00 - CONFLICT OF INTEREST. The CONSULTANT represents that it presently has no interest and shall acquire no interest, either direct or indirect, which would conflict in any manner with the performance of services required hereunder. The CONSULTANT further agrees that no person having any such interest shall be employed or engaged by the CONSULTANT for said performance. If CONSULTANT, for itself and on behalf of its subconsultants, is about to engage in representing another client, which it in good faith believes could result in a conflict of interest with the work being performed by CONSULTANT or such sub-consultant under this Agreement, then it will promptly bring such potential conflict of interest to the COUNTY'S attention, in writing. The COUNTY will advise the CONSULTANT, in writing, within ten (10) calendar days as to the period of time required by the COUNTY to determine if such a conflict of interest exists. However, if day ten (10) falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or Lee County recognized holiday, the deadline shall fall to the next Monday or non-Lee County recognized holiday. If the COUNTY determines that there is a conflict of interest, CONSULTANT or such sub-consultant shall decline the representation upon written notice by the COUNTY. If the COUNTY determines that there is not such conflict of interest, then the COUNTY shall give its written consent to such representation. If CONSULTANT or sub-consultant accepts such a representation without obtaining the COUNTY'S prior written consent, and if the COUNTY subsequently determines that there is a conflict of interest between such representation and the work being performed by CONSULTANT or such sub-consultant under this Agreement, then the CONSULTANT or such sub-consultant agrees to promptly terminate such representation. CONSULTANT shall require each of such sub-consultants to comply with the provisions of this Section. Should the CONSULTANT fail to advise or notify the COUNTY as provided hereinabove of representation which could, or does, result in a conflict of interest, or should the CONSULTANT fail to discontinue such representation, the COUNTY may consider such failure as justifiable cause to terminate this Agreement.
