3 <br /> <br /> <br />D. Change Orders. <br />1. The City’s Project Manager reserves the right to change the Work at any time. <br />This may be done only in writing, through field directives, or otherwise. Such <br />changes shall not invalidate the Contract, and the Contractor agrees to perform <br />the Work as changed. The Contractor shall not proceed with a change to the <br />Work without a written directive from the City’s Project Manager. <br />2. Changes to the Work may result in an increase or decrease in Contract Price or <br />Contract Time. If the Contractor and the City agree on changes to Contract Price <br />or Contract Time, the Contractor and the City shall execute an agreed change <br />order. However, if the Contractor and the City do not agree, the City may, in its <br />sole discretion, issue a unilateral change order changing the scope of Work and <br />making any adjustments to the Contract Price and Contract Time in such amount <br />and for such time as the City thinks appropriate. Any Contractor contract claim <br />arising from such a unilateral change order must comply with contract claims <br />provisions set forth in the Contract Documents. The Mayor will sign all change <br />orders on behalf of the City. <br />3. As directed in writing by the City’s Project Manager, minor changes to the Work <br />may proceed prior to execution of a change order. Substantial changes in the <br />Work will often be negotiated and a change order executed before the City <br />directs the Contractor to proceed with the change. <br />E. Contract Claims. The Contractor shall provide written notice to the City of any contract <br />claim against the City relating to differing site conditions, protests, work orders, revision <br />of work orders, damages, expenses, costs, extra work, or anything else arising out of this <br />Contract. To the maximum extent allowed by law, a contract claim is foreve r waived if <br />such notice is not delivered to the City by the earlier of (A) the date that is thirty (30) <br />days after the discovery of the basis of such contract claim or (B) the date that is thirty <br />(30) days after completion of the Work at issue in the contr act claim. <br /> F. Subcontractor Responsibility. <br />The Contractor must obtain the written consent of the City’s Project Manager prior to <br />entering into any subcontract under this contract. The Contractor shall include the <br />language of this section in each of its first-tier subcontracts and shall require each of its <br />subcontractors to include the same language of this section in each of their <br />subcontracts, adjusting only as necessary the terms used for the contracting parties. <br />The requirements of this section apply to all subcontractors regardless of tier. <br />At the time of the execution of any subcontract, the Contractor shall verify that each of <br />its first-tier subcontractors meets the following bidder responsibility criteria by requiring <br />each subcontractor to:
