for claims or damages arising from a Subcontractor’s performance of the subcontract.

prohibit the Contractor from incurring additional obligations of funds during investigation of the alleged
compliance breach and pending corrective action by the Contractor or a decision by COMMERCE to
terminate the contract. A termination shall be deemed a “Termination for Convenience” if it is
determined that the Contractor: (1) was not in default; or (2) failure to perform was outside of his or
her control, fault or negligence.
The rights and remedies of COMMERCE provided in this contract are not exclusive and are, in
addition to any other rights and remedies, provided by law.

Attachment A: Scope of Work
In May, 2024 the City of East Wenatchee formed a campus facilities committee consisting of the
Public Works Manager, Community Development Director, the Mayor, and three City Council
members. The purpose of this committee was to identify and rank the City’s short-, medium- and
long-term facility needs. The top identified need was to address the City’s aging HVAC system.
This Grant would fund the first major milestone of this process, being an Investment Grade
Energy Audit. This audit will evaluate all of City Hall’s critical systems, including lighting,
plumbing, building envelope, and control systems. This audit will evaluate the performance of
current equipment and quantify the investment and environmental value of the identified energy
efficiency measures. The City is utilizing Washington’s Department of Enterprise Services to act
as an owners representative throughout the process to assist with all phases of the project.
The findings of this Investment Grade Energy Audit will guide the City’s decisions for upgrades
to critical infrastructure. The City will follow the Department of Enterprise Service’s
methodology for Performance Based Contracting. This process will be completed in two steps –
a preliminary audit and an investment grade audit. The preliminary audit will consist of a surface
level evaluation of City Hall facilities by City Staff, DES, and the selected contractor from the
Energy Services Company. A tour of current facilities, operating schedule, utility billing
information, record drawings, and data collection as practical.
This exercise will be used to develop a scope of work for the investment grade audit. The
investment grade audit will provide a comprehensive evaluation of facilities, and be used to
guide decision making on how to best invest in the City’s energy systems.
The tasks identified for this project are to:
Task Deliverable Anticipated Completion
Date
Task 1. Gather Data and Identify a Baseline
City staff will gather existing energy use to develop a
baseline condition of associated costs and greenhouse
gas emissions for the building.

Task 2. Energy Audit
The City will hire an energy firm to perform an
assessment of the building and potential upgrades to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including but not
limited to heating, cooling, lighting, and insulation.
Audit will meet the requirements to be considered an
Investment Grade Energy Audit.
