Event Details

Class Description:  What is the purpose of obtaining a Payment and Performance Bond?  Why must Retainage be withheld from the contractor?  What do you do if a subcontractor or supplier files a claim against the bond and retainage?  What steps must you take before you can release the retainage to the contractor?  What is the impact on public agencies of Substitute House Bill 1555 approved by the Legislature last spring?  We will address these and many other issues through a combination of lecture, class interaction, and small group exercises.
