B. Liquidated Damages <br /> 1. City and Contractor recognize that time is of the essence of this Agreement <br /> and that City will suffer financial loss in the form of lost revenues, contract <br /> administration expenses (including project management and consultants' <br /> expenses), delay and loss of public use, if the Work is not completed within <br /> the time specified in paragraph III.A.1 above plus any extensions thereof <br /> allowed in accordance with the Contract documents. Consistent with Section <br /> 00700 (General Conditions), Contractor and City agree that because of the <br /> nature of the Project, it would be impractical or extremely difficult to fix the <br /> amount of actual damages incurred by City because of a delay in completion <br /> of the Work. <br /> 2. Accordingly, City and Contractor agree that Contractor shall pay City <br /> $3,000.00 (Three thousand and 00/100 Dollars) for each Day that expires <br /> after the time specified in Paragraph III.A.1 of this Section 00520 for <br /> Contractor to achieve Substantial Completion, until such date as contractor <br /> achieves Substantial Completion. <br /> C. Liquidated damages for delay shall only cover and be in lieu of the actual damages <br /> suffered by City as a result of delay referenced above. Liquidated damages shall <br /> not cover the cost of completion of the Work, damages resulting from defective <br /> work, cost of temporary replacement facilities, damages suffered by others who <br /> then seek to recover their damages from City (for example, delay claims of other <br /> contractors or subcontractors), and defense costs thereof. <br /> IV.
