SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The City has various business taxes and fees with varying administrative rules for records retention,
appeal, penalties and interest provisions. With the adoption of the business & occupation (B&O) tax in
2014, the City is required to adopt a set of administrative rules, regarding the B&O tax, that are
consistent with model rules developed by the Association of Washington Cities for all local
governments with a B&O tax. The proposed ordinance will establish these administrative rules for B&O
taxes and will also extend to the administration of admissions, amusement devices, gambling, and
utilities taxes, as well as the per employee business license fees.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the proposed administrative rules regarding B&O taxes, administration of admissions,
amusement devices, gambling, and utilities taxes, as well as the per employee business license fees.

(second class cities); and RCW 35.27.370(9) (fourth class cities and towns), which
give municipalities the authority to license for revenue. In the absence of a legal
or constitutional prohibition, municipalities have the power to define taxation
categories as they see fit in order to respond to the unique concerns and

chapter to statutory or administrative rule changes do not mean state tax
statutes or rules promulgated by the Department of Revenue automatically
apply. This chapter is to provide administrative specific guidelines and provisions

the person by mail of the additional amount, which shall become due and shall
be paid within thirty (30) days from the date of the notice, or within such time as
the Administrator may provide in writing.

5‐26‐15 CANCELLATION OF PENALTIES AND INTEREST:
A. The Administrator may cancel any penalties and/or interest imposed
under RMC 5‐26‐14.A if the taxpayer shows that its failure to timely file or pay
the tax was due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect. Willful neglect is
6b. - Administrative Services Department

ORDINANCE NO. ________
19
presumed unless the taxpayer shows that it exercised ordinary business care and
prudence in making arrangements to file the return and pay the tax but was
nevertheless, due to circumstances beyond the taxpayer’s control, unable to file
or pay by the due date. The Administrator’s authority to waive or cancel
penalties and/or interest under this subsection shall extend to amounts already
paid and also includes any disputes currently pending. “Reasonable cause” may
include the following and other similar circumstances:
1. The return was filed on time, but was inadvertently mailed to another
agency or there was a delay or loss related to the postal service. The
Administrator may also cancel interest in this situation.
2. The delinquency was due to written erroneous information given the
taxpayer by the Department. The Administrator may also cancel interest in this
situation.
3. The delinquency was caused by the death or serious illness of the
taxpayer or his/her immediate family, or by the illness or death of his/her tax
preparer or a member of the tax preparer’s immediate family, prior to the filing
date.
4. The delinquency was caused by the unavoidable absence of the
taxpayer, prior to the filing date.
5. The delinquency was caused by the destruction, through no fault of the
taxpayer, by fire or other casualty of the taxpayer’s place of business or business
records.
6b. - Administrative Services Department

6. The taxpayer, prior to the time of filing the return, made timely
application to the Department, in writing, for proper forms and these forms
were not furnished in sufficient time to permit the completed return to be filed
and the tax paid before the delinquent date.
7. The delinquency was the result of an unforeseen and unintentional
circumstance, not immediately known to the taxpayer, caused by the
malfeasance or misconduct of the taxpayer’s employee or accountant.
8. The Administrator has reasonably determined that the taxpayer made
a good faith effort to comply with the provisions of this chapter.
9. The taxpayer inadvertently failed to file a tax return because of a good
faith belief that the taxpayer qualified for the filing exemption in RMC 5‐26‐6.D.
The Administrator has no authority to cancel any other penalties or to cancel
penalties for any other reason except as provided in subsection C of this section.
B. A request for cancellation of penalties and/or interest must be received by
the Administrator within thirty (30) days after the date the Department mails the
notice that the penalties and/or interest are due. The request must be in writing
and contain competent proof of all pertinent facts supporting a reasonable cause
determination. In all cases the burden of proving the facts rests upon the
taxpayer.

penalty imposed under RMC 5‐26‐14.A shall not apply.
5‐26‐17 TAXPAYER QUITTING BUSINESS – LIABILITY OF SUCCESSOR:
A. Whenever any taxpayer quits business, sells out, exchanges, or otherwise
disposes of his business or his stock of goods, any tax payable hereunder shall
become immediately due and payable. Such taxpayer shall, within ten (10) days
thereafter, make a return and pay the tax due.
B. Any person who becomes a successor shall become liable for the full
amount of any tax owing. The successor shall withhold from the purchase price a
sum sufficient to pay any tax due to the City from the taxpayer until such time

full of any tax due or a certificate that no tax is due; or

2. More than six (6) months have passed since the successor notified the
Administrator of the acquisition and the Administrator has not issued and
notified the successor of an assessment.

date granted by the Department, request a correction of the amount of the
assessment and a conference for review of the assessment. Interest and

determines that a tax assessment was too high or the delay in issuing a

the City Clerk with a copy to the Administrator no later than twenty (20) days

Municipal Court also has its collection contract with AllianceOne since 2005, established through a
competitive process conducted by King County District Court (KCDC) in 2003, and it has more favorable
terms and conditions than the city’s general collection contract through the state.
The proposed agreement will consolidate the two different existing collection contracts under one,
based on the more favorable terms and conditions of the Court Services contract.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize administration to enter into a combined five-year collection service contract with AllianceOne,
June 1, 2015 through May 31, 2020, for both the City’s general account receivables and Municipal Court
receivables, based on the fee schedule currently available to the Municipal Court.

Members of the Renton City Council

SUBJECT: Account Receivable Collection Service Contract
ISSUE
Should the City continue the collection service contract with AllianceOne for both Court and
general city accounts receivable collection?
BACKGROUND
Most of the city’s general accounts receivables are for grants and service fees that are collected
by Finance staff. There are certain accounts we sent to outside collection which primarily
consists of alarm registrations, false alarms, fire permits, returned checks, electronic home
detention, and insurance recoveries. The amount in collection at the end of September is
$83,400. The collection service contract with AllianceOne is “piggybacked” to the statewide
collection contract selected by the Department of Enterprise Services for all state agencies and
is available to local governments. AllianceOne was initially selected through a competitive
process in 2005, and again in 2012 as one of the four firms selected among 18 proposals. The
current contract is for four years, the State has an option to extend another four years to 2020.
Renton Municipal Court also has its collection contract with AllianceOne since 2005, established
through a competitive process conducted by King County District Court (KCDC) in 2003, and it
has different terms and conditions than the city’s general contracts. The KCDC agreement
expired in 2006 but AllianceOne continues to honor the terms and conditions of the agreement
which is more favorable (e.g. the current fee is 19% vs. 29.74% under State contract). In
addition to the more favorable service fees, the Court contract also includes pre-collection
compliant time-pay, and installment payment plans that allows debtors to better meet their
obligations. At the end of September 2014, 850 accounts have made payment arrangements
with AllianceOne. In addition to 24x7 access to online payment options, AllianceOne staffs 3
pay-stations in King County (Seattle, Kent, Tukwila) during business hours. At the end of
September 2014, Renton Municipal Court has 62,489 cases in collection with a combined
amount $11.7 million. The table below shows the breakdown by type of violation and recovery
rates.

Total 62,489 $16,812,030 $5,064,984 30% $11,747,046
During 2013-2014, AllianceOne partnered with Renton Municipal Court to develop a connection
with the State’s Judicial Information System (JIS) to allow updates to collection accounts by
posting payments directly into JIS. This automation project saves Court staff time to manually
update the accounts and provide more current account status. AllianceOne is the only agency
has this capability currently. In addition to this collaboration, AllianceOne also assisted the City
in reconciling the photo enforcement tickets outstanding which has been an area that is very
time consuming to do due to the lack of interface between American Traffic Solutions’ (ATS)
system with JIS.
STATUS AND RECOMMENDATION
As staff prepares for a request for proposal process, we reviewed Renton Municipal Court’s
collection results with that of statewide court systems and found that the collection rate of the
city’s infraction cases is 42% vs. the statewide average of 35% while the criminal cases
collection rate for the city is 20% same as statewide average. These numbers are generally
consistent with 2012, with statewide average improved slightly. As reported to the Finance
Committee in 2012, the low recovery rate in criminal cases is inherent to the ability to locate
offenders and their ability to pay. We believe the better collection results for our Court fines
are primarily due to close monitoring and active coordination of Renton Municipal Court with
the collection agency.
Based on the collection results, the newly implemented link to JIS system, and the customer
services provided to debtors (payment plan and convenient pay-station), we believe it would be
more efficient and effective for the City to continue the contract with AllianceOne, consolidate
city’s general collection with the Court under the more favorable terms, and add time-pay
options to general accounts as well.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize the Administration to enter into a combined five-year collection service contract with
AllianceOne, June 1, 2015 through May 31, 2020, for both the City’s general account
receivables and Municipal Court receivables, based on the fee schedule currently available to
the Municipal Court.

COLLECTION SERVICES AGREEMENT – Renton Page 4 of 11

paragraph extend to any claim, demand, and/or cause of action brought by or on
behalf of any of its employees, subcontractors or agents. CLIENT hereby agrees
to forever discharge, release, indemnify, defend and hold harmless
ALLIANCEONE, its related entities and divisions, and their officers, officials,
directors, employees, agents, successors, assigns, attorneys and insurers, from
and against any and all losses, damages, actions, causes of action, claims,

(f) The indemnification, protection, defense and save harmless obligations

9.0 Compensation and Method of Payment. For services provided pursuant to this
Agreement ALLIANCEONE shall be entitled to compensation as follows:
(a) For municipal court Accounts, Renton Municipal Court (the “COURT”) will
assess a court cost for ALLIANCEONE’s collection fee pursuant to RCW 3.02.045.
For other city Accounts, CLIENT will assess a cost for ALLIANCEONE’s
collection fee pursuant to RCW 19.16.500. CLIENT directs ALLIANCEONE to
perform the ministerial act of adding, and agrees ALLIANCEONE may add, this
cost to the Account balance based on the following schedule:
(i) A 19% add-on fee (0.1597 retained) for accounts that are aged less than
one year at assignment.
(ii) A 24% add-on fee (0.1935 retained) for accounts that are aged one to four
years at assignment.
(iii) A 29% add-on fee (0.2248 retained) for accounts that are aged four years
or older at assignment.
(iv) Previously-assigned accounts will remain at their existing rates.
(b) Partial Payments: Partial payments made on assigned Accounts shall be
remitted to CLIENT based upon the same pro rata formula applied to Accounts that
are paid in full. By way of illustration, and assuming a 19% add-on fee (15.97%
retained): $100 fine + 19% ($19) = $119 new balance to be collected; a $50
payment received would be remitted as follows: $42.01 to CLIENT; $7.99 to
ALLIANCEONE ($7.99 = 15.97% of $50).
(c) Interest on Unpaid Accounts: Unless otherwise instructed by CLIENT, upon
assignment to collection, interest shall accrue on unpaid Account amounts,
including court costs for collection fees, at the rate of 12% per annum. The interest
6c. - Administrative Services Department
recommends authorizing the Page 48 of 98
COLLECTION SERVICES AGREEMENT – Renton Page 5 of 11
shall be added to the Account by ALLIANCEONE, collected by ALLIANCEONE,
and remitted in full by ALLIANCEONE to CLIENT.
(d) Signal Management Services Program (Signal) for COURT Accounts: If
COURT desires to offer a time-payment program to defendants with non-delinquent
obligations, ALLIANCEONE will administer a monthly-payment collection service
(the Signal Management Services Program) for COURT. COURT will require
defendants wishing to participate in the program to fill out an application and
program implementation document in a form mutually agreed on by
ALLIANCEONE and COURT. COURT will assess as court costs for this service
and ALLIANCEONE will add such costs (also called “Service Fees”) to the
Accounts as follows:
(i) $15.00 Account Set-Up Fee: a one-time charge per obligor per court of
limited jurisdiction (fee charged only once while defendant remains in an
active Signal program, even should new cases from the same court be added
to the active program; setting up a new Signal program after a program has
been completed or discontinued requires another Set-up fee).
(ii) $ 4.75 Monthly Fee: one charge per defendant with one current case.
(iii)$ 8.25 Monthly Fee: one charge per defendant with two or more current
cases.
(iv) $ 7.75 Monthly Fee: one charge per defendant with one case who has at any
time been in “past due status”.
(v) $11.25 Monthly Fee: one charge per defendant with two or more cases who
has at any time been in “past due status”.
A defendant will not be subject to more than one monthly service fee identified
under (ii) through (v) of this subsection.
ALLIANCEONE will collect and retain all Signal Service Fees. Where a Signal
Account is assigned to full collection, Service Fees shall not be added to the
principal amount of the debt for purposes of calculating ALLIANCEONE’S
collection fee authorized in sub-paragraph (a) above, but will otherwise be
collected.
(e) Payment in Adjudication (PIA) Re-licensing Program for COURT Accounts: If
COURT desires to offer a time-payment program to allow defendants with
delinquent obligations to reinstate driving privileges while on the program,
ALLIANCEONE will administer a monthly-payment collection service (called
Payment in Adjudication, or “PIA”) for COURT. COURT will require defendants
wishing to participate in the PIA program to qualify for the program under
parameters mutually agreed to by COURT and ALLIANCEONE, with continued
participation in the program contingent on timely payment of required amounts and
other conditions as mutually agreed to by COURT and ALLIANCEONE. There is
no additional charge for this service above the collection fee assessed under this
section.
(f) Remittance and Reporting: Unless otherwise agreed, payments on Accounts
made to ALLIANCEONE will be remitted by ALLIANCEONE to CLIENT, minus
ALLIANCEONE’s portion, on a weekly basis by electronic transfer on the first
business day of the following week. Copies of remittance statements and deposit
6c. - Administrative Services Department
recommends authorizing the Page 49 of 98
COLLECTION SERVICES AGREEMENT – Renton Page 6 of 11
receipts shall be provided to the CLIENT electronically on the same date of the
fund transfer.
(g) Electronic Payments: CLIENT authorizes ALLIANCEONE to charge a party
making an electronic payment a reasonable transaction fee (currently ten dollars
($10), except for Signal Program payments, the fee is three dollars ($3)) for
processing the electronic payment unless prohibited by law. ALLIANCEONE will
provide a no-fee payment option, and advise the payer of the availability of a no-fee
option (no-fee options include, but are not limited to, mail-in payments, “check by
phone” payments, walk-in payments ).
(h) Payment Reversals: CLIENT acknowledges that, from time to time,
ALLIANCEONE might remit funds to CLIENT that might be reversed, because of
such things as non-sufficient fund checks or credit card payment reversals.
CLIENT will, upon notice from ALLIANCEONE, be responsible to reimburse
ALLIANCEONE for funds remitted to CLIENT that are subsequently reversed.
ALLIANCEONE will deduct such reversals on subsequent remittances to CLIENT.
10.0 Payments to CLIENT from Other Source. A payment made on behalf of a debtor
directly to CLIENT on an assigned Account will be promptly reported to
ALLIANCEONE by CLIENT. ALLIANCEONE will include such direct payment
in its next invoice, and deduct its share from remitted funds.
11.0 Negotiable Instruments. CLIENT authorizes ALLIANCEONE to endorse checks
or other instruments received in payment for the debts assigned payable to CLIENT
and deposit same into a trust account maintained by ALLIANCEONE on behalf of
CLIENT. CLIENT further authorizes ALLIANCEONE to send notices of dishonor
or other notices on CLIENT’s behalf (but in ALLIANCEONE’s name) for
dishonored instruments, to assess and collect any permissible dishonored instrument
fees, and to retain any recovered fees, whether such instruments were issued before
or after assignment of the Account.
12.0 Bankruptcy. Where an Account becomes subject to bankruptcy proceedings,
ALLIANCEONE will, at its option, either (a) cancel the Account back to CLIENT,
(b) file a claim on behalf of CLIENT in a Chapter 13 proceeding, or (c) suspend
activity during the bankruptcy proceeding (generally in Chapter 7 proceedings). If
CLIENT desires that ALLIANCEONE file a claim, ALLIANCEONE will retain the
“fee-added” amount of the Account whether or not that fee is allowed by the
bankruptcy court as an allowable claim (i.e., if the principal obligation is allowed,
but the collection fee is not, ALLIANCEONE will deduct its fee from the allowed
principal claim on a pro-rata basis). After a bankruptcy discharge order is entered,
CLIENT shall re-assess a Collection Fee to affected Account(s) that are not
discharged, so as to allow ALLIANCEONE to resume collection efforts.
13.0 Assignments/Subcontract. Neither party to this Agreement shall assign/subcontract
this Agreement, nor any interest, right or responsibility arising herein, without the
written consent of the other party. “Subcontract” shall mean any agreement
between ALLIANCEONE and a subcontractor or between the subcontractors that is
based on this Agreement, provided that the term “subcontract” does not include the
6c. - Administrative Services Department
recommends authorizing the Page 50 of 98
COLLECTION SERVICES AGREEMENT – Renton Page 7 of 11
purchase of support services not related to the subject matter of this Agreement or
supplies.
14.0 Waiver. The waiver by either party of a breach or violation of any provision of this
Agreement shall not operate as or be construed to constitute a waiver of any prior or
subsequent breach. Waiver of any right or power arising out of this Agreement
shall not be deemed waiver of any other right or power.
15.0 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be adjudged by any court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such judgment
shall not affect, impair or invalidate the remainder of this Agreement.
16.0 Notices. All notices, requests, demands, consents and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when
either (a) personally delivered; or (b) when deposited via certified mail, return
receipt requests, postage prepaid to the intended recipient set forth below:

seven (7) years after completion of all work on an account, sufficient records for
CLIENT to determine accounts assigned, notices, contacts (by person or by
automated calling), payment agreement, amount collected, and remittance made to
the CLIENT on such account.

notice to ALLIANCEONE
19.0 Non-discrimination. ALLIANCEONE, in its employment practice and in its

Agreement to the contrary, ALLIANCEONE is specifically granted the right in any

arbitration, or to prohibit a jury trial or class action. ALLIANCEONE is authorized
to exercise any right CLIENT might have to call or contact any paging service,
cellular telephone service, specialized mobile radio service, or other radio common

manually or by automated means, and using a pre-recorded or artificial voice. To

of CLIENT.
22.0 Calling Wireless, Etc. Numbers. CLIENT recognizes that ALLIANCEONE cannot
contact any telephone number assigned to a paging service, cellular telephone
service, specialized mobile radio service, or other radio common carrier service, or
any service for which the called party is charged for the call, using an automated
dialer or a pre-recorded or artificial voice (the “Restricted Calls”), unless the owner
of such wireless device has given prior express consent. CLIENT provides no
warranties whatsoever of the contact information provided, and ALLIANCEONE
shall ascertain, by itself, the contact information is consistent and in accordance with
the Telephone Consumer Protection Act for debtor prior to making any Restricted
Calls. Any violation of this provision is a material breach of this agreement.
23.0 Compliance with Law. In addition to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act
identified in subsection 22 above, ALLIANCEONE shall handle and process all

be entitled to any indirect, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages
against the other, including but not limited to damages described as lost profits or
sales, or loss of reputation. In all cases except those involving the claims of third
parties, or failure to remit amounts collected and/or due for services, and to the
extent any claim does not assert the claim of a third party or failure to remit
amounts collected and/or due for services, neither party's aggregate damages for

interest in the other Party’s Intellectual Property as a result of this Agreement
except the rights to use the other Party’s Intellectual Property for the purpose of
carrying out their respective obligations under this Agreement.
(c) During the term of this Agreement (including any ramp-down or termination-of
service-period), each Party hereby grants the other Party a non-exclusive, non-
transferable, royalty-free license to its Intellectual Property for the sole purpose of,
and to the extent necessary for, performing their respective obligations under this
Agreement. Neither Party shall make any other use of the other Party’s Intellectual
Property.
(d) Neither party, in the performance of this Agreement, will infringe the

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
In November 2014, the City adopted a moratorium on accepting applications for residential
development within the Commercial Arterial (CA) zone and the Residential Multi-Family (RMF) zones.
Staff has been engaged in a work program to recommend potential zoning amendments to resolve
issues identified at the adoption of the moratorium. However, the work will not be complete before the
moratorium is set to expire. It is recommended that another moratorium on applications for residential
development in the CA and RMF zones be adopted to allow adequate time for staff work to be
completed. It is anticipated that work will be complete with the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan
update, which is anticipated to be complete by June 30, 2015.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a resolution establishing a moratorium on accepting applications for residential development
within the Commercial Arterial (CA) zone and the Residential Multi-Family (RMF) zones; and calling for a
public hearing within 60 days of adoption.

SUMMARY OF ACTION:
The existing roof on the building in which Wells 1, 2 and 3 are located is nearing the end of its useful
life and several leaks have developed. The Maintenance Services Division is concerned that water
penetrating through the roof will contact the electrical control equipment, resulting in an electrical fire,
which could place wells RW-1, RW-2 and RW-3 out of service for an indeterminate amount of time.
The Water Utility wants to enter into a work order to Job Order Contract CAG-13-149 with Forma
Construction Company, in the amount of $87,379.40, to remove and dispose of the existing metal roof
and install a new standing seam metal roof.
A budget adjustment of $30,000 is needed to increase the project budget from $65,000 to $95,000 in
order to cover the construction contract of $87,379.40 with the remaining $7,620.60 for contingencies
and staff project administration cost. The Water Utility requests approval of the transfer of $30,000
from the approved 2015 Capital Improvement Program Emergency Response Projects budget
(425.455265) to the Wells 1, 2 and 3 Building Roof Replacement Project budget (425.455603). The
budget adjustment will be included in the next budget adjustment ordinance.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the transfer of $30,000 from the approved 2015 Capital Improvement Program Emergency
Response Projects budget to increase the budget for Wells 1, 2 and 3 Building Roof Replacement
Project, and approve Job Order Contract (JOC) Work Order with Forma Construction Company (CAG-13-
149), in the amount of $87,379.40, for roof replacement.

General Notes
The attached installation details are intended
to be a design aid and do not depict all
situations. Modifications are the
responsibility of the designer/user and
should take into account climate conditions
such as wind and snow, governing code
requirements, and the actual usage and
maintenance ofthe structure.
Flashings:
Where possible, flashings should be lapped
away from prevailing winds. Certain
flashings should be supported ifit is likely
that equipment (ladder, etc.) will be used
against them or if foot traffic is anticipated.
Check with AEP Span any time you intend
to specify a prefinished flashing in a gauge
or finish different than the roof panels. It is
good practice to specify that all flashings be
ofthe same material (gauge, color, finish) as
the roofpanels to ensure long-term
durability. Field-painted flashings rarely
equal the durability and color fastness of
factory baked-on paint systems. The
enclosed details have minimized the use of
exposed fasteners where possible. The
edges of flashings have also been shown
hemmed to strengthen and to minimize the
exposure of cut edges.
Flashing design and fabrication is generally
the responsibility of the contractor. For
convenience, we have provided some
flashing drawings on our website at
http://www.aepspan.com/roof/prodDetai ladO
8.html?id=35. Applicable Design Span® hp
flashing part numbers are referenced within
this installation guide.
Substrates:
Design Span® hp roofing panels can be used
over solid substrates or over spaced
supports.
Slope Requirements:
Panels should be used on slopes of3:12 or
greater.
Panel Attachment:
Consult the Design Span® hp fastener
attachment schedule or contact your AEP
Span representative for proper clip spacing
and fastener size, type, and quantities to
meet the project's wind uplift (negative)
load requirements. The details in this guide
show two fasteners per clip. A minimum of
two fasteners is always recommended
although three fasteners may be required
based on panel load requirements.
Condensation, Insulation, & Ventilation:
It is the designer's responsibility to
determine the need and composition of
condensation control materials including
insulation and vapor retarders, as well as
ventilation requirements. Metal roofing is
susceptible to condensation and its control
should be carefully considered. Applications
over rigid insulation may require solid
blocking/framing for installation of
perimeter flashings and drag load fasteners.
Underlayments:
Prior to installation, an underlayment
material may be installed over the roof
substrate. The designer Should select and
specify an appropriate material. The
specified material must have a non-abrasive
top surface that will not mar, scratch, or
abrade the underside ofthe metal panels and
flashings.
6e. - Utility Systems Division recommends
authorizing the transfer of $30,000 from Page 78 of 98
"Pinning" Requirements:
The panels must only be "pinned" at one
location only to resist the "drag" loads
caused by the panel weight, live loads, and
snow loads. The intensity ofthe drag load is
a function of the slope, the loads involved,
and the length of the panels. Panels must
not be pinned at more than one location
otherwise damages induced by thermal
movement will occur. Appendix' A' gives
the drag loads for various slopes and snow
loading conditions, and Appendix 'B' shows
the number of fasteners required to resist the
drag loads.
Thermal Movement:
Both panels and flashings must allow for
thermal movement (expansion and
contraction) of the materials, especially
where long lengths are used. Appropriate
gaps or provisions must be provided to
accommodate thermal movement.
Snow Design:
If possible, valleys, gutters, roof elevation
changes and penetrations should be
minimized or eliminated in snow areas.
Roof penetrations should be located as close
to the ridge or peak ofthe roof as possible to
minimize accumulations of ice and snow
and the effects of thermal movement ofthe
roof panels. Premium membrane
underlayments should be used. Valleys in
snow areas require special consideration due
to the accumulation of snow and ice from
tributary roof areas.
Valleys:
Valley dimensions must be the proper width
to account for slope, snow, ice, and rain
conditions. Valleys should receive a
premium underlayment since they are
susceptible to water buildup. Valleys must
have positive slope for drainage and be kept
-free of debris so that water does not back up
and intrude under the panels.
Oil Canning:
Flat metal surfaces often display waviness
commonly referred to as 'oil canning'. This
can be caused by variations in raw material,
processing variations, product handling, or
variations in the substrate and roofing
underlayments. Oil canning is a
characteristic, not a defect, of panels
manufactured from light-gauge metal.
Panels are available with striations and are
factory "corrective leveled" to minimize oil
canning. Oil canning is not a cause for
panel rejection. Additional information is
avai lable upon request.
References:
The Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning
Contractors' National Association Inc.
(SMACNA) manual is an excellent
reference for sheet metal contractors. It's
guidelines for underlayments, gutter and
downspout size requirements, and
expansion/contraction of metals and flashing
joints should be followed.

AEP SPAN 20 YEAR STANDARD FULL SYSTEM
WEATHERTIGHTNESS LIMITED WARRANTY AGREEMENT
This LIMITED WARRANTY AGREEMENT issued XXXXXX (“Date of Issuance”) sets forth
the complete understanding and agreement with respect to the following:
OWNER:
PROJECT:
PRODUCT(S):
INVOICED TO:
INVOICE NUMBER(S):
INVOICE DATE(S):
AEP Span (“AEP”), a division of ASC Profiles Inc., and the Roofing Contractor identified below
(“Roofing Contractor”) severally extend this 20 Year Standard Full System Weathertightness
Warranty for the metal roofing and flashings (“Roof System”) as manufactured by AEP and
installed on a building or buildings (“Building”) for the original Project identified above
(“Project”) for the original Building Owner identified above (“Owner”) subject to the terms,
conditions and limitations set forth in this document. No terms or conditions other than those
stated herein, and no agreement or understanding, oral or written, purporting to modify these
terms or conditions, shall be binding on AEP or the Roofing Contractor unless hereinafter made
in writing by AEP.
In consideration for the Owner agreeing to the terms herein as the sole basis of the bargain, AEP
and the Roofing Contractor warrant that AEP’s materials and the Roofing Contractor’s
workmanship on the Project, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this document, will
be adequate to prevent leaks through the Roof System for a period of twenty (20) years
commencing with the Date of Substantial Completion (as defined herein). In the event of leaks,
this warranty will be fully satisfied by repair or replacement of the Roof System, and any such
repairs or replacements shall carry a similar warranty against leaks only for any remaining
balance of the original warranty period. This Warranty is not an insurance policy or maintenance
agreement. The Owner has sole responsibility to perform routine inspections and maintenance of
the Roof System on a regular basis.
There shall be no liability or responsibility on AEP or the Roofing Contractor for any leakage or
damage to the Roof System caused by or associated with:
6e. - Utility Systems Division recommends
authorizing the transfer of $30,000 from Page 92 of 98
Page 2 of 4
A. Corrosion or deterioration caused by exposure to marine (salt water) atmosphere;
moisture containing salt from atmospheric conditions; constant spray of any type of
water; condensation of water vapor; drainage from rooftop equipment including venting
stacks; or corrosive chemicals such as metallic contact with or oxidation run off from
copper, lead, or treated lumber, or corrosive chemicals such as ash or fumes generated
from chemical plants, foundries, plating works, kilns, fertilizer factories, paper plants and
the like.
B. Alterations to the Project or Roof System without prior written approval and
authorization of such alterations from AEP.
C. Ventilators, skylights, internal or valley gutters, flashings or penetrations of the Roof
System associated with signs, vents, equipment or other causes unless specifically shown
and detailed on the approved Shop Drawings.
D. Damage to all or any part of the Roof System caused by acts of God or unspecified
natural disasters such as but not limited to lightning, hail, fire, explosion, earthquake,
winds in excess of those specified, accidents, vandalism, falling objects, civil
commotions, terrorism, acts of war, or any other cause outside the direct control of AEP.
E. Conditions that block the drainage or free flow of rain water or snow or ice melt, or allow
or encourage ponding or standing water, or allow or encourage uncontrolled drainage
onto any part of the Roof System.
F. Inadequate vapor barriers or lack of adequate ventilation of attic spaces.
G. Roofing underlayments that have granular or abrasive surfaces that can abrade any
portion of the Roof System.
H. Lack of regular, normal, or routine care in maintaining the Roof System.
In the event of a leak in the Roof System, both AEP and the Roofing Contractor must be notified
in writing within 30 days. The Owner must allow representatives of AEP and the Roofing
Contractor reasonable time and opportunity to inspect the Roof System. AEP shall, at its sole
option, have the right to specify the repair work for stopping the leak, and reserves the right to
undertake, supervise or approve the repair work. Owner agrees to reimburse AEP for all
reasonable investigation costs incurred by AEP for leaks not warranted hereunder. Failure of
Owner to properly notify or reimburse AEP releases AEP from any further liability under this
agreement.
The Roofing System, if found to be defective, will be repaired, restored, or replaced at AEP’s
discretion. AEP reserves the right to discontinue items in its product line or offering. Should the
product covered under this warranty be discontinued, AEP shall have the right to substitute a
product of equal quality at its sole discretion. It is understood that normal exposure to the
elements may preclude a perfect color or finish match with replacement materials. The warranty
on repaired, restored, or replaced products supplied hereunder shall be for the remainder of the
original warranty period.
This Warranty Agreement shall be null and void if AEP’s details and specifications are not
followed in performing any installation, repair, restoration, or replacement work covered by this
Warranty Agreement. This Warranty Agreement is tendered for the sole benefit of the original
owner as named above and is not transferable or assignable. This Warranty Agreement becomes
valid only when signed by the original Owner, the Roofing Contractor, and an authorized
representative of AEP. This Warranty Agreement shall not apply and shall be null, void and of

no effect if AEP and the Roofing Contractor have not been paid in full for all their materials and
services provided for the Project.
The “Date of Substantial Completion” is hereby defined as the earlier of (i) the date of the
Owner’s certificate of substantial completion for the Building or the Project, (ii) the date of the
Owner’s certificate of occupancy or actual occupancy of the Building or the Project, or (iii) six
(6) months after the Date of Issuance of this Warranty Agreement.
THE LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH IN THIS DOCUMENT SHALL BE AEP’S AND THE ROOFING
CONTRACTOR’S SOLE WARRANTY AND SHALL BE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, WHICH ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED AND EXCLUDED INCLUDING
WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR
PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE AND ALL OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES ON THE PART OF AEP
OR THE ROOFING CONTRACTOR FOR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH
THE USE, REPAIR, OR PERFORMANCE OF THE BUILDING, THE PROJECT OR THE ROOF SYSTEM.
LIABILITY UNDER THIS WARRANTY AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE ACTUAL COST OF
