Description

The Construction Contract Oregon for Public in Harris outlines the legal agreement between a contractor and owner for a construction project. Key features include a defined scope of work, work site specifications, and a requirement for permits to be obtained by the contractor. The contract stipulates that the contractor is not liable for soil conditions at the work site and that any additional site work shall be at the owner's expense. It also requires the contractor to maintain various types of insurance and ensures the owner provides a boundary survey and title opinion before construction begins. Change orders must be documented in writing, specifying any alterations to the project, and the owner's payment obligations for those changes. The payment structure can be either cost-plus or fixed fee, and late payments incur a fee and potential collection costs. The warranty is limited to one year for workmanship defects, while material warranties are assigned to the owner. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants involved in construction projects, as it provides a clear framework for obligations and protections related to public construction contracts.
