CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION
THIS CONTRACT, made and entered into on JULY 9, 2019, by and between the
CITY OF ASPEN, Colorado, hereinafter called the "City", and ARROWHEAD
TRAILS INC., hereinafter called the"Contractor".
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and Contracts herein contained,
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. Construction of Project. Contractor agrees to furnish all labor, materials,
tools, machinery, equipment, temporary utilities, transportation and any other facilities
needed therefor, and to complete in a good, workmanlike and substantial manner the
Project as described in the Scope of Work and/or Proposal appended hereto as Exhibit
"A" which is incorporated herein as if fully set forth (the "Project").
2. Plans and Specifications; Compliance with Laws. The Project is to be
constructed and completed in strict conformance with the Scope of Work and/or Proposal
appended hereto for the same approved in writing by the parties hereto. The Project shall
also be constructed and completed in strict compliance with all laws, ordinances, rules,
regulations of all applicable governmental authorities, and the City of Aspen Procurement
Code, Title 4 of the Municipal Code, including the approval requirements of Section 4-
08-040. Contractor shall apply for and obtain all required permits and licenses and shall
pay all fees therefor and all other fees required by such governmental authorities.
3. Payments to Contractor. In consideration of the covenants and Contracts
herein contained being performed and kept by Contractor, including the supplying of all
labor, materials and services required by this Contract, and the construction and
completion of the Project, City agrees to pay Contractor a sum not to exceed Sixty Seven
Thousand Six Hundred Seventy Five ($67,675.00) Dollars or as shown on Exhibit
«A»
4. Commencement and Completion. Contractor agrees to commence work
hereunder immediately upon execution hereof, to prosecute said work thereafter diligently
and continuously to completion, and in any and all events to substantially complete the
same not later than December 31, 2019, subject to such delays as are permissible under
the"Extension of Time for Completion" section of this Contract.
5. Payment of Bills and Charges. Contractor shall pay promptly all valid bills
and charges for material, labor, machinery, equipment or any other service or facility used
CC5-97 I.doc Page: I
in connection with or arising out of the Project, and shall obtain periodic releases from all
subcontractors and material suppliers supplying labor or materials to the Project
concurrently with Contractor's delivering any payment to such subcontractors and
material suppliers. Contractor shall indemnify and hold City and City's officers,
employees, agents, successors and assigns free and harmless against all expenses and
liability suffered or incurred in connection with the claims of any such subcontractors or
material suppliers, including but not limited to court costs and attorney's fees resulting or
arising therefrom; provided that Contractor shall be excused from this obligation to the
extent that City is in arrears in making the payments to Contractor. Should any liens or
claims of lien be filed of record against the Property, or should Contractor receive notice
of any unpaid bill or charge in connection with construction of the Project, Contractor
shall immediately either pay and discharge the same and cause the same to be released of
record, or shall furnish City with the proper indemnity either by title policy or by
corporate surety bond in the amount of 150% of the amount claimed pursuant to such
lien.
6. Releases. Contractor shall, if requested by City, before being entitled to
receive any payment due, furnish to City all releases obtained from subcontractors and
material suppliers and copies of all bills paid to such date, properly receipted and
identified, covering work done and the materials furnished to the Project and showing an
expenditure of an amount not less than the total of all previous payments made hereunder
by City to Contractor.
7. Hierarchy of Project Documents. This Contract and the Proposal or Scope
of Work appended hereto as Exhibit "A" are intended to supplement one another. In
case of conflict, however, this Contract shall control both.
S. Changes in the Work. Should the City at any time during the progress of
the work request any modifications, alterations or deviations in, additions to, or omissions
from this Contract or the Proposal/Scope of Work, it shall be at liberty to do so, and the
same shall in no way affect or make void this Contract; but the amount thereof shall be
amortized over the remaining term of this Contract and added to or deducted, as the case
may be, from the payments set forth in Paragraph 3 above by a fair and reasonable
valuation, based upon the actual cost of labor and materials. This Contract shall be
deemed to be completed when the work is finished in accordance with the original
Proposal or Scope of Work as amended or modified by such changes, whatever may be
the nature or the extent thereof. The rule of practice to be observed in fulfillment of this
paragraph shall be that, upon the demand of either City or Contractor, the character and
valuation of any or all changes, omissions or extra work shall be agreed upon and fixed in
writing, signed by City and Contractor, prior to performance.
9. Contractor's Failure to Perform. Should Contractor, at any time during
the progress of the work, refuse or fail to supply sufficient material or workmen for the
expeditious progress of said work or fail to perform any other provisions of this Contract,
City may, upon giving notice in writing to Contractor as provided herein and upon
CC5-97 I.doc Page:2
Contractor's failure to remedy any such failure within 3 days from receipt of such notice,
terminate this Contract and provide the necessary material and workmen to finish the
work and may enter upon the Property for such purpose and complete said work. The
expense thereof shall be deducted from the payments remaining under Paragraph 3 above,
or if the total cost of the work to City exceeds the amount of such remaining payments,
Contractor shall pay to City upon demand the amount of such excess in addition to any
and all other damages to which City may be entitled. In the event of such termination,
City may take possession of all materials, equipment and appliances belonging to
Contractor upon or adjacent to the Property upon which said work is being performed and
may use the same in the completion of said work. Such termination shall not prejudice or
be exclusive of any other legal rights which City may have against Contractor.
10. Extension of Time for Completion. Time is of the essence of this
Contract and Contractor shall substantially complete the work during the time provided
for herein. However, the time during which Contractor is delayed in said work by (a) the
acts of City or its agents or employees or those claiming under Contract with or
permission from City, or (b) the acts of God which Contractor could not have reasonably
foreseen and provided against, or (c) unanticipated stormy or inclement weather which
necessarily delays the work, or (d) any strikes, boycotts or obstructive actions by
employees or labor organizations and which are beyond the control of Contractor and
which it cannot reasonably overcome, or (e) the failure of City to make progress
payments promptly, shall be added to the time for completion of the work by a fair and
reasonable allowance. Contractor recognizes, however, that the site of the work is in the
Rocky Mountains at a high elevation where inclement whether conditions are common.
This fact has been considered by Contractor in preparing its Proposal and or agreeing to
the Scope of Work. Furthermore, Contractor shall have the right to stop work if any
payment, including payment for extra work, is not made to Contractor as provided in this
Contract. In the event of such nonpayment, Contractor may keep the job idle until all
payments then due are received.
11. Unforeseen Conditions. It is understood and agreed that Contractor,
before incurring any other expenses or purchasing any other materials for the Project,
shall proceed to inspect the work site and all visible conditions and that if, at the time of
inspection therefor, the Contractor finds that the proposed work is at variance with the
conditions indicated by the Proposal, Scope of Work, or information supplied by City, or
should Contractor encounter physical conditions below the surface of the ground of an
unusual nature, differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally
recognized as inherent in work of the character provided for in this Contract or inherent in
a work site located in the Rocky Mountains, Contractor shall so notify City, and City
shall at that time have the right and option to immediately cancel and terminate this
Contract or to instruct Contractor to continue the work and add the additional amount
attributable to such unforeseen conditions to the payments due Contractor as set forth
above.
It is agreed that in the event of any cancellation by City in accordance with this section,
Contractor shall be paid the actual costs of the work done prior to the time of
CC5-971.doc Pages 3
cancellation. In computing such costs, building permit fees, insurance and such financing
and title charges as are not refundable shall be included; provided that supervision time,
office overhead and profit shall not be included in such costs to be refunded to Contractor
by reason of such cancellation.
12. Acceptance by City. No payment hereunder nor occupancy of said
improvements or any part thereof shall be construed as an acceptance of any work done
up to the time of such payment or occupancy, but the entire work is to be subject to the
inspection and approval of City at the time when Contractor notifies City that the Project
has been completed.
13. Notice of Completion; Contractor's Release. City agrees to sign and file of
record within five (5) days after the substantial completion and acceptance of the Project
a Notice of Completion. If City fails to so record the Notice of Completion within said
five (5) day period, City hereby appoints Contractor as City's agent to sign and record
such Notice of Completion on City's behalf. This agency is irrevocable and is an agency
coupled with an interest. Contractor agrees upon receipt of final payment to release the
Project and property from any and all claims that may have accrued against the same by
reason of said construction. If Contractor faithfully performs the obligations of this
Contract on its part to be performed, it shall have the right to refuse to permit occupancy
of any structures by City or City's assignees or agents until the Notice of Completion has
been recorded and Contractor has received the payment, if any, due hereunder at
completion of construction, less such amounts as may be retained pursuant to mutual
Contract of City and Contractor under the provisions of Paragraph 3 above.
14. Indemnification. Professional agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
City, its officers, employees, insurers, and self-insurance pool, from and against all liability,
claims, and demands, on account of injury, loss, or damage, including without limitation
claims arising from bodily injury, personal injury, sickness, disease, death, property loss or
damage, or any other loss of any kind whatsoever, which arise out of or are in any manner
connected with this contract, to the extent and for an amount represented by the degree or
percentage such injury, loss, or damage is caused in whole or in part by, or is claimed to be
caused in whole or in part by, the wrongful act, omission, error, professional error, mistake,
negligence, or other fault of the Professional, any subcontractor of the Professional, or any
officer, employee, representative, or agent of the Professional or of any subcontractor of the
Professional, or which arises out of any workmen's compensation claim of any employee of
the Professional or of any employee of any subcontractor of the Professional. The
Professional agrees to investigate, handle, respond to, and to provide defense for and defend
against, any such liability, claims or demands at the sole expense of the Professional, or at
the option of the City, agrees to pay the City or reimburse the City for the defense costs
incurred by the City in connection with, any such liability, claims, or demands. If it is
determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that such injury, loss,
or damage was caused in whole or in part by the act, omission, or other fault of the City, its
officers, or its employees, the City shall reimburse the Professional for the portion of the
judgment attributable to such act, omission, or other fault of the City, its officers, or
employees.

insurance shall be in addition to any other insurance requirements imposed by this contract
or by law. The Contractor shall not be relieved of any liability, claims, demands, or other
obligations assumed pursuant to the terms of this Contract by reason of its failure to procure
or maintain insurance, or by reason of its failure to procure or maintain insurance in
sufficient amounts, duration, or types.
b. Contractor shall procure and maintain, and shall cause any subcontractor of
the Contractor to procure and maintain, the minimum insurance coverages listed in the

employee of the Contractor providing services to the City under this contract.
C. Except for any Contractor Liability insurance that may be required, the
policy or policies required above shall be endorsed to include the City of Aspen and the City
of Aspen's officers and employees as additional insureds. Every policy required above shall
be primary insurance, and any insurance carried by the City of Aspen, its officers or
employees, or carried by or provided through any insurance pool of the City of Aspen, shall
be excess and not contributory insurance to that provided by Contractor. No additional
insured endorsement to the policy required above shall contain any exclusion for bodily
injury or property damage arising from completed operations. The Contractor shall be solely
responsible for any deductible losses under any policy required above.
d. The certificate of insurance provided to the City of Aspen shall be
completed by the Contractor's insurance agent as evidence that policies providing the
required coverage, conditions, and minimum limits are in frill force and effect, and shall be
reviewed and approved by the City of Aspen prior to commencement of the contract. No

materially changed until at least thirty (30) days prior written notice has been given to the
City of Aspen.
e. In addition, these Certificates of Insurance shall contain the following
clauses:
Underwriters and issuers shall have no right of recovery or subrogation against the
City of Aspen, it being the intention of the parties that the insurance policies so
effected shall protect all parties and be primary coverage for any and all losses

may become liable for secondary or excess coverage, the City's underwriters and
insurers shall have no right of recovery or subrogation against the Contractor.

against the City of Aspen for payment of any premiums or for assessments under
any form of policy.

connection with the referenced project is done."

at least fifteen (15) days prior to a policy's expiration date except for any policy expiring on
the expiration date of this Contract or thereafter.
CC5-97 Ldoc Page:6
e. Failure on the part of the Contractor to procure or maintain policies
providing the required coverage, conditions, and minimum limits shall constitute a material
breach of contract upon which City may immediately terminate this contract, or at its
discretion City may procure or renew any such policy or any extended reporting period
thereto and may pay any and all premiums in connection therewith. All moneys so paid by
City shall be repaid by Contractor to City upon demand, or City may offset the cost of the
premiums against moneys due to Contractor from City.

and any endorsement thereto.

for by City as extra work under Paragraph 8 above. If, however, the estimated cost of
replacement of the work already completed by Contractor exceeds twenty (20%) percent
of the insured sum set forth in Paragraph 14 above, City shall have the option to cancel
this Contract and, in such event, Contractor shall be paid the reasonable cost, including
net profit to Contractor in the amount of ten (10%) percent, of all work performed by
Contractor before such cancellation.

SECTION 3 Project Approach
Arrowhead Trails, Inc. attended a non-mandatory walk-through of the Burlingame Loop Trail
Project#2019-50284 on Thursday, June 6th, 2019, from 10:00AM to 11:00 AM.
Arrowhead Trails, Inc. has specialized in natural surface trails since 1994, and constructed miles of
crusher fine specific trails throughout the Rocky Mountain Region.
The alignment proposed by the City of Aspen is within the parameters of other trails constructed by
Arrowhead Trails, Inc,although there are several considerations that must be addressed for this
project. The alignment is located on the perimeter of the Burlingame Subdivision that provides
employee housing to City of Aspen employees.
The following is a list of considerations and issues in which the contractor will have to determine
the best construction methods and solutions during the building process.
1. The locations of the material, crusher fines, staging areas are at either end of the project.
2. The distance in transporting the material is long and will require significant time and
resources and well as appropriate equipment to ensure a timely installation.
3. There are numerous irrigation controls,lines, and sprinkler heads to consider during the build.
4. The contractor will have to communicate with the property manager oon which controls,lines,
and sprikler heads can be removed or which ones stay.
5. Many of the sprinkler heads may be aobsolete. Water should not be poured on the new trail and
can affect the Maintenance Bond required by the project if damage from runoff is incurred.
6. Much of the excavation will be changed to hand digging in these areas to prevent damge to the
system that will stay in place.
7. The irrigation system appears to be obsolete in areas were vegetation has taken hold.
8. There are areas were the grades of the crusher fines trail exceed recommended grades for crusher
fines trails. These areas may experience more raveling of materials, or erosion during high volume
rain events. These areas may need extra attention by providing rolling grade changes. These areas
should not be included within the Maintenance Bond because the trail alignment is restricted in
order to obtain the connection of the loop.
9. Other areas where there are tight alignments between sidewalks and fences may restrict access in
excavations and material installation.
10. Equipment utilized on the project will be limited in tighly restricted areas and will increse the
time required to complete the project.
11. The width of the expected trail, 3.5 feet, is a restriction based on equipment size generally used
for crusher fines trail projects.
Arrowhead Trails, Inc.'s equipment to construct the trail ranges from 39" to 48" in width. Our
mini-excavators have expandable tracks and can be operated at a 39" track and blade width.
Excavation around irrigation equipment must be done by hand and Arrowhead Trails, Inc.
requests that all lines are well marked with paint by the property management in order to prevent
and unecessary damage to lines that will not be removed and kept in place.
Arrowhead Trails, Inc. will begin the Burlingame Loop Trail Project by inspecting all marked
irrigation lines and call for a Utility locate using 811 and any other utility information available.
Any alignment relocations can be addressed at this time.
Since time is of the essence in trail construction, ATI,would most likely begin trail construction
on the south terminus of the trail at the intersetion of Harmony Road and Paepke Road. This
area is more open and will be the closest to the stockpile of materials.
After walking the trail alignment,Arrowhead Trails, Inc. would like to propose the elimination
or reduction of rock walls required to build the trail. Rock walls will be utilized along the trail
only where necessary. These may include areas that need embankment or raise above obstacles.
Such areas would include trail above retension ponds, on steeper sideslopes where excavation is
limited, or around switchback turns.
ATI provided a cost per linear foot of rock retainage to help with an added cost reduction factor
in determining the constractor best suited to perform the installation of the trail.
The 3.5 feet width does incorporate additional construction considerations for Arrowhead
Trails, Inc's methodolgy of constrcuting the trail. Our main material transporting machine has
tracks that are 48" in width. This is at the disturbance maximum width and may cause an issue
with regards to the specifications provided.
This transporting machine, is a one-of-a-kind peice of equipment that can transport enough
material to install 20-25 linear feet at one mobilization. Our RTC, Rubber Track Carrier, is the
most important piece of equipment for our crusher fines trail installtion processes. It eliminates
excessive trips down the trail with materials, saves time, and reduces the amount and duration
of machine noises in and around home dwellings.
With this in mind, Arrowhead Trails, Inc. can attempt to narrow the desired tread by building
an access trail first width our 39"wide mini-excavators. As the material is transported with the
48" wide RTC, a bathtub can be constructed to accept the crusher fines materials with the
excavator. Excessive excavation will be reduced by utilizing excavated soils as the embankment
for the crusher fines trail bathtub. Excess excavation material will be disperse to promote
revegetation. Care will be taken to keep clean edges along the trail.
Arrowhead Trails, Inc's product is well within the parameters of the desired product that the
City of Aspen is requesting. ATI is asking that the City of Aspen consider the final product and
the expertise Arrowhead Trails, inc. can bring to the project, altough the limits of disturbance
may be wider than expected the final reclamation will address this issue.
Silt fence and waddles will be used where ATI deems it necessay. Much of our work is kept
clean with limited exposure to erosion. ATI will work in a linear construction method to keep
exposed soil limited. Delivery of the materials is crucial. ATI will work with the transporter so
that materials loads are dealt with in a timely manner and not over stocked in areas for long
periods of time. This is an important component in keeping a clean and efficient work site.
Arrowhead Trails, Inc. understands that the crusher fines materials will need to be installed,
shaped, and compacted in a timely manner to obtain the best results. Also, stock piles will
need to be kept small, especially during the construction of the northern most section of trail
where the stockpile location is within a parking area for residents.
In this location, a protective tarp or fabric will be used to underlay the materials delivered to
protect the natural environment from disturbance. This method was used in the construction
of the crusher fines trail on the east side of the ABC trail alignment Arrowhead Trails, Inc.
constructed in 2015.
Generally, installation of crusher fines needs to occur from the farthest point and work
backwards towards the stockpile of materials. For this reason, the starting point will be the
intersection of Harmony Road and Paepke Road until a terminus is reached somewhere near
to stockpiles.
Then, the installation will move to near the northern stockpile location, most likely to above
the switchback turn areas. Installation will work back towards the southern stockpile location
until the section docks with the previous section.
A vibratory compactor will be utilized as materials are laid and shaped. No materials will be
laid without compaction. Flagging tape will be installed to prevent the usage of nwely installed
crusher fines until setting occurs. Then the tape will be removed when ATI deems the trails
stable enough to use.
Next the excavation and installtion of the trail alignment connecting to the park and
Burlingame Gorge will begin and will also work backwards towrds the stockpile of materials.
Because of the switchback turns required and the difficulty of negotiating these turns with a
machine filled with crusher fines, a fall line access trail will need to be utilized in this area.
This access trail is common with construction in and around turns. This access trail will be
reclaimed after its use,but it is a neccessary companent to this project. The Rubber track
carrier as well as our articulated loader, Gehl, have rubber tracks and wheels and are gentle on
terrain. The areas can be seeded and strawed id necessary.
Some areas may require the use of our Gehl, front end loader to distribute materials. This
machine is 39" in width,but only carried enough material to install 4-6 linear feet of material
at one delivery. This would be excessive trips and should only be used when the RTC cannot.
Also, ATI owns a powered wheel barrow to reach small locations,but only carries enough
material for 1-2 linear feet, making it the least desirable unit to deliver materials to the site.
With all of these considerations, Arrowhead Trails, Inc. believe it can construct/install an
appropriately built crusher fines trail for the community,inless time, and less disturbance
than other contractors. We respect your consideration for the awarding of the project.
