MMCD does not have sample documents for “Supporting documentation", except those listed on the MMCD website.
MMCD does not have a subcontract template. Using the CCA-1 contract sounds like a good idea.
No, but we try to point out sections in the MMCD that might be relevant to the question.
The Contract Administrator is the interpreter of the Contract Documents, and the judge both parties to the Contract (GC 3.6.1). However, there are references in the General Conditions of the MMCD to Extra Work. Extra Work is defined in GC 7.1.3. Extra Work is covered in GC 8.0. The Contractor is invited to perform Extra Work by issuing a Contemplated Change Order or Field Memo.(GC 8.1.1).
Clearing refers to the removal of all vegetation, while grubbing is the removal of roots that may remain in the soil. This includes the removal of all logs, brush, and debris, as well as grinding and removal of stumps.
The MMCDA Document is a legal document which has specifications adopted by municipalities and incorporated into their bylaws. For this reason, all supplementaries are held separate from the original document itself so that in referencing the specifications, if a municipality or district has not approved the supplementaries, the original specifications are not "missing" from the document.
On the MMCD website you will see the menu heading "Resources". If you expand this selection you will see "Supplementary Updates" in the list of options. Supplementary updates for all editions are listed on this page.
If you have noticed an error in one of documents or have suggestions for improvement, please email to us at [email protected]
Many contractors have copies of the MMCD in order to: • familiarize themselves with the general conditions and contract terms used by many municipalities in BC • to respond to a bid opportunity which references the MMCD, but which has a tender package with specific contract drawings and supplementary clauses. Volume II contains the standard contract provisions; Volume I is a “User Guide” that helps to navigate and understand the contents of Volume I. Both volumes are available in electronic form, with a search function.
