COUNTY?

CHANCE IT COULD BE MISUSED.

CAMERAS ARE DESIGNED TO HELP SOLVE CRIME.
SANTINA DEMING - CAN THERE BE AN ORDINANCE THAT PROTECTS OUR PRIVACY?

O\1D SOLUTIONS I AGREEMENT FOR PROFESSIONAL SER\1CES

EXHIBIT A
Contract between Taylor County, a political subdivision of the State of Florida, ORGANIZATION, and OVID
Solutions, LLC, CONTRACTOR. The following tasks may be performed by CONTRACTOR at the request of the
ORGANIZATION.

TASK 1: GENERAL GRANT MANAGEMENT AFTER AWARD
At the request of the ORGANIZATION, the CONTRACTOR will coordinate on the management of grant agreements
and provide advisory services once grants are awarded.
OVID understands that, in some cases, for a client to use grant funds for third-party grant management services,
those services may need to be procured in accordance with applicable federal, state, or funding-source
requirements. Any engagement of OVID for post-award grant management intended to be paid from grant funds
may therefore occur through a separate, competitively procured contract or other compliant procurement
method, as required by the funding source.
OVID provides comprehensive grant management services that can be tailored to each client's needs. These
services may include project start-up and compliance setup, grant agreement review, policy and procedure
development, environmental review coordination, procurement and bid support, financial tracking,
reimbursement support, monitoring and reporting, file organization, audit readiness, closeout support, and final
reporting. OVID may also provide targeted support for specific components such as NEPA environmental reviews,
periodic compliance reporting, or policy development.
Grant management services may include, as applicable to the funding source and authorized scope of work:
reviewing grant agreements and startup requirements; assisting with required forms and subm issions;
establishing grant filing systems; establishing financial procedures for receiving, depositing, disbursing, and
tracking grant funds; maintaining program files; assisting with procurement documentation and bid packages;
reviewing vendor payment requests and reimbursement requests; preparing reports required by the funding
agency; assisting with monitoring visits and responses; attending client or governing board meetings as needed;
and supporting grant closeout activities.
Because the level of effort for grant management often depends on the funding source, grant amount, project
complexity, construction activity, and reimbursement structure, CONTRACTOR and ORGANIZATION may discuss
estimated minimum or not-to-exceed hours for these services as part of grant development work or after award,
as appropriate.
Where the applicable funding source involves CDBG, HUD, FloridaCommerce, or similar community development
funding programs, supplemental grant management services may also be provided in accordance with Exhibit B, if
attached and incorporated into this Agreement or the applicable task order.

COMPENSATION AND RATE SCHEDULE: Compensation for services under this task shall be paid at the applicable
hourly rate(s} set forth below or as otherwise identified in the approved Scope of Work, task order, or
amendment. CONTRACTOR and ORGANIZATION may agree in writing upon a maximum amount per task in
advance of work beginning should the ORGANIZATION wish to establish a not-to-exceed amount.

7.0 DAVIS-BACON REQUIREMENTS:
1. Minimum Wages:
(i) All laborers and mechanics employed or working upon the site of the work will be paid unconditionally
and not less often than once a week, and without subsequent deduction or rebate on any account (except
such payroll deductions as are permitted by the Secretary of Labor under the Copeland Act (29 CFR Part
3)), the full amount of wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalent thereof) due at time of
payment computed at rates not less than those contained in the wage determination of the Secretary of
Labor which is attached hereto and made a part hereof, regardless of any contractual relationship which
may be alleged to exist between the CONTRACTOR and such laborers and mechanics.
Contributions made or costs reasonably anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits under section l(b)(2) of the
Davis-Bacon Act on behalf of laborers or mechanics are considered wages paid to such laborers or mechanics,
subject to the provisions of paragraph (l)(iv) of this section; also, regular contributions made or costs incurred for
more than a weekly period (but not less often than quarterly) under plans, funds, or programs which cover the
particular weekly period, are deemed to be constructively made or incurred during such weekly period. Such
laborers and mechanics shall be paid the appropriate wage rate and fringe benefits on the wage determination for
the classification of work actually performed, without regard to skill, except as provided in 29 CFR Part 5.S(a)(4).
Laborers or mechanics performing work in more than one classification may be compensated at the rate specified
for each classification for the time actually worked therein; provided that the employer's payroll records
accurately set forth the time spent in each classification in which work is performed. The wage determination
(including any additional classification and wage rates conformed under (l)(ii) of this section) and the Davis-Bacon
poster (WH-1321) shall be posted at all times by the CONTRACTOR and its subcontractors at the site of the work
in a prominent and accessible place where it can easily be seen by the workers.
(ii)(A) The contracting officer shall require that any class of laborers or mechanics, including helpers, which is not
listed in the wage determination and which is to be employed under the contract shall be classified in
conformance with the wage determination. The contracting officer shall approve an additional classification and
wage rate and fringe benefits therefor only when the following criteria have been met:
(1) The work to be performed by the classification requested is not performed by a classification in the wage
determination;
(2) The classification is utilized in the area by the construction industry; and the proposed wage rate, including any
bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable relationship to the wage rates contained in the wage determination.
(B) If the CONTRACTOR and the laborers and mechanics to be employed in the classification (if known), or their
representatives, and the contracting officer agree on the classification and wage rate (including the amount
designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of the action taken shall be sent by the contracting
officer to the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, Employment Standards Administration, U.S.
Department of Labor, Washington, DC 20210. The Administrator, or an authorized representative, will approve,
modify, or disapprove every additional classification action within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting
officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30-day period that additional time is necessary.
(C) In the event the CONTRACTOR, the laborers, or mechanics to be employed in the classification, or their
representatives, and the contracting officer do not agree on the proposed classification and wage rate (including

within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30day period that additional time is necessary.
(D) The wage rate (including fringe benefits where appropriate) determined pursuant to subparagraphs {l){ii)(B)
or (C) of this paragraph shall be paid to all workers performing work in the classification under this contract from
the first day on which work is performed in the classification.
(iii) Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the contract for a class of laborers or mechanics includes a
fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the CONTRACTOR shall either pay the benefit as stated in
the wage determination or shall pay another bona fide fringe benefit or an hourly cash equivalent thereof.
(iv) If the CONTRACTOR does not make payments to a trustee or other third person, the CONTRACTOR may
consider as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in
providing bona fide fringe benefits under a plan or program; provid.ed that the Secretary of Labor has found, upon
the written request of the CONTRACTOR, that the applicable standards of the Davis-Bacon Act have been met.
The Secretary of Labor may require the CONTRACTOR to set aside in a separate account assets for the meeting of
obligations under the plan or program .
2.

W ithholding: The Federal entity or the sponsor shall upon its own action or upon written request of an
authorized representative of the Department of Labor w ithhold or cause to be withheld from the
CONTRACTOR under this contract or any other Federal contract with the same prime CONTRACTOR, or
any other federally assisted contract subject to Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements, which is held
by the same prime CONTRACTOR, so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered
necessary to pay laborers and mechanics, including apprentices, tra inees, and helpers, employed by the
CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor the full amount of wages required by the contract. In the event of
fa ilure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice, trainee, or helper, employed or working
on the site of wo rk, all or pa rt of the wages required by the contract, the Federa l ent ity may, after written
notice to the CONTRACTOR, sponsor, applicant, or owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause
the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased.

3.

Payrolls and Basic Records:
(i) Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be maintained by the CONTRACTOR during the course
of the work and preserved for a period of three years thereafter for all laborers and mechanics working at
the site of the work. Such records shall contain the name, address, and social security number of each
such worker; his or her correct classification; hourly rates of wages paid (including rat es of contributions
or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in
1{b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act); daily and weekly number of hours worked; deductions made; and
actual wages paid . Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under 29 CFR 5.S{a)(l)(iv) that the wages
of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipat ed in providing benefits
under a plan or program described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act, the CONTRACTOR shall
maintain records that show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable, that the plan or
program is financially responsible, and that the plan or program has been communicat ed in writing to the
laborers or mechanics affected, and that show the costs anticipat ed or the actual costs incurred in
providing such benefits. CONTRACTORS employing apprentices or tra inees under approved programs shall
mainta in written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs and certification of trainee

(ii)(A) The CONTRACTOR shall submit weekly for each week in which any contract work is performed a
copy of all payrolls to the Federal entity if the agency is a party to the contract, but if the agency is not
such a party, the CONTRACTOR will submit the payrolls to the applicant, sponsor, or owner, as the case
may be, for transmission to the Federal Aviation Administration. The payrolls submitted shall set out
accurately and completely all of the information required to be maintained under 29 CFR 5.S(a)(3)(i),
except that full social security numbers and home addresses shall not be included on weekly transmittals.
Instead the payrolls shall only need to include an individually identifying number for each employee (e.g.,
the last four digits of the employee's social security number). The required weekly payroll information
may be submitted in any form desired. Optional Form WH-347 is available for this purpose from the Wage
and Hour Division website. The prime CONTRACTOR is responsible for the submission of copies of payrolls
by all subcontractors. CONTRACTORS and subcontractors shall maintain the full social security number
and current address of each covered worker and shall provide them upon request to the Federal entity if
the agency is a party to the contract, but if the agency is not such a party, the CONTRACTOR will submit
them to the applicant, sponsor, or owner, as the case may be, for transmission to the Federal entity, the
CONTRACTOR, or the Wage and Hour Division of the Department of Labor for purposes of an investigation
or audit of compliance with prevailing wage requirements. It is not a violation of this section for a prime
CONTRACTOR to require a subcontractor to provide addresses and social security numbers to the prime
CONTRACTOR for its own records, without weekly submission to the sponsoring government agency (or
the applicant, sponsor, or owner).
(B) Each payroll submitted shall be accompanied by a "Statement of Compliance," signed by the CONTRACTOR or
subcontractor or his or her agent who pays or supervises the payment of the persons employed under the
contract and shall certify the following:
(1) The payroll for the payroll period contains the information required to be provided under 29 CFR § 5.S(a)(3)(ii),
the appropriate information is being maintained under 29 CFR § 5.S(a)(3)(i), and that such information is correct
and complete;
(2) Each laborer and mechanic (including each helper, apprentice, and trainee) employed on the contract during .
the payroll period has been paid the full weekly wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly, and
that no deductions have been made either directly or indirectly from the full wages earned, other than
permissible deductions as set forth in Regulations 29 CFR Part 3;
(3) Each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates and fringe benefits or cash
equivalents for the classification of work performed, as specified in the applicable wage determination
incorporated into the contract.

(C) The weekly submission of a properly executed certification set forth on the reverse side of Optional Form WH347 shall satisfy the requirement for submission of the "Statement of Compliance" required by paragraph (3)(ii)(B)
of this section .
(D) The fa lsification of any of the above certifications may subject the CONTRACTOR or subcontractor to civil or
criminal prosecution under Section 1001 of Title 18 and Section 231 of Title 31 of the United States Code.
(iii) The CONTRACTOR or subcontractor shall make the records required under paragraph (3)(i) of this section

on the job. If the CONTRACTOR or subcontractor fails to submit the required records or to .make them available,
the Federal agency may, after written notice to the CONTRACTOR, sponsor, applicant, or owner, take such action

Page 21 of 29

Page 67 of 78

0\ 1D SOLUTIONS I .-\GREEMENT FOR PROFESSION.-\L SER\1CES

as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds.
Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon request or to make such records available may be
grounds for debarment action pursuant to 29 CFR 5.12.

4.

Apprentices and Trainees:
(i) Apprentices. Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work
they performed when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide
apprenticeship program registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training
Administration, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or with a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized
by the Bureau, or if a person is employed in his or her first 90 days of probationary employment as an
apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not individually registered in the program, but who
has been certified by the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where
appropriate) to be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice. The allowable ratio of
apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft classification shall not be greater than the ratio
permitted to the CONTRACTOR as to the entire work force under the registered program. Any worker
listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated
above, shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the
classification of work actually performed . In addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in
excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage
rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. Where a CONTRACTOR is performing
construction on a project in a locality other than that in which its program is registered, the ratios and
wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly rate) specified in the CONTRACTOR's or
subcontractor's registered program shall be observed. Every apprentice must be paid at not less than the
rate specified in the registered program for the apprentice's level of progress, expressed as a percentage
of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Apprentices shall be paid
fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship
program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe benefits
listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification. If the Administrator determines that a
different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid in accordance
with that determination. In the event the Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or a State
Apprenticeship Agency recogn ized by the Bureau, withdraws approval of an apprenticeship program, the
CONTRACTOR will no longer be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined
rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.

(ii) Trainees. Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will not be permitted to work at less than the
predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are employed pursuant to and individually
registered in a program which has received prior approval, evidenced by formal certification by the U.S.
Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. The ratio of trainees to journeymen on
the job site shall not be greater than permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and Training
Administration. Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved program for
the trainee's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the
applicable wage determination. Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of
the trainee program. If the trainee program does not mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the
full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and
Hour Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding
- - - ---+·OUTneymarrwa·ge-rate-orrth·e-wa-ge-ctetermtnatto-rrttrarproviuertortesrttra·rrfa1H'rtnge- tren·efrtno
apprentices. Any employee listed on the payroll at a trainee rate that is not registered and participating in
a training plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration shall be paid not less than the
applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In

Page 22 of 29

Page 68 of 78

O\lD SOLUTIONS I AGREEJ\,IENT FOR PROFESSIONAL SER\lCES

addition, any trainee performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered
program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work
actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a
training program, the CONTRACTOR will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the
applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.
(iii) Equal Employment Opportunity. The utilization of apprentices, trainees, and journeymen under this
part shall be in conformity with the equal employment opportunity requirements of Executive Order
11246, as amended, and 29 CFR Part 30.

or lower tier subcontractor with all the contract clauses in 29 CFR Part 5.5.
