The proposal covers three services: (1) preliminary phase, (2) working drawing phase and (3) construction phase. The total lump sum fee for services as contained in the proposal is $2130. Fees will be paid in accordance with the following schedule: 30% due upon acceptance of the preliminary plan by City Council 60% due at acceptance of working drawings and specifications 10% due at final acceptance of the project Substantial changes in working drawings or specifications due to the City's prerogative shall be billed separately at $15.00 per hour. Inspection services beyond those specified in the,proposal shall be billed separately at $25.00 per hour.
