17. Force Majeure.

Commission Regular Meeting · 2026-05-07 · agenda_item

This agenda item concerns a Force Majeure clause for a contract with Santa Rosa County. The clause addresses delays caused by events beyond the Grantee's control, such as acts of God or wars. It outlines notification requirements for the Grantee if a delay occurs and specifies that no additional payment or damages will be awarded for such delays, only potential time extensions. The county may choose to accept partial performance, seek alternative sources, or terminate the agreement if delays significantly impact its value. This item is currently under review by the Commission. While no specific construction project is detailed, the contract itself implies potential needs for construction services, material suppliers, and administrative support if delays lead to alternative sourcing or project adjustments. Businesses that provide construction, materials, or related services should monitor this item as it could influence future contract opportunities.
