payments, will equal ninety seven percent (97%) of the contract price of the contract. Final payment
of the remaining three percent (3%) will be made not less than thirty-one (31) days after
completion and acceptance by resolution of the City Council of the completed contract, subject to
the conditions and in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 573 of the Code of Iowa, as
amended. No such partial or final payments will be due until the Contractor has certified to the City
that the materials, labor and services involved in each estimate have been paid for in accordance

Page 19 of 177

with the requirements stated in the specifications. The request for payment may also include an
allowance for the cost of such major materials and equipment which are suitably stored either at or
near the site. Proof of purchase amount and verification of insurance for stored materials must be
provided with any request for payment of stored materials. By virtue of statutory authority,
preference will be given to products and provisions grown and coal produced within the State of
Iowa and to Iowa domestic labor. In accordance with Iowa statutes, a resident bidder shall be
allowed a preference as against a nonresident bidder from a state or foreign country if that state or
foreign country gives or requires any preference to bidders from that state or foreign country,
including but not limited to any preference to bidders, the imposition of any type of labor force
preference, or any other form of preferential treatment to bidders or laborers from that state or
foreign country. The preference allowed shall be equal to the preference given or required by the
state or foreign country in which the nonresident bidder is a resident. In the instance of a resident
labor force preference, a nonresident bidder shall apply the same resident labor force preference to
a public improvement in this state as would be required in the construction of a public improvement
by the state or foreign country in which the nonresident bidder is a resident. In accordance with the
requirements of the Iowa Department of Labor, all bidders must submit a fully completed Bidder
Status Form. The Bidder Status Form must be included with and is considered an essential
attachment to the Proposal. Any Proposal that does not include a fully completed Bidder Status
Form may result in the Proposal being determined non-responsive and rejected. If it is determined
that adherence to these Iowa statutory requirements may cause denial of federal funds which would
otherwise be available for a public improvement or would otherwise be inconsistent with
requirements of any federal law or regulation, the application of Iowa Code Chapters 73 and 73A
shall be suspended to the extent necessary to prevent denial of the funds or to eliminate the
inconsistency with federal requirements. NB-3 561176 The City of LeClaire reserves the right to
reject any or all bids, to waive informalities, and to enter into such contract, or contracts, as it shall
deem to be in the best interest of the City.

NB-2
561176

Page 26 of 177

payments shall in no way be construed as an act of acceptance for any part of the work partially
or totally completed. Upon completion of the work and its acceptance by the Council, the
Contractor will be paid an amount which, together with previous payments, will equal ninetyseven percent (97%) of the contract price of the contract. Final payment of the remaining three
percent (3%) will be made not less than thirty-one (31) days after completion and acceptance by
resolution of the City Council of the completed contract, subject to the conditions and in
accordance with the provisions of Chapter 573 of the Code of Iowa, as amended. No such partial

labor and services involved in each estimate have been paid for in accordance with the
requirements stated in the specifications.
The request for payment may also include an allowance for the cost of such major materials and
equipment which are suitably stored either at or near the site. Proof of purchase amount and
verification of insurance for stored materials must be provided with any request for payment of

requires any preference to bidders from that state or foreign country, including but not limited
to any preference to bidders, the imposition of any type of labor force preference, or any other
form of preferential treatment to bidders or laborers from that state or foreign country. The
preference allowed shall be equal to the preference given or required by the state or foreign
country in which the nonresident bidder is a resident. In the instance of a resident labor force
preference, a nonresident bidder shall apply the same resident labor force preference to a public
improvement in this state as would be required in the construction of a public improvement by
the state or foreign country in which the nonresident bidder is a resident.
In accordance with the requirements of the Iowa Department of Labor, all bidders must submit a
fully completed Bidder Status Form. The Bidder Status Form must be included with and is
considered an essential attachment to the Proposal. Any Proposal that does not include a fully
completed Bidder Status Form may result in the Proposal being determined non-responsive and
rejected.
If it is determined that adherence to these Iowa statutory requirements may cause denial of
federal funds which would otherwise be available for a public improvement or would otherwise
be inconsistent with requirements of any federal law or regulation, the application of Iowa Code
Chapters 73 and 73A shall be suspended to the extent necessary to prevent denial of the funds
or to eliminate the inconsistency with federal requirements.

purpose intended, will be at Owner’s sole risk and without liability or legal exposure
to Engineer or to its officers, directors, members, partners, agents, employees, and
Subconsultants;

c.

Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless Engineer and its officers, directors,
members, partners, agents, employees, and Subconsultants from all claims,
damages, losses, and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising out of or resulting
from any use, reuse, or modification of the Documents without written verification,
completion, or adaptation by Engineer; and

not seek contribution from insurance maintained by the additional insured.

C.

Owner shall procure and maintain insurance as set forth in Exhibit G.

D.

Owner shall require Contractor to purchase and maintain policies of insurance covering
workers' compensation, general liability, motor vehicle damage and injuries, and other
insurance necessary to protect Owner's and Engineer's interests in the Project. Owner shall
require Contractor to cause Engineer, its Subconsultants, and Engineer’s Subcontractors to
be listed as additional insureds with respect to such liability insurance purchased and
maintained by Contractor for the Project. Owner shall give Engineer access to any certificates
of insurance and copies of endorsements and policies obtained by Owner from Contractor.

provisions to the effect that in the event of payment of any loss or damage the insurers will
have no rights of recovery against any insured thereunder or against Engineer, its
Subconsultants, or Engineer’s Subcontractors. Owner and Engineer waive all rights against
each other, Contractor, Engineer’s Subcontractors and Subconsultants, and the respective
officers, directors, members, partners, employees, agents, consultants, and subcontractors
of each and any of them, for all losses and damages caused by, arising out of, or resulting
from any of the perils or causes of loss covered by any such builder’s risk or similar policy and
any other property insurance relating to the Project. Owner and Engineer shall take
appropriate measures in other Project-related contracts to secure waivers of rights
consistent with those set forth in this paragraph.

H.

All policies of insurance must contain a provision or endorsement that the coverage afforded
will not be canceled, and that renewal will not be refused, until at least 10 days’ prior written
notice has been given to the primary insured. Upon receipt of such notice, the primary
insured must promptly forward a copy of the notice to the other party to this Agreement and

Undisclosed Constituents of Concern: For purposes of this Paragraph 6.09, the presence at
or adjacent to the Site of Constituents of Concern that were not disclosed to Engineer
pursuant to Paragraph 6.09.A, in such quantities or circumstances that such Constituents of
Concern may present a danger to persons or property exposed to them, will be referred to
as “undisclosed” Constituents of Concern.
1.

The presence at the Site of materials that are necessary for the execution of the Work,
or that are to be incorporated in the Work, and that are controlled and contained
pursuant to industry practices, Laws and Regulations, and the requirements of this

Page 98 of 177

2.

Constituents of Concern that are to be located, identified, studied, removed, or
remediated as part of the services under this Agreement are not undisclosed
Constituents of Concern.

3.

Constituents of Concern that are to be located, identified, studied, removed, or
remediated as part of the services under another professional services contract for
Owner, or as part of the work under a construction or remediation contract, are not
undisclosed Constituents of Concern if Engineer has been informed of the general scope
of such contract.

C.

If Engineer encounters or learns of an undisclosed Constituent of Concern at the Site, then
Engineer shall notify (1) Owner and (2) appropriate authorities having jurisdiction if Engineer
reasonably concludes that doing so is required by applicable Laws or Regulations.

D.

It is acknowledged by both parties that Engineer’s scope of services does not include any
services related to undisclosed Constituents of Concern. If Engineer or any other party
encounters, uncovers, or reveals an undisclosed Constituent of Concern, or if encountered,
uncovered, or revealed Constituents of Concern are present in substantially greater
quantities or substantially different locations than disclosed or anticipated, or if investigative
or remedial action, or other professional services, are necessary or required by applicable
Laws and Regulations with respect to such Constituents of Concern, then Engineer may, at
its option and without liability for direct, consequential, or any other damages, suspend
performance of services on the portion of the Project adversely affected thereby until such
portion of the Project is no longer so affected; and Owner shall promptly determine whether
to retain a qualified expert to evaluate such condition or take any necessary corrective
action.

E.

If the presence at the Site of undisclosed Constituents of Concern, or of Constituents of
Concern in substantially greater quantities or in substantially different locations than
disclosed or anticipated, adversely affects the performance of Engineer’s services under this
Agreement, then:

F.

1.

if the adverse effects do not preclude Engineer from completing its Project services in
general accordance with this Agreement on unaffected or marginally affected portions
of the Project, Engineer may accept an equitable adjustment in its compensation or in
the time of completion, or both; and the Agreement will be amended to reflect changes
necessitated by the presence of such Constituents of Concern; or

2.

if the adverse effects are of such materiality to the overall performance of Engineer that
it cannot complete its services without significant changes to the scope of services, time
of completion, and compensation, then Engineer may terminate this Agreement for
cause on 7 days’ written notice.

Owner acknowledges that Engineer is performing professional services for Owner and that
Engineer is not and will not be required to become an "owner," “arranger,” “operator,”
“generator,” or “transporter” of hazardous substances, as defined in the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), as amended, which are
or may be encountered at or near the Site in connection with Engineer’s activities under this
Agreement.

to, or resulting from a Constituent of Concern at, on, or under the Site, provided that:
1.

party’s total liability to the other party and anyone claiming by, through, or under the other
party for any cost, loss, or damages caused in part by the negligence of the party and in part
by the negligence of the other party or any other negligent entity or individual, will not
exceed the percentage share that the party’s negligence bears to the total negligence of
Owner, Engineer, and all other negligent entities and individuals.

E.

Mutual Waiver: To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, Owner and Engineer
waive against each other, and the other’s officers, directors, members, partners, agents,

indemnifications, and limitations of liability included in this Agreement will survive its
completion or termination for any reason.

C.

Severability: Any provision or part of the Agreement held to be void or unenforceable under
any Laws or Regulations will be deemed stricken, and all remaining provisions will continue
to be valid and binding upon Owner and Engineer.

D.

No Waiver: A party’s non-enforcement of any provision will not constitute a waiver of that
provision, nor will it affect the enforceability of that provision or of the remainder of this

Article 1 of the Agreement, Services of Engineer, is supplemented to include the following provisions:
Baseline Information: Owner has furnished the following Project information to Engineer as of the
Effective Date. Engineer’s scope of services has been developed based on this information. As the Project
moves forward, some of the information may change or be refined, and additional information will
become known, resulting in the possible need to change, refine, or supplement the scope of services.
Owner has obtained funding in part through Iowa DOT with $671,616 in federal aid through the
Transportation Alternatives Set-Aside Program (TASA). A shared-use path and pedestrian bridge will be
created along 35th Street between 195th Street and Wisconsin Street. The utilization of Iowa DOT funding
requires development of plans utilizing Iowa DOT procedures and criteria as well as bidding through Iowa
DOT. Construction on the Iowa DOT I-80 right of way will also require review and permitting by Iowa DOT
District 6. Coordination will also need to occur with Bi-State MPO.
The Engineer understands the trail along 35th Street is intended to be constructed primarily within the
existing right-of-way and that the typical section of the path includes a 10-foot-wide trail, with 3-inch HMA
and 8-inch granular subbase. Drainage will be managed through existing swales, storm sewer, and
culverts. Based on conceptual designs, most of the grading south of I-80 has already occurred, but surveys
will confirm if the previously performed grading is adequate. A new pedestrian bridge over I-80 is
proposed, and the Owner desires the bridge to have aesthetic elements considered with the design.
Coordination on the route and grading for the proposed trail north of I-80 to connect with the existing
Wisconsin Street trail near the roundabout and Pleasant Valley Junior High School will be required. Utility
coordination with private utilities with facilities along the corridor will also be required.
The project approach will build off the grant application concept with the concept statement and
preliminary design phases, during which we will collaborate closely with the Owner and Iowa DOT due to
the pedestrian bridge crossing over the Iowa DOT I-80 corridor and piers needing to be placed within the
DOT-controlled right of way. This early coordination will allow assessment of the trail corridor for any
factors or design alternatives and confirm the trail design criteria required to meet the TASA funding
requirements.

During the preliminary design phase, an opinion of probable construction costs will be evaluated. Once
the project limits and preferred design for both the trail and pedestrian bridge are confirmed, we will
proceed with final design, and bidding, in accordance with Iowa DOT’s process.
Engineer shall provide Basic and Additional Services as set forth below.
ARTICLE 1—BASIC SERVICES

B. Complete topographic field survey of existing features along the Project corridor. The
purpose of the topographic survey is to provide the survey data required to complete
preliminary and final design of the proposed trail and bridge. Owner will provide Engineer
any documentation the City of LeClaire can obtain and provide, including AutoCAD format
files of the existing of 35th Street right of way created by others. The boundary survey and
right of way establishment under this scope is needed to determine the I-80 right of way
location and support the creation of up to two permanent easements along 35th Street. The
survey will include the following:
i.
Contact Iowa One Call for utility locates and to determine utility owners along the
corridor.
ii.
Establish vertical and horizontal project control.
iii.
Perform a field topographic survey along 35th Street to obtain spot elevations
necessary to generate accurate digital terrain model; locate visible surface features
including but not limited to ditch lines and slopes, fences, driveways, culverts and
storm sewer, utility poles, signs, overhead wires and cables, edge of wooded areas,
edges of fields, individual trees over 6-inch caliper, and underground utilities as
marked by Iowa One Call. The approximate extent of the topographic survey
includes the terrain within the west side of the 35th Street right of way to the west
edge of pavement on 35th Street from 195th Street to Wisconsin Street, more or less,
for about 4000 LF. This includes the features within the I-80 right of way at just west
of the 35th Street bridge at the proposed pedestrian bridge location.
iv.
Perform document research and conduct field survey to recover right of way
monuments and 2 section corners to allow establishment of the existing I-80 right of
way to allow for determination of temporary construction easement needs and
potential full easements between I-80 and the intersection of SW 35th Street and
Wisconsin Street. Any flagger protection or other permissions for work on Iowa DOT
right of way is assumed to be provided by Iowa DOT at no cost to the Engineer.
C. Create a base drawing incorporating both topographic and boundary survey (including
existing 35th Street right of way provided by others) for use in road and structure design.
D. Investigation for Concept Statement:
i.
Submit a request for Phase 1A archeological investigation to the Office of the State
Archeologist.
ii.
Submit a request for endangered species database information to US Fish and
Wildlife Service and the Iowa DNR.
E. Develop a preliminary design to determine the proposed horizontal and vertical alignment
for a 10’ wide trail along SW 35th Street from the parking lot of the golf facility/ brewery on
195th Street and SW 35th Street to connection to pedestrian facilities north of Wisconsin
Street on the School District property including the location for a pedestrian bridge across
Iowa I-80. Grading for the trail is anticipated to extend out of the existing right of way near
the north end of the project and temporary and/or permanent easement needs will be
determined.
F. Upon receipt of Owner concurrence of the proposed structure location and extents of trail
construction, prepare Concept Statement and endangered species determination of effect
(DOE).
G. Develop three conceptual designs for the I-80 crossing that would include distinct aesthetic
elements in each option. These three designs will be rendered and be utilized to develop
the final design concept. All alternatives are anticipated to include custom concrete

abutments and piers, with alternative span types to include prefabricated structure
components or concrete beam spans. Alternatives will consider cast-in-place concrete
aesthetic treatments, railing alternatives, and other potential custom components.
Comparative cost estimates will be developed for the bridge options.
H. Prepare a summary memo of bridge options. Attend and present at a LeClaire city council
meeting to provide an update on project progress and obtain input including selection of
preferred bridge concept.
I. Preliminary plans and a preliminary opinion of probable construction costs will be prepared
for review by the Owner. Engineer’s opinions of probable Construction Cost are to be made
on the basis of Engineer’s experience, qualifications, and general familiarity with the
construction industry. However, because the Engineer has no control over the cost of labor,
materials, equipment, or services furnished by others, or over contractors’ methods of
determining prices, or over competitive bidding or market conditions, the Engineer cannot
and does not guarantee that proposals, bids, or actual Construction Cost will not vary from
opinions of probable Construction Cost prepared by Engineer. If Owner requires greater
assurance as to probable Construction Cost, then Owner agrees to obtain an independent
cost estimate.
J. Following initial evaluations, input, and decisions from the Owner, the preliminary plans and
checklist will be submitted to Iowa DOT through the web-based TPDEV program.
K. Coordinate with Iowa DOT to obtain input on design and key details such as temporary
traffic control, sign relocation, and permits to allow trail bridge construction within I-80 right
of way.
L. Provide preliminary plans to utilities to allow them to evaluate potential conflicts and
ensure proper agreements, notice, or permits can be obtained. Coordinate with utilities on
any adjustments required. Utilities will be responsible for coordination and obtaining
permits required from Iowa DOT or City for self-performed adjustments to their facilities to
resolve conflicts.
M. The following deliverables will be provided to Owner as the result of this Preliminary Design
Phase :
i.
Concept Statement including Determination of Effect documentation.
ii.
Summary Memorandum of Bridge Options, renderings, and comparative costs
iii.

EXHIBIT B—DELIVERABLES SCHEDULE
The project will be bid through the Iowa DOT following the process outlined in the Instructional
Memorandums (IMs) to allow for Iowa DOT review. Engineer understands the project is classified by
Iowa DOT as a “Federal Aid Major” project and will need to follow DOT project development submittal
dates. Engineer also understands that the funding agreement indicates Owner must have let the
contract within 5 years of Federal Fiscal Year 2026.
The design contract award is anticipated in June 2026, with a professional services agreement between
Engineer and the Owner executed before June 16, 2026. Design would be completed in 2027. Bidding is
anticipated in late 2027 or early 2028. Allowing construction anytime from late 2027 through end of
summer 2029 may improve bid competitiveness, depending on contractor availability.
Anticipating an October 2027 bid letting, the schedule per Iowa DOT IM 3.010 would be as follows:
▪ Concept Statement submittal prior to October 20, 2026.
▪ Preliminary Plan submittal prior to April 20, 2027.
▪ Check Plan submittal prior to June 1, 2027.
▪ Final Plan submittal prior to July 20, 2027.
▪ Bidding: October 19, 2027.
▪ Construction: 2028.

Rules (subject to the conditions and limitations of this Exhibit H Paragraph 1.01). This
agreement to arbitrate will be specifically enforceable under the prevailing law of any court
having jurisdiction.

B.

Arbitration Provisions
1.

Notice of the demand for arbitration must be filed in writing with the other party to the
Agreement and with the selected arbitration administrator. The demand must be made
within a reasonable time after the Dispute has arisen. In no event may the demand for
arbitration be made after the date when institution of legal or equitable proceedings
based on such Dispute would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations.

2.

The arbitrator(s) must be licensed engineers, architects, contractors, attorneys, or
construction managers. Hearings will take place pursuant to the standard procedures of
the Construction Arbitration Rules that contemplate in-person hearings. The arbitrators
will have no authority to award punitive or other damages not measured by the
prevailing party's actual damages, except as may be required by statute or the
Agreement. Any award in an arbitration initiated under this clause will be limited to
monetary damages and include no injunction or direction to any party other than the
direction to pay a monetary amount.

3.

If the applicable arbitration rules require a preliminary mediation, but the parties have
already participated in mediation with respect to the Dispute, then the second
mediation is not required.

4.

The rules of any arbitration must be supplemented to include the following: The award
rendered by the arbitrators must be in writing, and include (a) a precise breakdown of
the award, and (b) a written explanation of the award specifically citing the Agreement
provisions deemed applicable and relied on in making the award.

5.

The award rendered by the arbitrators will be consistent with this Agreement and final,
and judgment may be entered upon it in any court having jurisdiction thereof, parties
have the right to appeal the arbitration award in accordance with AAA rules.

6.

The arbitrators will have the authority to allocate the costs of the arbitration process
among the parties, but will only have the authority to allocate attorneys' fees if a specific
Law or Regulation or this Agreement expressly permits them to do so.

7.

The parties agree that failure or refusal of a party to pay its required share of the
deposits for arbitrator compensation or administrative charges will constitute a waiver

by that party of the right to present evidence or cross-examine witness. In such event,
the other party will be required to present evidence and legal argument as the
arbitrator(s) may require for the making of an award. Such waiver will not allow for a
default judgment against the non-paying party in the absence of evidence presented as
provided for above.
8.

Except as may be required by Laws or Regulations, neither party nor an arbitrator may
disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior
written consent of both parties, with the exception of any disclosure required by Laws
and Regulations or the Agreement. To the extent any disclosure is allowed pursuant to
the exception, the disclosure must be strictly and narrowly limited to maintain
confidentiality to the extent possible.

9.
