If, through no fault of Design/Builder, final completion of the Work is significantly delayed, Owner shall, upon receipt of Design/Builder's final Application for Payment, and without terminating the Agreement, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining balance to be held by Owner for Work not fully completed or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in the Agreement, and if Bonds have been furnished as required in paragraph 5.01.A, the written consent of the surety to the payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by Design/Builder to Owner with the EJCDC D-700 Standard General Conditions of the Contract Between Owner and Design/Builder Copyright ©2002 National Society of Professional Engineers for EJCDC.

In such case Design/Builder 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 Owner arising out of or resulting from completing the Work (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) such excess will be paid to Design/Builder. If such claims, costs, losses and damages exceed such unpaid balance, Design/Builder shall pay the difference to Owner. Such claims, costs, losses and damages incurred by Owner will be incorporated in a Change Order. When exercising any rights or remedies under this paragraph Owner shall not be required to obtain the lowest price for the Work performed. C. Notwithstanding paragraph 14.02.B, Design/ Builder's services will not be terminated if Design/Builder 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 Design/Builder's services have been so terminated by Owner, the termination will not affect any rights or remedies of Owner against Design/Builder then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any retention or payment of moneys due Design/Builder by Owner will not release Design/Builder from liability. 14.03 Owner May Terminate for Convenience A. Upon seven days' written notice to Design/Builder, Owner may, without cause and without prejudice to any other right or remedy of Owner, elect to terminate the Contract. In such case, Design/Builder shall be paid (without duplication of any items) for: 1.

Page 1 of 7 CITY OF FORT COLLINS ADDENDUM No. 3 SPECIFICATIONS AND CONTRACT DOCUMENTS Description of Bid: P954 Police Services Facility – Design/Build OPENING DATE: 3:00 P.M. (Our Clock) December 13, 2004 To all prospective proposers under the specifications and contract documents described above, the following changes are herby made. A. DESIGN/BUILD SERVICES The Design/Build Team shall design a facility that is: state-of-the-art for Police Facilities; innovative, yet practical; and constructible, without discipline conflicts. The City expects the construction to be: of the highest quality, utilizing the latest construction processes; durable and maintainable; built with the most innovative products and systems; constructed within the timeframe proposed; and under budget. The City expects the BEST possible Police Services Facility that can be designed and built! B. DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS The design and construction of our Police Services Facility will meet or exceed the policies and standards provided by the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Activities (CALEA). Additionally, the crime lab will conform to the American Society of Crime Lab Directors/Lab Accreditation standards, attached as Attachment “A”. Information on these policies and standards will be provided at the November 16th Pre-proposal Meeting. This facility will also meet the City’s Building Design Standards and the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) standards. The updated City of Fort Collins Building Design Standards Manual (2004) will also be available at the November 16th Pre-proposal Meeting. C. SPACE PLANNING Each design/build team is receiving the Space Plan that was developed in September 2000 as Attachment “B”. The single facility information should be used. Attachment “C” provides the current staffing plan for Police Services that should be used in conjunction with the Space Plan. Your conceptual (schematic) design should be based upon this information. The successful Design/Build Team will need to update the Space Plan to the current and projected needs of Police Services. D. COMMUNICATIONS AND SECURITY SYSTEMS Given the current state of society, the communications and security systems for this facility will be a major component of the project. The communications installations shall conform to the City’s Information Technology Standards. Coordination of these systems during the design phase will be critical. We anticipate different levels of security starting with the site, the main lobby, and within the facility – police area, escorted police areas, staff only areas, restricted to certain staff, and detainee areas. The revised City of Fort Collins Information Technology Standards will be available at the November 16th Pre-proposal Meeting. Page 2 of 7 E. SIGNAGE Building signage, including the site, is an important factor in the functioning of the facility. This work will need to be coordinated in detail during the design phase. F. EMERGENCY GENERATOR The facility shall have an emergency generator capable of operating certain areas of the facility during power outages. This work will need to be coordinated, in detail, during the design phase. G. CRITICAL AREAS OF DESIGN The communication center, short term holding area, evidence storage area, and the crime laboratory will be critical areas. This work will need to be coordinated, in detail, during the design phase. H. DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION PROCESS 1. The Design/Build Team’s project manager will take a very strong leadership role on this project. All communications with the City of Fort Collins on the project will go through this person. This approach will be followed throughout the project. The expectation is this person will schedule all meetings (City anticipates weekly design and construction meetings), develop minutes with “action items” for follow-up on all decisions, and provide leadership during this entire process. 2. The Police Facilities Architect, as well as the appropriate design consultants, will play a major role during both the design and construction process. The City’s expectation is the designers will design and recommend the appropriate materials, products, etc. The general contractor and associated sub-contractors will provide their input, review the design and price this information. Substitutions of any products or systems incorporated in the design will be discussed with all parties. 3. It is anticipated that the PDP submission will have been sufficiently prepared and coordinate ahead of time that it will enable us to go to the FDP with one round of comments. The local planning consultant will play a major role in meeting the requirements of the City Plan. The civil design will support this intent by providing drawings that are to a level of detail and accuracy that when submitted for City review, they will eliminate as many questions as possible by the City staff. 5. The City’s Project Manager will be informed of all contacts with the City staff and will participate with the Design/Build Team through the development review process. This same approach will apply to contacts with the Police Services Department. At the “kick off” design meeting, a flow chart for the above process will be developed. 6. Major materials and product decisions will be made during the design phase. Therefore, some shop drawings will be required. For items not approved during the design phase, a limited specification will be required for the general contractor and the standard shop drawing/submittal approval process will be used. 7. The appropriate City staff from our Facilities Maintenance organization will be involved at “key” times during the design process to ensure that the products and systems being Page 3 of 7 installed are compatible with other such products/systems within other City facilities and are maintainable. 8. Utility Services personnel will be involved in the Sustainable Design process as well as the Commissioning process. I. EXISTING BOUNDARY SURVEY Contact Jim Allen Morley (Stantec) at 970-482-5922 for the AutoCad drawings of the existing boundary survey and existing topographic map at the site. He will send this information to you electronically. Stantec is currently designing the infrastructure (roads, etc.) around the site. You are welcome to contact them for a current plat of the entire site, which will show the net acreage for our facility. J. SOILS REPORT A copy of the preliminary soils report, dated July 28, 2000, prepared by CTL Thompson, is provided as Attachment “D”. The City has employed the services of CTL Thompson to obtain a more site specific soils report that will be provided at the November 16th Pre-proposal Meeting. The City will employ the services of CTL Thompson further, as required, once the Site Plan has been developed. K. PHASE I ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT The Phase I Environmental Assessment is provided as Attachment “E”. No additional assessment or evaluation will be required. L.

Can we obtain the layout for the streets surrounding this lot? Yes, from Jim Allen Morley at Stantec (970)-482-5922. 23. Should we use the 1997 Uniform Building Code as the basis for the design? Yes, as augmented by the City of Fort Collins 1997 Uniform Code Amendments. 24. Do we need to include contingency in our GMP, or will the City hold all of the contingency? Each Team needs to include their construction contingency in their GMP. The City will hold additional contingency for other changed requirements. 22.
