPER has provided to CITY the appropriate form of dismissal (or similar document)
relieving CITY lrom any liability for the claim, proceeding or action involved, and CITY
