Particular attention shall be given to alternatives for materials, equipment and systems, possible economies and identification of options that will maximize the benefits that the Owner will derive from the completion of the Work. When requested by Owner, the Construction Manager: (1) prepare a specific analysis of the cost-effectiveness and performance capabilities of any building system or component under consideration or specified for the Work and provide other relevant information; and (2) make recommendations on field logistics and any other studies that are required to complete the Work successfully. The Construction Manager acknowledges that it will not rely on any value engineering proposals unless approved in writing by the Owner. The Owner is under no obligation to accept any pending or future value engineering proposal submitted by the Construction Manager. The Construction Manager may render opinions, advice and recommendations to the Owner and the Architect as value engineering to help reduce the overall Cost of the Work. By doing so, the Construction Manager has not assumed any of the duties or obligations of the Owner or Architect. The final decision as to the use of any value engineering opinions, advice or recommendations supplied by the Construction Manager is, and remains, the right and responsibility of the Owner and Architect, respectively. Except as may otherwise be expressly provided in the Contract Documents, the Construction Manager makes no guarantees or warranties regarding its value engineering opinions. § 3.1.14.2 At intervals appropriate to the progress of the Project and established by the Owner or Architect, the Construction Manager shall meet with the Owner and the Architect, and the Owner’s and the Architect’s other design consultants to coordinate the Contract Documents, including for the purpose of a construction feasibility and coordination analysis, identifying conflicts, missing information or gaps in the planned scope of Work and determining appropriate corrective action to ensure the full scope of intended Work is performed efficiently and economically. § 3.1.14.3 In performing its Preconstruction Phase services, including participating in design reviews and making value engineering suggestions, the Construction Manager shall not be deemed to have assumed any design responsibility of the Architect or of the Owner’s other design consultants. § 3.1.14.4 Without limitation of the Construction Manager’s other coordination responsibilities, the Construction Manager shall coordinate the Construction Manager’s services and work relating to the procurement and installation of furniture, fixtures and equipment, including IT equipment, with the Owner’s FF&E and IT planning departments, and shall coordinate relevant portions of the Construction Manager’s services and work with the City of Clearwater Police Department, Building and Maintenance, Utilities, and Public Works. § 3.2 Guaranteed Maximum Price Proposal § 3.2.1 At a time to be mutually agreed upon by the Owner and the Construction Manager, the Construction Manager shall prepare a Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal for the Owner’s and Architect’s review, and the Owner’s acceptance. The "Guaranteed Maximum Price" or "GMP" in the proposal shall be the sum of the Construction Manager’s estimate of the Cost of the Work, the Construction Manager’s contingency described in Section 3.2.4, and the Construction Manager’s Fee described in Section 6.1.2. The Construction Manager shall deliver to the Owner’s Project Manager complete copies of all Subcontractor and supplier bids obtained in accordance with Article 9 for the Owner’s review in conjunction with the Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal. § 3.2.1.1 The Owner may elect to issue a written authorization to proceed with certain segments of Work (each a "Project Segment") prior to full agreement on the final Guaranteed Maximum Price for the entire Work, in which event each such Project Segment shall be authorized by the Owner pursuant to a separate GMP Amendment (as defined herein). If the Owner so elects in writing, then the Construction Manager shall prepare a separate Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal specific to each Project Segment as requested by the Owner for the Owner’s and the Architect’s review and the Owner’s acceptance. Upon the Owner’s approval of the Construction Manager’s Guaranteed Maximum Price Proposal for a Project Segment, a separate GMP Amendment setting forth key terms of the Agreement applicable to the specific Project Segment shall be prepared. Subsequent GMP Amendments shall incorporate the amounts of the prior GMP Amendments until the final GMP Amendment is executed. The "Contract Documents" applicable to each Project Segment shall be those described in Section 2.1 and Article 15 of this Agreement, including the "GMP Amendment" specific to the Project Segment. Terms and provisions of the Contract Documents shall be deemed to refer and shall apply separately to a separate Project Segment if and to the extent (i) the terms are specified in a GMP Amendment as applying to a particular Project Segment, (ii) the provisions depend for their meaning or application on terms specified in a particular GMP Amendment, or (iii) the provisions, based on their language, are intended by the Parties to apply to a Project Segment separately. For the avoidance of doubt, it is not the Parties’ intent that the Project be divided into separate sub-Projects for each Project Segment with each such sub-Project having its own Guaranteed Maximum Price. Rather, it is the Parties’ DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Init. / AIA Document A133 – 2019.

Such further development does not include changes in scope, or material changes in systems, kinds and quality of materials, finishes, or equipment, all of which, if required, shall be incorporated by Change Order or Construction Change Directive. § 3.2.3 The Construction Manager shall include with the Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal a written statement of its basis, which shall include the following unless otherwise agreed by the Owner in writing: .1 A list of the Drawings and Specifications, including all Addenda thereto, and the Conditions of the Contract; .2 A list of the clarifications and assumptions made by the Construction Manager in the preparation of the Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal, including assumptions under Section 3.2.2; .3 A list of allowances and a statement of their basis; .4 A schedule of alternates and their prices, including the dates by which the alternates must be selected for the specified prices to remain available; .5 schedule of unit prices; .6 The initial construction schedule referenced in Section 3.3.2.2 below; .7 A statement of the proposed Guaranteed Maximum Price, to be prepared using each component of the MasterFormat (CSI) list approved by the Owner, including a statement of the estimated Cost of the Work organized by trade categories or systems, including allowances; the Construction Manager’s contingency set forth in Section 3.2.4; the Construction Manager’s Fee; and any other items that are included in the Guaranteed Maximum Price, which shall be based on (a) competitive bids obtained in accordance with Article 9, and which shall be used to prepare a schedule of values to be attached as an exhibit to the GMP Amendment and made part of the Contract Documents if agreed by the Owner, as further provided in Section 3.2.10; .8 A schedule of General Conditions Costs (as defined and described in Section 6.1.7); .9 A logistics plan that, among other things, shows the proposed locations for the parking of the Contractor’s and its Subcontractors’ and suppliers’ and their respective personnel’s vehicles and the storage and staging of materials and equipment to be incorporated into, or used in connection with, the Work; .10 The anticipated date of Substantial Completion upon which the proposed Guaranteed Maximum Price is based and the anticipated dated of Final Completion (as defined in Section 3.3.1.3); and .11 An updated list of Key Personnel for the Construction Phase of the Project. § 3.2.4 Contingency shall be included only as a single, separate line shown in both the statement of the proposed Guaranteed Maximum Price provided pursuant to preceding Section 3.2.3, and in the schedule of values provided in accordance with Sections 3.2.10 and 11.1.5, shall not exceed the amount agreed upon by the Owner and the Construction Manager set forth in the GMP Amendment. Such contingency shall be for the Construction Manager’s use to cover unforeseen costs considered reimbursable as the Cost of the Work, but that are not the basis of a Change Order, that result from: (a) errors by the Construction Manager in estimating time or money, (b) items omitted by the Construction Manager in the formulation of the Guaranteed Maximum Price, (c) costs to the extent the sum of the subcontract costs exceed the sum of the subcontract costs in the Guaranteed Maximum Price, (d) any matters with respect to which the costs thereof may, pursuant to the express provisions of the Contract Documents, be paid for out of the contingency; and (e) other events or circumstances not foreseen by the Construction Manager that are not otherwise accounted for in the GMP, if approved by the Owner’s Designated Representative in writing. Any use of the contingency shall require the prior written approval of the Owner’s Designated Representative, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, contingency shall not be used for: (i) any losses or expenses for which the Construction Manager would have been indemnified or compensated by bonds or insurance required to be maintained by the Construction Manager or its Subcontractors, but for the failure of the Construction Manager to procure and maintain bonds or insurance in accordance with the requirements of the Contract, or the failure of the Construction Manager to comply with the requirements of any of Construction Manager’s or its Subcontractors’ sureties or insurance carriers providing coverage required by the Contract for the Project; (ii) costs which arise out of the Construction Manager’s intentional misconduct; (iii) costs which arise out of disputes with employees of the Construction Manager or any Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor working on the Project or with any union representing such employees; (iv) costs not DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Init. / AIA Document A133 – 2019.

In the event that the Owner or Architect discover any inconsistencies or inaccuracies in the information presented, they shall promptly notify the Construction Manager, who shall make appropriate adjustments to the Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal, its basis, or both; provided, however, that nothing herein imposes any duty on the Owner to identify any such inconsistencies or inaccuracies or any responsibility for any failure to do so. § 3.2.6 The Construction Manager’s Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal shall constitute a "firm offer" by the Construction Manager and available for acceptance by the Owner for the period specified in the proposal but in any event not less than thirty (30) days after receipt by the Owner. If the Owner notifies the Construction Manager that the Owner has accepted the Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal in writing before the date specified in the Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal, the Owner and Construction Manager shall execute a GMP Amendment the Owner and Construction Manager shall execute the GMP Amendment amending this Agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, a copy of which the Owner shall provide to the Architect. The Guaranteed Maximum Price Amendment shall set forth the agreed upon Guaranteed Maximum Price with the information and assumptions upon which it is based. However, for the avoidance of doubt, the Owner may, at its sole discretion and based upon its sole judgment, (a) indicate its acceptance of the Construction Manager’s Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal; (b) reject the Construction Manager’s Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal; (c) terminate the Project; or (d) obtain bids from other contractors and proceed to construct the Project using a party or parties other than the Construction Manager. § 3.2.7 The Construction Manager shall not incur any cost to be reimbursed as part of the Cost of the Work prior to the execution of the GMP Amendment and commencement of the Construction Phase, unless the Owner provides prior written authorization for such costs. § 3.2.8 The Owner shall authorize preparation of revisions to the Contract Documents that incorporate the agreed-upon assumptions and clarifications contained in the GMP Amendment. The Owner shall direct the Architect to promptly furnish such revised Contract Documents to the Construction Manager as they are revised. The Construction Manager shall notify the Owner and Architect of any inconsistencies between the agreed-upon assumptions and clarifications contained in the GMP Amendment and the revised Contract Documents. § 3.2.9 The Construction Manager shall include in the Guaranteed Maximum Price all sales, consumer, use and similar taxes for the Work provided by the Construction Manager that are legally enacted, whether or not yet effective, at the time the GMP Amendment is executed. § 3.2.10 The Construction Manager shall prepare a schedule of values consistent with its statement of the proposed Guaranteed Maximum Price pursuant to Section 3.2.3.7 for the Owner’s and Architect’s approval. It is the Owner’s intent that the proposed Guaranteed Maximum Price be based, to the extent reasonably practicable, on hard bids, such that subcontracts and supply agreements will be bought at the bid amounts on which the Guaranteed Maximum Price is based. However, if thereafter there remain subcontracts or supply agreements to be "bought out", as the Construction Manager finalizes agreements with Subcontractors and suppliers, all "buy-out" savings (i.e. difference between amounts shown in the schedule of values attached to the GMP Amendment for an item of Work, services, materials or equipment and the amount for which the Construction Manager obtains a binding commitment from a Subcontractor or supplier to supply or furnish such item) ("Buy-Out Savings") shall be carried as a separate line item in the schedule of values. Once the final Buy-Out Savings amount is determined, a Change Order shall be prepared that transfers such Buy-Out Savings to the Construction Manager’s contingency line item in the schedule of values described in (and to be managed in accordance with) Section 3.2.4. The Construction Manager shall continuously track Buy-Out Savings and provide an interim reconciliation of such Buy-Out Savings in or with the Construction Manager’s monthly Applications for Payment. References hereto to "Schedule of Values" mean the most recent version approved by the Owner.

If the Owner significantly increases or decreases the Owner’s budget for the Cost of the Work, the Owner shall notify the Construction Manager and Architect. The Owner and, if required by the Owner, the Architect, in consultation with the Construction Manager, shall thereafter discuss whether a corresponding change in the Project’s scope and quality is necessary or appropriate. § 4.1.4 Structural and Environmental Tests, Surveys and Reports. During the Preconstruction Phase, the Owner shall furnish the following information or services with reasonable promptness. The Owner shall also furnish any other information under the Owner’s control and relevant to the Construction Manager’s performance of the Work with reasonable promptness after receiving the Construction Manager’s written request for such information.

Before placing orders for material and equipment that are anticipated, in good faith to exceed the pre-tax purchase price of $5,000 (including categories of items for which the ultimate aggregate purchase price is expected to exceed $5,000) the Construction Manager shall inform the Owner in writing of the various sources from which the materials or equipment may be purchased and the purchase price thereof and afford the Owner ten (10) business days after the Owner receives such written information, within which to issue a direct purchase order to the Owner’s vendor of choice for the item or items to be purchased at the Owner’s election (such materials and equipment that the Owner elects, in its sole discretion, to procure directly from vendors referred to herein as "Direct Purchase Materials"). The following provisions shall apply to such Direct Purchase Materials: (a) the Construction Manager shall prepare and provide to the Owner a purchase order in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G containing the name and address of the material supplier, a list of required items, the quantity needed, the price of the materials, and other information called for by Exhibit G or otherwise reasonably required by the Owner; (b) the Owner shall issue a purchase order directly to the material supplier for such materials; (c) the Owner shall issue its exemption certificate; (d) the materials shall be delivered to the Owner at the Project site and title to the materials shall be transferred directly from the material supplier to the Owner; (e) the Construction Manager shall be responsible for all matters relating to the receipt of the materials, including verifying correct quantities, inspection and acceptance of the materials at the time of delivery; (f) the Owner shall be billed directly by the material supplier; (g) the Owner shall pay the material supplier directly; and (h) the Owner shall bear all risk of loss or damage to the materials from the time of purchase and prior to their installation into the Project. Title to the materials purchased directly by the Owner shall vest in the Owner at the time the materials are delivered to the Project site. The Guaranteed Maximum Price shall, by Change Order or Construction Change Directive, be reduced by the cost of such Direct Purchase Materials, including sales tax thereon; provided, however, the cost of such Direct Purchase Materials shall be considered a Cost of the Work for purposes of the calculation of the Construction Manager’s Fee. For the avoidance of doubt, the Construction Manager shall be entitled to Construction Manager’s Fee on the cost of Direct Purchase Materials but not on the tax saved. To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, the Construction Manager shall be responsible for coordinating and receiving delivery of, inspecting, accepting delivery of, handling, safeguarding, and installing Direct Purchase Materials to the same extent as if the Construction Manager itself had procured such Direct Purchase Materials. The Construction Manager shall cooperate with the Owner and shall assist the Owner with any other processes necessary for the Owner to take full advantage of any available tax advantages, discounts or deductions associated with the purchase of materials. § 4.2 Owner’s Designated Representative The Owner shall identify one or more representatives authorized to act on behalf of the Owner with respect to the Project. The Owner’s representative shall render decisions promptly and furnish information expeditiously, so as to avoid unreasonable delay in the services or Work of the Construction Manager. Notwithstanding anything in the Contract Documents to the contrary, for any decision, approval or consent of the Owner to be binding against the Owner it must be in writing and signed by the Owner’s representative and for any Modification that changes the Contract Sum or Contract Time. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.2.1 of A201–2017, the Architect does not have the authority to make a decision, approval or consent that is binding against the Owner. The term "Owner" means the Owner or the Owner’s authorized representative. § 4.2.1 Legal Requirements. The Owner shall furnish or cause to be furnished all legal, insurance and accounting services, including auditing services, that the Owner may determine to be reasonably necessary at any time for the Project to meet the Owner’s needs and interests, other than services required of the Construction Manager by other provisions of the Contract Documents. § 4.3 Architect The Owner shall retain an Architect to provide services, duties and responsibilities as described in the Owner’s agreement with the Architect. The Owner, upon the Construction Manager’s request, shall provide the Construction Manager a copy of the scope of services from the executed agreement between the Owner and the Architect, and any further modifications to the Architect’s scope of services in the agreement.

Three and 85/100 percent (3.85%) of the Cost of the Work (as defined in Article 7 of this Agreement), subject to the exclusions therefrom in calculating the Construction Manager’s Fee as provided for herein, which shall be converted to a lump-sum amount in each GMP Amendment. § 6.1.3 The method of adjustment of the Construction Manager’s Fee for changes in the Work: For changes in the Work, Construction Manager’s Fee shall be three and 85/100 percent (3.85%) of the net change in the Cost of the Work for the changed Work. § 6.1.4 Limitations, if any, on a Subcontractor’s overhead and profit for increases in the cost of its portion of the Work: For Change Order Work or Construction Change Directives as to which unit pricing in accordance with the Agreement is not the agreed upon pricing method, the maximum amounts payable for fees (including overhead, profit, and the like) are as follows: .1 For each Subcontractor, for Work performed by that Subcontractor’s own forces, five percent (5%) of the cost of the Work for the changed Work for overhead plus profit equal to five percent (5%) of the cost of the Work for the changed Work shall be paid to the Subcontractor. .2 For each Subcontractor, for Work performed by that Subcontractor’s Sub-subcontractor, no overhead charges, but a five percent (5%) profit on the amount due the Sub-subcontractor shall be paid the Subcontractor. .3 For each Sub-subcontractor, for Work performed by that Sub-subcontractor’s own forces, five percent (5%) of the cost of the Work for the changed Work plus a profit equal to five percent (5%) of the cost of the Work for the changed Work shall be paid to the Sub-subcontractor. .4 No further tiering of Sub-subcontractors will be allowed mark up for overhead or profit (fees). The combined aggregate mark-up payable to all Subcontractors of any tier collectively shall not exceed to fifteen percent (15%) of the cost of the Work for the changed Work. § 6.1.5 Rental rates for Construction Manager-owned equipment shall not exceed one hundred percent ( 100 %) of the standard rental rate paid at the place of the Project, which rate shall be substantiated by the Construction Manager to the Owner’s reasonable satisfaction. In no event, shall the total rental cost of any Construction Manager-owned item exceed seventy-five percent (75%) of the purchase price of such item when new. § 6.1.6 Liquidated damages, if any: (Insert terms and conditions for liquidated damages, if any.) § 6.1.6.1 The Construction Manager acknowledges and agrees that the Owner will suffer damages if the Construction Manager does not achieve Substantial Completion of the entire Work within the Contract Time. The specific damages for delay in timely achieving Substantial Completion of the Work within the Contract Time are difficult to determine at this time but the Parties agree that the liquidated damages for delayed Substantial Completion specified in this Section 6.1.6.1 represent a reasonable estimate of the damages the Owner will incur for each day of delay beyond the Contract Time and bear a reasonable relationship to the Owner’s risk of loss. Accordingly, as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, the Construction Manager shall pay to the Owner liquidated damages in the daily amount specified in this Section 6.1.6.1 for each day of delay in achieving Substantial Completion of the Work beyond the Contract Time. The daily amount of liquidated damages for each day of delay in achieving Substantial Completion of the entire Work shall be One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) per day for each day of delay in achieving Substantial Completion of the entire Work; provided, however, a thirty-day (30-day) grace period will be allowed such that should the Construction Manager achieve Substantial Completion within the thirty-day (30-day) grace period, no liquidated damages shall be payable pursuant to this Section 6.1.6.1; provided, further, however, if the Construction Manager fails to achieve Substantial Completion within such thirty (30) day grace period, then the Construction Manager shall be liable for the liquidated damages that accrued during such thirty (30) day grace period (in addition to those that accrue thereafter). § 6.1.6.2 Intentionally deleted.

User Notes: (1749168718) 17 § 6.1.6.3 The Owner may deduct liquidated damages prescribed herein from any unpaid amounts then or thereafter due the Construction Manager under the Contract Documents. Any liquidated damages not so deducted shall be payable to the Owner by the Construction Manager upon demand by the Owner plus interest from the date of demand at the legal rate prevailing from time to time at the place where the Project is located. It is further mutually understood and agreed that the Owner’s assessment of liquidated damages for delays is intended to compensate the Owner solely for the Construction Manager’s failure to timely achieve Substantial Completion of the Work and shall not release the Construction Manager from liability from any other breach of the requirements of the Contract Documents. If the Contractor challenges the enforceability of the liquidated damages set forth in the Contract, and the liquidated damages set forth in the Contract are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, then the Owner instead shall be entitled to recover those actual delay damages that it sustained as a result of the Construction Manager’s delay in achieving Substantial Completion. The Owner’s right to liquidated damages hereunder is self-executing and no Claim by the Owner is required as a condition precedent to the Owner’s right to offset liquidated damages from amounts otherwise due the Construction Manager or to otherwise pursue recovery of liquidated damages. However, the Owner shall deliver notice to the Construction Manager at least five (5) days prior to offsetting liquidated damages from amounts otherwise due the Construction Manager. If the Construction Manager disputes any liquidated damages to which the Owner asserts it is entitled, the Construction Manager may make a Claim in accordance with the terms of the A201-2017. § 6.1.7 Other: § 6.1.7.1 The Construction Manager’s "general conditions costs" and "general requirements costs" (collectively, "General Conditions Costs"), which are included in the Cost of the Work, shall be a lump sum, which lump sum amount shall be drawn in equal monthly installments over the duration of the Project. The General Conditions Costs shall be subdivided into General Conditions that are based on a time component ("Timed General Conditions Costs") and General Conditions Costs that are a single flat-rate change ("Flat Rate General Conditions Costs"). A schedule of the items included in the General Conditions Costs is attached hereto as Exhibit F. § 6.1.7.2 For Change Order or Construction Change Directive Work there shall be no increase in the Construction Manager’s General Conditions Costs unless Change Orders and Construction Change Directives have resulted in an extension of the Contract Time. In the event that Construction Manager is entitled to an increase in the General Conditions Costs, the increase shall be calculated using the approved costs or rates for Timed General Conditions Costs set forth in the GMP Amendment, which per diem amount shall be calculated by dividing the Contract Time applicable to such GMP Amendment by the Timed General Conditions Costs for such GMP Amendment (the "Per Diem Timed General Conditions Costs"). § 6.1.7.3 There shall be no reduction in the Construction Manager’s General Conditions Costs for changes to the Work, unless there is a reduction in the Contract Time or decrease in the Work requiring reduced supervision. In the event of a change to the Work resulting in a reduction in the Contract Time, the General Conditions Costs shall be reduced by the Per Diem Timed General Conditions Costs for each day by which the Contract Time is reduced. § 6.2 Guaranteed Maximum Price The Construction Manager guarantees that the Contract Sum shall not exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Price set forth in the GMP Amendment, subject to additions and deductions by Change Order as provided in the Contract Documents. Costs which would cause the Guaranteed Maximum Price to be exceeded shall be paid by the Construction Manager without reimbursement by the Owner. On the other hand, to the extent the final Contract Sum (i.e. the Cost of the Work plus the Construction Manager’s Fee) is less than the Guaranteed Maximum Price for the Project (as it may have been adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Contract Documents), the Construction Manager shall not be entitled to any additional payment on account of such difference. § 6.3 Changes in the Work § 6.3.1 The Owner may, without invalidating the Contract, order changes in the Work within the general scope of the Contract consisting of additions, deletions or other revisions. The Owner shall issue such changes in writing. The Construction Manager may be entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Time as a result of changes in the Work. § 6.3.1.1 The Architect may order minor changes in the Work as provided in Article 7 of AIA Document A201–2017, General Conditions of the Contract for Construction.

Adjustments to subcontracts awarded with the Owner’s prior written consent on the basis of cost plus a fee shall be calculated in accordance with the terms of those subcontracts, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1.4 above. § 6.3.4 In calculating adjustments to the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the terms "cost" and "costs" as used in Article 7 of the A201–2017 shall mean the Cost of the Work as defined in Article 7 of this Agreement and the term "fee" shall mean the Construction Manager’s Fee as defined in Section 6.1.2 of this Agreement. § 6.3.5 Intentionally deleted. § 6.3.6 Notwithstanding anything in the Contract Documents to the contrary, no Modification to the Contract, including a change to the GMP and/or Contract Time, shall be valid and binding as against the Owner unless signed by the Owner’s representative and City Manager or City Counsel, respectively, and should the Construction Manager perform work for which it believes an increase in the Guaranteed Maximum Price is required without such a signed Modification, it shall be deemed to have waived any entitlement to an extension of the Contract Time and an increase in the Guaranteed Maximum Price as a result thereof. ARTICLE 7 COST OF THE WORK FOR CONSTRUCTION PHASE § 7.1 Costs to Be Reimbursed § 7.1.1 The term Cost of the Work shall mean costs necessarily incurred by the Construction Manager in the proper performance of the Work, less all discounts and rebates that shall be taken by the Construction Manager, subject to Article 8 of this Agreement. The Cost of the Work shall include only the items set forth in Sections 7.1 through 7.7.

Certain of the costs itemized in Sections 7.1 through 7.7 are or may be included in General Conditions Costs, whether or not specifically noted as such, and in no event shall the Construction Manager charge for or recover costs included in General Conditions Costs separately in an Application for Payment in addition to General Conditions Costs (i.e. there shall be no duplication of such costs). § 7.1.2 Where, pursuant to the Contract Documents, any cost is subject to the Owner’s prior approval, the Construction Manager shall obtain such approval in writing prior to incurring the cost. § 7.1.3 Costs shall be at rates not higher than the standard rates paid at the place of the Project, except with prior approval of the Owner. § 7.1.4 All per diem and travel expenses to be reimbursed as part of the Cost of the Work, if any, shall be subject to the legal requirements and limitations imposed upon the Owner by Florida Statutes § 112.061, as amended, and the Owner’s internal policies with respect to travel reimbursement in place from time to time. All such expenses and request for reimbursement therefor are subject to, to the extent applicable, Florida Statutes § 112.061, as amended.

Those portions of the Work that the Construction Manager does not self-perform with the Construction Manager’s own personnel shall be performed under written subcontracts or other appropriate written agreements with the Construction Manager. The Owner may designate specific persons from whom, or entities from which, the Construction Manager shall obtain bids, provided that no recommendation or approval of a bidder by the Owner shall be deemed to make the Owner responsible for such bidder’s performance. The Construction Manager may obtain bids from other qualified bidders in addition to any bidders recommended by the Owner. The Construction Manager shall prepare bids for Work it intends to self-perform and shall obtain bids from Subcontractors, and from suppliers of materials or equipment fabricated especially for the Work, who are qualified to perform that portion of the Work in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents. The Construction Manager shall deliver to the Architect and Owner all such bids (without redaction), a bid recap table, and copies of the bid solicitation materials that the Construction Manager provided to the bidders, with an indication as to which bids the Construction Manager recommends accepting. The Owner shall then determine, with the advice of the Construction Manager and the Architect, which bids will be accepted. Any advice of the Architect, or determination by the Owner, shall not relieve the Construction Manager of its responsibility to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. The Construction Manager shall not be required to contract with anyone to whom the Construction Manager has reasonable objection. The Construction Manager shall deliver copies of all signed subcontracts and purchase orders with Subcontractors and suppliers to the Owner promptly after the full execution thereof. § 9.1.1 If the Guaranteed Maximum Price has been established, and a specific subcontractor or supplier (1) is recommended to the Owner by the Construction Manager; (2) is qualified to perform that portion of the Work; and (3) has submitted a bid that conforms to the requirements of the Contract Documents without reservations or exceptions, but the Owner requires that another bid be accepted, then the Construction Manager may require that a Change Order be issued to adjust the Guaranteed Maximum Price by the difference between the bid of the person or entity recommended to the Owner by the Construction Manager and the amount of the subcontract or other agreement actually signed with the person or entity designated by the Owner. § 9.2 Subcontracts or other agreements shall conform to the applicable payment provisions of this Agreement, and shall not be awarded on the basis of cost plus a fee without the Owner’s prior written approval. If a subcontract is awarded on the basis of cost plus a fee, the Construction Manager shall provide in the subcontract for the Owner to receive the same audit rights with regard to the Subcontractor as the Owner receives with regard to the Construction Manager in Article 10. ARTICLE 10 ACCOUNTING RECORDS The Construction Manager shall keep full and detailed records and accounts related to the Cost of the Work, and exercise such controls, as may be necessary for proper financial management under this Contract and to substantiate all costs incurred. The accounting and control systems shall be satisfactory to the Owner. The Owner and the Owner’s auditors shall, during regular business hours and upon reasonable notice, be afforded access to, and shall be permitted to audit and copy, the Construction Manager’s records and accounts, including complete documentation supporting accounting entries, books, job cost reports, correspondence, instructions, drawings, receipts, subcontracts, Subcontractor’s proposals, Subcontractor’s invoices, purchase orders, vouchers, memoranda, and other data relating to this Contract. The Construction Manager shall preserve these records for a period of five (5) years after final payment, or for such longer period as may be required by Applicable Laws. Furthermore, Construction Manager shall cooperate with the reasonable requests from the Owner’s auditors for documentation and other information related to the Project. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the calculations of the rates or amounts, as applicable, agreed to herein for the Construction Manager’s General Conditions Costs shall not be subject to audit, except to confirm that the required services or items were provided and that such agreed rates were correctly applied and charged. In the event any such audit discloses that the Owner has overpaid the Construction Manager, the Construction Manager shall refund the amount of such overpayment to the Owner. Additionally, in the event any audit reveals one or more overcharges exceeding Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000) in the aggregate, the Construction Manager shall promptly reimburse the Owner for the reasonable cost of such audit capped at Forty-Five Thousand Dollars ($45,000). In no event shall any audit increase the amount of the Guaranteed Maximum Price. ARTICLE 11 PAYMENTS FOR CONSTRUCTION PHASE SERVICES § 11.1 Progress Payments § 11.1.1 Based upon properly completed Applications for Payment, together with all required supporting documentation and information required by the Contract Documents, submitted to the Owner and the Architect by the Construction Manager, and Certificates for Payment issued by the Architect, the Owner shall make progress payments on account of the Contract Sum, to the Construction Manager, as provided below and elsewhere in the Contract Documents.

The Schedule of Values shall allocate the entire Guaranteed Maximum Price among the various portions of the Work, except that the Construction Manager’s Fee, contingency, and allowances shall be shown as single separate line items (and, for the avoidance of doubt, all unused allowance amounts shall accrue to the benefit of the Owner). Each item shall show its total scheduled value, value of previous Applications, value of the Application, percentage completed, value completed and value remaining to be completed. Values for materials and equipment stored offsite shall be shown in a separate column. § 11.1.5.1 The Schedule of Values shall be prepared in such form and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as the Owner or the Architect may require. The Schedule of Values last approved by the Owner shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Construction Manager’s Applications for Payment. If the Schedule of Values is unbalanced, the Construction Manager will, after review and agreement with the Owner, adjust the Schedule of Values accordingly. § 11.1.5.2 The allocation of the Guaranteed Maximum Price under this Section 11.1.5 shall not constitute a separate guaranteed maximum price for the Cost of the Work of each individual line item in the schedule of values. § 11.1.5.3 The Construction Manager shall submit to the Owner monthly requests, if any, for use of the contingency, specifying the amount of contingency the Construction Manager requests to use and the justification for such use. No sums may be charged to the contingency except with prior written approval of the Owner, which will not be unreasonably withheld.

The Construction Manager shall reconcile the contingency in the schedule of values monthly. § 11.1.6 Applications for Payment shall show the percentage of completion of each portion of the Work as of the end of the period covered by the Application for Payment. The percentage of completion shall be the lesser of (1) the percentage of that portion of the Work which has actually been completed, or (2) the percentage obtained by dividing (a) the expense that has actually been incurred by the Construction Manager on account of that portion of the Work and for which the Construction Manager has made payment or intends to make payment prior to the next Application for Payment, by (b) the share of the Guaranteed Maximum Price allocated to that portion of the Work in the Schedule of Values. § 11.1.7 In accordance with AIA Document A201–2017 and subject to other provisions of the Contract Documents, the amount of each progress payment shall be computed as follows: § 11.1.7.1 The amount of each progress payment shall first include: .1 That portion of the Guaranteed Maximum Price properly allocable to completed Work as determined by multiplying the percentage of completion of each portion of the Work by the share of the Guaranteed Maximum Price allocated to that portion of the Work in the Schedule of Values; .2 That portion of the Guaranteed Maximum Price properly allocable to materials and equipment delivered and suitably stored at the site for subsequent incorporation in the completed construction or, if approved in writing in advance by the Owner, suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in writing; .3 That portion of Construction Change Directives reasonably justified, as provided in Section 7.3.9 of A201–2017; and DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Init. / AIA Document A133 – 2019.

User Notes: (1281444406) 10 ARTICLE 1 GENERAL PROVISIONS § 1.1 Basic Definitions § 1.1.1 The Contract Documents The Contract Documents are enumerated in the Agreement between the Owner and Contractor (hereinafter the "Agreement") and consist of the Agreement, these General Conditions of the Contract, any Supplementary and other Conditions identified in the Agreement, Drawings, Specifications, Addenda issued prior to execution of the Contract, if any, other documents listed in the Agreement, and Modifications issued after execution of the Contract. A "Modification" is (1) a written amendment to the Contract signed by both Parties, (2) a Change Order, (3) a Construction Change Directive, or (4) a written order for a minor change in the Work issued by the Architect. Unless specifically enumerated in the Agreement, the Contract Documents do not include the advertisement or invitation to bid, Instructions to Bidders, sample forms, other information furnished by the Owner in anticipation of receiving bids or proposals, the Contractor’s bid or proposal, or portions of Addenda relating to bidding or proposal requirements. § 1.1.2 The Contract The Contract Documents form the "Contract" or "Contract for Construction". The Contract represents the entire and integrated agreement between the Parties and supersedes prior negotiations, representations, or agreements, either written or oral. The Contract may be amended or modified only by a Modification. The Contract Documents shall not be construed to create a contractual relationship of any kind (1) between the Contractor and the Architect or the Architect’s consultants, (2) between the Owner and a Subcontractor or a Sub-subcontractor, except as set forth in Sections 5.3 and 5.4, (3) between the Owner and the Architect or the Architect’s consultants, or (4) between any persons or entities other than the Owner and the Contractor. The Architect shall, however, be entitled to performance and enforcement of obligations under the Contract intended to facilitate performance of the Architect’s duties. The Contract shall not be construed as conferring on any third parties any rights or claims against the Owner. § 1.1.3 The Work The term "Work" means the construction and services required of the Contractor by the Contract Documents (whether expressly or by reasonable inference), whether completed or partially completed, and includes all other labor, materials, supplies, equipment, and services provided or to be provided by the Contractor to fulfill the Contractor’s obligations. The Work may constitute the whole or a part of the Project. § 1.1.4 The Project The "Project" is the total construction of which the Work performed under the Contract Documents may be the whole or a part and which may include construction by the Owner and by Separate Contractors. § 1.1.5 The Drawings The "Drawings" are the graphic and pictorial portions of the Contract Documents showing the design, location and dimensions of the Work, generally including plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules, and diagrams. § 1.1.6 The Specifications The "Specifications" are that portion of the Contract Documents consisting of the written requirements for materials, equipment, systems, standards and workmanship for the Work, and performance of related services. § 1.1.7 Instruments of Service "Instruments of Service" are representations, in any medium of expression now known or later developed, of the tangible and intangible creative work performed by the Architect and the Architect’s consultants under their respective professional services agreements. Instruments of Service may include studies, surveys, models, sketches, drawings, specifications, and other similar materials. § 1.1.8 Initial Decision Maker The "Initial Decision Maker" is the person identified in the Agreement to render initial decisions on Claims in accordance with Section 15.2. § 1.1.9 Product The term "product" includes materials, systems and equipment. § 1.1.10 Furnish The term "furnish" means to supply and deliver to the Project site, ready for unloading, unpacking, assembly, erection, placement or similar requirements.

User Notes: (1281444406) 11 § 1.1.11 Install The term "install" means to unload, unpack, assemble, erect, place, finish, protect, adjust, and clean, or similar requirements. § 1.1.12 Provide The term "provide" means to furnish and install. § 1.1.13 Knowledge The terms "knowledge", "recognize" and "discover", their respective derivatives, and similar terms in the Contract Documents, as used in reference to the Contractor, shall be interpreted to mean that which the Contractor knows, recognizes or discovers in exercising the care, skill and diligence required by the Contract Documents. Analogously, the expression "reasonably inferable" and similar terms in the Contract Documents shall be interpreted to mean reasonably inferable by a contractor familiar with the Project and exercising the care, skill and diligence required of the Contractor by the Contract Documents. § 1.1.14 Party and Parties The term "Party" means each of the Owner and the Contractor, individually. The term "Parties" means the Owner and the Contractor, together. § 1.2 Correlation and Intent of the Contract Documents (Paragraphs deleted) § 1.2.1 The intent of the Contract Documents is to include all items necessary for the proper execution and completion of the Work by the Contractor. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is required by one shall be as binding as if required by all; performance by the Contractor shall be required only to the extent consistent with the Contract Documents and reasonably inferable from them as being necessary to produce the indicated results. In the event of inconsistencies within or between parts of the Contract Documents, or between the Contract Documents and Applicable Laws (as defined in Section 3.1.13 of the Agreement) or applicable industry standards, the Contractor shall (i) provide the better quality or greater quantity of Work or (ii) comply with the more stringent requirement; either or both in accordance with the Architect’s interpretation. The terms and conditions of this Section 1.2.1, however, shall not relieve the Contractor of any of the obligations set forth in Sections 3.2, 3.4.2, or 3.7. § 1.2.1.1 The invalidity of any provision of the Contract Documents shall not invalidate the Contract or its remaining provisions. If it is determined that any provision of the Contract Documents, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, violates any law, or is otherwise invalid or unenforceable, then that provision shall be revised to the extent necessary to make that provision legal and enforceable. In such case the Contract Documents shall be construed, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to give effect to the Parties’ intentions and purposes in executing the Contract. § 1.2.2 Organization of the Specifications into divisions, sections and articles, and arrangement of Drawings shall not control the Contractor in dividing the Work among Subcontractors or in establishing the extent of Work to be performed by any trade. § 1.2.3 Unless otherwise stated in the Contract Documents, words that have well-known technical or construction industry meanings are used in the Contract Documents in accordance with such recognized meanings. § 1.2.3.1 Whenever a product is specified in accordance with a Federal Specification, an ASTM Standard, an American National Standards Institute Specification, or other Association Standard, the Contractor shall present an affidavit from the manufacturer when requested by the Owner or the Architect certifying that the product complies with the particular standard or specification. When requested by the Owner or the Architect or otherwise required by the Contract Documents, support test data shall be submitted to substantiate compliance. If test data was not specified as a requirement in the Contract Documents, the cost associated with the testing, if any, shall be the basis of a Modification as provided in Article 7. § 1.3 Capitalization Terms capitalized in these General Conditions include those that are (1) specifically defined, (2) the titles of numbered articles, or (3) the titles of other documents published by the American Institute of Architects.

User Notes: (1281444406) 12 § 1.4 Interpretation In the interest of brevity the Contract Documents frequently omit modifying words such as "all" and "any" and articles such as "the" and "an," but the fact that a modifier or an article is absent from one statement and appears in another is not intended to affect the interpretation of either statement. § 1.5 Ownership and Use of Drawings, Specifications, and Other Instruments of Service (Paragraphs deleted) § 1.5.1 Except to the extent transferred to the Owner in accordance with the Owner’s agreement(s) with the Architect, the Architect and the Architect’s consultants shall be deemed the authors and owners of their respective Instruments of Service, including the Drawings and Specifications, and retain all common law, statutory, and other reserved rights in their Instruments of Service, including copyrights. The Contractor, Subcontractors, Sub-subcontractors, and suppliers shall not own or claim a copyright in the Instruments of Service. Submittal or distribution to meet official regulatory requirements or for other purposes in connection with the Project is not to be construed as publication in derogation of the Owner’s, Architect’s or Architect’s consultants’ reserved rights. § 1.5.2 The Contractor, Subcontractors, Sub-subcontractors, and suppliers are authorized to use and reproduce the Instruments of Service provided to them, subject to any protocols established pursuant to Sections 1.7 and 1.8, solely and exclusively for execution of the Work. All copies made under this authorization shall bear the copyright notice, if any, shown on the Instruments of Service. The Contractor, Subcontractors, Sub-subcontractors, and suppliers may not use the Instruments of Service on other projects or for additions to the Project outside the scope of the Work without the specific written consent of the Owner, Architect, and the Architect’s consultants. All copies of the Instruments of Service shall be returned to the Owner upon completion of the Work, provided, however, that the Contractor shall be entitled to retain one (1) set of Record Documents and Record Drawings. § 1.5.3 Upon execution of the Agreement, the Contractor grants to the Owner a fully-paid up, royalty free, perpetual and nonexclusive license to use the Contractor’s and Contractor’s Subcontractors’ and consultants’ representations, in any medium of expression now known or later developed, of the tangible and intangible creative work created, prepared or issued by the Contractor or its Subcontractors or consultants, for purposes of constructing, using, maintaining, altering and adding to the Project, including Shop Drawings, design drawings and specifications and electronic data for design-build systems delegated to the Contractor in the Contract Documents. The Contractor shall obtain similar nonexclusive licenses from the Contractor’s Subcontractors and consultants consistent with this Section. The license granted under this Section permits the Owner to authorize contractors, consultants and material and equipment suppliers, to reproduce applicable portions of such work product for use in performing services or construction for the Project. Project estimates by the Contractor are considered proprietary and confidential. In the event the Owner receives a written request for such Project estimates, the City shall provide the Contractor with written notice of such request such that the Contractor shall have an opportunity to redact any confidential and/or proprietary information prior to its disclosure. § 1.6 Notice § 1.6.1 Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.6.2, where the Contract Documents require one Party to notify or give notice to the other Party or a third party, such notice shall be provided in writing to the designated representative of the party to whom the notice is addressed and shall be deemed to have been duly served if delivered in person, by mail, by courier, or by electronic transmission. § 1.6.2 Notice of Claims as provided in Section 15.1.3, default, or termination shall be provided in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly served only if delivered to the designated representative of the Party to whom the notice is addressed by certified or registered mail, or by courier providing proof of delivery. Further, in addition to sending such notice to the person designated as the Owner’s representative in the Agreement (or such other person as the Owner may later designate in writing), a copy of such notice by the Contractor to be valid must also be delivered to the Architect and to the City Attorney. § 1.7 Digital Data Use and Transmission The Parties shall agree upon protocols governing the transmission and use of Instruments of Service or any other information or documentation in digital form.

User Notes: (1281444406) 13 § 1.8 Intentionally Deleted ARTICLE 2 OWNER § 2.1 General (Paragraphs deleted) § 2.1.1 The "Owner" is the person or entity identified as such in the Agreement and is referred to throughout the Contract Documents as if singular in number. The Owner shall designate in writing one or more representatives who shall have express authority to bind the Owner with respect to all matters requiring the Owner’s approval or authorization. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.2.1, the Architect does not have such authority.

The Contractor shall give specific notice to the Owner and its consultants of any material change in the logic of the schedule or any part thereof, or the removal of any critical restraints, or the material deduction of any duration. If any schedule update shows that the progress of the Work is delayed in comparison to the construction schedule, the Contractor shall, if required by the Owner, provide a proposed "recovery schedule" showing how the Contractor proposes to correct the delay, including overtime and additional labor. No schedule updates shall modify any milestone dates identified as a "Milestone Date" ("Milestone Dates")in the initial construction schedule or subsequently agreed to by the Parties in any update thereto, the Contract Time, the Substantial Completion Date, or the Final Completion Date, unless the Parties execute a Change Order which modifies the Contract Time. § 3.10.2 The Contractor, promptly after execution of the GMP Amendment and thereafter as necessary to maintain a current submittal schedule, shall submit a submittal schedule for the Architect’s approval.

Such Extraordinary Measures shall continue until the progress of the Work complies with the stage of completion required by the Contract Documents. The Owner’s right to require Extraordinary Measures is solely for the purpose of ensuring the Contractor’s compliance with the construction schedule. Unless the delay giving rise to the need for Extraordinary Measures is a delay for which the Contractor is entitled to an increase in the Guaranteed Maximum Price pursuant to Section 8.3.3 below, the Contractor shall not be entitled to an adjustment of the Guaranteed Maximum Price in connection with Extraordinary Measures required by the Owner under or pursuant to this Section 3.10.4.

Owner reserves the right to charge back to the Contractor for all third submittals, provided the Contractor is at fault for the initial submittals. The number of first-time submittals shall be equal to the number of submittals agreed to by the Owner and Contractor. All costs to Owner involved with subsequent submittal of Shop Drawings, Samples or other items requiring approval will be charged back to the Contractor at the rate of 1.0 times direct technical labor cost by deducting such costs from payments due the Contractor for Work completed. In the event that the Contractor requests a substitution for a previously approved item, all of Owner’s costs in the reviewing and approval of the substitution will be back charged to the Contractor, unless the need for such substitution is beyond the control of the Contractor. § 3.12.12 The Architect’s review or approval of Shop Drawings and samples shall not be construed as authorizing additional work or increased cost to the Owner, as all changes to the Work, Contract Sum and Contract Time may only be made by a duly-executed Modification. § 3.12.13 Substitutions of material or equipment on an "or equal" basis shall not be proposed or requested in Shop Drawings or sample submittals unless (a) approval is requested within thirty (30) days after award of any subcontract, and (b) the Contractor provides the Owner and Architect with supporting data and documentation compliant with Sections 3.4.2 and 7.1.4 herein.

Such obligation shall not be construed to negate, abridge, or reduce other rights or obligations of indemnity that would otherwise exist as to an Indemnitee. The Owner and the Contractor acknowledge and agree that Section 725.06, Florida Statutes, does not require a monetary limitation on the extent of the indemnification provisions of this Section 3.18. If, notwithstanding this agreement, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that a monetary limitation on the extent of indemnification required under this Section 3.18 is required to make the provisions of this Section 3.18 enforceable, the specifications for the Project shall be deemed to include a monetary limitation on the extent of the indemnification required by this Section 3.18 equal to the greater of, on a per occurrence basis: (a) the Guaranteed Maximum Price, or (b) the amount of all deductibles and self-insured retentions applicable to the Contractor’s insurance policy or policies applicable to such Indemnity Claim(s) plus the amount of insurance proceeds paid or payable under the Contractor’s insurance policy or policies required to be maintained by the Contract applicable to such Indemnity Claims, and the Contractor and the Owner expressly agree that this monetary limit bears a reasonable commercial relationship to the Contract. The Contractor’s indemnification obligations under the Contract, including those in this Section, shall be deemed to fully comply with Sections 725.06 and 725.08, Florida Statutes, to the extent applicable, including any amendments thereto, in all respects. If any word, clause or provision of any of the indemnification provisions of the Contract is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be in compliance with Sections 725.06 and 725.08, Florida Statutes, to the extent applicable, including any amendments thereto, it shall be deemed stricken and the remaining words, clauses, and provisions shall remain in full force and effect. To the greatest extent permitted by Applicable Laws, the Contractor waives for itself and its insurers any and all claims that the indemnification obligations under the Contract violate Applicable Laws. § 3.18.2 In claims against any person or entity indemnified under this Section 3.18 by an employee of the Contractor, a Subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by them, or anyone for whose acts they may be liable, the indemnification obligation under Section 3.18.1 shall not be limited by a limitation on amount or type of damages, compensation, or benefits payable by or for the Contractor or a Subcontractor under workers’ compensation acts, disability benefit acts, or other employee benefit acts. § 3.18.3 The Contractor’s indemnity obligations shall also specifically include all fines, penalties, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs), and punitive damages (if any) arising out of, or in connection with, any (a) violation of or failure by the Contractor or its Subcontractors to comply with any law, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, code or requirement of a public authority that bears upon the performance of the Work by the Contractor, a Subcontractor, or any person or entity for whom any of them is responsible, (b) means, methods, techniques, procedures or sequences of execution or performance of the Work, and (c) failure to secure and pay for permits, fees, approvals, licenses, and inspections as required of the Contractor under the Contract, or any violation of any permit or other approval of a public authority applicable to the Work, by the Contractor, a Subcontractor, or any person for whom any of them is responsible. § 3.18.4 The duty of the Contractor to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitees includes the separate and independent duty to defend the Indemnitees, which duty arises immediately upon receipt by the Contractor of the tender of any Indemnity Claim from an Indemnitee which under the written content of the claimant’s description of its claim reasonably appears to be within the Contractor’s indemnification obligation. By proceeding to defend an Indemnity Claim, the Contractor shall not be deemed to have admitted to an obligation to provide indemnification and defense and Contractor may provide a defense under a written reservation of rights. Should the Contractor breach its defense and indemnity obligations, the Owner may, and without relieving the Contractor of its indemnity obligations, assume any defense obligation and try or settle such claim, and the Contractor: (1) shall reimburse the Owner for all costs and expenses incurred or paid by any Indemnitee in such defense, settlement, trial or arbitration, and (2) pay any judgment or award obtained against the Indemnitees or any of them to the extent the Contractor is responsible pursuant to the Contract Documents. This provision is separate and distinct from, and in addition to, any other provision, paragraph or section in the Contract Documents, including any provision, paragraph or section concerning indemnification and procurement of insurance.

ARTICLE 4 ARCHITECT § 4.1 General (Paragraphs deleted) § 4.1.1 The "Architect" is the person or entity retained by the Owner pursuant to Section 2.3.2 and identified as such in the Agreement. § 4.1.2 At the Owner’s discretion, the duties of the Architect described herein, other than those that require licensure as an architect under applicable law, may be performed by the Owner or the Owner’s other designated representative (e.g., the role of reviewing and certifying Applications for Payment and approving Change Orders). The Owner may do so by providing the Contractor written notice of any such role which the Owner or other designated representative is to assume. Neither this nor any other provision of the Contract Documents shall be deemed to relieve the Architect of its obligations to the Owner under the separate agreement between the Owner and the Architect. § 4.2 Administration of the Contract (Paragraphs deleted) § 4.2.1 The Architect will provide administration of the Contract as described in the Contract Documents and will be an Owner’s representative during construction until the date the Architect issues the final Certificate for Payment. The Architect will have authority to act on behalf of the Owner only to the extent provided in the Contract Documents. § 4.2.2 The Architect will visit the site at intervals appropriate to the stage of construction, or as otherwise agreed with the Owner, to become familiar with the progress and quality of the portion of the Work completed, and to determine if the Work observed is being performed in a manner indicating that the Work is being performed in accordance with the Contract Documents. However, the Architect will not be required to make exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the Work. The Architect will not have control over, charge of, or responsibility for the construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, or for the safety precautions and programs in connection with the Work, since these are solely the Contractor’s rights and responsibilities under the Contract Documents. § 4.2.3 On the basis of the site visits, the Architect will keep the Owner reasonably informed about the progress and quality of the portion of the Work completed, and promptly report to the Owner (1) known deviations from the Contract Documents, (2) known deviations from the most recent construction schedule submitted by the Contractor, and (3) defects and deficiencies observed in the Work. The Architect will not be responsible for the Contractor’s failure to perform the Work in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents. The Architect will not have control over or charge of, and will not be responsible for acts or omissions of, the Contractor, Subcontractors, or their agents or employees, or any other persons or entities performing portions of the Work. § 4.2.4 Communications The Owner and Contractor shall promptly notify the Architect of all communications between them that relate to or affect the Architect’s services or professional responsibilities. Communications by and with the Architect’s consultants shall be through the Architect. Contractor shall make all communications with the Owner through the Owner’s authorized representatives. Communications by and with Subcontractors and suppliers shall be through the Contractor. Communications by and with Separate Contractors shall be through the Owner. The Contract Documents may specify other communication protocols.

Whenever the Architect considers it necessary or advisable, the Architect will recommend that the Owner require inspection or testing of the Work in accordance with Sections 13.4.2 and 13.4.3, whether or not the Work is fabricated, installed or completed. However, neither this authority of the Architect nor a decision made in good faith either to exercise or not to exercise such authority shall give rise to a duty or responsibility of the Architect to the Contractor, Subcontractors, suppliers, their agents or employees, or other persons or entities performing portions of the Work. § 4.2.7 The Architect will review and approve, or take other appropriate action upon, the Contractor’s submittals such as Shop Drawings, Product Data, and Samples, for the limited purpose of checking for conformance with information given and the design concept expressed in the Contract Documents. The Architect’s action will be taken in accordance with the submittal schedule approved by the Architect or, in the absence of an approved submittal schedule, with reasonable promptness while allowing sufficient time in the Architect’s professional judgment to permit adequate review. Review of such submittals is not conducted for the purpose of determining the accuracy and completeness of other details such as dimensions and quantities, or for substantiating instructions for installation or performance of equipment or systems, all of which remain the responsibility of the Contractor as required by the Contract Documents. Review of the Contractor’s submittals shall not relieve the Contractor of the obligations under Sections 3.3, 3.5, and 3.12 and shall not constitute approval of safety precautions or of any construction means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures. Approval of a specific item shall not indicate approval of an assembly of which the item is a component. § 4.2.8 At the Owner’s request, the Architect will prepare Change Orders and Construction Change Directives, and the Architect with the Owner’s written consent may order minor changes in the Work as provided in Section 7.4. The Architect will investigate and make determinations and recommendations regarding concealed and unknown conditions as provided in Section 3.7.4. § 4.2.9 The Architect will conduct inspections to determine the date or dates of Substantial Completion and the date of Final Completion; issue Certificates of Substantial Completion pursuant to Section 9.8; receive and forward to the Owner, for the Owner’s review and records, written warranties and related documents required by the Contract and assembled by the Contractor pursuant to Section 9.10; and issue a final Certificate for Payment pursuant to Section 9.10. § 4.2.10 If the Owner and Architect agree, the Architect will provide one or more Project representatives to assist in carrying out the Architect’s responsibilities at the site. The Owner shall notify the Contractor of any change in the duties, responsibilities and limitations of authority of the Project representatives. § 4.2.11 The Architect will provide a written opinion on matters concerning performance under, and requirements of, the Contract Documents on written request of either the Owner or Contractor. The Architect’s response to such requests will be made in writing within any time limits agreed upon or otherwise with reasonable promptness. The Contractor shall copy the Owner’s Representative on any such written requests to the Architect submitted pursuant to this Section, and decisions of the Owner’s Representative shall take precedence over the decisions of the Architect in the event of conflict with opinions of the Architect. § 4.2.12 Interpretations and decisions of the Architect will be consistent with the intent of, and reasonably inferable from, the Contract Documents and will be in writing or in the form of drawings.

The term "Subcontractor" does not include a Separate Contractor or the subcontractors of a Separate Contractor. § 5.1.2 A "Sub-subcontractor" is a person or entity who has a direct or indirect contract with a Subcontractor to perform a portion of the Work at the site. The term "Sub-subcontractor" is referred to throughout the Contract Documents as if singular in number and means a Sub-subcontractor or an authorized representative of the Sub-subcontractor. § 5.2 Award of Subcontracts and Other Contracts for Portions of the Work (Paragraphs deleted) § 5.2.1 Unless otherwise stated in the Contract Documents, the Contractor, as soon as practicable after award of the Contract, shall notify the Owner and Architect of the persons or entities proposed for each principal portion of the Work, including, as to proposed self-performed Work the Contractor, and those who are to furnish materials or equipment fabricated to a special design. Within fourteen (14) days of receipt of the information, the Owner or Architect may notify the Contractor whether the Owner or the Architect (1) has reasonable objection to any such proposed person or entity or (2) requires additional time for review. Failure of both the Owner and Architect to provide notice within the 14-day period shall constitute notice of no reasonable objection. The Owner’s recommendation and/or approval of a Subcontractor or supplier is for its own benefit and in no way shall make the Owner responsible for such Subcontractor or supplier or make the Owner responsible for the means and methods of performing the Work. § 5.2.2 The Contractor shall not contract with a proposed person or entity to whom the Owner or Architect has made reasonable and timely objection. The Contractor shall not be required to contract with anyone to whom the Contractor has made reasonable objection. § 5.2.3 If the Owner or Architect has reasonable objection to a person or entity proposed by the Contractor, the Contractor shall propose another to whom the Owner and the Architect have no reasonable objection.

Each subcontract agreement shall preserve and protect the rights of the Owner and Architect under the Contract Documents with respect to the Work to be performed by the Subcontractor so that subcontracting thereof will not prejudice such rights, and shall allow to the Subcontractor, unless specifically provided otherwise in the subcontract agreement, the benefit of all rights, remedies, and redress against the Contractor that the Contractor, by the Contract Documents, has against the Owner. The Contractor shall cause the Contract to be incorporated by reference in all agreements entered into between it and its Subcontractors, such that the terms and conditions of the Contract flow down to and bind all Subcontractors, whether specifically required or not by any provision of the Contract Documents except as it relates to conditions precedent to payment terms that are more stringent than this Contract. Additionally, unless otherwise agreed by the Owner in writing, each subcontract agreement shall require or provide that: (a) nothing in the Contract Documents will create a contractual relationship between the Owner and a DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Init. / AIA Document A201 – 2017.

Subcontractors will similarly make copies of applicable portions of such documents available to their respective proposed Sub-subcontractors. The Contractor shall deliver copies of all signed subcontracts and purchase orders with Subcontractors and suppliers to the Owner promptly after the full execution thereof. § 5.4 Contingent Assignment of Subcontracts (Paragraphs deleted) § 5.4.1 Each subcontract agreement for a portion of the Work is assigned by the Contractor to the Owner, provided that .1 assignment is effective only after termination of the Contract by the Owner and only for those subcontract agreements that the Owner accepts by notifying the Subcontractor and Contractor; and .2 assignment is subject to the prior rights of the surety, if any, obligated under bond relating to the Contract.

However, nothing herein shall make the Owner responsible or liable to the Contractor for the Owner’s Separate Contractors’ failure to maintain required insurance. § 6.1.3 The Owner shall provide for coordination of the activities of the Owner’s own forces and of each Separate Contractor with the Work of the Contractor, who shall cooperate with them. The Contractor shall participate with any Separate Contractors and the Owner in reviewing their construction schedules. The Contractor shall make any revisions to its construction schedule deemed necessary after a joint review and mutual agreement. The construction schedules shall then constitute the schedules to be used by the Contractor, Separate Contractors, and the Owner until subsequently revised. § 6.1.4 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, when the Owner performs construction or operations related to the Project with the Owner’s own forces or with Separate Contractors, the Owner or its Separate Contractors shall have the same obligations and rights that the Contractor has under the Conditions of the Contract, including, without excluding others, those stated in Article 3, this Article 6, and Articles 10, 11, and 12. § 6.2 Mutual Responsibility (Paragraphs deleted) § 6.2.1 The Contractor shall afford the Owner and Separate Contractors reasonable opportunity for introduction and storage of their materials and equipment and performance of their activities, and shall connect and coordinate the Contractor’s construction and operations with theirs as required by the Contract Documents. § 6.2.2 If part of the Contractor’s Work depends for proper execution or results upon construction or operations by the Owner or a Separate Contractor, the Contractor shall, prior to proceeding with that portion of the Work, promptly notify the Owner and Architect of apparent discrepancies or defects in the construction or operations by the Owner or Separate Contractor that would render it unsuitable for proper execution and results of the Contractor’s Work. Failure of the Contractor to notify the Owner and Architect of apparent discrepancies or defects prior to proceeding with the Work shall constitute an acknowledgment that the Owner’s or Separate Contractor’s completed or partially completed construction is fit and proper to receive the Contractor’s Work. The Contractor shall not be responsible for discrepancies or defects in the construction or operations by the Owner or Separate Contractor that are not apparent. § 6.2.3 The Contractor shall reimburse the Owner for costs the Owner incurs that are payable to a Separate Contractor because of the Contractor’s delays, improperly timed activities defective construction.

A Construction Change Directive requires agreement by the Owner and may or may not be agreed to by the Contractor. An order for a minor change in the Work may be issued by the Architect alone, subject to the Owner’s prior written approval. § 7.1.3 Changes in the Work shall be performed under applicable provisions of the Contract Documents. The Contractor shall proceed promptly with changes in the Work, unless otherwise provided in the Change Order, Construction Change Directive, or order for a minor change in the Work. § 7.1.4 In order to facilitate checking of quotations for extras or credits, all proposals (including as part of CORs, as defined below in Section 7.5) shall be accompanied by a complete itemization of both budgeted costs and actual costs, including labor hours, labor burden and labor rates used, and material, equipment, and subcontract costs, all of which shall be broken down by CSI Division (or by line item in the approved Schedule of Values, if different) and supported by Subcontractor and supplier quotes and other actual cost documentation, and such other supporting documentation and information as reasonably requested by the Owner or the Architect. Where major cost items are subcontracts, they shall be itemized also. § 7.2 Change Orders (Paragraphs deleted) § 7.2.1 A Change Order is a written instrument prepared by the Contractor or the Architect and signed by the Owner, Contractor, and Architect stating their agreement upon all of the following: .1 The change in the Work; .2 The amount of the adjustment, if any, in the Guaranteed Maximum Price; and .3 The extent of the adjustment, if any, in the Contract Time. Agreement on any Change Order shall constitute a final settlement of all matters relating to the change in the Work that is the subject of the Change Order, including all direct and indirect costs associated with such change and any and all adjustments to the GMP and Contract Time, except to the extent clearly specified otherwise in the Change Order. § 7.3 Construction Change Directives (Paragraphs deleted) § 7.3.1 A Construction Change Directive is a written order signed by the Owner and, if required by the Owner, the Architect, directing a change in the Work prior to agreement on adjustment, if any, in the Guaranteed Maximum Price or Contract Time, or both. The Owner may by Construction Change Directive, without invalidating the Contract, order changes in the Work within the general scope of the Contract consisting of additions, deletions, or other revisions, the Guaranteed Maximum Price and Contract Time being adjusted accordingly. § 7.3.2 A Construction Change Directive shall be used in the absence of total agreement on the terms of a Change Order. § 7.3.3 If the Construction Change Directive provides for an adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the adjustment shall be based on one of the following methods: .1 Mutual acceptance of a lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation; .2 Unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon; .3 Cost of the Work for the changed Work to be determined in a manner specified in the Agreement or as otherwise agreed upon by the Parties in writing and a fixed or percentage fee as set forth in the Agreement; or .4 As provided in Section 7.3.4. § 7.3.4 If the Contractor does not respond promptly or disagrees with the method for adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Owner shall determine the adjustment on the basis of reasonable expenditures and savings of those performing the Work attributable to the change, including an amount for the Contractor’s Fee as set forth in the Agreement. In such case, and also under Section 7.3.3.3, the Contractor shall keep and present, in such form as the DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Init. / AIA Document A201 – 2017.

Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, costs for the purposes of this Section 7.3.4 shall be limited to the Cost of the Work for the changed Work as set forth in the Agreement. § 7.3.5 If the Contractor disagrees with the adjustment in the Contract Time, the Contractor may make a Claim in accordance with applicable provisions of Article 15 subject to the Contractor’s compliance with notice requirements and other preconditions to and limitations on claims for adjustment in the Contract Time in the Contract. § 7.3.6 Upon receipt of a Construction Change Directive, the Contractor shall promptly proceed with the change in the Work involved and notify the Owner and Architect of the Contractor’s agreement or disagreement with the method, if any, provided in the Construction Change Directive for determining the proposed adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price or Contract Time. § 7.3.7 A Construction Change Directive signed by the Contractor indicates the Contractor’s agreement therewith, including adjustment in Guaranteed Maximum Price and Contract Time or the method for determining them. Such agreement shall be effective immediately and shall be recorded as a Change Order. § 7.3.8 The amount of credit to be allowed by the Contractor to the Owner for a deletion or change that results in a net decrease in the Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be actual net cost as confirmed by the Owner as set forth in Section 7.3.4 and Contractor’s Fee thereon. When both additions and credits covering related Work or substitutions are involved in a change, the allowance for the Contractor’s Fee shall be figured on the basis of net increase or decrease with respect to that change. § 7.3.9 Pending final determination of the total cost of a Construction Change Directive to the Owner, the Contractor may request payment for Work completed under the Construction Change Directive in Applications for Payment. The Owner will make an interim determination for purposes of monthly certification for payment for those costs and permit the Architect to certify for payment the amount that the Owner determines, in the Owner’s reasonable judgment, to be reasonably justified. The Owner’s interim determination of cost shall adjust the Guaranteed Maximum Price on the same basis as a Change Order, subject to the right of the Contractor to disagree and assert a Claim in accordance with Article 15. § 7.3.10 When the Owner and Contractor agree with a determination made by the Owner concerning the adjustments in the Guaranteed Maximum Price and Contract Time, or otherwise reach agreement upon the adjustments, such agreement shall be effective immediately and the Contractor, or at the Owner’s request, the Architect, will prepare a Change Order. Change Orders may be issued for all or any part of a Construction Change Directive. § 7.4 Minor Changes in the Work The Architect, with the Owner’s prior written approval, may order minor changes in the Work that are consistent with the intent of the Contract Documents and do not involve an adjustment in the Contract Sum or an extension of the Contract Time. The Architect’s order for minor changes shall be in writing. If the Contractor believes that the proposed minor change in the Work will affect the Contract Sum or Contract Time, the Contractor shall notify the Architect and shall not proceed to implement the change in the Work. If the Contractor performs the Work set forth in the Architect’s order for a minor change without prior notice to the Architect that such change will affect the Contract Sum or Contract Time, the Contractor waives any adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price or extension of the Contract Time. § 7.5 If the Contractor becomes aware of any circumstance that may be a change in the scope of the Work, or of an act or failure to act by the Owner, the Architect, or the Owner’s other consultants, that in the Contractor’s opinion justifies a change to the Guaranteed Maximum Price or Contract Time, or if the Contractor otherwise becomes aware of the need for or desirability of a change in the Work, then the Contractor must within five (5) business days submit a written Notice of Potential Change Order (a "PCO") to the Owner and the Architect, in the form attached as an exhibit to the Agreement, advising the Owner of the potential change and specifying the reasons for such proposed change and the anticipated time and cost impacts. The Contractor shall submit a written Rough Order of Magnitude ("ROM"), which shall include a more detailed description of the changed Work, an estimated price for such changed Work and estimated adjustment to the Contract Time related to such changed Work, together with any substantiating data required by Sections 7.1.4 or 15.1.6, or otherwise required by the Owner or the Architect, within ten (10) business days after delivery of the PCO.

The Contractor shall clearly label PCOs, ROMs and CORs as such when submitting them to the Owner. In the event that the scope of changed Work, the price of such changed Work and the time impact of such changed Work is known within the time for submitting an ROM, the Contractor may elect not to deliver to the Owner an ROM but rather proceed directly to the delivery to the Owner of a COR within the time for delivery of an ROM. The Contractor may request additional compensation and/or time through a COR but not for instances that the Contractor knew or reasonably should have known occurred more than twenty-one (21) calendar days prior to the date an ROM or COR (if the Contractor elects to deliver a COR within such twenty-one (21) calendar-day period) is submitted. The Contractor’s failure to deliver a ROM or COR within such periods shall be deemed a waiver of the right to adjustment of the Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Contract Time for the alleged change. Any COR that is approved by the Owner will be incorporated in a Change Order or Construction Change Directive. If the Owner determines that the Work in question is not a change in the scope of the Work and the COR is denied but the Contractor believes that it does have merit, the Contractor may submit a Claim in accordance with the procedures set forth herein. The time frames in this Section 7.5 shall control over those specified in Article 15. Further, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Contractor must comply with the provisions of this Section 7.5 as a condition to entitlement to any Claim for an increase in the Contract Time or Guaranteed Maximum Price. § 7.6 The Owner may issue a request, in writing, to the Contractor, describing a proposed change to the Work and requesting the Contractor submit an itemized proposal in a format acceptable to the Owner within ten (10) business days after the Owner issues the request. The Contractor’s proposal shall include an analysis of impacts to cost and time, if any, to perform additional work, or delete Work, as applicable, including the effects and impacts, if any, on unchanged Work, estimates of costs and the Contractor’s proposed methods to minimize costs, delay and disruption to the performance of the Work. If the Contractor fails to submit a written proposal or request additional time for submitting the proposal within the 10-business day time period, then the Owner may send a subsequent written notice to the Contractor requesting the Contractor’s proposal. If the Contractor fails to submit a written proposal or request for additional time for submitting the proposal within ten (10) business days after receipt of such subsequent written notice, it shall be presumed that the change described in the Owner’s request for a proposed change will not result in a modification to the Guaranteed Maximum Price or Contract Time and the change shall be performed by the Contractor without additional compensation. The Owner’s request for a proposed change does not authorize the Contractor to commence performance of the change, unless otherwise specified in writing. If the Owner decides that the proposed change shall be performed, the Work shall be authorized according to the Change Order or Construction Change Directive procedures set forth above. § 7.7 The Contractor shall make a good faith determination of the validity of the nature and amount of changes requested by Subcontractors before passing through such requests to the Owner. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to check all Subcontractor and supplier questions for correctness, completeness, detail and fairness before submitting to the Owner. ARTICLE 8 TIME § 8.1 Definitions (Paragraphs deleted) § 8.1.1 Unless otherwise provided, "Contract Time" is the period of time, including authorized adjustments, allotted in the Contract Documents for Substantial Completion of the Work. § 8.1.2 The date of commencement of the Work is the date established in the Agreement. § 8.1.3 The date of Substantial Completion is the date established in accordance with Section 9.8. § 8.1.4 The term "day" as used in the Contract Documents shall mean calendar day unless otherwise specifically defined. § 8.2 Progress and Completion (Paragraphs deleted) § 8.2.1 Time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Contract. By executing the Agreement, the Contractor confirms that the Contract Time is a reasonable period for performing the Work.

The Project owns the Float, which means Float is not for the exclusive use of any of the Parties and it serves whoever needs it first as long as it is used in good faith. § 8.3 Delays and Extensions of Time (Paragraphs deleted) § 8.3.1 If the Contractor is delayed at any time in the critical path of the Work by (1) an act or neglect of the Owner, a Separate Contractor, or the Architect, of an employee of either, or of a Separate Contractor; (2) changes ordered in the Work; (3) labor disputes, government shut downs for pandemics, epidemics or similar events, fire, unusual delay in deliveries, unavoidable casualties, adverse weather conditions documented in accordance with Section 15.1.6.2, or other causes beyond the Contractor’s control; (4) delay authorized by the Owner pending mediation and binding dispute resolution; or (5) other causes beyond the Contractor’s control that the Contractor asserts, and the Owner determines, justify delay, then the Contract Time shall be extended by Change Order or Construction Change Directive to the extent such delay will prevent the Contractor from achieving Substantial Completion within the Contract Time (or, in the case of Final Completion after having achieved Substantial Completion, delay the Contractor in achieving Final Completion by the Final Completion Date) and by exercise of reasonable diligent effort, the Contractor is unable to prevent or overcome. However, adjustments in the Contract Time (or Final Completion Date) will be permitted for a delay only to the extent such delay (a) is not caused by the acts, omissions, or other fault of the Contractor, any Subcontractors or vendors of any tier, any of their employees, or anyone else for whom any of them is responsible, and was not reasonably anticipatable by any of them at the time of execution of the Guaranteed Maximum Price amendment, (b) could not be limited or avoided by the Contractor’s timely notice to the Owner of the delay or reasonable likelihood that the delay will occur, (c) delays the critical path of the Work, and (d) written notice is provided to the Owner and the Architect in writing within five (5) business days after Contractor knows of the commencement of each such delay. For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding notice requirement only pertains to notice of the delay, not a Change Order or Claim based thereon (which Change Orders and Claims are subject to the notice provisions of Section 7.5 and Article 15). To the extent the Contractor is entitled under the Contract Documents to an extension of time due to a delay, but the performance of the Work is independently suspended, delayed, or interrupted during the same time period by a delay for which the Contractor is not entitled to an extension of time, that period of delay shall be deemed to be a "Concurrent Delay." In the case of a Concurrent Delay, the Contractor shall be entitled to an extension of the Contract Time but the Contractor shall not be entitled to any additional compensation whatsoever during the period of Concurrent Delay. The Contractor shall take all reasonable steps to mitigate the impact of any delays, however caused, regardless of whether the Contractor might otherwise be entitled to adjustment of the Contract Sum or Contract Time for such delays. § 8.3.2 Claims relating to time shall be made in accordance with applicable provisions of Section 7.5 and Article 15. § 8.3.3 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, an adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price shall only be allowed for delays for which, pursuant to Section 8.3.1, the Contractor is entitled to an extension of the Contract Time but not for Concurrent Delays, and such adjustment under or pursuant to this Section 8.3.3 shall be limited to adjustment of General Conditions Costs as provided in Section 6.1.7 of the Agreement. The Contractor waives and releases any and all other rights to reimbursement or other compensation for time related losses and expenses, whether direct or indirect, and other delay-related rights and claims, including: (1) Contractor’s Fee markup on extended General Conditions Costs, (2) loss of anticipated profit, (3) indirect expenses, (4) impact costs, (5) loss of productivity, (6) inefficiency costs, (7) home-office overhead, (8) consequential damages, including loss of bonding capacity, loss of bidding opportunities and insolvency; and (9) attorneys’ fees, claims preparation expenses, and all other costs of dispute resolution.

ARTICLE 9 PAYMENTS AND COMPLETION § 9.1 Contract Sum (Paragraphs deleted) § 9.1.1 The Contract Sum is stated in the Agreement and, including authorized adjustments, is the total amount payable by the Owner to the Contractor for performance of the Work under the Contract Documents. § 9.1.2 If unit prices are stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon, and if quantities originally contemplated are materially changed so that application of such unit prices to the actual quantities causes substantial inequity to the Owner or Contractor, the applicable unit prices shall be equitably adjusted. § 9.2 Schedule of Values The Contractor shall submit a schedule of values to the Architect and the Owner before the first Application for Payment for the Owner’s review and approval, which shall allocate the entire Guaranteed Maximum Price to the various portions of the Work. The schedule of values shall be prepared in the form, and supported by the data to substantiate its accuracy, required by the Owner. The most recent schedule of values approved by the Owner (i.e. the "Schedule of Values") shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Contractor’s Applications for Payment. The Schedule of Values shall be updated each month by the Contractor, subject to the Owner’s review and written approval, to reflect all approved Change Orders and Construction Change Directives which may have been issued by the Owner during the period covered by the current Application for Payment. Any changes to the Schedule of Values shall be submitted to the Owner and Architect and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as the Owner or Architect may require. Without limiting the foregoing, Schedule of Values line items and line-item amounts shall not be modified by the Contractor unless the Owner executes a Change Order or Construction Change Directing expressly authorizing specified additions, deletions or revisions to specific Schedule of Values line items and/or line-item amounts. § 9.3 Applications for Payment (Paragraphs deleted) § 9.3.1 At the times established in the Agreement therefor, the Contractor shall submit to the Owner and Architect an itemized Application for Payment prepared in accordance with the approved Schedule of Values for completed portions of the Work. The application shall be notarized, if required, and supported by all data substantiating the Contractor’s right to payment that the Owner or Architect require, such as copies of requisitions, and releases and waivers of liens from Subcontractors and suppliers, and shall reflect retainage as provided for in the Contract Documents. Upon request of the Owner, Contractor shall provide a certified statement accounting for the disbursement of funds received from the Owner, which shall itemize all disbursements to Subcontractors and suppliers and shall be accompanied by copies of Subcontractor payment vouchers, suppliers’ invoices, payrolls, and other data substantiating actual expenditures. § 9.3.1.1 As provided in Section 7.3.9, such applications may include requests for payment on account of changes in the Work that have been properly authorized by Construction Change Directives, or by interim determinations of the Owner, but not yet included in Change Orders. § 9.3.1.2 Applications for Payment shall not include requests for payment for portions of the Work for which the Contractor does not intend to pay a Subcontractor or supplier because of a dispute or any other reason, unless such Work has been performed by others whom the Contractor intends to pay. § 9.3.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents or approved by the Owner in writing, payments shall be made on account of materials and equipment delivered and suitably stored at the site for subsequent incorporation in the Work. If approved in advance by the Owner, payment may similarly be made for materials and equipment suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in writing. Payment for materials and equipment stored on or off the site shall be conditioned upon compliance by the Contractor with procedures satisfactory to the Owner to establish the DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Init. / AIA Document A201 – 2017.

The Contractor further warrants that upon submittal of an Application for Payment all Work for which Certificates for Payment have been previously issued and payments received from the Owner shall be free and clear of liens, claims, security interests, or encumbrances, in favor of the Contractor, Subcontractors, suppliers, or other persons or entities that provided labor, materials, and equipment relating to the Work. § 9.4 Certificates for Payment (Paragraphs deleted) § 9.4.1 The Architect will, within ten(10) days after receipt of the Contractor’s properly completed Application for Payment and all supporting documentation and information required by the Contract Documents, either (1) issue to the Owner a Certificate for Payment in the full amount of the Application for Payment, with a copy to the Contractor; or (2) issue to the Owner a Certificate for Payment for such amount as the Architect determines is properly due, and notify the Contractor and Owner of the Architect’s reasons for withholding certification in part as provided in Section 9.5.1; or (3) withhold certification of the entire Application for Payment, and notify the Contractor and Owner of the Architect’s reason for withholding certification in whole as provided in Section 9.5.1. § 9.4.2 The issuance of a Certificate for Payment will constitute a representation by the Architect to the Owner, based on the Architect’s evaluation of the Work and the data in the Application for Payment, that, to the best of the Architect’s knowledge, information, and belief, the Work has progressed to the point indicated, the quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents, and that the Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount certified. The foregoing representations are subject to an evaluation of the Work for conformance with the Contract Documents upon Substantial Completion, to results of subsequent tests and inspections, to correction of minor deviations from the Contract Documents prior to completion, and to specific qualifications expressed by the Architect. However, the issuance of a Certificate for Payment will not be a representation that the Architect has (1) made exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the Work; (2) reviewed construction means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures; (3) reviewed copies of requisitions received from Subcontractors and suppliers and other data requested by the Owner to substantiate the Contractor’s right to payment; or (4) made examination to ascertain how or for what purpose the Contractor has used money previously paid on account of the Contract Sum. § 9.5 Decisions to Withhold Certification (Paragraphs deleted) § 9.5.1 The Architect may withhold a Certificate for Payment in whole or in part, to the extent reasonably necessary to protect the Owner, if in the Architect’s opinion the representations to the Owner required by Section 9.4.2 cannot be made. If the Architect is unable to certify payment in the amount of the Application, the Architect will notify the Contractor and Owner as provided in Section 9.4.1. If the Contractor and Architect cannot agree on a revised amount, the Architect will promptly issue a Certificate for Payment for the amount for which the Architect is able to make such representations to the Owner. The Architect may also withhold a Certificate for Payment or, because of subsequently discovered evidence, may nullify the whole or a part of a Certificate for Payment previously issued, and the Owner may withhold a payment, or because of subsequently discovered evidence, offset against any current payment otherwise due amounts previously paid, to such extent as may be necessary in the Architect’s or the Owner’s opinion to protect the Owner from loss for which the Contractor is responsible, including loss resulting from acts and omissions described in Section 3.3.2, because of .1 defective Work not remedied; .2 third-party claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of such claims, unless security acceptable to the Owner is provided by the Contractor; .3 failure of the Contractor to make payments properly to Subcontractors or suppliers for labor, materials or equipment; .4 reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Guaranteed Maximum Price (in which event no additional payments will be due the Contractor hereunder unless and until the Contractor, at its sole cost, performs a sufficient portion of the Work so that the portion of the Guaranteed Maximum Price then remaining unpaid is sufficient to complete the Work); .5 damage to the Owner or a Separate Contractor; DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Init. / AIA Document A201 – 2017.

No interest shall be payable to the Contractor for amounts properly withheld pursuant to Section 9.5.1. § 9.5.3 When the reasons for withholding certification are removed, certification will be made for amounts previously withheld. § 9.5.4 If the Architect withholds certification for payment, or the Owner withholds payment, under Section 9.5.1.3, the Owner may, at its sole option, issue joint checks to the Contractor and to any Subcontractor or supplier to whom the Contractor failed to make payment for Work properly performed or material or equipment suitably delivered. Further, the Owner may, in its sole discretion, issue joint checks to the Contractor and to any Subcontractor or supplier as provided in preceding Section 9.5.4, for any reason other than that specified in Section 9.5.1.3, upon five (5) days prior written notice to the Contractor. If the Owner makes payments by joint check, (a) the Owner shall notify the Architect, (b) such amount shall be credited against any payment due to the Contractor hereunder and the Owner shall be relieved and released from the obligation to make such payment to the Contractor, and (c) the Contractor shall reflect such payment on its next Application for Payment. The Owner’s reserved right to issue joint checks shall not be construed as imposing any obligation upon the Owner to do so. The Owner’s exercise of its right to make payment by joint check to particular Subcontractors or suppliers shall not be construed as imposing any obligation upon the Owner to make such payments to other Subcontractors or suppliers. The Owner’s exercise of its right to make payments by joint check to some or all Subcontractors or suppliers during particular pay periods shall not be construed as imposing any obligation upon the Owner to make such payments to such Subcontractors or suppliers for other pay periods. § 9.6 Progress Payments (Paragraphs deleted) § 9.6.1 After the Architect has issued a Certificate for Payment, subject to the satisfaction of all other conditions precedent to payment, the Owner shall make payment in the manner and within the time provided in the Contract Documents, and shall so notify the Architect. § 9.6.2 The Contractor shall pay each Subcontractor, no later than seven (7) days after receipt of payment from the Owner, the amount to which the Subcontractor is entitled, reflecting percentages actually retained from payments to the Contractor on account of the Subcontractor’s portion of the Work. The Contractor shall, by appropriate agreement with each Subcontractor, require each Subcontractor to make payments to Sub-subcontractors in a similar manner. § 9.6.3 The Architect will, on request, furnish to a Subcontractor, if practicable, information regarding percentages of completion or amounts applied for by the Contractor and action taken thereon by the Architect and Owner on account of portions of the Work done by such Subcontractor. § 9.6.4 The Owner has the right to request written evidence from the Contractor that the Contractor has properly paid Subcontractors and suppliers amounts paid by the Owner to the Contractor for subcontracted Work. If the Contractor fails to furnish such evidence within seven (7) days, the Owner shall have the right to contact Subcontractors and suppliers to ascertain whether they have been properly paid. Neither the Owner nor Architect shall have an obligation to pay, or to see to the payment of money to, a Subcontractor or supplier, except as may otherwise be required by law. § 9.6.5 The Contractor’s payments to suppliers shall be treated in a manner similar to that provided in Sections 9.6.2, 9.6.3 and 9.6.4. § 9.6.6 A Certificate for Payment, a progress payment, or partial or entire use or occupancy of the Project by the Owner shall not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract Documents. § 9.6.7 Unless the Contractor provides the Owner with a payment bond in the full penal sum of the Guaranteed Maximum Price, payments received by the Contractor for Work properly performed by Subcontractors or provided by suppliers shall be held by the Contractor for those Subcontractors or suppliers who performed Work or furnished materials, or both, under contract with the Contractor for which payment was made by the Owner.

Upon receipt of notice of a lien claim or other claim for payment, the Owner shall notify the Contractor. If any lien or liens are claimed on the Owner’s or any other person’s or entity’s property by any person or entity as a result of the Work, to the extent of payments received by Contractor, Contractor shall cause the lien or liens to be satisfied or transferred to other security in accordance with Section 713.24, Florida Statutes. If the Contractor fails to do so within twenty (20) days after receiving notice of such lien or claim of lien, the Owner may take such action as it deems advisable to protect itself from such lien or claim of lien and the Contractor shall pay to the Owner the reasonable amounts incurred by the Owner, including reasonable attorneys’ fees in taking such protective action. The obligations of the Contractor under this Section 9.6.8 are in addition to and in no way to be construed as a limitation of the obligations of the Contractor’s or any Subcontractors’ surety under any payment bond. § 9.7 Failure of Payment § 9.7.1 If the Owner does not pay the Contractor within the time period established in the Contract Documents the undisputed amount due the Contractor, then the Contractor may, upon seven (7) days’ notice to the Owner and Architect, stop the Work until payment of the undisputed amount owing has been received. The Contract Time shall be extended appropriately and the Contract Sum shall be increased by the reasonable amount of the Contractor’s out-of-pocket costs necessarily incurred as a direct result of shutdown, delay and start-up, subject to the preconditions and limitations of Sections 7.5, 8.3 and other provisions of the Contract. § 9.7.2 If the Owner is entitled to reimbursement or payment from the Contractor pursuant to the Contract Documents, such payment shall be made within ten (10) days after the Owner’s written demand (unless a different time for such payment is expressly provided for in the Contract Documents). Notwithstanding anything in the Contract Documents to the contrary, if the Contractor fails to timely make any payment due the Owner or if the Owner incurs any costs and expenses to cure any default of the Contractor or to correct defective Work, the Owner shall have the right to offset such amount against the Guaranteed Maximum Price and may elect either to: (a) deduct an amount equal to that which the Owner is entitled from any payment then or thereafter due the Contractor from the Owner, or (b) issue a written notice to the Contractor reducing the Guaranteed Maximum Price by an amount equal to that which the Owner is entitled. § 9.8 Substantial Completion (Paragraphs deleted) § 9.8.1 Substantial Completion is the stage in the progress of the Work when the Work or designated portion thereof is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so that the Owner can lawfully occupy or utilize the Work for its intended use without material interference from unfinished or improperly finished items of Work and the Owner has accepted the Work as evidenced by the delivery from the Owner to the Contractor of a Certificate of Acceptance in form acceptable to the Owner; provided, however, (and without limitation) as conditions precedent to Substantial Completion, (a)the Owner must have received all required permits, approvals, licenses and other documents from any authority having jurisdiction thereof necessary to allow the Owner to occupy and operate the Project for its intended use, (b) all Project systems included in the Work are operational, and (c) all necessary instruction and training has been provided to the Owner’s personnel. § 9.8.2 When the Contractor considers that the Work, or a portion thereof which the Owner agrees to accept separately, is substantially complete, the Contractor shall prepare and submit to Owner and the Architect a comprehensive a proposed "Deficiency List" setting forth any items that are incomplete or found not to be done in accordance with the Contract Documents. Failure to include an item on such list does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. In connection with the preparation of the Deficiency List, the Contractor shall communicate with applicable Subcontractors to identify and explain all items that are found to be defective, incomplete or otherwise not in accordance with the Contract Documents. § 9.8.3 Upon receipt of the Contractor’s proposed Deficiency List (as provided in Section 9.8.2 above), the Architect (and, at the Owner’s option, the Owner) will make an inspection to determine whether the Work, or designated portion DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Init. / AIA Document A201 – 2017.

If such inspection discloses any item, whether or not included on the Contractor’s Deficiency List, which is not sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so that the Owner can occupy or utilize the Work or designated portion thereof for its intended use, the Contractor shall complete or correct such item upon notification by the Owner or Architect as a precondition to issuance of a Certificate of Substantial Completion. In such case, the Contractor shall then submit a request for another inspection by the Architect (and, at the Owner’s option, the Owner) to determine Substantial Completion. If more than two (2) inspections by the Architect are required for the same portion of the Work to determine whether such portion of the Work is substantially complete in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, or more than two (2) inspections by the Architect for any portion of the Work are required to determine whether completion of the same Punch List has been achieved, the Owner may require the Contractor to pay for any extra fees charged by the Architect for such additional inspections unless such additional inspections are required due to no fault of the Contractor or those for whom the Contractor is responsible. § 9.8.4 When the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete, the Architect will prepare a Certificate of Substantial Completion that shall establish the date of Substantial Completion; establish responsibilities of the Owner and Contractor for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance; and fix the time within which the Contractor shall finish all items on the Punch List accompanying the Certificate to include other items identified by the Owner or the Architect as requiring completion or correction (but minor enough so as not to preclude determination of Substantial Completion), such that the revised list does not constitute an additional punch list as defined in the Florida Prompt Payment Act. Warranties required by the Contract Documents shall commence on the date of Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Substantial Completion. § 9.8.5 The Certificate of Substantial Completion shall be submitted to the Owner and Contractor for their written acceptance of responsibilities assigned to them in the Certificate. Upon such acceptance, and consent of surety if any, the Owner shall make payment of retainage applying to the Work or designated portion thereof. Such payment shall be adjusted for Work that is incomplete or not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents in accordance with Section 11.1.8.3 of the Agreement. § 9.9 Partial Occupancy or Use (Paragraphs deleted) § 9.9.1 The Owner may occupy or use any completed or partially completed portion of the Work at any stage when such portion is designated by separate agreement with the Contractor, provided such occupancy or use is consented to by the insurer and authorized by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Project. Such partial occupancy or use may commence whether or not the portion is substantially complete, provided the Owner and Contractor have accepted in writing the responsibilities assigned to each of them for payments, retainage, if any, security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance, and have agreed in writing concerning the period for correction of the Work and commencement of warranties required by the Contract Documents. When the Contractor considers a portion of the Work, which the Owner has agreed in writing to accept separately, to be substantially complete (which, without limitation, requires a temporary or permanent Certificate of Occupancy for such portion from the governing authorities having jurisdiction over the Work and that all mechanical and electrical work be complete and functional within such portion of the Work), the Contractor shall prepare and submit a list to the Owner and Architect as provided under Section 9.8.2. Consent of the Contractor to partial occupancy or use shall not be unreasonably withheld. The stage of the progress of the Work shall be determined by written agreement between the Owner and Contractor or, if no agreement is reached, by decision of the Owner. § 9.9.2 Immediately prior to such partial occupancy or use, the Owner, Contractor, and Architect shall jointly inspect the area to be occupied or portion of the Work to be used in order to determine and record the condition of the Work. § 9.9.3 Unless otherwise agreed upon, partial occupancy or use of a portion or portions of the Work shall not constitute acceptance of Work not complying with the requirements of the Contract Documents. Further, partial occupancy shall not: (1) constitute final acceptance of any Work or (2) relieve the Contractor for responsibility for loss or damage because of or arising out of defects in, or malfunctioning of, any Work, material, or equipment, nor from any other unfulfilled obligations or responsibilities under the Contract Documents.

When the Owner and Architect find the Work acceptable under the Contract Documents and the Contract fully performed, the Architect will promptly issue a final Certificate for Payment stating that to the best of the Architect’s knowledge, information and belief, and on the basis of the Architect’s on-site visits and inspections, the Work has been completed in accordance with the Contract Documents and that the entire balance found to be due the Contractor and noted in the final Certificate is due and payable. The Architect’s final Certificate for Payment will constitute a further representation by the Architect that all conditions listed in Section 9.10.2 as precedent to the Contractor’s being entitled to final payment have been fulfilled. § 9.10.2 Final payment shall not become due until all conditions precedent to final payment set forth in the Contract have occurred or been satisfied and the Contractor submits to the Owner and Architect (1) a duly executed and notarized Contractor’s Final Payment Affidavit in statutory form confirming that payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which the Owner or the Owner’s property might be responsible or encumbered (less amounts withheld by Owner) have been paid or otherwise satisfied, (2) a certificate evidencing that insurance required by the Contract Documents to remain in force after final payment is currently in effect, (3) a written statement that the Contractor knows of no reason that the insurance will not be renewable to cover the period required by the Contract Documents, (4) consent of surety, if any, to final payment, (5) documentation of any special warranties, such as manufacturers’ warranties or specific Subcontractor warranties, (6) with the Owner’s maintenance personnel, the Contractor shall have directed the checkout and/or commissioning of utilities, operations systems, and equipment for readiness, and assisted in their initial start-up and testing, and performed training as required by the Contract Documents for same (including videotaping of such training for archival purposes) and (7) if required by the Owner, other data establishing payment or satisfaction of obligations, such as receipts and releases and waivers of liens, claims, security interests, or encumbrances arising out of the Contract, to the extent and in such form as may be designated by the Owner. If a Subcontractor refuses to furnish a release or waiver required by the Owner, the Contractor may furnish a bond satisfactory to the Owner to indemnify the Owner against such lien, claim, security interest, or encumbrance. If a lien, claim, security interest, or encumbrance remains unsatisfied after payments are made, the Contractor shall refund to the Owner all money that the Owner may be compelled to pay in discharging the lien, claim, security interest, or encumbrance, including all costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. § 9.10.3 If, after Substantial Completion of the Work, final completion thereof is materially delayed through no fault of the Contractor or by issuance of Change Orders affecting final completion, and the Architect so confirms, the Owner shall, upon application by the Contractor and certification by the Architect, and without terminating the Contract, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed, corrected, and accepted, provided that all other conditions precedent to final payment have occurred or been satisfied. If the remaining balance for Work not fully completed or corrected is less than retainage stipulated in the Contract Documents, and if bonds have been furnished, the written consent of the surety to payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by the Contractor to the Owner and Architect prior to certification of such payment. Such payment shall be made under terms and conditions governing final payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of Claims. § 9.10.4 The making of final payment shall constitute a waiver of Claims by the Owner except those arising from .1 liens, Claims, security interests, or encumbrances and unsettled; .2 failure of the Work to comply; .3 terms of special warranties; .4 audits performed by the Owner, if permitted by the Contract Documents, after final payment; .5 the Contractor’s indemnification obligations under the Contract; or, .6 any of other provisions of the Contract that expressly or by their nature shall survive termination or expiration of the Contract. § 9.10.5 Acceptance of final payment by the Contractor, a Subcontractor, or a supplier, shall constitute a waiver of claims by that payee except those previously made in writing and identified by that payee as unsettled at the time of final Application for Payment.

The review of any safety plan by the Owner or Architect shall not, and shall not be deemed to, release the Contractor or in any way diminish its liability, by way of indemnity or otherwise, as assumed by it under the Contract Documents. The Contractor expressly agrees that it is in charge of and in control of the Work and that it shall have sole exclusive responsibility to comply with the requirements of any and all Applicable Laws pertaining thereto. The Owner and the Architect are not in charge of the Work or in control of the execution of the Work. The Contractor shall, and shall cause its Subcontractors and suppliers to (in connection with any Work), comply with all Applicable Laws bearing on safety of persons or property or their protection from damage, injury or loss. § 10.2 Safety of Persons and Property (Paragraphs deleted) § 10.2.1 The Contractor shall take reasonable precautions for safety of, and shall provide reasonable protection to prevent damage, injury, or loss to .1 employees on the Work and other persons who may be affected thereby; .2 the Work and materials and equipment to be incorporated therein, whether in storage on or off the site, under care, custody, or control of the Contractor, a Subcontractor, or a Sub-subcontractor; and .3 other property at the site or adjacent thereto, such as trees, shrubs, lawns, walks, pavements, roadways, structures, and utilities not designated for removal, relocation, or replacement in the course of construction. § 10.2.2 The Contractor shall comply with, and give notices required by Applicable Laws bearing on safety of persons or property or their protection from damage, injury, or loss. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Contractor shall, and shall cause its employees, agents (including Subcontractors) and other representatives to, comply with the requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, as amended, and similar Applicable Laws. The Contractor shall be deemed the "employer" within the meaning of such Applicable Laws, and neither the Owner nor its consultants shall be responsible for any OSHA non-compliance in connection with performance of the Work. The Contractor shall notify the Owner immediately in the event of an Occupational Safety and Health Administration inspection when no Owner personnel are on site. § 10.2.3 The Contractor shall implement, erect, and maintain, as required by existing conditions and performance of the Contract, reasonable safeguards for safety and protection, including posting danger signs and other warnings against hazards; promulgating safety regulations; and notifying the owners and users of adjacent sites and utilities of the safeguards. Further, the Contractor shall employ all necessary measures to protect adjoining adjacent property and shall provide barricades, temporary fences and covered walkways required to protect the safety of passersby, as required by prudent construction practices, the Contract Documents and Applicable Laws. § 10.2.4 When use or storage of explosives or other hazardous materials or equipment, or unusual methods are necessary for execution of the Work, the Contractor shall exercise utmost care and carry on such activities under supervision of properly qualified and licensed personnel. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Contractor is solely responsible for maintaining and implementing at the Project site a "Hot Works Program" at no additional cost or charge to the Owner to fully protect against a loss resulting from work being performed that includes an open flame or producing heat or sparks, or both, including when welding, cutting, brazing, grinding, soldering, or using a torch to thaw piping or to heat material. The "Hot Works Program" shall at the very least require at a minimum precautionary safeguard checklists and proper instruction on the implementation to monitor and safeguard the area where work is being performed. § 10.2.5 The Contractor shall promptly remedy damage and loss to property referred to in Sections 10.2.1.2 and 10.2.1.3 (other than damage or loss insured under property insurance required of the Owner under the Contract Documents) caused in whole or in part by the Contractor, a Subcontractor, a Sub-subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or by anyone for whose acts they may be liable and for which the Contractor is responsible under Sections 10.2.1.2 and 10.2.1.3.

The foregoing obligations of the Contractor are in addition to the Contractor’s obligations under Section 3.18. § 10.2.6 The Contractor shall designate a responsible member of the Contractor’s organization at the site whose duty shall be the prevention of accidents. This person shall be the Contractor’s superintendent unless otherwise designated by the Contractor in writing to the Owner and Architect. § 10.2.7 The Contractor shall not permit any part of the construction or site to be loaded so as to cause damage or create an unsafe condition. Without limitation, when required by Applicable Laws or for the safety of the Work, the Contractor shall shore up, brace, underpin, and protect foundations and other portions of existing structures which are in any way affected by the Work. The Contractor, before commencement of any part of the Work, shall give any notices required to be given to adjoining landowners or other parties. § 10.2.8 Injury or Damage to Person or Property If either Party suffers injury or damage to person or property because of an act or omission of the other Party, or of others for whose acts such Party is legally responsible, notice of the injury or damage, whether or not insured, shall be given to the other Party within a reasonable time not exceeding ten (10) business days after discovery. The notice shall provide sufficient detail to enable the other Party to investigate the matter. Further, the Contractor shall promptly report in writing to the Owner and Architect all accidents which cause death, bodily injury, or property damage, giving full details and statements of any witnesses. In addition, if death, serious bodily injuries or serious property damage occur, the Contractor shall immediately report the accident by telephone or messenger to the Owner and Architect. § 10.3 Hazardous Materials and Substances (Paragraphs deleted) § 10.3.1 The Contractor is responsible for compliance with any requirements included in the Contract Documents regarding hazardous materials or substances. If the Contractor encounters a hazardous material or substance not addressed in the Contract Documents and otherwise concealed and not disclosed, and if reasonable precautions will be inadequate to prevent foreseeable bodily injury or death to persons resulting from a material or substance, including asbestos or polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB), encountered on the site by the Contractor, the Contractor shall, upon recognizing the condition, immediately stop Work in the affected area and notify the Owner and Architect of the condition. § 10.3.2 Upon receipt of the Contractor’s notice, the Owner shall obtain the services of a licensed laboratory to verify the presence or absence of the material or substance reported by the Contractor and, in the event such material or substance is found to be present, to cause it to be rendered harmless. Unless otherwise required by the Contract Documents, the Owner shall furnish in writing to the Contractor and Architect the names and qualifications of persons or entities who are to perform tests verifying the presence or absence of the material or substance or who are to perform the task of removal or safe containment of the material or substance. The Contractor and the Architect will promptly reply to the Owner in writing stating whether or not either has reasonable objection to the persons or entities proposed by the Owner. If either the Contractor or Architect has an objection to a person or entity proposed by the Owner, the Owner shall propose another to whom the Contractor and the Architect have no reasonable objection. When the material or substance has been rendered harmless, Work in the affected area shall resume upon written agreement of the Owner and Contractor. By Change Order, the Contract Time shall be extended appropriately and the Contract Sum shall be increased by the amount of the Contractor’s reasonable additional costs of shutdown, delay, and start-up, subject to the provisions and limitations of Articles 7 and 8. As used herein, the term "rendered harmless" shall be interpreted to mean that levels of asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) or any hazardous materials are less than any applicable exposure standards set forth in EPA and OSHA regulations. § 10.3.3 To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless the Contractor, Subcontractors, and the employees of any of them from and against claims, damages, losses, and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising out of or resulting from performance of the Work in the affected area if in fact the hazardous material or substance presents the risk of bodily injury or death as described in Section 10.3.1 and has not been rendered harmless, provided that such claim, damage, loss, or expense is attributable to bodily injury, sickness, disease or death, or to injury to or destruction of tangible property (other than the Work itself), except to the extent that such damage, loss, or expense is due to non-compliance with Section 10.3.4 below or otherwise is due to the fault or negligence of the Contractor, Subcontractors, or the employees of any of them.

The Contractor agrees not to use any fill or other materials to be incorporated into the Work which are hazardous, toxic or comprised of any items that are hazardous or toxic. The Owner shall not be responsible under this Section 10.3 for hazardous materials or substances the Contractor or anyone for whom the Contractor is responsible or liable brings to the site unless such materials or substances are required by the Contract Documents. The Owner shall be responsible for hazardous materials or substances required by the Contract Documents, except to the extent of the Contractor’s fault or negligence in the use and handling of such materials or substances. § 10.3.5 The Contractor shall reimburse the Owner for the cost and expense the Owner incurs (1) for remediation of hazardous materials or substances the Contractor brings to the site and negligently handles, or (2) where the Contractor fails to perform its obligations under Section 10.3.1, except to the extent that the cost and expense are due to the Owner’s fault or negligence. § 10.3.6 If, without fault or negligence on the part of the Contractor or anyone for whom the Contractor is responsible, the Contractor is held liable by a government agency for the cost of remediation of a hazardous material or substance solely by reason of performing Work as required by the Contract Documents, the Owner shall reimburse the Contractor for all cost and expense thereby incurred. § 10.3.7 The Contractor shall provide the Owner with Material Safety Data Sheets for all hazardous substances prior to bringing such materials to the Project site. § 10.4 Emergencies In an emergency affecting safety of persons or property, the Contractor shall act promptly, at the Contractor’s reasonable discretion, to prevent threatened damage, injury, or loss.

The amount of the insurance liability under this insurance policy shall not be reduced by the existence of other insurance. Information concerning reduction of coverage shall be furnished by the Contractor promptly but in no event later than three (3) business days after the Contractor obtains knowledge that coverage either will be reduced or has been reduced. Insurance coverage required in this Contract shall be additional security for the obligations assumed by the Contractor and in no event shall the types or limits of coverage required be deemed to limit any obligations or liabilities assumed under this Contract. The carrying of insurance shall not be deemed to release the Contractor or in any way diminish its liability or obligations, by way of indemnity or otherwise, under the Contract Documents. If the Contractor fails to purchase and maintain any insurance required under the Contract Documents, the Owner may but shall not be obligated to, upon three (3) business days prior written notice to the Contractor, purchase such insurance on behalf of the Contractor, and shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Contractor upon demand for the costs incurred by the Owner to procure such insurance. In no event shall any failure of the Owner to receive required evidence of insurance or to demand receipt of evidence prior to the Contractor’s commencing the Work be construed as a waiver by the Owner of the Contractor’s obligations to obtain insurance pursuant to the Contract Documents. The obligation to procure and maintain insurance required by the Contract Documents is a separate responsibility of the Contractor and independent of its duty to furnish the required evidence of such insurance policies. The delivery of the required evidence of insurance is a condition precedent to the Owner’s obligation to make payments. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency in the insurance requirements of the Contractor under the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall deliver prompt written notice to the Owner, but shall provide the insurance that meets the higher standard or better quality unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Owner. § 11.1.2 The Contractor shall provide surety bonds of the types, for such penal sums, and subject to such terms and conditions as required by the Contract Documents. The Contractor shall purchase and maintain the required bonds from a company or companies lawfully authorized to issue surety bonds in the jurisdiction where the Project is located. § 11.1.3 Upon the request of any person or entity appearing to be a potential beneficiary of bonds covering payment of obligations arising under the Contract, the Contractor shall promptly furnish a copy of the bonds or shall authorize a copy to be furnished. § 11.1.4 Notice of Cancellation or Expiration of Contractor’s Required Insurance. Within three (3) business days of the date the Contractor becomes aware of an impending or actual cancellation, expiration or non-renewal of, or material adverse change to, any insurance required by the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall provide notice to the Owner of such impending or actual cancellation or expiration. Upon receipt of notice from the Contractor, the Owner shall, unless the lapse in coverage arises from an act or omission of the Owner, have the right to stop the Work until the lapse in coverage has been cured by the procurement of replacement coverage by the Contractor. The furnishing of notice by the Contractor shall not relieve the Contractor of any contractual obligation to provide any required coverage. § 11.1.5 The Contractor shall cause each Subcontractor to purchase and maintain the insurance as is required of the Subcontractors under the Contract Documents. The coverage afforded under any insurance policy obtained under or pursuant to the Contract Documents shall be primary to and non-contributory with any valid and collectible insurance carried separately by any of the additional insureds. If the additional insureds have other insurance that is applicable to the loss, such other insurance shall be on an excess or contingent basis. The amount of the insurance liability under this insurance policy shall not be reduced by the existence of other insurance. § 11.2 Owner’s Insurance (Paragraphs deleted) § 11.2.1 The Owner shall purchase and maintain property insurance of the types and limits of liability, containing the endorsements, and subject to the terms and conditions, as described in Exhibit B to the Agreement.

If the Owner fails to purchase and maintain the required property insurance, with all of the coverages and in the amounts described in the Agreement or elsewhere in the Contract Documents, the Owner shall inform the Contractor in writing prior to commencement of the Work.

Unless the lapse in coverage arises from an act or omission of the Contractor: (1) the Contractor, upon receipt of notice from the Owner, shall have the right to stop the Work until the lapse in coverage has been cured by the procurement of replacement coverage by either the Owner or the Contractor; and (2) after five (5) business days prior written notice to the Owner, obtain replacement coverage, the cost of which shall be charged to the Owner by an appropriate Change Order. § 11.3 Waivers of Subrogation (Paragraph deleted) § 11.3.1 The Owner and Contractor waive all rights against (1) each other and any of their subcontractors, sub-subcontractors, agents, and employees, each of the other; (2) the Architect and Architect’s consultants; and (3) Separate Contractors, if any, and any of their subcontractors, sub-subcontractors, agents, and employees, for damages caused by fire, or other causes of loss, to the extent of insurance proceeds received for those losses from property insurance required by the Contract or other property insurance applicable to the Project. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the insurer providing the property insurance (including Builder’s Risk insurance) may be subrogated to all of the Owner’s rights of recovery against: (a) any architect or engineer, whether named as an insured or not, for any loss or damage arising out of the performance of professional services in their capacity as such and caused by an error, omission, deficiency or act of the architect or engineer, by any person employed by them or by any others for whose acts they are legally liable, and (b) any manufacturer or supplier of machinery, equipment or other property, whether named as an insured or not, for the cost of making good any loss or damage which said party has agreed to make good under a guarantee or warranty, whether expressed or implied. The Owner or Contractor, as appropriate, shall require similar written waivers in favor of the individuals and entities identified above from the Architect, Architect’s consultants, Separate Contractors, subcontractors, and sub-subcontractors. The policies of insurance purchased and maintained by each person or entity agreeing to waive claims pursuant to this section 11.3.1 shall not prohibit this waiver of subrogation. This waiver of subrogation shall be effective as to a person or entity (1) even though that person or entity would otherwise have a duty of indemnification, contractual or otherwise, (2) even though that person or entity did not pay the insurance premium directly or indirectly, or (3) whether or not the person or entity had an insurable interest in the damaged property. The foregoing waiver of subrogation is applicable regardless of whether property insurance is obtained from private sector insurer or by self-insurance programs. § 11.3.2 If during the Project construction period the Owner insures properties, real or personal or both, at or adjacent to the site by property insurance under policies separate from those insuring the Project, or if after final payment property insurance is to be provided on the completed Project through a policy or policies other than those insuring the Project during the construction period, to the extent permissible by such policies, the Owner waives all rights in accordance with the terms of Section 11.3.1 for damages caused by fire or other causes of loss covered by this separate property insurance. (Paragraphs deleted) § 11.4 Loss of Use, Business Interruption, and Delay in Completion Insurance The Owner, at the Owner’s option, may purchase and maintain insurance that will protect the Owner against loss of use of the Owner’s property, or the inability to conduct normal operations, due to fire or other causes of loss. The Owner waives all rights of action against the Contractor and Architect for loss of use of the Owner’s property, due to fire or other hazards however caused, except to the extent of any deductibles or self-insured retentions as provided in Section B.2.3.1.4 of Exhibit B. § 11.5 Adjustment and Settlement of Insured Loss § 11.5.1 A loss insured under the property insurance required by the Agreement shall be adjusted by the Owner in good faith for the benefit of the insureds, subject to requirements of any applicable mortgagee clause and of Section 11.5.2.

The Contractor shall have five (5) business days from receipt of notice to object to the proposed settlement or allocation of the proceeds. If the Contractor does not object, the Owner shall settle the loss and the Contractor shall be bound by the settlement and allocation. Upon receipt, the Owner shall deposit the insurance proceeds in a separate account and make the appropriate distributions. Thereafter, if no other agreement is made or the Owner does not terminate the Contract for convenience, the Owner and Contractor shall execute a Change Order for reconstruction of the damaged or destroyed Work in the amount allocated for that purpose. If the Contractor timely objects to either the terms of the proposed settlement or the allocation of the proceeds, the Owner may proceed to settle the insured loss, and any dispute between the Owner and Contractor arising out of the settlement or allocation of the proceeds shall be resolved pursuant to Article 15. Pending resolution of any dispute, the Owner may issue a Construction Change Directive for the reconstruction of the damaged or destroyed Work. ARTICLE 12 UNCOVERING AND CORRECTION OF WORK § 12.1 Uncovering of Work (Paragraphs deleted) § 12.1.1 If a portion of the Work is covered contrary to the Owner’s or Architect’s request or to requirements specifically expressed in the Contract Documents, it must, if requested in writing by the Owner or Architect, be uncovered for the Owner’s or Architect’s examination and be replaced at the Contractor’s expense without change in the Contract Time. § 12.1.2 If a portion of the Work has been covered that the Owner, Architect, or any governing authority has not specifically requested to examine prior to its being covered, the Owner, the Architect, or any governing authority may request to see such Work and it shall be uncovered by the Contractor. If such Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment to the Contract Sum and Contract Time as may be appropriate. If such Work is not in accordance with the Contract Documents, the costs of uncovering the Work, and the cost of correction, shall be at the Contractor’s expense. § 12.2 Correction of Work § 12.2.1 Before Substantial Completion The Contractor shall, within twenty-four (24) hours in the event of an emergency threatening imminent harm to person or property or, otherwise, within seven (7) days of receipt of notice from the Owner, remove from the Project site, or commence removal to the extent such removal cannot reasonably be completed within such time, of any Work that the Owner rejects as unsound or improper or in any way fails to meet the requirements of the Contract Documents, discovered before Substantial Completion and whether or not fabricated, installed or completed. Costs of correcting such rejected Work, including additional testing and inspections, the cost of uncovering and replacement, and compensation for the Architect’s services and expenses made necessary thereby, shall be at the Contractor’s expense. If the Contractor fails to timely take such corrective action, the Owner shall have the right to do so. Costs of such corrective action, including additional testing and inspections, the cost of uncovering and replacement, and reasonable compensation for the Architect’s and the Owner’s other consultants’ services and expenses made necessary thereby shall be deducted from payments then or thereafter due the Contractor. If payments then or thereafter due the Contractor are not sufficient to cover such amounts, the Contractor shall pay the difference to the Owner promptly upon demand. § 12.2.2 After Substantial Completion (Paragraphs deleted) § 12.2.2.1 In addition to the Contractor’s obligations under Section 3.5, if, within one year after the date of Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof or after the date for commencement of warranties established under Section 9.9.1, or by terms of any applicable warranty required by the Contract Documents, any of the Work is found to be not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall, within twenty-four (24) hours in the event of an emergency threatening imminent harm to person or property or, otherwise, within seven (7) days of receipt of notice from the Owner, commence correction and thereafter diligently prosecute such correction to completion. Without limitation, the Contractor shall provide all labor, engineering, supervision, equipment, tools, and materials necessary to effect the remedy and shall bear all of the Contractor’s expenses in DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Init. / AIA Document A201 – 2017.

The cost of all work incidental to such remedy, including the removal, replacement, or installation of conforming Work or materials or equipment, and the cost of transporting required items to and from the site, shall be borne solely by the Contractor. Contractor also shall, at no cost to the Owner, perform such tests as Owner may require verifying the corrected or re-performed Work or the repaired, replaced, or modified item of material or equipment is satisfactory. If the Contractor fails to fully and timely correct nonconforming Work as provided herein, the Owner may correct it in accordance with Section 2.5. § 12.2.2.2 The one-year period for correction of Work shall be extended with respect to portions of Work first performed after Substantial Completion by the period of time between Substantial Completion and the actual completion of that portion of the Work. The Contractor’s obligations under Section 12.2 shall survive acceptance of the Work under the Contract and termination of the Contract. § 12.2.2.3 The one-year period for correction of Work shall not be extended by corrective Work performed by the Contractor pursuant to this Section 12.2. (Paragraphs deleted) § 12.2.3 The Contractor shall, within twenty-four (24) hours in the event of an emergency threatening imminent harm to person or property or, otherwise, within seven (7) days of receipt of notice from the Owner, remove from the site, or commence removal to the extent such removal cannot reasonably be completed within such time, portions of the Work that are defective or otherwise not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents and are neither corrected by the Contractor nor accepted by the Owner in writing. § 12.2.4 The Contractor shall bear the cost of correcting destroyed or damaged construction of the Owner or Separate Contractors, whether completed or partially completed, caused by the Contractor’s correction or removal of Work that is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents. § 12.2.5 The remedies expressed herein are cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy available to the Owner under statute or Applicable Laws. Nothing contained in this Section 12.2 shall be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to other obligations the Contractor has under the Contract Documents. Establishment of the one-year period for correction of Work as described in Section 12.2.2 relates only to the specific obligation of the Contractor to correct the Work, and has no relationship to the time within which the obligation to comply with the Contract Documents may be sought to be enforced, nor to the time within which proceedings may be commenced to establish the Contractor’s liability with respect to the Contractor’s obligations other than specifically to correct the Work. § 12.3 Acceptance of Nonconforming Work If the Owner prefers to accept Work that is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Owner may do so instead of requiring its removal and correction, in which case the Guaranteed Maximum Price will be reduced as appropriate and equitable. Such adjustment shall be effected whether or not final payment has been made. ARTICLE 13 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS § 13.1 Governing Law The Contract shall be governed by the law of the place where the Project is located, excluding that jurisdiction’s choice of law rules. § 13.2 Successors and Assigns (Paragraphs deleted) § 13.2.1 The Owner and Contractor respectively bind themselves, their partners, successors, assigns, and legal representatives to covenants, agreements, and obligations contained in the Contract Documents. Except as provided in Section 13.2.2, neither Party shall assign the Contract as a whole without written consent of the other. If either Party attempts to make an assignment without such consent such assignment shall be void and the Party attempting to assign the Contract, or portion thereof, shall nevertheless remain legally responsible for all obligations under the Contract. Further, the Contractor may not assign any monies due to it under the Contract without the prior written consent of the Owner.

The Contractor shall give the Owner and Architect timely notice of when and where tests and inspections are to be made so that the Owner and/or Architect may be present for such procedures. The Owner shall bear costs of tests, inspections, or approvals that do not become requirements until after bids are received or negotiations concluded. The Owner shall directly arrange and pay for tests, inspections, or approvals where building codes or other Applicable Laws so require. § 13.4.2 If the Architect, Owner, or public authorities having jurisdiction determine that portions of the Work require additional testing, inspection, or approval not included under Section 13.4.1, the Architect or Owner will, upon written authorization from the Owner, instruct the Contractor to make arrangements for such additional testing, inspection, or approval, by an entity acceptable to the Owner, and the Contractor shall give timely notice to the Owner and Architect of when and where tests and inspections are to be made so that the Owner and/or Architect may be present for such procedures. Such costs, except as provided in Section 13.4.3, shall be at the Owner’s expense. § 13.4.3 If procedures for testing, inspection, or approval under Sections 13.4.1 and 13.4.2 reveal failure of the portions of the Work, or materials to be incorporated into the Work to comply with requirements established by the Contract Documents, all costs made necessary by such failure, including those of repeated procedures and compensation for the Architect’s services and expenses, shall be at the Contractor’s expense. § 13.4.4 Required certificates and reports of testing, inspection, or approval shall, unless otherwise required by the Contract Documents, be secured by the Contractor and promptly delivered to the Owner and Architect. § 13.4.5 If the Architect is to observe tests, inspections, or approvals required by the Contract Documents, the Architect will do so promptly and, where practicable, at the normal place of testing. § 13.4.6 Tests or inspections conducted pursuant to the Contract Documents shall be made promptly to avoid unreasonable delay in the Work. § 13.5 Interest Payments due and unpaid under the Contract Documents shall bear interest from the date payment is due at the rate established by Applicable Laws. § 13.6 Survival All of the Contractor’s representations, indemnifications, warranties, and guarantees made in, required by, or given in accordance with the Contract Documents, as well as all continuing obligations indicated in the Contract Documents, will survive final payment, completion, and acceptance of the Work or termination or completion of the Contract or termination of the services of Contractor.

The Owner shall in no event be liable to the Contractor for any unabsorbed overhead or unrealized profits with respect to the terminated Work. § 14.4.4 If the Owner terminates the Contract for cause (as distinguished from termination for its convenience) and it shall be determined that the Owner’s termination was unjustified, such termination shall be deemed to have been a termination for the Owner’s convenience under Section 14.4 hereof, and the Contractor’s sole rights, remedy and recourse shall be governed and determined by this Section 14.4. ARTICLE 15 CLAIMS AND DISPUTES § 15.1 Claims § 15.1.1 Definition A "Claim" is a demand or assertion by one of the Parties seeking, as a matter of right, payment of money, a change in the Contract Time, or other relief with respect to the terms of the Contract; provided, however, a request for a Change Order shall not constitute a Claim (and a request for a Change Order shall be governed by the provisions of Article 7 hereof). The term "Claim" also includes other disputes and matters in question between the Owner and Contractor arising out of or relating to the Contract. The responsibility to substantiate Claims shall rest with the Party making the Claim. This Section 15.1.1 does not require the Owner to file a Claim in order to impose liquidated damages in accordance with the Contract Documents. § 15.1.2 Time Limits on Claims The Owner and Contractor shall commence all Claims and causes of action against the other and arising out of or related to the Contract, whether in contract, tort, breach of warranty or otherwise, in accordance with the requirements of the binding dispute resolution method selected in the Agreement and within the period specified by applicable law. § 15.1.3 Notice of Claims (Paragraphs deleted) § 15.1.3.1 Claims by the Contractor, where the condition giving rise to the Claim is first discovered prior to expiration of the period for correction of the Work set forth in Section 12.2.2, shall be initiated by notice to the Owner and to the Initial Decision Maker with a copy sent to the Architect, if the Architect is not serving as the Initial Decision Maker. Unless a shorter period of time is specified elsewhere herein, Claims by the Contractor under this Section 15.1.3.1 shall be initiated within ten (10) business days after occurrence of the event giving rise to such Claim or within ten (10) business days after the Contractor first recognizes or reasonably should have recognized the condition giving rise to the Claim, whichever is later. Denial in whole or part of a COR submitted in accordance with Section 7.5 shall be deemed the occurrence of the event giving rise to a Claim for any adjustment of the Contract Sum or Contract Time sought in the COR but denied in whole or in part. For the avoidance of doubt, the Contractor shall be deemed to waive any Claims for adjustment of the Contract Sum or Contract Time: (a) which the Contractor sought via COR that was denied and as to which the Contractor did not submit a Claim within ten (10) business days thereafter; (b) which the Contractor failed to timely and properly request as provided in Section 7.5; and (c) based on changes in the Work or other events or circumstances for which a Change Order was previously executed. § 15.1.3.2 Claims by either the Owner or Contractor, where the condition giving rise to the Claim is first discovered after expiration of the period for correction of the Work set forth in Section 12.2.2, shall be initiated by notice to the other Party. In such event, no decision by the Initial Decision Maker is required. § 15.1.4 Continuing Contract Performance (Paragraphs deleted) § 15.1.4.1 Pending final resolution of a Claim, except as otherwise agreed in writing or as provided in Section 9.7 and Article 14, the Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of the Contract and the Owner shall continue to make payments of undisputed amounts due in accordance with the Contract Documents.

User Notes: (1281444406) 55 § 15.1.4.2 The Guaranteed Maximum Price and Contract Time shall be adjusted in accordance with the Initial Decision Maker’s decision, subject to the right of either Party to proceed in accordance with this Article 15. The Architect will issue Certificates for Payment in accordance with the decision of the Initial Decision Maker. § 15.1.5 Claims for Additional Cost If the Contractor wishes to make a Claim for an increase in the Guaranteed Maximum Price, notice as provided in Section 15.1.3 shall be given before proceeding to execute the portion of the Work that is the subject of the Claim. Prior notice is not required for Claims relating to an emergency endangering life or property arising under Section 10.4, provided that notice shall be given as soon as is reasonably practicable. The costs to the Contractor of preparing and negotiating PCOs, ROMs, CORs, and Claims shall not be reimbursable under this Contract. § 15.1.6 Claims for Additional Time (Paragraphs deleted) § 15.1.6.1 If the Contractor wishes to make a Claim for an increase in the Contract Time, notice as provided in Section 15.1.3 shall be given. The Contractor’s Claim shall include an estimate of cost and of probable effect of delay on progress of the Work. In the case of a continuing delay, only one Claim is necessary. Further, with Claims for additional time, the Contractor shall submit all of the following, without limitation of other requirements under the Contract: (a) the Contractor’s PCO, ROM and COR per Section 7.5; (b) the approved, as planned construction schedule in accordance with Section 3.10; (c) identification and explanation of the basis for (i) the duration start and finish dates of each impacted activity, (ii) the successor and predecessor events affected in the construction schedule, and (iii) the duration of any lead/lags inserted into the construction schedule and the duration-related activity duration; and (d) a mark-up construction schedule indicating the causes responsible for changes between the as-planned and as-built schedule and establishing the required cause and effect relationships. In the case of an acceleration Claim in connection with the exercise of the Owner’s rights to require the Contractor to implement Extraordinary Measures for which the Contractor is entitled to an increase in the GMP pursuant to Section 3.10.4, the Contractor also shall submit other documentation for typical acceleration consequences, including comparison of anticipated manpower, equipment and material utilization, increased levels of manpower/overtime, and duplicated sets of equipment or materials, indicating the acceleration that occurred. A detailed explanation of how the planned manpower/equipment levels could have achieved the planned schedule and a comparison of the levels actually consumed in performing the work must be included in the Claim. § 15.1.6.2 If adverse weather conditions are the basis for a Claim for additional time, such Claim shall be documented by data substantiating that weather conditions were abnormal for the period of time, could not have been reasonably anticipated, and had an adverse effect on the scheduled construction. Only unusual or severe weather conditions for the time of year will be considered as a potential justification for a delay in the completion of the Work and the Contractor agrees than an extension of time will only be granted for actual days lost due to adverse weather conditions that are in excess of the normal days lost due to inclement for the given period, and then only if the excessive actual days lost due to adverse weather conditions negatively impact the critical path of the Project. No extension will be requested for days of adverse weather conditions occurring after the building or buildings are enclosed, unless the exterior site work remains on the critical path to construction completion. Lost time resultant from the preparation for, during and after a named storm event shall be a basis for time extension. § 15.1.6.3 Claims for increase in the Contract Time shall set forth in detail the circumstances that form the basis for the Claim, the date upon which each cause of delay began to affect the progress of the Work, the date upon which each cause of delay ceased to affect the progress of the Work and the number of days’ increase in the Contract Time claimed as a consequence of each such cause of delay. The Contractor shall provide such supporting documentation as the Owner may require including, where appropriate, a revised construction schedule indicating all the activities affected by the circumstances forming the basis of the Claim. § 15.1.6.4 The Contractor shall not be entitled to a separate increase in the Contract Time for each one of the number of causes of delay which may have concurrent or interrelated effects on the progress of the Work. § 15.1.7 Waiver of Claims for Consequential Damages The Contractor and Owner waive Claims against each other for consequential damages arising out of or relating to this Contract.

This mutual waiver is applicable, without limitation, to all consequential damages due to either Party’s termination in accordance with Article 14. Nothing contained in this Section 15.1.7 shall be deemed to preclude assessment of liquidated damages, when applicable, in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents. Additionally, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that this waiver of claims for consequential damages does not apply to any damages, liabilities, costs or expenses: (i) proximately caused by either Party’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct, (ii) covered by insurance required to be maintained by the Contractor or Owner, or (iii) for which the Contractor has an indemnification obligation under the Contract. § 15.2 Initial Decision (Paragraphs deleted) § 15.2.1 Claims, excluding those where the condition giving rise to the Claim is first discovered after expiration of the period for correction of the Work set forth in Section 12.2.2 or arising under Sections 10.3, 10.4, and 11.5, shall be referred to the Initial Decision Maker for initial decision. The Architect will serve as the Initial Decision Maker, unless otherwise indicated in the Agreement. Except for those Claims excluded by this Section 15.2.1, an initial decision shall be required as a condition precedent to mediation of any Claim. If an initial decision has not been rendered within thirty (30) days after the Claim has been referred to the Initial Decision Maker, the Party asserting the Claim may demand mediation and binding dispute resolution without a decision having been rendered. Unless the Initial Decision Maker and all affected Parties agree, the Initial Decision Maker will not decide disputes between the Contractor and persons or entities other than the Owner. § 15.2.2 The Initial Decision Maker will review Claims and within ten (10) days of the receipt of a Claim take one or more of the following actions: (1) request additional supporting data from the claimant or a response with supporting data from the other Party, (2) reject the Claim in whole or in part, (3) approve the Claim, (4) suggest a compromise, or (5) advise the Parties that the Initial Decision Maker is unable to resolve the Claim if the Initial Decision Maker lacks sufficient information to evaluate the merits of the Claim or if the Initial Decision Maker concludes that, in the Initial Decision Maker’s sole discretion, it would be inappropriate for the Initial Decision Maker to resolve the Claim. § 15.2.3 In evaluating Claims, the Initial Decision Maker may, but shall not be obligated to, consult with or seek information from either Party or from persons with special knowledge or expertise who may assist the Initial Decision Maker in rendering a decision. The Initial Decision Maker may request the Owner to authorize retention of such persons at the Owner’s expense. § 15.2.4 If the Initial Decision Maker requests a Party to provide a response to a Claim or to furnish additional supporting data, such Party shall respond, within ten (10) days after receipt of the request, and shall either (1) provide a response on the requested supporting data, (2) advise the Initial Decision Maker when the response or supporting data will be furnished, or (3) advise the Initial Decision Maker that no supporting data will be furnished. Upon receipt of the response or supporting data, if any, the Initial Decision Maker will either reject or approve the Claim in whole or in part. § 15.2.5 The Initial Decision Maker will render an initial decision approving or rejecting the Claim, or indicating that the Initial Decision Maker is unable to resolve the Claim. This initial decision shall (1) be in writing; (2) state the reasons therefor; and (3) notify the Parties and the Architect, if the Architect is not serving as the Initial Decision Maker, of any change in the Guaranteed Maximum Price or Contract Time or both. The initial decision shall be final and binding on the Parties but subject to mediation and, if the Parties fail to resolve their dispute through mediation, to binding dispute resolution. § 15.2.6 Either Party may file for mediation of an initial decision at any time. § 15.2.6.1 Intentionally deleted.

(Paragraph deleted) § 15.3.2 The Parties shall endeavor to resolve their Claims by mediation which, unless the Parties mutually agree otherwise, shall be administered by a Florida Circuit Certified Civil Mediator who is a Florida licensed attorney with at least ten (10) years’ experience and who is mutually acceptable to both the Owner and the Contractor. In the event that the Parties fail to agree in writing on a mediator within fifteen (15) days after a request for mediation is made pursuant to this Section, then the mediation shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Construction Industry Mediation Procedures in effect on the date of the Agreement. A request for mediation shall be made in writing, delivered to the other Party to the Contract, and filed with the person or entity administering the mediation. The request may be made concurrently with the filing of binding dispute resolution proceedings but, in such event, mediation shall proceed in advance of binding dispute resolution proceedings, which shall be stayed pending mediation for a period of sixty (60) days from the date of filing, unless stayed for a longer period by agreement of the Parties or court order.

Sustainability means different things to different people. Some people might think of recycling, and others might think of solar panels or growing their own organic food. What is sustainability, really? The United Nations defined the word sustainability in 1987 as the ability to, “meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” In essence, sustainability is about helping the people of today and people of tomorrow meet their needs. Sustainable communities work with and within nature. They use resources that can be renewed, and attempt to reduce waste, reuse materials, and find ways to safely return resources back to the environment. Sustainable communities also make plans and decisions that balance the three parts of a triple bottom line: economic prosperity, environmental quality, and human quality of life. If we think about sustainability in terms of a triple bottom line, we realize that it is not an unfamiliar concept. For most of our history, humans have lived in a way that had minimal impact on the world’s natural resources. However, over the course of the last century, we have caused large-scale declines in the quality of water, air, and soil, and devastated animal and plant species worldwide. Since communities depend on natural resources to maintain a prosperous economy and good quality of life, working hard to preserve the integrity of the environment helps ensure our communities’ continued prosperity. Why Sustainability? Recent human actions such as unchecked pollution and mass deforestation have negatively impacted the climate and degraded natural ecosystems causing high rates of species extinction, global temperature increase, rising seas, and dying coral reefs. Scientists expect Americans to experience more severe heat waves, droughts, flooding, wildfires, and hurricanes in the future if we continue with current trends in fossil fuel usage. Studies show that these impacts will afflict our economy, strain our natural resources, and worsen inequalities for many Americans. These are only a fraction of the negative impacts stemming from climate change, but they speak to the urgency of countering its effects. Welcome to Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 A community plan for sustainability DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Welcome to Clearwater Greenprint ( Page 8 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 Despite all this, we have only recently begun to take action. Thankfully, local governments and community residents can contribute to a solution to the climate change problem by building low-carbon communities which are not dependent on carbon intensive resources. Cities use 75% of the world’s energy and produce 80% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. Though this fact may not seem like a positive thing at first, it means that the collective actions of cities, including the city of Clearwater, will result in an appreciable reduction in the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. The city of Clearwater has an opportunity to set an example for other cities and have a positive impact on the world. Sustainability isn’t just about the planet, it’s about people. Sustainable communities are stronger communities. In addition to addressing climate change, being a sustainable community has other important benefits such as: 1. Saving Money The city of Clearwater spent over seven million dollars in 2018 on energy to power buildings and streetlights. Many of the measures in Greenprint 2.0 “pay for themselves” quickly by reducing direct costs, such as fuel or energy used, as well as indirect costs such as maintenance. For instance, a “right-sized” vehicle fleet is less expensive to purchase and fuel, while also being less costly to maintain. Encouraging energy efficiency, public transit use, building improvements, and other measures will also result in lower energy and water bills for residents and employers. The economy benefits by reducing the amount of money each person spends on energy and water. This money can instead be used at local businesses, supporting the city of Clearwater’s economy. Acting now will also save on runaway costs on climate change—especially in the long term. These costs range from infrastructure damage in extreme storms and pest control, to industry losses, particularly for industries that depend on environmental conditions, such as tourism. 2. Creating Jobs New green sectors such as sustainable tourism, green construction, and urban agriculture provide additional job opportunities in growing economic sectors. These activities can spur business and job growth through the design, manufacturing, and installation of energy efficient technologies, presenting a special opportunity to reinvest in the local economy and generate green jobs. For example, a 2019 Environmental Entrepreneurs’ report estimated that the solar industry employed nearly 335,000 workers. Solar professions within the United States have increased 167% over the past decade according to the National Solar Jobs Census and Florida leads the nation for the number of jobs added. 3. Improving Public Health Our health improves with cleaner air and water and more time spent outside engaging in physical activities such as walking and biking. Sustainable changes, including using different modes of transportation, helps clean the air and improve public health by reducing DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Welcome to Clearwater Greenprint ( Page 9 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 vehicle emissions. Improvements that promote alternative transportation also give Clearwater residents more options for getting around. When combined with other activities like redevelopment of underutilized properties, these improvements create more vibrant, livable community with shorter commute times and more opportunities for active transport. Sustainable changes create equitable access to amenities for residents living in low-income areas across the country. Many of these low-income areas lack the trees and greenery that create shade and improve the appearance of more affluent neighborhoods. Residents of these low-income areas also have a higher likelihood of living in or near areas covered in dark surfaces. The overabundance of blacktop causes residents to suffer more from summer heat, leading to higher health costs. What is Resilience? Community resilience is defined as, “a measure of the sustained ability of a community to utilize available resources to respond to, withstand, and recover from adverse situations.” Therefore, a resilient community is one that can face a challenge and still retain its essential function. “Sustainability” and “resilience” are qualities of a community that complement each other. While sustainability focuses on having a brighter future, resilience is all about adapting to the different stressors we face now. Whether it’s a natural disaster, sea-level rise or a drastic change in economy, a resilient community is one that can anticipate and positively adapt to changing conditions. Why Resilience? 1. Creating Proactive Communities Resilience transforms reactive communities into proactive communities. Rather than solely developing plans to deal with the aftermath or a natural disaster or economic downturn, resilient communities develop measures to prevent massive disruptions from harming its people and systems. While Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 focuses on resilience through the lens of climate adaptation, resilience is a practice that can be implemented in all aspects of an organization. 2. Promoting Energy Stability The farther energy travels from its source, the more energy that is wasted. Most electrical power in Clearwater is currently supplied by Duke Energy. The closest energy source for Clearwater is a fossil fuel power plant approximately 15 miles away near Holiday. This creates an opportunity to improve energy efficiency by generating more energy locally. Renewable energy can be generated in many ways including through the power of the sun, wind, and water. Installing solar panels on homes and businesses reduces energy waste since energy generated does not need to travel far from its source before it is used. Renewable energy is also a sustainable solution to the problem of meeting energy needs in times when energy is in high demand or unavailable from far away powerplants. This means DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Welcome to Clearwater Greenprint ( Page 10 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 that on hot summer days, and in the aftermath of major storms, renewable energy can keep lights on and air conditioning running within the homes, businesses, and municipal facilities of Clearwater. 3. Ensuring Food Security Like energy, transportation of food over long distances results in waste and negative environmental impacts. Currently, nearly all of Clearwater’s food is imported from elsewhere. The city’s resiliency can be improved by producing more food locally to reduce inefficiencies caused by transporting food over long distances. Local food production also protects against service disruptions caused by a variety of factors, including the effects of climate change, economic change and political conflict. 4. Establishing Economic Security The Fourth National Climate Assessment estimates the costs of climate change in the United States could total more than $2 trillion a year by the end of this century. Much of this cost results from the damage intense storms and flooding are expected to inflict on infrastructure and private property. Adopting resilient solutions saves cities a significant amount of money on future energy, water, and infrastructure needs. This is due to the increased ability of these systems to adapt or withstand future climate stressors, which are events, trends or conditions that result from climate change that can magnify hazards. Resilient communities face fewer system failures and costly repairs. Innovative cooling technologies and adaptions further cut energy bills while the benefits these innovations bring to health and livability are expected to compound over time. While cities drive the national economy, small businesses drive the local economy. Small businesses make up 99.7% of all US employers. Small businesses are threatened by the effects of climate change and the increasing number of disaster events. Small firms are especially challenged by disaster events, as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce notes that 43% of small businesses do not recover from natural disasters. Let’s Learn from Each Other The complex problems of climate change affect each municipality differently. Therefore, detailed insights about current conditions and prospective solutions from citizens and stakeholders is critical in the process of identifying and implementing effective measures for adaptation and mitigation. Clearwater can provide invaluable guidance on the concrete impacts of proposed remedies—parsing out measures that will provide the greatest benefit from those that can only offer marginal relief.

Clearwater Greenprint was adopted in 2011 through the collaboration of residents, businesses, and the City. Clearwater Greenprint creates a vision to make Clearwater a vibrant community for everyone who lives here now and for generations to come. Figure 2.2.- Clearwater Greenprint timeline graphic Reducing the city’s greenhouse gas emissions was determined to be the number one goal of Clearwater Greenprint. Why? Because The current over-abundance of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere caused by human activity is a major contributor to climate change and closely related to other environmental concerns within the city of Clearwater. Large amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are known to worsen sea-level rise, drought, flooding and so on. It is critical that we reduce our greenhouse gas emissions to ensure that Clearwater remains a great place to live, work and visit. Measuring Our Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHGs) In addition to being caused by human activities, climate change also occurs because of the earth’s natural cycles. For example, the amount of the best-known greenhouse gas, Carbon Dioxide (CO2), in the northern hemisphere changes from one season to the next as plants undergo cycles of growth. Despite this, scientists have observed an enduring upward trend in greenhouse gases that are attributed solely to ongoing human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels, commercial animal agriculture, and land development. In fact, about half of all carbon dioxide emitted between 1750 and 2010 occurred in the last 40 years. Therefore, even though the natural greenhouse effect is needed to keep the earth warm, the consensus among publishing climate scientists (97% in agreement according to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) is that the accelerated rate at which humans are producing GHGs causes global warming and climate change. DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Welcome to Clearwater Greenprint ( Page 12 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 The 2014 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fifth Assessment Report (AR5), was written by a panel of hundreds of climate experts and scientists and was approved by a team of external reviewers. The report states unambiguously that anthropogenic (human- made) GHG emissions are causing global climate change. For this reason, the city of Clearwater is joining an increasing number of local governments committed to addressing climate change at the local level. The city of Clearwater recognizes the risk climate change poses to its residents and business owners. The city is actively acting to reduce the GHG emissions, or “carbon footprint”, of both its government operations and the community at-large through innovative programs laid out in Clearwater Greenprint. Furthermore, it is recognized that Clearwater needs to address existing climate risks, such as sea level rise and temperature increase, and adapt its systems and infrastructure to new conditions. With more than 80% of Americans living in urban areas, cities play a powerful role in addressing climate change. Adjusting the design of cities—how we use our land, how we design our buildings, how we get around—greatly impacts the amount of energy we use and the volume of GHG emissions we produce. Cities such as Clearwater can demonstrate that it is possible to dramatically reduce GHG emissions while creating vibrant and prosperous places to live by making appropriate and manageable adjustments. The city of Clearwater first began monitoring its GHG emissions in 2007. It conducted a follow-up study in 2018. The following subsections summarize the results of both studies and compare city emissions levels over the span of approximately 10 years. 2007 GHG Emission Levels The city took its first step in improving its carbon footprint in 2011 by calculating its community- wide GHG emissions. The study was based off of the city’s 2007 GHG levels. In 2007, city-wide greenhouse gas emissions totaled 1,295,619 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2e). Emissions from energy consumption and transportation fuels were the largest contributors to the city-wide greenhouse gas inventory (65% and 30%, respectively). Solid waste contributed 5% while the city’s water and waste-water operations accounted for 0.1% of emissions. The average GHG emissions per capita was 11.72 MTCO2e based on the city's 2007 population of 110,469. Based on these 2007 levels, GHG emissions were forecasted for 2035. It was projected that if city continued with “business as usual”, city-wide emissions would grow by 4% to 1,347,443 MTCO2e by 2035.

Reduce city-wide greenhouse gas emissions 10% below 2007 levels by the year 2020 2. Reduce city-wide greenhouse gas emissions 25% below 2007 levels by the year 2035 The original Clearwater Greenprint was created to reach these emission reduction goals. The plan included real strategies that the city, businesses and local residents could bring into their daily lives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. These strategies were selected to help create a sustainable community by making buildings and transportation systems more energy-efficient, maintaining a healthy local economy, creating “green” jobs, reducing waste, and encouraging shoppers and restaurants to buy locally grown foods. Since 2011, the city has made significant progress towards its initial sustainability goals. Many of the original Clearwater Greenprint Plan strategies have been completed or are in progress. A Sustainability Coordinator was hired to facilitate fulfillment of the Greenprint strategies and ensure that the city’s sustainability goals are reached. In 2021, Clearwater Mayor Frank Hibbard signed on as a Climate Mayor. The Climate Mayors group is a network of U.S. mayors who work together to address climate change by creating meaningful actions in their own communities. 2018 GHG Emission Levels A second GHG inventory was conducted in 2019 using 2018 data to track the City's progress toward its 2020 climate goals. According to the inventory, the community-wide GHG emissions for 2018 were 1,128,690 MTCO2e, 12.9% below its 2007 levels. Together, we achieved our first goal! Like 2007, emissions from energy use and transportation fuels continued to be the largest contributors to the city-wide GHG inventory. However, emissions from energy consumption decreased from 65% in 2007 to 59% in 2018, while emissions from transportation fuels increased from 30% to 38%. This is thought to be a result of Duke Energy increasing its reliance upon renewable energy and natural gas which decreased emissions for the city of Figure 2.4.

Solid waste emissions were reduced from 5% of the 2007 inventory to 3.3% of the 2018 inventory. The city’s waste-water operations continued to have a marginal effect on the city’s total emissions, reducing from 0.13% of the 2007 inventory to 0.12% of the 2018 inventory. Where Are We Going? Based on the city's population of 116,478 in 2018, average GHG emissions per person were 9.69 MTCO2e. Based on the 2018 levels, Clearwater's community-wide emissions were forecasted for the next three decades. Figure 2.3.- Clearwater Business as Usual / Duke Renewable Energy & Carbon Neutral Goals Not Included; Projected CO2e Values Under this "business as usual" scenario, in which Clearwater does not make or experience any major changes to its emissions, the community's total greenhouse gas emissions would stand at nearly 1.1 million MTCO2e by 2035, increasing to over 1.2 million MTCO2e by 2050. This is largely due to the increased number of miles traveled by automobile per person. However, in 2019 Duke Energy announced its goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2050. To achieve carbon neutrality, the utility company will shift its electricity energy sources away from coal and towards lower-carbon energy solutions. If this goal was to be achieved by Duke Energy, Clearwater's greenhouse gas emissions would fall to roughly 972,000 MTCO2e DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Welcome to Clearwater Greenprint ( Page 15 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 in 2035 and further to 823,000 MTCO2e in 2050. This decrease would occur even if the city did not pursue further greenhouse gas reduction measures of its own. Figure 2.4.- Clearwater Business as Usual / Duke Renewable Energy & Carbon Neutral Goals Included; Projected CO2e Values with Reductions Applied In December of 2015, 197 countries, including the United States signed onto the historic Paris Climate Agreement. The overarching goal of this international climate accord is to limit global warming to well below 2° Celsius compared to pre-industrial levels. Though the United States temporarily withdrew from the agreement in 2020, the nation rejoined in 2021. In the years since the announcement to withdraw from the accord, local implementation of the Paris Climate Agreement has been a focus for local governments nationwide—including the city of Clearwater. The decision to rejoin the accord bolsters the city’s ongoing GHG reduction efforts and opens the door to opportunities for much-needed federal aid. With new, more ambitious GHG reduction goals, Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 is anticipated to reduce community-wide greenhouse gas emissions to under 260,000 MTCO2e by 2050. Envision Our Future Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 has two overarching Goals: • Reduce the city’s GHG emissions 25% below 2007 levels by 2035 and; • Reduce the city’s GHG emissions 80% below 2007 emission levels by 2050 DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Welcome to Clearwater Greenprint ( Page 16 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 And also seeks to accomplish the following Objectives: • Transform Clearwater into a community where people walk, bike, take transit, or carpool for most trips in a safe, accessible and affordable transportation network. • Make Clearwater a leader in clean and local renewable energy opportunities. • Transform our buildings into high-performing places to live, work, learn and play. • Inspire community action and ensure environmental justice and equity as we transition to a lower carbon, more sustainable community. • Create a thriving urban agriculture community in order to increase the local knowledge and abundance of healthy, sustainable food. • Become a leader in sustainable, smart transportation through innovative partnerships, policies, programs and technology. • Understand potential climate-related risks and mitigate these risks while preparing our community to chronic and extreme weather events. The following lists the targets Clearwater Greenprint aims for in order to maintain a competitive, vibrant, and green Clearwater for future generations, while improving the quality of life for those who live here today. Often, world problems can seem so daunting. But positive change is possible. And maybe it’s not from one person doing a big thing but from many people doing small things. Chinese philosopher, Lao Tzu, stated “a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”. Greenprint invites you to find your “single step” and run with it. We are each essential to creating a sustainable city. Together, we can go far.

Document Structure The diagram shown below outlines the document structure of Clearwater Greenprint 2.0. Some of the components of the plan, namely goals and targets have already been defined. Core Topics and Strategies are defined in the sections below. Figure 3.5.- Document hierarchy diagram Core Topics Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 contains the same eight topics found in the original Clearwater Greenprint plan. These eight topics were identified as areas in which the city can achieve greenhouse gas reductions and cost savings: • Education and Awareness, • Green Energy & Buildings, • Transportation, • Livability, • Water Conservation, • Waste Reduction, • Local Food, and • Green Economy.

In this document, strategies provide the foundation for addressing sustainability issues over a 30-year planning period and beyond. The strategies focus on actions that can be implemented at the local level over the span of 0-5 years (short-term), 6-10 years (medium-term) and 11-30 years (long-term). The Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 is intended to be a framework for specific action with built-in flexibility for timing and emphasis. Each Strategy corresponds to a Core Topic. For example, the “Community Education” Strategy is presented under the “Education and Awareness” Core Topic. Green Glossary Each of us has a different level of understanding and exposure when it comes to the environment, sustainability, and government functions. In order to make Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 accessible to everyone, a Green Glossary is provided at the beginning of the document. Words in green can be found there with an explanation. Mitigation and Adaptation The city of Clearwater is already experiencing effects of climate change. The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season was the busiest ever recorded with 31 tropical cyclones. The same year, the state of Florida experienced record-breaking temperatures for six months of the same year. Water levels in Tampa Bay have also increased nearly eight inches over the last 60 years. Reducing community GHG emissions is climate mitigation, meaning it will reduce the negative impacts of climate change in the future. Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 also considers climate adaptation, the need to address the climate hazards that Clearwater already experiences in order to make the city resilient. Climate adaptation is a form of risk management. Current hazards, like increased heat, sea levels and precipitation levels, are magnified by climate change and the city needs to plan accordingly. As such, Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 proposes climate change mitigation strategies that support adaptation and avoid those that may contribute to anticipated climate change impacts. Equity and Inclusion Equity and inclusion components are interwoven throughout this document. Low-income populations, communities of color, people with disabilities, elders, refugees, immigrants, and other frontline communities often bear the brunt of climate impacts. Even worse, these communities often go without the necessary infrastructure and support systems to manage climate impacts and frequently do not receive any of the benefits of a clean and sustainable future. Inequity correlates with greater vulnerability to physical challenges, making many in Clearwater disproportionately at risk from the impacts of natural disasters and climate DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Welcome to Clearwater Greenprint ( Page 21 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 change. Creating a resilient community entails addressing the social inequities that cause disparities in health outcomes, income, educational attainment, and more. Emissions Reduction Potential Calculating expected GHG emissions reductions for each mitigation strategy requires making assumptions about degree of implementation, technology, and individual behavioral changes several years into the future. Since the desired GHG emissions reductions have yet to occur, other measurable factors are used to predict their outcomes. The strategies discussed in this report are the predictive factors, and the symbols shown below represent their respective impacts on GHG reductions and Target Timeline items. The symbols distinguish between strategies with low potential impact, medium potential impact, and high potential impact on the Clearwater’s GHG reduction goals. Strategies with an unknown impact are assigned their own symbol as well. This “unknown potential impact” symbol is used in cases where is difficult to gauge how certain tactics, like education and the localization of resources, will be embraced and acted upon. Low Potential Impact Medium Potential Impact High Potential Impact Unknown/Undefined Potential Impact Strategy Status Indicators Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 includes a combination of existing policies and programs as well as new ideas based on best practices locally and nationwide. The document notes whether a Strategy is currently ongoing, in-progress or not yet started. There are a few Strategies from the first Clearwater Greenprint plan that are no longer goals. These strategies will be listed in Appendix IV alongside an explanation as to why they are no longer included in the city’s plan. Learn More!

Raising community awareness with compelling and useful information about the importance of sustainability is vital. In addition to understanding the benefits of sustainability on Clearwater’s environment, it is important to demonstrate that sustainability will result in improved human health and happiness, economic advancement, and a greater sense of community overall. To achieve this awareness, the city will create and provide information to educate and involve Clearwater citizens in green best practices and programs. The city will incorporate Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 strategies and initiatives into its ongoing communications activities, creating opportunities to encourage responsibility and foster participation in making Clearwater a sustainable community. Opportunities for education and awareness can be realized by creating venues for different groups to work together. These include neighborhood associations, organizations, schools, businesses, utilities, and government agencies.

Various departments, like the Public Utilities and Solid Waste/Recycling departments, have programs to educate students about resource conservation. The city will further this effort by coordinating with the Pinellas County School Board to create a School Sustainability Committee. 5.5.- Municipal Staff Education A. Organize ongoing educational workshops and presentations to keep staff and elected officials up to date on sustainability initiatives and opportunities. B. Integrate sustainable practices into daily operations and serve as ambassadors and educators about city sustainability programs and projects in daily interactions with the public. The city will organize educational workshops and presentations to keep decisionmakers up to date on sustainability initiatives and opportunities as well as to keep City Council members connected to the Greenprint 2.0 goals, strategies, and initiatives. Designated city staff will pursue ongoing education and will maintain certifications pertaining to green project design. In addition, staff will integrate sustainable practices into daily operations while serving as ambassadors and educators for city sustainability programs and projects through their interaction with the public. Clearwater staff will also be encouraged to engage personally with the city’s sustainability efforts. Specifically, they will be encouraged to use fewer single-use plastics through distribution of reusable water bottles to all employees, and review Clearwater’s commitment to the environment during new employee orientation. 5.6.- Continuous Reporting A. Continuously measure, evaluate, and address both mitigation and adaptation progress in accordance with ICLEI Local Governments for Sustainability, USA Five Milestones for Climate Mitigation and Adaptation Sustainability is an ongoing process. Communities must celebrate their successes while continuing to pursue further emission reductions and resilience improvements. While Clearwater has already begun to reduce GHG emissions and climate risk through a variety of actions, it must continuously measure, evaluate, and address both mitigation and adaptation progress. Thankfully, two approaches to achieve this ongoing work have been DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Education and Awareness ( Page 29 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 developed by the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI). These are known as the Five Milestones for Climate Mitigation and Adaptation. Figure 1 Five Milestones for Climate Mitigation Figure 2 Five Milestones for Climate Adaptation Furthermore, tracking the success of existing and future green initiatives is a vitally important component of Clearwater Greenprint. To lead by example, the city will continue to highlight its green initiatives and report the associated benefits. Environmental, economic, and social metrics will be collected and reported. The benefits, costs, and lessons learned of the various efforts will be shared with the Clearwater community as well as other local governments through the Sustainability & Resilience website. Furthermore, the city will commit to conducting a GHG inventory every two years to assess progress. 5.7.- Resilience Planning and Outreach A. Form a Resilience Committee comprised of city staff and community partners. B. Initiate a vulnerability assessment throughout the Clearwater area to identify the factors most at risk to climate change stressors. C. Formulate a Climate Action Plan to address each of the vulnerabilities identified and further direct the city’s resilience work.

According to the Fourth National Climate Assessment, climate adaptation has five general stages: 1. Awareness, 2. Assessment, 3. Planning, 4. Implementation, and 5. Monitoring and Evaluation. The city will begin with Stage 1 and form a Resilience Committee to increase resilience planning and awareness throughout Clearwater. The committee will be comprised of city staff and community partners, such as teachers, neighborhood leaders, artists, and financial and insurance industry representatives who can explain financial risks. The committee will be responsible for creating an educational outreach and communications program to raise awareness of climate change risks and emergency preparedness in our residents and business owners. The Resilience Committee will also be responsible for initiating vulnerability assessments throughout the Clearwater area to identify the factors most at risk to climate change stressors. From these assessments, a Climate Action Plan will be pursued to address these vulnerabilities and further direct the city’s resilience work. This plan could be included as a section in the next Clearwater Greenprint edition.

Today, the effects of conventional energy sources on our global and local environments is better understood. Reducing the amount of energy used through efficiency improvements to existing buildings and the development of new buildings to high-performance standards, coupled with shifting to renewable energy sources, is now recognized as one of the most important actions needed to create a more sustainable community and future. Electricity continues to be the biggest contributor to our community-wide GHG emissions, with most of that electricity being used for the lighting, heating and cooling of buildings. Clearwater purchases all electricity from Duke Energy, a private utility company. As of 2017, Duke Energy relied on fossil fuels (i.e., coal and natural gas) to generate 61.7% of the electricity it produced. Nuclear energy accounted for 33.7% of the remaining electricity, while wind and solar accounted for 3.9%. Making a positive impact on the city’s energy use is a community effort and will require the participation of residents, businesses, and institutions alike. Each can reduce energy use by implementing such measures as attic insulation, duct leak repair, replacing incandescent light bulbs with LED light bulbs and upgrading air conditioning units, windows, and appliances to more efficient ones. In addition to reducing the amount of energy used, it is also important to find opportunities for renewable energy. Without action, the community will continue to rely on fossil fuels, leading to significant increases in energy costs and GHG emissions over the next 25 years. With Clearwater being a mostly developed city, the potential for renewable energy expansion will rely on the installation of smaller systems distributed across the city as opposed to large-scale centralized plants.

Partner with public and private organizations to establish an energy finance program. Many properties in Clearwater can reduce energy use significantly through minor improvements, such as adding insulation, high-efficiency appliances (e.g., water heater) and high-efficiency lighting. Properties can also generate a percentage of their electricity use through installation of renewable energy systems. This includes solar and geothermal systems which run on thermal energy found below the earth’s surface. While basic energy efficiency improvements are the most economical way to reduce energy use, property owners may be discouraged by up-front investment costs. The city will partner with public and private organizations to establish an energy finance program that provides commercial property owners with long-term, low-interest loans for energy improvements. The program would target older, inefficient commercial and industrial buildings and prioritize retrofits that result in cost savings that exceed, or at least offset, the original investment. Loan payments will be assessed to the property tax bill (e.g., Property Assessed Clean Energy) so that the loan is assigned to the property instead of the property owner. 6.2.- Resource Conservation Program A. Develop and implement a program the performs comprehensive energy evaluations, recommends conservation practices and upgrades, provides basic information on financing options, and measures the environmental and economic benefits after implementation. Commercial and industrial properties are responsible for more than half of the electricity use in the city. With the help of private companies and educational organizations, the city will develop and implement a program that performs comprehensive energy evaluations, recommends conservation practices and upgrades, provides basic information on financing options, and tracks the environmental and economic benefits after implementation. Program DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Green Energy and Building ( Page 37 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 partners, such as local vendors and utilities, could offer discounted products to incentivize improvements that increase resource conservation. 6.3.- Incentives for Upgrades A. Implement a “feebate” program. Major renovations on commercial buildings in Clearwater provide a great opportunity to improve existing buildings with energy efficiency improvements. To encourage both improvements on existing buildings and building preservation, the city will implement a “feebate” program, a self-financing system of fees and rebates that would reward developers that renovate buildings to a nationally recognized high-performance standard using fees charged to developers that do not. 6.4.- Performance Standards A. Encourage and assist developers in incorporating green building practices and standards into their design, construction, maintenance and operations plans. B. Encourage the use of national building performance standards . During redevelopment projects, the city will work with and encourage developers to incorporate green building practices and standards into their design, construction, and maintenance and operation plans. For example, a builder could construct solar-ready homes to facilitate installation of solar panels by the property owner. The city will encourage the use of national building performance standards, such as Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), Florida Green Building Coalition and Energy Star.

Continue offering programs by Clearwater Gas System to increase the number of residents and businesses using natural gas to power appliances in place of alternatives that produce more emissions upon combustion. Natural gas generally emits less CO2 during combustion than coal, gasoline, and propane. Lower CO2 emissions and widespread availability makes natural gas comparatively less environmentally harmful, and therefore, a preferable substitute where there isn’t sufficient infrastructure to support emission-free energy generation and distribution. Clearwater Gas System launched several programs to increase the number of residents and businesses that use natural gas to power appliances (e.g., water heaters and ranges). Clearwater Gas System will continue to offer these programs to provide natural gas as an alternative to standard electricity. It is worth noting that natural gas is itself a GHG and still produces CO2 upon combustion. Consequently, campaigns promoting use of natural gas will be paired with educational materials promoting energy efficiency and conservation. 6.6.- Local Power Generation A. Request proposals from private companies to design, build, install and operate small-scale energy generation facilities that can utilize available resources to generate electricity and/or heat. B. Set municipal renewable energy targets COBENEFITS On average, Clearwater receives 361 days of sunshine each year. That sunshine can be captured and used to generate energy through installation of photovoltaic (solar) systems. The city also has the potential to generate energy from a variety of local sources, including biogas from wastewater treatment facilities and biomass (i.e., yard and food waste). The city will request proposals from private companies to design, build, install and operate small- scale energy technologies that can utilize available resources to generate electricity and/or heat energy. The most viable technologies will generate energy at a competitive rate for the city while also reducing other sources of GHG such as those from solid waste and biogas.

Create a website that allows the Clearwater community to submit property information and view addresses where renewable energy systems have been installed. COBENEFITS There is ample space for installing renewable energy systems (e.g., photovoltaic systems and geothermal) on already existing residential, commercial, industrial and city properties. The city will prepare a marketing and outreach campaign to challenge property owners to install renewable energy technologies. As part of the challenge, the city will strive to meet the goal by purchasing and installing renewable energy systems that are economically viable and that have the quickest return on investment. To assist residential, commercial, and industrial property owners in meeting the challenge, the city will support code changes that remove obstacles to installing renewable energy systems and provide information to assist the consumer in purchasing renewable energy equipment. Information may include local, state, and federal incentives, local contractors, economic and environmental benefits of the technology, potential ways to finance the systems and a website that allows the Clearwater community to view and post where installations have been made.

Investigate financing mechanisms for expanding renewable energy generation. B. Launch a solar co-op program in which residents can coordinate bulk purchase of PV systems for reduced price. Aside from energy finance programs (Green Energy & Buildings Strategy #1), there are other public and private financing tools that can be used to lower up-front costs of renewable energy systems for property owners. The city will investigate various financing mechanisms for expanding renewable energy generation and share its findings with the community at large. Some financing mechanisms include clean renewable energy bonds, power purchase agreements, net metering, and bulk purchasing of renewable energy. The United States Internal Revenue Service administers the Clean Renewable Energy Bond program which provides funding to public organizations for renewable energy projects. Power Purchase Agreements are agreements between power producers and customers in this case, for the purchase of renewable energy. Net metering is a system in which solar panels or other renewable energy generators are connected to a public utility power grid and surplus power is transferred onto the grid allowing customers to offset the cost of power drawn from the utility. In 2020, the city enrolled in Duke Energy’s Clean Energy Connection program. The program will enable the city to receive 40% (11,284 kW) of its annual municipal electricity consumption from Duke’s solar systems starting in 2022. The city also partnered with Solar United Neighbors (SUN), a non-profit that enables residential groups to purchase photovoltaic systems at lower prices. By participating in the SUN Greater St. Pete Solar Co-op program, interested Clearwater residents joined with other Pinellas County residents to organize and purchase photovoltaic systems in bulk. This enables each household to receive the system at a significant reduction in price. The city will continue partnering with SUN to enable future solar co-ops across Clearwater. Another option that is available to residents is the Solar and Energy Loan Fund (SELF). SELF is a nonprofit organization that provides loans, project management and contractor vetting for home improvement options that improve energy efficiency, water conservation and storm preparedness. The organization prioritizes low- and moderate-income neighborhoods to achieve positive environmental impacts while reducing the costs of home ownership. The city will work to publicize the availability of SELF programs at events and in its publications.

Request conversion of all Duke Energy-owned electric streetlights to LED. Compared to conventional lighting, light emitting diode (LED) lighting can reduce energy use by 50% and requires less maintenance. Since 2015, the city has converted over 11 thousand streetlights to LED bulbs. All traffic signals, including pedestrian signals, now use LED lighting as well. With support from local governments such as Pinellas County and St. Petersburg, Clearwater will approach Duke to request conversion of the electric utility’s streetlights to LED lighting for lights that have yet to be converted. 6.10.- Municipal Energy Management Program & Policy A. Partner with a third-party company to create an energy savings program including staff training and web-based energy consumption tracking, and benchmarking for municipal buildings. B. Develop a formal energy management policy for city buildings and operations. Behavior change can go a long way when it comes to saving energy. The city will work with a third-party company to create an energy savings program for its facilities. This program will include staff training, web-based energy tracking of individual buildings and energy benchmarking. From this program, the city will develop a formal energy management policy for city buildings and operations with the intent to reduce electricity intensity (kilowatt-hours per square foot) an additional 10% below our 2019 levels by 2025. The policy will set reduction targets and dates, standardize operation practices (e.g., thermostat set points), establish energy benchmarking protocol and specify acceptable and prohibited equipment use and purchases. Best practices and results will be shared with the business community to expand the energy efficiency practices city-wide.

Establish a re-commissioning plan to inspect, test, and make proper adjustments at regularly scheduled intervals to optimize the performance of its buildings and equipment. B. Create an LED lightbulb conversion program for city buildings. C. Train key staff that do not have the appropriate skills to test the equipment. D. Identify any environmentally harmful refrigerants in its operations and phase them out as part of its re-commissioning process (see Green Energy and Buildings Strategy #11) COBENEFITS The city has made investments in energy efficiency upgrades of its buildings and has been able to save hundreds of thousands of dollars in energy and operational costs. Through these upgrades, the city is expected to continue saving money, with an expectation that these upgrades could create millions of dollars in savings over the next six years. However, the full energy savings will not be achieved without ongoing maintenance of the equipment. The city will establish a re-commissioning plan to inspect, test and make proper adjustments at regularly scheduled intervals to optimize the performance of its buildings and equipment. An LED light bulb conversion program will be created for city buildings in order to strategically change out energy-wasting light bulbs and quantify the resulting energy savings on a building-by-building basis. Where necessary, the city will provide training to key staff that currently do not have the appropriate skills to test the equipment. In addition, certain chilling appliances have a high impact on the climate due to the refrigerants they use. These refrigerants are powerful GHGs called hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). HFCs are short-lived pollutants, but they have a heat-trapping impact on global warming that’s thousands of times more powerful than that of carbon dioxide. Appliances such as chillers, refrigerators, freezers, ice makers, dehumidifiers and air conditioners likely contain HFCs. Unfortunately, as the world gets hotter, demand for air conditioning increases. In fact, by 2050, Florida is projected to experience some of the highest frequencies of extreme heat in the nation. Thankfully, HFC substitutes, like propane and ammonia, are available. The city will identify any environmentally harmful refrigerants in its operations and phase them out as part of its re-commissioning process (Green Energy and Buildings Strategy #11).

Build all new municipal facilities to a nationally recognized high- level performance standard (e.g., Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, Florida Green Building Coalition, and Energy Star). The city will lead by example by building all new municipal facilities to a nationally recognized, high-level performance standard such as LEED, Florida Green Building Coalition or Energy Star. Within a chosen standard, the city will prioritize energy and water efficiency as well as waste reduction features. 6.13.- Resilient Infrastructure A. Existing and new infrastructure complies with comprehensive resilience guidelines and the recommendations provided by the Tampa Bay Regional Resiliency Coalition. B. Prioritize resilience upgrades in capital and operational. C. Create educational materials and events for the public to improve the adaptive capacity of their own buildings, structures, and properties. D. Explore grant opportunities for municipal solar photovoltaic and energy storage for critical building infrastructure (e.g., emergency shelters, schools, cooling centers, and nursing or assisted-living homes) to protect vulnerable populations and reduce GHG emissions. COBENEFITS: Existing city facilities and infrastructure may need to be retrofitted extensively in order to withstand local climate change impacts. The vulnerability assessment, outlined in item 5.7(c) of the Resilience Planning and Outreach Strategy, will provide a greater understanding of the projected climate change impacts and risks, as well as the city infrastructure that is most vulnerable. The city will aim to have both existing and new buildings and infrastructure comply with comprehensive resilience guidelines and the recommendations provided by the Tampa Bay Regional Resiliency Coalition. The city will also routinely update its design criteria and community development code to further advance this shift towards resilience.

Finally, the city will create educational materials and events for the public to improve the adaptive capacity their own buildings, structures, and properties. Information such as FEMA flood zone identification, hurricane preparedness, living shoreline or sea wall installation, sea level rise projections and more will be provided in an understandable and reoccurring manner. To protect vulnerable populations while reducing GHG emissions, the city will also explore grant opportunities to add photovoltaic and energy storage for critical building infrastructure, including emergency shelters, schools, cooling centers and nursing or assisted-living homes.

The ability to travel easily and affordably using multiple types of transportation is also essential to a healthy local economy. Therefore, providing safe, convenient, and affordable transportation options for residents, workers, and visitors is an important component of the city’s sustainability plan. Having true transportation choices requires continued investment in “complete streets,” which accommodate pedestrians, bicyclists, transit, and cars; and in designing communities that make these transportation options possible. Clearwater is a largely developed community and most of the major streets in the city have been widened to the maximum extent. This means that new street widening projects to accommodate greater traffic flow are not possible in most areas. With this constraint in mind, we will need alternatives to automobile travel to meet the travel demands that come with increasing population. The pattern and design of our urban places should better support walking, transit, and bicycling. At the same time, the design and function of our street network needs to be rearranged to achieve a balance that meets the needs of all. In addition to promoting alternatives such as public transit, bicycling and walking, the city will prepare for the next major shift in the automobile industry: the electrification of vehicles. Electric vehicles have no direct emissions and are three to six times more energy efficient than a car that runs on gasoline. In addition to their lack of GHGs, switching to electric vehicles decreases the pressure for offshore drilling in the search of oil and results in healthier environments for people by decreasing air pollution. Improvements in the production of electric vehicles over the years have made them increasingly efficient and affordable.

Launch a VMT reduction campaign. B. Reduce city-wide VMT by 10%. C. Launch an internal VMT reduction program for employees. COBENEFITS Success in meeting the city’s GHG reduction goals will require each of us to commit to reducing the amount of driving we do. The city will promote this change by initiating a vehicle miles traveled (VMT) reduction campaign. This campaign will educate residents with the aim of reducing city-wide VMT by 10%. By setting a challenge to reduce VMT by 10%, businesses and residents who participate will consciously consider the amount of driving they do and take specific steps to reduce it. The city will promote a web based VMT reduction challenge tool that will track goals and results and encourage individuals and businesses to develop their own VMT reduction plans. The city will also lead by example through an internal VMT reduction program for their employees, which will require a shift in how employees get to work and conduct city business. 7.2.- Complete Streets Policy A.

Healthy street design is local government policy COBENEFITS DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Transportation ( Page 49 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 Streets are a vital part of livable, attractive communities. Everyone, regardless of age, ability, income, race or ethnicity, should have safe, comfortable and convenient access to community destinations and public places—whether walking, driving, bicycling or taking public transportation. The city has a long-standing commitment to pedestrian and bicycle- friendly infrastructure, which reduces transportation-related GHG emissions, reduces traffic congestion, promotes a healthier lifestyle for Clearwater residents, and creates community cohesion. Providing sidewalks, trails, and bike lanes along city streets is a matter of policy for the city. According to Smart Growth America, Complete Streets are, “designed and operated to prioritize safety, comfort, and access to destinations for all people who use the street, especially people who have experienced systemic underinvestment or whose needs have not been met through a traditional transportation approach”. The city has made significant progress on its complete streets efforts since City Council approved the original Greenprint in 2011. Multiple trails were constructed to connect larger trails, and trail users can now travel all the way from Tampa to Clearwater Beach. A transportation planner position was created in 2016 to focus on the future of the city’s transportation and a Complete Streets Advisory Committee was also established to review future plans. Many residents from the Skycrest Neighborhood worked with city staff to secure a state grant for the Skycrest Complete Streets project in 2018. The intent of the project is to balance accessibility for all modes of transportation, enhance safety, and to encourage economic revitalization and reinvestment along Drew Street and surrounding neighborhoods. Most recently, Clearwater’s city council approved the Complete Streets Implementation Plan to achieve appropriate, active, and safe streets. Such streets can occur by analyzing the types of land uses (residential, commercial, industrial, public, and so on) within an area and understanding how the surrounding streets can be re-designed to meet the mobility needs of people who use them. According to the article, “Street Design Guidelines for Healthy Neighborhoods”, by Dan Burden of Walkable Communities, Inc., healthy streets are, “networks of roadways and connector trails in communities designed primarily for use by people, not just motorized vehicles.” Such streets are designed for motorists to feel comfortable operating at low speeds. Low traffic volume and low noise, easy access, and multiple routes to destinations are also features. Pedestrian and bicycle movements are favored.” The city of Clearwater will implement healthy street design principles as part of local government policy. The city will also consider the 12 Steps of Walkable Communities according to the Florida Department of Transportation Pedestrian and Bicycle Program and the Street Design Guidelines for Healthy Neighborhoods from Walkable Communities, Inc. in formulating new strategies and policy, and in daily operations.

Continue to advocate for more funding to increase bus and trolley stops on existing routes. B. Collaborate with the Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA) to improve bus scheduling. C. Explore and encourage alternative forms of public transportation (e.g., Bus Rapid Transit, carpool, car share, bike share, scooter share, and ferry services). COBENEFITS Improving the transit system will give residents, employees, and visitors access to jobs, services and tourist destinations. In 2017, the city partnered with the Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA) to construct the Clearwater Beach Transit Center. The center added a bus bay, multiple covered pedestrian waiting areas, and new stops for riders making connections along the beach. Most notably, the Clearwater Beach Transit Center included Pinellas county’s first queue-jump, signal prioritization which allows buses to pull ahead of traffic to shorten travel times. The city also funds additional trolley services during the time period in which most schools have spring break in order to reduce the amount of congestion to and from the beach. Most recently, the city is working with the Florida Department of Transportation and the PSTA to form a Memorial Causeway Busway Plan to improve traffic flow to Clearwater Beach. The PSTA has also made significant advancements in its ability to keep passengers informed about real-time bus schedules and wait times. Both a website and a downloadable phone application are available to improve user experience and increase ridership. The city has and will continue advocating for more funding to increase bus and trolley stops on existing routes, which will improve ridership by increasing convenience. The city can also work with the PSTA to prevent poor scheduling of buses and require a minimum amount of wait time between buses. Public transit has also evolved beyond what was envisioned at the time Clearwater Greenprint was first created. Public transit now includes Bus Rapid Transit, carpooling, car share systems (i.e. Uber, Lyft, etc.), zip cars, bike share, and scooters. Water transportation with ferry services, like the Clearwater Ferry, have also become a possibility. The city will explore and further encourage these initiatives.

Host a minimum of one event per year at which the public is encouraged to try an electric vehicle. E. Partner with an organization such as the Sierra Club or Southern Alliance for Clean Energy to create an event that encourages residents and businesses to shift to hybrid electric vehicles. COBENEFITS The city will create an environment where low-to-zero emission vehicles have infrastructure that supports them. This includes opportunities for different fueling, parking, and operational needs. High fuel efficiency combustion engine vehicles of all kinds have a place in the future community vehicle fleet mix. This includes high fuel efficiency cars, hybrid vehicles, electric vehicles, motorcycles, mopeds, scooters, and golf carts. Electric driving requires a shift in how we fuel our vehicles as fueling can take place at home, in the community, or along our highways. Perceived lack of charging stations is cited as one of the top barriers to electric vehicle ownership. Therefore, increasing awareness and access to charging infrastructure is one of the best things the community can do to encourage electric vehicle use. The city will continue installing public EV charging equipment and will adopt policies to encourage private investment in charging infrastructure. The city will also adopt “EV ready” policies and changes to the Community Development Code that include charging stations for electric vehicles in new developments. The city will also aim to hold at least one event each year that encourages the public to try an electric vehicle. Multiple organizations, including the Sierra Club and Southern Alliance for Clean Energy can assist in creating an educational and engaging event. Through readiness, the city will provide residents and local businesses encouragement to shift to hybrid and electric vehicles and lower their transportation related GHGs.

Adopt a Green Fleet Policy to govern use and procurement of fleet vehicles B. Investigate financing mechanisms to offset cost of fleet conversion (e.g., vehicle leasing and federal tax credit) C. Increase the share of municipal light-duty vehicles running on alternative fuels. Over the last ten years, a number of vehicles within the city’s fleet, including 70 garbage and recycling trucks, have been converted to run on compressed natural gas instead of conventional gasoline. While natural gas does produce GHG emissions, current energy-use models find it to produce 6-11% less emissions than gasoline. The city will continue to improve the sustainability of its municipal fleet by adopting a Green Fleet Policy to govern its vehicle purchases and driving practices. As part of this policy, the city will create a vehicle replacement procedure to replace all light duty vehicles with alternative fuels as replacement is needed. This will also require that the city install EV charging stations at key places in order to allow its electric vehicles to charge. The city will investigate the use of certain financing mechanisms, such as vehicle leasing, to participate in the federal tax credit available on electric vehicles. 7.6.- Congestion Management A. Manage traffic congestion by considering alternative intersection designs. B. Continue to include roundabouts in new road construction projects. C. Consider use of other congestion management practices. COBENEFITS Projects that reduce congestion and idling have a significant effect on GHG emissions from vehicles. Since the first version of Greenprint, multiple intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and advanced traffic management systems (ATMS) have been installed around the city to improve congestion, and pedestrian signals have been installed at key intersections. Furthermore, all ATMS facilities have dynamic message signs (DMS) that relay real-time DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Transportation ( Page 53 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 information to travelers, allowing drivers to prepare for road closures, accidents, or emergency news. The city can further manage traffic congestion by considering alternative intersection designs. Continuing to include roundabouts in new road construction projects can have multiple benefits including the reduced frequency and severity of crashes, reduced traffic delays, increased traffic capacity, reduced long-term operational costs, and reduced emissions and noise. To date, there are 34 roundabouts throughout the city. Additional congestion management practices include: ITS technology that includes real-time congestion and auto travel information; transit trip planning; mobile ticketing; bike/car sharing; and vanpooling technology. 7.7.- Municipal Telecommuting Policy A. Increase the alternative work schedule and telecommuting opportunities available to city workforce B. Encourage virtual meetings in lieu of in-person meetings requiring travel by automobile whenever possible With transportation being a large and increasing contributor to our city-wide GHG emissions, the city will lead by example in reducing vehicle miles traveled within city boundaries by using alternative work schedules and increasing telecommuting opportunities within its workforce. It will also encourage virtual meetings, rather than in-person meetings that require driving, wherever possible. The city will develop a Telecommuting Policy to establish alternative work schedule options and define eligible positions and candidates.

These conditions resulted in important destinations such as workplaces, homes, schools, and commercial centers being built far apart from one another. Clearwater’s sprawling development pattern contributes to residents’ heavy dependence on personal automobiles for travel. Because most of Clearwater is already developed, the city must look towards improving vacant or underutilized properties to make it easier to access resources and promote growth. Creating conditions that enable sustainable growth requires thoughtful consideration of the relationships between how a property is used and the transportation options available to the surrounding community. Many areas in the city are either stable in redevelopment or are attracting new building development at a very slow rate. Where redevelopment is not occurring, buildings will need to be maintained, repurposed, or retrofitted. This will ensure that quality housing, jobs, goods and services are available throughout the community. Improving existing buildings was identified as one of the biggest long-term challenges facing the city in the original Clearwater Greenprint plan. That challenge continues to exist. There has been an increasing rate of building obsolescence due to rapid residential and commercial growth using infrastructure that regularly needs to be replaced. These buildings require a large amount of ongoing maintenance and energy to operate. The present and future owners of Clearwater’s existing buildings will be challenged to invest enough money to successfully maintain the building frame while upgrading the infrastructure inside to be more energy efficient. In addition to challenges in the existing building stock, there are demographic trends that need to be considered when designing a sustainable approach to land use. According to United States Census Bureau estimates, Pinellas County was one of only two counties in Florida that did not increase in permanent population from 2000 to 2010. Permanent population consists of those residents who live in the county year-round. However, other local projects from the Pinellas County planning agency and Forward Pinellas anticipate some population growth in the decades to come. This growth is not expected to be as large as what is expected in other neighboring counties with more vacant land. There is also the potential for change in the retired population that moves to the area. Clearwater will continue to attract new retirees over time, but it will most likely be a population of retirees with less spending money than past generations. If the retiree migration rate declines over time, that population will need to be replaced to keep the local Livability Photo Credit: Paul Sacca DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Livability ( Page 56 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 economy growing and strong. As a result, there is a need to attract different demographics to the city including young and working-aged people to the city. In light of this information, the city will need to find a balance between encouraging high quality, energy-efficient development and maintaining an economic environment that is attractive to developers to create new homes and jobs. At the same time, the city will need to incentivize reuse and revitalization of the existing structures so they can remain usable over the long term. Finally, the city has the opportunity to improve quality of life and mitigate greenhouse gas emissions by improving or transforming land area that is currently underutilized. The city will continue to increase the tree canopy through its own plantings and by encouraging plantings on private property. It will also continue to seek opportunities to create and maintain areas for recreational purposes and protect environmental resources. Ultimately, the city wishes to create a livable neighborhood, or one that is pleasant, safe, affordable, and supportive of its members. Such a neighborhood may include attractive pedestrian-oriented streets with low traffic speed and congestion as well as affordable, sustainable housing that is within reasonable distance to employment opportunities that offer living wages.

Continue to provide for mixed-use development in livable, transit- oriented neighborhoods B. Improve regulation, investment, and incentives that will fulfill residents’ household and transportation needs COBENEFITS The city has continued to provide for mixed-use development in livable, transit-oriented neighborhoods. Mixed-use development is development that consolidates commercial, residential, or industrial spaces on a single property. In 2012, the city’s Planning and Development department worked with a consultant to create US 19 Corridor Redevelopment plan. This plan focused on increasing the density of available commercial and residential buildings in order to allow for greater transportation options. In essence, the plan intends to bring a “live, work, and play” element to an area that previously experienced only heavy commuting traffic. Following this plan, amendments to the city’s Comprehensive Plan occurred in 2016 to support the new zoning district and development standards. The areas identified in the original Clearwater Greenprint document have not been formally established as Energy Conservation Areas; however, each of the identified areas have been included in the Citywide Design Structure as Activity Centers and Redevelopment Corridors. The city will work to improve regulation, investment, and incentives that will fulfill residents’ household and transportation needs.

Encourage restoration and reuse of buildings as an alternative to demolition B. Maintain the historic designation process to ensure that historically significant properties and neighborhoods remain stable, well-maintained, and available for long-term use C. Continue to implement a brownfield program and identify incentives such as tax credits for brownfield and greyfield development D. Consider partnership with an educational institution or non-profit organization to demonstrate the benefits of compost in a pilot program or through a publication COBENEFITS A sustainable urban environment has a variety of building types, sizes, and ages. This variability allows buildings to be reused for different purposes over the course of their life. New buildings should be designed with flexible space to maximize the potential for reuse in the future. Designing buildings that can be used for many potential purposes reduces vacancy. It also reduces the need for costly demolition. In addition to economic benefits, reducing construction and demolition waste greatly reduces the amount of garbage generated by the city, as both practices make up a large percentage of the waste stream. Restoration and reuse of building materials prevent this waste. The city will encourage restoration and reuse of buildings rather than demolition. If demolition is needed, the city will look to deconstruct buildings, reusing or recycling the building’s materials wherever possible. The city will also maintain the historic designation process, which helps ensure certain properties and neighborhoods are stable, maintained, and available for long term use. The city will continue to implement its brownfields program and identify incentives, such as tax credits, for brownfield and greyfield development. These are properties that have a degree of hazardous waste or abandoned buildings on them and are difficult to sell as a result. Financial incentives will offset some of the cost of remediation and promote reuse of these usable but sometimes abandoned lands. When remediation is needed, the city will look towards adding compost as an amendment to disturbed land. In addition to preventing food waste from being discarded as trash, compost has a remediating quality for soil. It increases the needed beneficial micro-biotic life within soil, retains water, and allows the ground to sequester carbon. This reduces GHG emissions in the atmosphere. The city will consider working with an educational institution or non-profit organization to demonstrate the benefits of compost in a pilot program site or publication.

Continue to cultivate a self-sustaining community and local economy to reduce VMT and increase accessibility COBENEFITS Available housing choices must have a range of prices to attract residents in all life stages and income levels. Affordable, energy-efficient, and location-ideal housing will increase the chances that Clearwater will continue to maintain and attract a diverse population. Monitoring and working toward creating the right mix of housing type and cost will create a balance of housing supply to jobs. This balance will reduce the need for Clearwater residents to commute outside the city to work. Reducing the distance residents drive to work not only reduces the city’s GHG emissions from fuel, it also creates a more affordable and enjoyable living experience for Clearwater residents. The city has created plans, known as the Consolidated Plan and Local Housing Assistance Plan, with policies that support a variety of housing types and prices. Furthermore, two new districts have been created to encourage further diversity of housing type and redevelopment within Clearwater’s downtown and U.S. Highway 19 areas. The city will continue to create a more self-sustaining community and local economy that will reduce the need for driving while increasing convenience and accessibility to employment.

Support and expand the community’s capacity to manage, develop, and enhance greenspace for natural habitat, recreation, gardening, and outdoor education activities COBENEFITS Maintaining passive parks with minimal recreation opportunities (i.e.. walking, biking only) and maximize natural greenspace and ecosystem function is a win-win. Our community benefits by having access to much needed natural landscape while providing ecosystem relief in a highly urbanized region. The city is continuing with its goals of preserving and expanding greenspace. In February 2019, Moccasin Lake Nature Park reopened after renovations and is now home to a butterfly garden and multiple native plant installations. By offering hiking trails and nature classes, the center is a beautiful resource for those interested in learning more about Florida’s natural ecosystems and wildlife. Clearwater’s Coachman Ridge Park also underwent renovations that were needed to allow greater stormwater flow from the city’s new Solid Waste Transfer Station. The Parks & Recreation department and Engineering department updated the park by increasing the number of trees from 300 to 1,911. Clearwater Greenies, a component of the city’s Parks and Recreation Department, hosts a number of beach, park, and neighborhood cleanup projects throughout the year. The department also offers Adopt-A-Trail, Adopt-A-Park, Adopt-A-Street, and Adopt-A- Waterway programs for citizens and businesses. In 2018, over a thousand hours were spent beautifying spaces and removing litter from areas within Clearwater. The city will continue to support and expand the community’s capacity to manage, develop, and enhance greenspaces for natural habitat, recreation, gardening, and outdoor education opportunities. This includes improving and maintaining public property, creating public- private partnerships to transition underutilized land to these uses and enabling and encouraging these uses on private property through public policies and programs. Enhancing and expanding greenspace will result in better stormwater management, higher carbon sequestration, and a better quality of life for residents.

Pilot a forest carbon sequestration project on municip al land which will sequester carbon to offset a portion of the community’s annual GHG emissions H. Develop the planting program under an existing urban forestry project protocol to allow for recording and reporting the results of the program COBENEFITS For Arbor Day 2019, the city celebrated its 37th year as a Tree City USA by giving away thousands of young trees to residents. This tree giveaway is an annual tradition. The city will continue its legacy as a Tree City by developing a program to educate community members on the benefits of planting trees and recognize residents and businesses that participate. The city will consider piloting a forest carbon sequestration project on municipal land, which along with other existing landscape installations will sequester carbon to offset a portion of the community’s annual GHG emissions. Carbon sequestration is the process by which atmospheric carbon dioxide is taken up by trees, grasses, and other plants through photosynthesis and stored as carbon in biomass (trunks, branches, foliage, and roots) and soils. The sequestration of carbon in forests and wood products helps to offset sources of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, such as fossil fuel emissions. The planting program should be developed under an existing urban forestry project protocol to allow for recording and reporting the results of the program. The city will also assess its current tree canopy and set an increased canopy goal based on that assessment. The project will look at the three Ps of natural resource management (Possible, Potential, and Preferable), GIS methodology, and the Forest Opportunity Spectrum (FOS) for goal setting. From this goal, an implementation plan to increase the city’s tree canopy will be established. Local ordinances, regulations, and the city’s Comprehensive Plan will be updated as needed to accommodate the tree canopy goal. The city will maintain its current tree canopy through a tree preservation and protection ordinance requiring property DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Livability ( Page 65 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 owners to apply for permit and compensate the city when removing trees from the public right of way and apply for a permit for certain clearing activities on private property to the extent permitted by law. It’s important to note, however, that canopy size is just one of many criteria to consider when evaluating urban trees. For instance, a robust tree canopy comprised of largely invasive species is not desirable. Age and species diversity, condition of trees and equitable distribution across income levels, to name a few, should also be considered in any future targets. 8.6.- Environmental Conservation A. Become a certified community under the National Wildlife Federation Wildlife Habitat Program B. Adopt a sea turtle ordinance C. Create an endangered lands conservation/purchasing program D. Promote eco-literacy COBENEFITS The city will create programs to increase awareness of our region’s plants and animals and the importance of preserving our natural resources. These initiatives could build on existing partnerships with local organizations such as the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, the Florida Native Plant Society, the Audubon Society, the Tampa Bay Estuary Program, and others. These programs will further assist already existing efforts to raise public awareness of Clearwater’s green spaces and trees, including existing nature preserves such as Moccasin Lake Nature Park. The city of Clearwater will become a certified community under the National Wildlife Habitat Program. As part of this undertaking, the city will take the National Wildlife Foundation Mayor’s Monarch Pledge which involves committing to create habitat for the monarch butterfly and pollinators and educating residents. The city will also create and participate in programs that increase awareness of our region’s plants and animals and the importance of preserving our natural resources. These initiatives include creation of an endangered lands conservation and purchasing program and could build on existing partnerships with local organizations. These programs will further assist already existing efforts to raise public awareness of Clearwater’s green spaces and trees, including existing nature preserves such as Moccasin Lake Nature Park. To support program participation and creation, the city of Clearwater will draft and adopt regulations as necessary.

Create an IPM plan address invasive species and problematic insects at city-owned properties B. Provide the public with educational materials concerning invasive species identification and IPM best practices C. Consider partnership with an educational institution (e.g., Saint Petersburg College of the University of South Florida) to develop an IPM plan and subsequent educational outreach COBENEFITS Integrated Pest Management (IPM), is a practice used to remove organisms that are causing harm to a desirable plant, ecosystem, or structure. IPM is designed to solve these problems while minimizing risks to people and the environment. IPM provides long-term pest prevention, using natural control methods and only uses pesticides if no other option is effective. IPM pest control materials are selected to affect a specific target organism without harming surrounding organisms. Furthermore, the pest control materials are applied in a manner that minimizes risks to human health. The city will create an IPM plan to alleviate city-owned properties of invasive species and problematic insects. The plan will provide guidance on non-native, invasive plants and species, as well as a detailed plan for removal and/or management of such species. The plan will emphasize non-toxic options and consider potential expansion of invasive species due to climate change. Educational materials about invasive species identification and best IPM removal practices will be provided to the public. Working with an educational institution, like Saint Petersburg College or the University of South Florida, should be considered for both the development of an IPM plan and the work of providing public education.

Develop street design standards that maximize energy efficiency and minimize heat COBENEFITS Energy-efficient street design reduces the amount of heat absorbed by streets, which translates into cooler neighborhoods and less air conditioning use in buildings and cars. Energy-efficient streets are often oriented to protect and enable solar access, and are narrower, better shaded, and constructed with cool paving materials. Tactics include utilizing shade from tree canopies and using cool pavements that enhance water percolation or reflect the sun’s energy rather than absorb it. Shading streets and other paved surfaces will minimize the pavement’s exposure to the sun thereby reducing ambient neighborhood temperatures by as much as 10°F. This, in turn, reduces the cooling loads in buildings. The city will develop street design standards that maximize energy-efficiency and minimize heat. 8.9.- Environmental Justice A. Explore options for preventing excessive levels of pollution and mitigate environmental and other impacts such as noise, odor, and traffic in low-income communities and communities of color B. Include potential environmental and public health impacts of land use decisions into planning and zoning activities C. Prioritize affordable housing for historically displaced groups to prevent green gentrification D. Consider measures to ensure that rent in improved neighborhoods remains affordable and savings from energy efficiency improvements are passed on to tenants E.

This can be achieved by assessing current city zoning and land use policies to determine where environmental justice criteria can be incorporated. The city will also include the potential environmental and public health impacts of land use decisions into planning and zoning activities. In an effort to prevent green gentrification, a phenomenon in which the addition of parks, better transit options, and health measures push people out of newly improved neighborhoods, the city will prioritize affordable housing for historically displaced groups. Measures will be considered as to how the city can ensure rent in improved neighborhoods remains affordable and savings from energy-efficiencies can be passed along to tenants.

Our habits, practices, and expectations about the availability of freshwater threaten long term enjoyment of this vital resource. Clearwater residents use approximately 11.2 million gallons of drinking water every day. Around 80% of this water is pumped from city-owned and operated groundwater wells. The remaining water is supplied by water purchased from Pinellas County Utilities. While vital to the community, the water treatment process requires a large amount of energy. Transporting and treating water is the highest energy user and greenhouse gas emissions source of all the municipal operations. Water use and the energy demand associated with it can be reduced through behavioral change. There are many behavior-related conservation strategies that can be implemented as first steps toward achieving a more sustainable water resource management system. These types of strategies simply require awareness of the issue and the corrective action, along with personal or organizational desire to be part of the solution. Although Clearwater residents use significantly less water per capita per day (81 gallons) than the national average (88 gallons), water conservation measures can still result in savings. Beyond behavioral changes, there is the installation of water-saving devices in homes and businesses. These low-cost investments produce long-term savings, especially when coupled with reduced need for hot water, which requires a significant amount of energy to produce. Limiting water used for irrigation is essential to reducing water use. Though it requires some knowledge, planning, and investment, landscaping can be designed to use small amounts of water and irrigation systems can be configured to operate only where and when needed. By watering lawns and gardens more efficiently, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates that Florida residents could save 46 million gallons of water each day, or the daily amount needed to supply every household in Tampa. As a coastal community, it is also important to consider potential impacts from the forecasted sea level rise in Clearwater; among them, flooding and reduced access to drinking water.

Encourage residents and businesses to adopt water conservation standards such as Florida Water Star for existing and new construction. D. Consider developing year-round water restrictions that are more stringent than Southwest Florida Water Management District restrictions. COBENEFITS The city has and will continue to encourage water conservation in Clearwater homes, businesses, and industries. The city’s Public Utilities department actively educates community members about the availability of water-saving devices such as low-flow toilets and high-efficiency irrigation systems. These devices have been popular in the region and have resulted in significant water savings over the last decade. As a result, the city has a very low usage of water per person. Since the first Clearwater Greenprint plan, the city has continued to progress completing each of the reclaimed water services identified in its Water Supply & Treatment Master Plan. On an annual basis, the city will continue to consider changes to water use regulation and fees. The assessment will include continued evaluation of options to revise rates for promotion of water conservation. The city will encourage residents and businesses to adopt water conservation standards such as Florida Water Star for existing and new construction and will consider developing Figure 1.- Painted rain barrels (XXXX) DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Water Conservation ( Page 74 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 year-round water restrictions that are more stringent than Southwest Florida Water Management District restrictions. 9.2.- Waterwise Landscapes A.

Collecting rainwater is a great example of LID. By collecting and using rainwater, we can greatly reduce the use of treated water for landscape irrigation. Rainwater collecting systems, especially from roof areas, are easy to install and there are a variety of sizes and styles of rain barrels and cisterns for rainwater storage. Other examples of LID include bioswales, rain gardens, green roofs, and more. The National Resource Defense Council analyzed 17 LID case studies comparing the cost of LID and conventional stormwater management practices. In most cases, LID methods were both economically and environmentally beneficial, with capital cost savings ranging from 15 to 80%. Since Clearwater Greenprint was first created, the city has incorporated LID elements into its Stormwater Drainage Criteria Manual and the development standards it uses for the US 19 and Downtown zoning districts. The Cleveland Streetscape Phase III design will also incorporate LID practices such as integrating stormwater detention into vegetated street areas so that it can be stored temporarily until it can drain naturally instead of diverting it directly into the city’s stormwater system. Looking forward, the city will identify and prioritize potential retrofits to city buildings for rainwater capture. Additionally, the city will create guidance for private property owners to develop and implement rainwater collecting plans with a goal of capturing runoff from at least 10% of impervious surfaces, or surfaces that prevent the entry of water (e.g., asphalt, concrete, brick, and stone). The focus of the efforts should be on roof area, but might include installations that capture, retain and treat stormwater runoff from parking lots, driveways and roads. Rainwater collecting systems, in combination with reuse of greywater, which is relatively clean wastewater from baths, sinks or washing machines, will reduce demand for and expense of piped water for landscape irrigation. As part of the overall sustainable water resources program, integrating LID principles into building and site designs, such as bioswales, rain gardens, and other vegetated areas, will go a long way toward raising awareness of water resource issues. LID also has many non- water saving benefits, including conserving greenspace and stormwater retention. The city will work to increase awareness of these co-benefits.

While the waste-to-energy process reduces the amount of solid waste deposited in landfills and generates electricity, it also produces greenhouse gas emissions from the burning of plastics, tires, and other carbon- based waste materials. 90% of the garbage created in the county is burned through waste- to-energy while 10% is landfilled. The landfilling of material also creates methane, a harmful GHG when produced in excess. In 2018, Clearwater residents and businesses generated 6.6 million tons of garbage and recycled 9.6 thousand tons of plastic containers, glass bottles, metal cans, mixed paper, and newspaper. Additionally, 3.7 thousand tons of yard waste was collected and repurposed. Both businesses and consumers can have a large impact on waste reduction. Business can make products using less toxins and packaging while increasing their use of packaging that is recyclable or compostable. Consumers can better manage their waste by reusing items, recycling properly, composting, and correctly disposing of electronics and other hazardous waste. We should all do our best to avoid products that generate large amounts of waste and choose to reuse items rather than placing them in the trash. Further sustainable practices include composting at home, recycling properly, and buying products that are made of material that was previously recycled.

Continue to offer yard waste collection to residents, encourage more households to participate, and investigate opportunities for collection of other organic waste such as food waste for composting. In 2010, the city started a residential yard waste program to divert yard waste (i.e. leaves, grass clippings, branches) away from the county waste-to-energy facility and landfill. Instead, the yard debris material was collected and sent to a company that repurposes it into mulch or fuel. The program has reduced operating hours and solid waste disposal fees paid by the city’s Solid Waste and Recycling department. The city will continue to offer yard waste collection to residents, encourage more households to participate, and investigate opportunities for collection of other organic waste such as food waste for composting. 10.2.- Recycling Program Continuation A. Continue to offer recycling services to residents and businesses. The city expanded previous recycling options to include more types of plastic as well as glass. It also launched a single-stream recycling program in 2013 to make recycling more convenient and provided 90-gallon barrels to every single-family home. In the fiscal year that extended from 2016 to 2017, almost 14 thousand tons of material was recycled as opposed to the 6,000 tons in 2009. In January of 2018, China, which traditionally was the largest importer of the world's recycling - receiving over 30% of all global material, announced that it would not accept any recycling that contained more than 0.05% contamination. In regard to recycling, contamination is anything that is not recyclable – this includes plastic bags, food waste, containers with liquid, Styrofoam, fabric, hoses, wood, paint, scrap metal, etc. DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Waste Reduction ( Page 80 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 An audit of Clearwater's recycling stream was also conducted in 2018 and found that the city’s recycling ranged from 25-30% contamination. This is a trend that can be seen across the United States, with many cities having a similar contamination rate in their recycling. Contamination can create very hazardous working conditions, as plastic bags and electronics can cause fires in our facilities. Contamination can also cause an entire load of true recyclables to be rejected by the city’s processors and then it all must be disposed of as trash. Furthermore, contamination also makes recycling programs costly. China's essential closure as a market, in addition to improper recycling practices across the U.S., has made recycling very expensive for cities - even more so than taking the material to a landfill or waste-to-energy facility. As a result, cities around the country have decided to end their recycling programs. Fortunately, the city of Clearwater remains committed to offering a recycling program to its residents and businesses. The city is actively focusing on improving the quality of its recycling and is educating the public about what is accepted in the city’s program. Focusing on waste reduction, first and foremost, is the best course of action – with proper composting and recycling being used as secondary practices to repurpose valuable material. 10.3.- Backyard Composting Program A. Continue the virtual Clearwater Creates Compost course and complete an annual compost bin giveaway day Organic waste, like food scraps and yard trimmings, release methane when placed within the oxygen-free conditions of a landfill. Methane is an incredibly potent GHG. In 2018, methane produced roughly 9.5% of all human made U.S. GHG emissions. While that percentage is small, methane has a global warming factor that is 25 times greater than carbon dioxide over a 100-year period. In an effort to reduce food waste as well as methane generation, the city launched an online “Create Compost” course in late 2020 that encourages people to learn to compost in their backyard. Program participation was incentivized by providing a starter composting bin to residents who enroll in the program and live within City of Clearwater limits.

Develop a pilot composting program to divert food scraps from landfills and demonstrate the viability of a city-wide program. With the help of local organizations, the city will develop a pilot composting program to divert food scraps from the landfill and demonstrate the viability of a city-wide program. The pilot program will initially target the commercial sector, with preference for high volume generators of food waste including hospitals, schools, hotels, and restaurants for on-site or collection composting programs. Information on participation rates, challenges, benefits, and costs will be tracked and monitored. If demonstrated that the program’s economic, environmental and social benefits outweigh the costs, the study may be expanded to collecting and processing food waste from select neighborhoods in the residential sector. 10.5.-Trash to Trends Event A. Organize an annual community event for swapping reusable goods to divert reusable goods from the solid waste stream. Similar to websites like FreeCycle and Craigslist that provide a platform for giving away or exchanging used goods, the city will organize an annual community event for swapping reusable goods. The event, like the Clearwater Community Swap held in downtown in 2010, would serve to divert reusable goods from the solid waste stream and could be combined with an educational and awareness campaign on waste reduction practices.

Adopt formal waste reduction policy and goals that address ocean-friendly recycling and printing practices. B. Consider development of standards for events held on municipal sites to reduce waste generation, consumption of single-use plastics, and increase recycling by thousands of eventgoers per year. COBENEFITS At present, the city promotes payment of bills online. Moving forward, where possible, the city will also transmit important billing documents on recycled paper. Furthermore, the city offers recycling at many of its facilities and has transitioned to paperless (i.e., electronic) systems in most of its departments. In 2018, the Clearwater City Council also unanimously passed Resolution 18-08 to encourage Clearwater businesses to adopt ocean-friendly practices. Ocean-friendly businesses choose reusable, paper-based biodegradable, compostable or recyclable materials instead and maintain a clean recycling program. Ocean-friendly practices include not using plastic bags, plastic straws, plastic utensils, Styrofoam, and balloons. The city’s next step will be to adopt a formal waste reduction policy and goals that address ocean-friendly, recycling, and printing practices. Also, standards for events held on municipal sites will be developed to reduce waste generation and use of single use plastics as well as increase recycling by thousands of event goers in Clearwater each year. Guidelines for this municipal waste reduction policy will be outlined under the city’s Green Procurement Policy (Green Economy strategy #8).

As a result, most food consumed by Clearwater residents comes from other counties, states, and even countries. Transporting this food from far-away locations requires fuel and accounts 14% of the total energy used to get food from farm to market. A sustainable community provides healthy food for its people. The quality of food, health, and the natural environment are interconnected. The availability of healthy foods directly influences what people eat and therefore their physical well-being. Local foods are transported shorter distances from farm to consumer tables, ensuring fresher foods while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Local foods also tend to be less processed and require less refrigeration, which also reduces GHG emissions. Local foods are generally fresher than foods transported long distances. Most locally-produced food also uses fewer toxic chemicals, which can impact community health and the natural environment. Eating a diet that is also rich in plants has a lower carbon footprint and conserves more water than diets with higher amounts of meat. While younger generations have grown up without great awareness of where their food comes from, there are many people in Clearwater that have substantial knowledge about small-scale food production that could provide guidance for community gardening. This presents a significant opportunity for learning, experimenting, and knowledge sharing within the community and even bridging cultural and generational divides. Growing food also brings about a greater knowledge of Clearwater’s seasons, soil, and wildlife. This knowledge adds to a greater sense of place and care for our land.

Participating in a community gardens can multiply these benefits. From a sustainability perspective, community gardens are great because they increase our community’s access to fresh and local produce, improving Clearwater’s carbon footprint by decreasing the travel distance food takes from farm to table. This close proximity also helps to encourage a more resilient food system. Community gardens go even further to enable additional social benefits, as they encourage neighbors to get to know one another and support a sense of place and pride within our community. To support Clearwater’s existing community gardens and encourage new community gardens to develop, the city of Clearwater will create a Community Garden Grant Program. The mission of the Program will be to advance the city’s sustainability goals by supporting the creation or development of community gardens within city limits. 11.5.- Climate-Friendly Food Policy A. Encourage staff and residents to a eat plant-rich meal at least once a week. B. Integrate climate-friendly food procurement guidelines into the Green Procurement Policy. C. Consider a resolution in support of “Meatless Mondays.” COBENEFITS U.S. citizens consume roughly 2.6 times more meat than the global per person average. Greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture have increased by 10.1% since 1990 and animal agriculture is now responsible for more than half of all food related greenhouse gas emissions. Alternatively, diets that are plant-rich, meaning they include more vegetables, fruits, and grains, have lower emissions than diets that mostly derived from animal products. There are also additional health benefit for plant-rich diets, including reducing the risk of heart disease and diabetes. As large population centers, cities and counties have a critical role to play. By reducing the amount of animal products purchased with municipal funds and serving more plant-rich options on city property and events, we can reduce our indirect greenhouse gas emissions and water footprints, all while offering healthier food. The city of Clearwater will consider a resolution in support of “Meatless Mondays” and will encourage staff and residents to eating more plant-rich meals at least once a week. The city will also integrate climate-friendly food procurement guidelines in its Green Procurement Policy (Green Economy strategy #8).

As a result, it can be confusing when trying to choose the best item to purchase or business to support. Many people want to support a business that is doing something good for the world, but these businesses can be difficult to identify. Many businesses would consider more sustainable products and practices if they were provided with direction and shown that “going green” is a good financial decision. A green economy fosters businesses that help protect, restore, and enhance our natural environment. By supporting green businesses, Clearwater’s economy can thrive and prosper while achieving community goals of generating less waste and pollution, saving energy, restoring green spaces, growing food locally, and conserving water. Green businesses could include companies that develop renewable energy or alternative fuels, grow organic produce locally, make products from recycled materials, implement resource conservation practices, or choose to avoid single-use plastics. Traditional companies that modify their practices to be more resource efficient, such as builders who learn to use energy-efficient, environmentally sustainable materials and construction practices, could also meet the definition of green business.

Develop a database of green businesses and the number and types of green jobs within the city. B. Establish criteria for classifying green businesses and jobs, allowing for flexibility as new developments in green industry and business practices arise. COBENEFITS The city will develop a database of all green businesses including the number and types of green jobs in Clearwater. The city will need to establish criteria for classifying green businesses and jobs, allowing for flexibility as new developments in green industry and business practices arise. This data can be collected through surveys, online business searches, and phone interviews with the development community and industry organizations. Clearwater can use the business tax receipt application and renewal process to facilitate data collection. 12.2.- Best Practices Sharing A. Recognize businesses that have received LEED, FGBC, Florida Green Lodging Program, and Ocean Friendly certifications on the city website. COBENEFITS The city Sustainability & Resilience website will recognize businesses that have received green certifications from Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), the Florida Green Building Coalition (FGBC), the Florida Green Lodging Program, and Ocean Allies certified Ocean Friendly. The city will also develop a system to recognize and profile other businesses that are taking steps to become more sustainable and resource efficient DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Green Economy ( Page 94 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 without pursuing certifications. The profiles will highlight best practices and the environmental, economic, and social benefits of different companies’ efforts. 12.3.- Green Job Development A. Become a member of Florida Local Environmental Resource Agencies (FLERA). B. Connect unemployed and underemployed people to local gre en job opportunities. C. Partner with existing institutions and organizations like St. Petersburg College and CareerSource Pinellas to offer workforce training programs in green job skills. COBENEFITS In conjunction with generating green jobs locally, the city will also work to connect people who may be unemployed or underemployed to these new opportunities. The city will partner with existing institutions and organizations, like St. Petersburg College and CareerSource Pinellas, to offer workforce training programs in green job skills, such as renewable energy, energy efficiency, waste reduction, food production, and green building. The program will be implemented in tandem with programs and initiatives that are available in Clearwater to ensure that training results in job placement. 12.4.- Green Guide A. Partner with tourism-based businesses and other local tourism agencies to create a green guide that promotes local businesses that commit to green practices. B. Increase participation in green business designation programs by the hospitality industry (e.g., the Florida Green Lodging Program). COBENEFITS Many businesses in Clearwater rely on tourism, including local hotels, restaurants, real estate rentals, tour operators, and visitor travel outlets. People now want to spend money DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Green Economy ( Page 95 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 at businesses that align with their personal values. As a result, the city will partner with these tourism-based businesses and other local tourism agencies to create a green guide that promotes local businesses that have made a commitment to green practices. This partnership can also create participation in green business designation programs for the hospitality industry, such as the Florida Green Lodging Program, and for other types of businesses that qualify under programs such as Pinellas County’s Green Business Partnership. The city may choose to create its own designation criteria or registration program in implementing this strategy. 12.5.- Regional Partnerships A. Continue to partner with local and regional organizations and focus on devising new strategies to attract green businesses to the area. B. Leverage economic development centers to spur local economic development in the green business sector. COBENEFITS Economic development centers can be leveraged to spur local economic development in the green business sector. Collaborations are being developed at many levels in the Tampa Bay region, from local municipalities, including the city, up to regional levels like the Tampa Bay Partnership which encompasses eight counties. In 2015, Clearwater Business SPARK was formed to provide a variety of services to developing businesses, including educational resources, mentoring programs, and networking opportunities. The city’s Economic Development department also directs businesses and entrepreneurs to additional facilities and programs, such as the Tampa Bay Innovation Center (TBIN). TBIN is committed to cultivating entrepreneurs and developing technology startups. Other regional organizations include the Tampa Bay Entrepreneur Center, Tampa Bay Wave, USF Connect, and Pasco SmartStart. The city will also become a member of Florida Local Environmental Resource Agencies (FLERA), an organization formed in the 1960s that aims to enhance communication, education, and advocacy for Florida local environmental protection efforts. The city will continue to partner with local and regional organizations and will focus on devising new strategies to specifically attract green businesses to the area.

Develop a municipal GRF to fund sustainable projects and uphold cost-effective services. COBENEFITS A Green Revolving Fund (GRF) is an internal funding pool that is reserved for financing energy efficiency improvements, renewable energy projects, and other sustainability projects that produce a cost savings. A portion of those savings are then used to replenish the fund and enable an organization to reinvest in future sustainable projects that produce similar savings. Thus, a revolving source of capital is generated to facilitate more green projects and financial savings. The city will develop a municipal GRF to fund sustainable projects and uphold cost-effective services. The Better Buildings Solution Center, a program of the U.S. Department of Energy, offers a number of tools and example programs that the city can use to form its own GRF. 12.7.- Green Purchasing Policy A. Develop a “Green Purchasing Policy” to encourage the purchase of environmentally preferable products that mitigate the city’s environmental impact. B. Create procedures to help departments make the most sustainable purchases possible. In order to ensure that the city is purchasing goods and services that best align with the city’s environmental values and sustainability goals, the city will develop a Green Purchasing Policy to encourage the purchasing of environmentally preferable products that improves the city’s overall impact on the environment. Preferred products or services are those that have the most positive effect on human health and the environment when compared with competing products or services that serve the same purpose. When considering a product, the entire life cycle of that product should be assessed. In addition to this policy, the city will create procedures to help departments make the most sustainable purchases.

It was decided that a more effective method of reducing waste would be to implement a single-stream recycling program. This decreased the need to collect garbage from twice a week to once a week. The city has seen 20% reduction in trash production since the program was introduced. Commercial Recycling Since the first edition of Clearwater Greenprint in 2011, the city of Clearwater’s Solid Waste and Recycling Department has provided education to commercial businesses in the forms of waste audits, educational posters, and presentations. This Clearwater Greenprint also suggested that the city should propose an ordinance to mandate recycling by commercial establishments. However, the global recycling market is vastly different than it was 10 years ago and mandating commercial recycling is not feasible for the city at this time. To re- establish robust and secure recycling programs, the city is focusing on improving the quality of its residential and commercial recycling programs rather than solely the quantity of materials at this time.

Categorization of the relative cost and benefit of the Education and Awareness Core Topic Strategies is provided in Figure II.2.- Administrative and Social Strategies. Strategies in this graphic represent a grouping of Strategies considered to be within similar range of cost to implement. In addition to Education and Awareness, the graphic includes strategies from Green Energy and Buildings, Livability, Local Food, and Green Economy. Strategies within the Education and Awareness Core Topic are largely limited by budgetary allocation and staff hours and consist of programming and data management. The proposed strategies assume the city of Clearwater’s willingness to establish programs, create and maintain databases, launch information collection campaigns, and take other necessary measures to implement the actions described in this section. Feasibility of implementation would be established after budget and hour allocation is determined by staff. Once this occurs, metrics such as number of attendees, number of registrants, attendee demographics, number of downloads, clicks, or website traffic may be used to gauge the success of activities.

Categorization of the relative cost and benefit of the Transportation Core Topic Strategies is provided in Figure II.3.- Transportation Strategies. For Implementation and Measurement Methodologies in this Core Topic it is assumed that sufficient permissions to alter county, state, and federal roads will be attained from the appropriate governing agencies and that work carried out will be consistent with other governing documents, including the city’s existing Complete Streets Plan. Major limitations to implementation of Strategies within this Core Topic are eliciting widespread behavioral change for use of alternative modes of transportation to achieve Vehicle Miles Travelled (VMT) reduction targets, and anticipated major structural changes, including adoption of electric vehicles, remote work, or autonomous vehicles.

Livability The following section provides the Implementation and Measurement Methodologies for Livability Core Topic Strategies. Categorization of the relative cost and benefit of the Livability Core Topic Strategies is provided in Figure II.2.- Administrative and Social Strategies. Similar to the Green Energy and Buildings Core Topic area, Strategies within the Livability Core Topic area pivot on the assumption that the approval process for each project is informed by its financial feasibility (“project pro-forma”) as well as fiscal impact analyses under two conditions: one with the proposed climate change mitigation measure and one without. In addition to this, it is also assumed that the city will measure equity and inclusion. Though this consideration applies to all Strategies within the Clearwater Greenprint 2.0, issues of equity and inclusion are particularly relevant for those of the Livability Core Topic area. This is because most of the area’s Strategies involve improvements that typically occur in small geographic areas (e.g., new construction and building retrofits) and are likely to affect historically under-resourced populations. To measure equity, the city will define measures that quantify the qualitative aspects of livability. To this end, factors such as aesthetics, and emotion may be monitored by way of routine survey of the city’s stakeholders (e.g., residents, workers, and business-owners). Surveys may ask stakeholders to rate their levels of satisfaction with city services, or the physical condition of the built environment. A. Continue to provide for mixed-use development in livable, transit-oriented neighborhoods • Coordinate implementation with Strategies 5.6, 6.4, 6.6, 6.8, and 6.12. B.

Globally, economic and population growth continued to be the most important drivers of increases in CO2 emissions from fossil fuel combustion. Changes in many extreme weather and climate events have been observed since about 1950. Some of these changes have been linked to human influences, including a decrease in cold temperature extremes, an increase in warm temperature extremes, an increase in extreme high sea levels and an increase in the number of heavy precipitation events in a number of regions”. In short, the Earth is already responding to climate change drivers introduced by mankind. Temperatures and Extreme Events are Increasing Globally Surface temperature is projected to rise over the 21st century under all assessed emission scenarios. It is very likely that heat waves will occur more often and last longer, and that extreme precipitation events will become more intense and frequent in many regions. The ocean will continue to warm and acidify, and global mean sea level to rise. Changes in many extreme weather and climate events have been observed since about 1950. Some of these changes have been linked to human influences, including a decrease in cold temperature extremes, an increase in warm temperature extremes, an increase in extreme high sea levels and an increase in the number of heavy precipitation events in a number of regions.iii Appendix III.- Climate Change Science DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Appendix III.- Climate Change Science ( Page III.2 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 Figure 1 Observations and other indicators of a changing global climate systemiv DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Appendix III.- Climate Change Science ( Page III.3 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 Figure 2 Change in average surface temperature (a) and change in average precipitation (b) based on multi-model mean projections for 2081–2100 relative to 1986–2005 under the RCP2.6 (left) and RCP8.5 (right) scenarios. Climate Risks Climate change is projected to undermine food security. Due to projected climate change by the mid-21st century and beyond, global marine species redistribution and marine biodiversity reduction in sensitive regions will challenge the sustained provision of fisheries productivity and other ecosystem services. For wheat, rice and maize in tropical and temperate regions, climate change without adaptation is projected to negatively impact production for local temperature increases of 2°C or more above late 20th century levels, although individual locations may benefit. Global temperature increases of ~4°C or more above late 20th century levels, combined with increasing food demand, would pose large risks to food security globally. Climate change is projected to reduce renewable surface water and groundwater resources in most dry subtropical region, intensifying competition for water among sectors. Until mid-century, projected climate change will impact human health mainly by exacerbating health problems that already exist. Throughout the 21st century, climate change is expected to lead to increases in ill-health in many regions and especially in DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Appendix III.- Climate Change Science ( Page III.4 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 developing countries with low income, as compared to a baseline without climate change. Health impacts include greater likelihood of injury and death due to more intense heat waves and fires, increased risks from foodborne and waterborne diseases and loss of work capacity and reduced labor productivity in vulnerable populations. Risks of undernutrition in poor regions will increase. Risks from vector-borne diseases are projected to generally increase with warming, due to the extension of the infection area and season, despite reductions in some areas that become too hot for disease vectors. In urban areas climate change is projected to increase risks for people, assets, economies and ecosystems, including risks from heat stress, storms and extreme precipitation, inland and coastal flooding, landslides, air pollution, drought, water scarcity, sea level rise and storm surges. These risks are amplified for those lacking essential infrastructure and services or living in exposed areas. Rural areas are expected to experience major impacts on water availability and supply, food security, infrastructure and agricultural incomes, including shifts in the production areas of food and non-food crops around the world. Climate change is projected to increase displacement of people. Populations that lack the resources for planned migration experience higher exposure to extreme weather events, particularly in developing countries with low income. Climate change can indirectly increase risks of violent conflicts by amplifying well-documented drivers of these conflicts such as poverty and economic shocks.v Regional and Local Impacts Because the impacts of climate change vary geographically. The Tampa Bay region is frequently ranked as an area with the most vulnerability to climate change risks. These risks include increased intensity of extreme weather events, heat, precipitation, sea level, and vector-borne diseases. Numbers in ovals (Figure 3) indicate regional totals of climate change publications from 2001 to 2010, based on the Scopus bibliographic database for publications in English with individual countries mentioned in title, abstract or key words (as of July 2011). These numbers provide an overall measure of the available scientific literature on climate change across regions; they do not indicate the number of publications supporting attribution of climate change impacts in each region. Studies for polar regions and small islands are grouped with neighboring continental regions.vi DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Appendix III.- Climate Change Science ( Page III.5 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 Figure 3 Climate impacts around the world. Symbols indicate categories of attributed impacts, the relative contribution of climate change (major or minor) to the observed impact and confidence in attribution. Greenhouse Gas Emissions Must be Reduced Limiting risks across Reasons For Concern (a) would imply a limit for cumulative emissions of CO2 (b) which would constrain annual GHG emissions over the next few decades (c). Panel A reproduces the five Reasons For Concern. Panel b (Figure 4) links temperature changes to cumulative CO2 emissions (in GtCO2) from 1870. They are based on Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 simulations (pink plume) and on a simple climate model (median climate response in 2100), for the baselines and five mitigation scenario categories (six ellipses). Panel c shows the relationship between the cumulative CO2 emissions (in GtCO2) of the scenario categories and their associated change in annual GHG emissions by 2050, expressed in percentage change (in percent GtCO2-eq per year) relative to 2010. The ellipses correspond to the same scenario categories as in Panel b, and are built with a similar method.vii DocuSign Envelope ID: 3F83C99F-5800-443A-80BA-65801049E6BDDocuSign Envelope ID: 7E3AA4BD-3E9F-4C2C-A9E9-ECC5A7622938 Appendix III.- Climate Change Science ( Page III.6 ) Clearwater Greenprint 2.0 The recent and massive buildup of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere is conceivably even more extraordinary than changes observed thus far regarding temperature, sea level, and snow cover in the Northern hemisphere in that current levels greatly exceed recorded precedent going back much further than the modern temperature record. Anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions have increased since the pre-industrial era driven largely by economic and population growth. From 2000 to 2010 emissions were the highest in history. Historical emissions have driven atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide to levels that are unprecedented in at least the last 800,000 years, leading to an uptake of energy by the climate system.viii Figure 4: The relationship between risks from climate change, temperature change, cumulative carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and changes in annual greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050.

Since many of the major sources of greenhouse gas emissions are directly or indirectly controlled through local policies, local governments have a strong role to play in reducing greenhouse gas emissions within their boundaries. Through proactive measures around land use patterns, transportation demand management, energy efficiency, green building, and waste diversion, local governments can dramatically reduce emissions in their communities. In addition, local governments are primarily responsible for the provision of emergency services and the mitigation of natural disaster impacts. While this Plan is designed to reduce overall emissions levels, as the effects of climate change become more common and severe, local government adaptation policies will be fundamental in preserving the welfare of residents and businesses. i.

Described below are the terms and conditions for providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the DocuSign system. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to this Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure (ERSD), please confirm your agreement by selecting the check-box next to ‘I agree to use electronic records and signatures’ before clicking ‘CONTINUE’ within the DocuSign system. Getting paper copies At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available electronically to you by us. You will have the ability to download and print documents we send to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you elect to create a DocuSign account, you may access the documents for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee. You may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below. Withdrawing your consent If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures electronically is described below. Consequences of changing your mind If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format, and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such paper notices or disclosures.
