ISSUE AND BACKGROUND:
The city entered into a Resurfacing Project Contract with Donelson Construction Company, LLC., on July 21, 2021. Article XIII of this contract authorizes the city to suspend the work of this contract, with or without cause, for a period not to exceed 90 days and to terminate the contract, with or without cause. On or around August 26, 2021, public works notified Donelson Construction Company, LLC., that it found the work to be unsatisfactory and that all future work was suspended. This notice also advised that the city would terminate the contract as of a certain date. No work has been done on the project since this notice was sent. The resolution formally ratifies the notice suspending the work previously sent by community development and terminates the contract as provided by Article XIII of said contract and reserves all rights and remedies afforded to it under the contract.
