or above real property of or for a county housing authority, including the installing, or attaching
of any article of tangible personal property. The Owner is a tax-exempt entity under the laws of

subject to sales or use taxes. However, according to WAC 458-17001, a government contractor
is a prime or subcontractor who constructs, installs, or improves real property of or for a county
or city housing authority. Government contracting activities include constructing, repairing,
decorating, or improving new or existing buildings or other structures, including installing or
attaching tangible personal property. Government contracting also includes clearing or moving
earth. Gross income received by prime or subcontractors from such construction is subject to
B&O tax under the Government Contracting tax classification. Contractors engaged in
government contracting should not issue a resale certificate on their purchases of materials.

Prime or subcontractors who construct, install, or improve real property of or for a county or city
housing authority are "consumers" as defined in RCW 82.04.190. Consumers are required to
pay the retail sales tax or use tax upon all purchases of materials and other personal property
installed applied, attached, or otherwise incorporated into government contracting work. A
prime contractor who purchases and furnishes materials to a subcontractor for a government
project is liable for the retail sales tax or use tax on the value of those materials. The use tax
applies upon the value of all materials, equipment, and other tangible personal property
purchased at retail, acquired as a bailee or donee, or manufactured or produced by the contractor
for commercial or industrial use in performing government contracting and upon which no retail
sales tax has been paid by the contractor, its bailor or donor. Therefore, the use tax applies to all
property provided by the housing authority to the contractor for installation or inclusion in the
contract work as well as to all provided tooling."

4.8 Neither A/E's authority to act under this Article 4 nor elsewhere in the Contract

Owner's prior payments have been made. THE SUBMISSION OF THIS APPLICATION BY
THE CONTRACTOR CONSTITUTES A CERTIFICATION BY THE CONTRACTOR THAT
THE CONTRACT IS CURRENT ON THE PROGRESS SCHEDULE, unless otherwise noted
on the application. If the Contractor believes it is entitled to payment for Work performed
during the prior calendar month in addition to the agreed-upon amount, the Contractor may,
within the same five-day time period, submit to the Owner a separate written payment request
specifying the exact additional amount due, the category in the Schedule of Values in which the
payment is due,the specific Work for which the additional amount is due, and why the additional

Prevailing Wages." Approved copies of the "Statement of Intent to Pay Prevailing Wages"must
be posted where workers can easily read them.

properly to Subcontractors or for labor, materials, or equipment, (4) reasonable evidence that the
Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum, (5) damage to the Owner

that the Owner can fully utilize the Work (or the designated portion thereof) for the use for
which it is intended. All Work other than incidental corrective or punchlist work and final
cleaning shall have been completed. The Work is not Substantially Complete if any system or
part affected by the Work is not usable or if utilities affected by the Work are not connected and
operating normally. The fact that the Owner may use or occupy the Work or designated portion
thereof does not indicate that the Work is Substantially Complete, nor does such occupation toll
or change any liquidated damages due to the Owner.
9.5.2 Immediately before partial or complete occupancy, the Owner will
schedule an inspection tour of the area to be occupied. The Owner and/or A/E and Contractor
will jointly tour the area and record items still remaining to be finished or corrected. The

for Final Completion as a part of the Contract Sum, notwithstanding their not being recorded

Payment shall not become due until after Final Completion. The Contractor shall submit:

indebtedness connected with the Work for which the Owner or its property might in any way be
responsible or encumbered, have been paid or otherwise satisfied;
9.6.2 Consent of surety, if any,to final payment;
9.6.3 Certificate evidencing that insurance required by the Contract Documents
to remain in force after Final Payment is currently in effect and will not be cancelled or allowed

why the insurance will not be renewable to cover the period required by the Contract
Documents;
