Adventure4hire, Thank you for your well thought response.
I still feel guilty stealing someone's post. Here is the
answer to the original post: "CEQA, env.issues, entitlement phase
should be additional srvc."

Back to my post.
I agreed to all things you said, given the unknown factors,
which other readers shouldn't be concerned with, for their CSE study.
a) B102, however does not spell out after 60d of postponing the project
by the Owner, the Architect is terminating the contract by default,
BUT rather Architect has to give out a 7d written notice (60+7=67d).
I am not sure the Architects wd do that in practice (I am not a Boss to know).
b) I couldn't find where it says how long is the limit
after being overbid (you are correct), the Architect has to work
for free to adjust the design (I guess it has to falls back to (a).)
(I knew my Boss had to pay for engineers in this particular prj, I saw the CT).
c) I also think, code conformity as additional srvc is not "by portions" but
rather the "entire project" (that what we did for this proj).
d) Extra info : As being called into working for the adjusting phase of the proj,
my condition to my boss was to obtain a different cost estimator, and he agreed,
so I guess the previous cost estimate was not in line as expected. The rebid
was a success, just a few $$K over.
--------But that is too much minutia for CSE----------
