Cost of Collection If default is made in the payment of this Note, Borrower shall pay the Holder hereof reasonable costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys' fees.
Cost of Construction 1. During the Schematic Design, Design Development, and Construction Document Phases, the ARCHITECT’s estimates of Construction Cost shall be reconciled against the Budget approved by the DISTRICT pursuant to Article IV, Section 2. 2. The PROJECT’s “Construction Cost,” as used in this AGREEMENT, means the total cost to the DISTRICT of all work designed or specified by the ARCHITECT, which includes the total award from the initial construction Contract(s) plus the work covered by approved change orders and/or any alternates approved by the DISTRICT. The Construction Cost shall not include any costs that are not specifically referenced in this Article V, Section 2, as approved costs. Costs excluded from the Construction Cost include, but are not limited to, payments to the ARCHITECT or other DISTRICT consultants, costs of inspections, surveys, tests, and landscaping not included in PROJECT. 3. If the PROJECT is using the multiple-prime delivery method of construction, the Construction Manager’s fees and/or general conditions will only be included in the total Construction Cost used to calculate the ARCHITECT’s fee only if agreed upon in writing by the DISTRICT. Absent any written agreement, the Construction Manager’s fees or general conditions shall not be included in the total Construction Cost used to calculate the ARCHITECT’s fee. 4. When labor or material is furnished by the DISTRICT below its market cost, the Construction Cost shall be based upon current market cost of labor and new material. 5. The Construction Cost shall be the acceptable estimate of Construction Costs to the DISTRICT as submitted by the ARCHITECT until such time as bids have been received, whereupon it shall be the bid amount of the lowest responsible responsive bidder. 6. Any Budget or fixed limit of Construction Cost shall be adjusted if the bidding has not commenced within ninety (90) days after the ARCHITECT submits the Construction Documents to the DISTRICT to reflect changes in the general level of prices in the construction industry between the date of submission of the Construction Documents to the DISTRICT and the date on which bids are sought for the PROJECT. 7. If the lowest bid received exceeds the Budget: a. The DISTRICT may give written approval of an increase of such fixed limit and proceed with the construction of the PROJECT; b. The DISTRICT may authorize rebidding of the PROJECT within a reasonable time; c. If the PROJECT is abandoned, the DISTRICT may terminate this AGREEMENT in accordance with Article VIII, Section 2; d. The DISTRICT may request the ARCHITECT prepare, at no additional cost, deductive change packages that will bring the PROJECT within the Budget; or e. The DISTRICT may request the ARCHITECT cooperate in revising the PROJECT scope and quality as required to reduce the Construction Cost. 8. If the DISTRICT chooses to proceed under Article V, Section 7(e), the ARCHITECT, without additional charge, agrees to redesign the PROJECT until the PROJECT is brought within the Budget set forth in this AGREEMENT. Redesign does not mean phasing or removal of parts of the PROJECT unless agreed to in writing by the DISTRICT. Redesign means the redesign of the PROJECT, with all its component parts, to meet the Budget set forth in this AGREEMENT.
Cost of Tendering 8.1 The Tenderer shall bear all costs associated with the preparation and submission of its Tender, and the Procuring Entity shall not be responsible or liable for those costs, regardless of the conduct or outcome of the Tendering process.
Cost of Bidding 6.1 The bidder shall bear all costs associated with the preparation and submission of his Bid, and the Employer will in no case be responsible and liable for those costs.
Cost of Living There will be a cost-of-living allowance calculated on hours worked as follows: An Increase of one (1) cent per hour worked for each rise of .062 points in the Consumer Price Index or a decrease of one (1) cent per hour worked for each drop of .062 points in the Consumer Price Index. When CPI changes would result in a decrease in the total COLA payable, it is agreed and understood that the total COLA payable will be maintained at the level in effect prior to the decrease in CPI in exchange for future offsets. These offsets will take the form of postponing any new COLA generated until such time that the CPI used for any an adjustment date exceeds the CPI that generated the last positive COLA payment. The cost-of-living allowance will be established in accordance with changes in the official Consumer Price Index published by Statistics Canada (2002=100) and hereinafter referred to as the Consumer Price Index which was 112.1 as of June 2007 (May 2007). In no event will a decrease in the Consumer Price Index reduce the contract rates listed in the attached wage schedule outlined in Article 14. The amount of any cost-of-living allowance in effect at any time shall be included in computing overtime pay, jury duty pay and funeral time pay. Index is to be reviewed each quarter commencing January 2014. Revision in cost-of-living allowance will take effect the first of the pay period commencing after Index publication. The continuance of the cost-of-living allowance shall be contingent upon the availability of the official monthly Statistics Canada Consumer Price Index in its present form and calculated on the same basis as the Index published January 25, 2014, unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties. In the event the form or basis of the Index is changed, the parties agree to request said Statistics Canada to continue to furnish, for the term of this agreement, the Index in its present form and calculated on the same basis as the Index published January 25, 2014. Fold in all existing COLA adjustments into wages up to and including adjustment #12 (October 2017).
