<br />Contractor agrees to comply with the City of Sunny Isles Beach's permitting requirements,
<br />including all licensing requirements associated with the Public Works Department.
<br />2.3 Unless expressly permitted or allowed by the Contract Documents, substitutions of
<br />materials, articles, systems, equipment, or other components of the Work will not be
<br />considered. Where substitutions are expressly permitted or allowed by the Contract Documents,
<br />the Contractor must demonstrate to both the City and the City's Representative that a

<br />of equipment identified in the Contract Documents. The City shall have no obligation to accept a
<br />proposed substitution and no substitution shall be allowed without the prior written approval from

<br />material and is subject to the City's approval before including flowable fill into the Work.
<br />2.5 Direct Purchase. The City is recognized by the State of Florida as being exempt
<br />from state sales tax and is therefore, qualified for an exemption from Florida and all other state
<br />sales taxes on the purchase of tangible property if certain criteria are met. The City may elect to
<br />realize savings of sales tax on selected material and equipment needed for use in this Project. The
<br />City will include this direct purchase provision and the Contractor agrees to administer it. See Rule
<br />12A-1.094 of the Florida Administrative Code, and Section 212.08(6), Florida Statutes. No
<br />additional compensation shall be added to the Agreement amount because of the service provided
<br />by the Contractor in the purchase of the material or capital equipment in the name of the City. All
