Termination of Contract
Termination is an action taken by the contracting agency to cancel a contract. Federal-aid contracts exceeding $10,000 must contain suitable provisions for termination by the LG. The provisions must identify the manner by which the termination will be effected and the basis for settlement. There may be a number of grounds to warrant termination, including termination for cause, termination for convenience and termination for default. Prior to termination of a federal-aid contract for which TxDOT concurred in the award, the LG shall consult with and receive the concurrence of TxDOT. Details regarding specific termination of contract provisions that must be followed and properly documented are found in
