At the City’s election, <br />City may deduct the reimbursable amount from any balance owing to Consultant. <br />7. Status of Consultant.

When prevailing wage rules are applicable, the following provisions <br />apply: <br />8.1. No less than the general prevailing rate of per diem wages for holidays and <br />overtime work, for each craft, classification or type of worker needed to execute <br />the Services under this Agreement will be paid to all workers, laborers and <br />mechanics employed in the execution of the Services by the Consultant or any <br />subcontractor doing or contracting to do any part of the Services. <br />8.2.
