Also, in addressing a question of first impression, the court held a failure to notify and afford an opportunity to cure alleged defects prevented offsets and recovery for corrective efforts. In the case of Conway Construction Co. v. City of Puyallup, Washington, Case No. 98753-0, July 8, 2021, the city engaged the contractor to build the nation's first arterial roadway with pervious concrete. In early 2016, the city notified the contractor of defective work and unsafe working conditions. The contractor disputed the allegations, but also tried to remedy the alleged breaches. Several times the contractor asked to meet and discuss the city's concerns, but the city's engineer refused to meet. In March 2016, the city terminated the contractor for default. After termination, the city alleged more defective concrete panels needed to be replaced. |
