Skills Hub. The Artist’s work must be of high quality, in compliance with generally accepted
standards of workmanship, and in conformity with this Agreement.
2. Time of Completion. The City will issue a Notice to Proceed. Artist must begin the Project
promptly upon receiving the Notice to Proceed and must fully complete the Project by
September 29, 2017. Any extensions of this time limit must be agreed to in writing by the
parties. The City will grant the Artist a reasonable extension of time if there is a delay on
the part of the City in performing its obligations under this Agreement or if conditions
beyond the Artist’s control or Acts of God render timely performance of the Artist’s
services impossible.
3. Capital Project Management Control System. To insure the Project is consistent with its
authorized scope and schedule, the Artist must provide an approximate schedule for
completing all unit work items covered by the Agreement. The schedule must show the
anticipated percentage completion of each unit work item for each week of the Project.
The Artist must submit the initial schedule to the City prior to beginning the work.
4. City Representative. On or before the date the City issues its Notice to Proceed the City
will designate its project representative who will make all necessary and proper decisions
regarding the Project within the scope of his or her authority. The Artist must direct all
requests for contract interpretations, change orders, or other clarification or instruction to
the City representative.

A. Changes by Artist. The Artist cannot change the Project specifications and drawings
in Exhibit “A” without advance written approval from the City.
B. Changes by the City. The City may request changes in the design and construction of

negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on any necessary changes in price or
scheduling. Once the parties have reached agreement, the City will issue a written
Change Order documenting the agreed upon terms. The Artist must not proceed with
work related to the requested change until the City issues the Change Order.

6. Formal Acceptance and Ownership of the Project. The Artist must notify the City when the
Project is fully installed and complete. No more than thirty (30) days after receiving such
notice, the City will provide the Artist a written response, informing the Artist that either:

of this Agreement, all other related work is completed in accordance with this
Agreement, and the City formally accepts the Project as completed (“Letter of
Acceptance”); or
(2) the City does not consider the Project to be completed due to unresolved issues or
defects that remain, and describing the outstanding issues or defects that the Artist
must cure before the City will issue a Letter of Acceptance.

a Letter of Acceptance. Once the City has issued a Letter of Acceptance the City will be
the sole owner of the Project, and the Artist will have no further obligations under this
Agreement, except as set forth in paragraphs 8, 9, 12, and 26.
7. Ownership of Works Created.

C. Rights under the Visual Artists’ Rights Act. To the extent the uses or removal of the

to do so within a reasonable time satisfactory to the City, the City has the right to arrange
for such replacement or correction, and Artist must reimburse the City for the costs of any
such replacement or correction. If the City asks Artist to repair damage caused to the
Project by vandalism, collision, extreme environmental conditions, or other unforeseeable
causes, the City will reimburse Artist for reasonable material and labor costs for such

agreed upon by the parties pursuant to Section 2. Recognizing the difficulty of
ascertaining the actual damages sustained by the City, the parties agree that the

EXHIBIT “A”
Art in Public Places Walk & Wheel Skills Hub Project
Project Overview:
The City of Fort Collins is constructing a “Skills Hub” using a portion of Summitview Church’s
parking lot at Drake & Dunbar, which is uniquely situated next to Rolland Moore Park, Natural
Areas, the Spring Creek and Spring Creek Trail. The Skills Hub will be a place for the public to
practice bicycling and walking skills using a course designed around real-world traffic situations.
The Hub also brings together other innovative demonstrations, partnerships, and Fort Collins
initiatives, such as Nature in the City landscaping and this Art in Public Places project.
The Skills Hub will convert an existing parking lot into a “bicycle and pedestrian traffic course”
through striping and signs. The scope of the APP
project includes the following:
Painted mural (on asphalt) within a striped
roundabout (approx. 20’ in diameter) – see
picture
Painted car(s) (on asphalt) with open door in
the striped parking area (to simulate the
“door zone” issue with bicycling next to
parked cars)
Nature in the City wayfinding elements (to
serve as a pilot for future locations) – Artist
will create 3 different designs with stencils
Weather permitting, artist will complete the roundabout mural and three wayfinding
design concepts by August 29 (for public feedback at the Skills Hub launch).
