Section XVII-517 - Contract for Appraisal Services (Formerly Section 513)A. The Contract for Appraisal Services is the form utilized by LDOTD in obtaining the services of fee appraisers on a given project. The contract sets forth the requirements for each appraisal requested and sets a completion date by which the assignment must be submitted. The contract binds LDOTD and the fee appraiser until such time as the assignment is complete or the contract has been terminated. However, work on a contract should not begin until a "Letter of Authorization" is received instructing the appraiser to begin.B. The appraiser should examine the agreement in detail and should be particularly aware of the time element set up within the contract. The LDOTD operates its construction program through a schedule of contract letting and the appraiser's failure to meet the time requirement of the contract can have damaging effects upon the overall completion of a project.La.
