Common use of Contracts and Change Orders Clause in Contracts

Contracts and Change Orders. The Owner shall be responsible for entering into all contracts and any supplemental agreements (commonly referred to as “change orders”) required for the construction of the Facilities including, but not limited to those listed in Exhibits A and C hereto, as amended from time to time, and all such contracts and change orders shall be submitted to the Director and subject to the Director’s advance written approval unless they are Completed Facilities. The Director’s prior written approval shall also be required for any contracts for DIF Improvements. Prior approval of change orders by the Director shall only be required for change orders relating to DIF Improvements or such change orders for other Facilities which in any way change the cost or materially alter the quality or character of the subject Facilities. The City expects that such contracts and change orders needing prior approval by the Director will be approved or denied (any such denial to be in writing, stating the reasons for denial and the actions, if any, that can be taken to obtain later approval) within ten (10) business days of receipt by the Director thereof.
