ment, upgrading, demotion or transfer, recruitment or recruitment adver-
tising, layoff or termination, rates of pay or other forms of compensa-
tion, and selection for training, including apprenticeship. Artist and

applicants for employment, notices setting forth the provisions of this
Fair Employment Practices paragraph.
B. Employment of Apprentices:
Attention is directed to the provisions in Sections 1777.5 (Chapter
1411, Statutes of 1968) and 1777.6 of the Labor Code concerning the
employment of apprentices by the Artist or any subcontractor under her
who is awarded a contract over $30,000 or 20 working days.
Section 1777.5, as amended, requires the Artist and contractor
employing tradesmen in any apprenticeable occupation to employ a ratio
of not less than one apprentice for each five journeymen, except under
the following conditions:
A. When unemployment in the area of coverage by the joint
apprenticeship committee has exceeded an average of 15 percent
in the 90 days prior to the request for certificate, or
B. When the number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds
a ratio of one to five, or
C. If there is a showing that the apprenticeable craft or trade
is replacing at least 1/30 of its journeymen annually through
apprenticeship training on a statewide or local basis, or
D. When the Artist provides evidence that she employs registered
apprentices on all of her contracts on an annual average of
not less than one apprentice to eight journeymen.

The Artist is required to make contributions to funds established
for the administration of apprenticeship programs if she employes register
apprentices or journeymen in any apprenticeable trade on such contracts,

tributions. The Artist and any subcontractor under her shall comply
with the requirements of Sections 1777.5 and 1777.6 in the employment
of apprentices.
Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules,
and other requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial
Relations, e~officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco,

branch offices.

Apprenticeship Standards within five days of the award of any contract
covered under the above provisions.

interest in the sculpture or any aspect thereof when said sculpture has
been accepted by City Council upon completion. Artist agrees that com-
mencing on the date of execution of this Agreement that she will not
assign or convey any interest in said sculpture to any third party, it __
being further agreed that Artist has made no such assignment or conveyancE
of interest prior to said date of signing this Agreement. This Agreement
cannot be cancelled without the written consent of the City.
If City wishes to sell sculpture within five years of signing this
Agreement, Artist shall be given first option to purchase sculpture at
a price not to exceed $20,000. City agrees that during this five year
period it will not sell sculpture to a third party for a price exceeding
$20,000.
- 10 -
X. Temporary Suspension of Work. The City Engineer shall have the
authority to suspend the work wholly or in part for such period as may
be necessary to determine whether or not there has been compliance with
any provision or provisions of the contract and all related documents
due to the manner in which the work has been performed. When the City
Engineer orders suspension of the work for non-compliance with the con-
tract term, said suspension shall in no event extend past one week (7
days) unless the City Engineer or his designate shall file upon the
Artist a notice of non-compliance of contract terms.
XI. Time of Completion and Liquidated Damages. It is agreed by
the parties to the contract that, in case all the work called for under
the contract is not completed before or upon the expiration of the time
limit, as set forth in these specifications, damage will be sustained
by the City of Chula Vista, and that it is and will be impracticable
to determine the actual damage which the City will sustain in the event
of and by reason of such delays; and it is therefore agreed that the
Artist will pay to the City of Chula Vista the sum of fifty dollars
($50.00) per day for each and every day's delay beyond the time
prescribed to complete the work; and the Artist agrees to pay such
liquidated damages as are herein provided, and in case the same are not
paid, agrees that the City of Chula Vista may deduct the amount thereof
from any money due, or that may become due, the Artist under the
Agreemento
It is further agreed that, in case the work called for under the
contract is not finished and completed in all parts and requirements
within the time specified, the City Council shall have the right to
- 11 -
extend the time for completion or not, as may seem best to serve the
interest of the City; and if it decides to extend the time limit for
the completion of the contract, it shall further have the right to charge
to the Artist, her heirs, assigns or sureties, and to deduct from the
final payment for the work all or any part, as it may deem proper,
of the actual cost of engineering, inspection, superintendence, and
other overhead expenses which are directly chargeable to the contract,
and which accrue during the period of such extension, except that the
cost of final surveys and preparation of final estimate shall not be
included in such charges.
The Artist shall not be assessed with liquidated damages nor the
cost of engineering and inspection during any delay in the completion
of the work caused by Acts of God or of the Public Enemy, acts of the
City, fire, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes,
fright embargoes, and unusually severe weather or delays of subcontractor:
due to such causes; provided that the Artist shall, within ten (10)
days from the beginning of any such delay, notify the Engineer, in
writing, of the causes of delay, who shall ascertain the facts and the
extent of the delay, and his findings of the facts thereon shall be
final and conclusiveo
XII. Suspension of Contract. If, at any time, in the opinion of the
City Council, the Artist has failed to supply an adequate working force,
or material of proper quality, or has failed in any other respect to
prosecute the work with the diligence and force specified and intended
in and by the terms of the contract, notice thereof in writing will be
served upon her, and should she neglect or refuse to provide means for
a satisfactory compliance with the contract, as directed by the Engineer,
within the time specified in such notice, the City Council in any such
case shall have the power to suspend the operation of the contract.
- 12 -
Upon receiving notice of such suspension, the Contractor shall discontinu
said work, or_ such parts of it, as the City Council may designate. Upon
such suspension, the Artist's control shall terminate, and thereupon
the City Council, or its duly authorized representative may take
possession of all, or any part of the Artist's materials, tools, equip-
ment, and appliances upon the premises, and use the same for the purpose
of completing said Agreement, and hire such force and buy or rent such
additional materials and supplies at the Artist's expense, as may be
necessary for the proper conduct of the work and for the completion
thereof; or may employ other parties to carry the contract to completion,
employ the necessary workers, substitute other machinery or materials,
and purchase the materials contracted for, in such manner as the City
Council may deem proper or the City Council may annul and cancel the
Agreement and re-let the work, or any part thereof. Any excess of cost
arising therefrom over and above the contract price will be charged
against the Artist and her sureties, who will be liable therefore,
in the event of such suspension, all money due the Artist or retained
under the terms of this Agreement shall be forefeited to the City; but
such forfeiture will not release the Artist or her sureties from liabilit
or failure to fulfill the contract. The Artist and her sureties will
be credited with the amount of money so forfeited tov~ard any excess
of cost over and above the contract price, arising from the suspension
of the operations of the Agreement and the completion of the work by
the City, as above provided, and the Artist will be so credited with
any surplus remaining after all just claims for such completion have
been paid.
- 13 -
In the determination of the question whether there has been any
such non-compliance with the Agreement as to warrant the suspension or
annulment thereof, the decision of the City Council shall be binding
on all parties to the Agreement.
On the suspension of the project, as a whole or in part, all docu-
ments prepared under this Agreement by Artist shall be forthwith trans-
mitted to City and they shall be the sole property of City, subject,
however, to the same restrictions on use as set forth herein.
