IN THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

 

March 3, 2015         

 

 

To declare the existence of an emergency with respect to the need to approve the modification to Contract No. CW25390 with Precision Truck Repair, Inc. for school-bus maintenance services to increase the not-to-exceed amount to $1,500,000, and to authorize payment for the services received and to be received under the contract.

 

RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Modification to Contract No. CW25390 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2015”.

 

Sec. 2. (a)  There exists an immediate need to approve the modification to Contract No. CW25390 for school-bus maintenance services to increase the not-to-exceed amount to $1,500,000, and to authorize payment for the services received and to be received under the contract.

(b) On June 1, 2014, Contract No. CW25390 was awarded to Precision Truck Repair, Inc. for the period from June 1, 2014, to May 31, 2015 in an amount not to exceed $900,000.

(c) The proposed modification would increase the contract ceiling to $1,500,000, which is the maximum amount that the District now anticipates spending

(d) Council approval of the modification to Contract No. CW25390 is required pursuant to section 451(b)(1) of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, approved December 24, 1973 (87 Stat. 803; D.C. Official Code §1-204.51(b)(1)), because the modification would increase the contract value to an amount in excess of $1,000,000 during a 12-month period.

(e) Approval of the modification to Contract No. CW25390 is necessary to allow the continuation of these vital services.  Without this approval, Precision Truck Repair, Inc. cannot be paid for services provided in excess of $1,000,000.

 

 Sec. 3.  The Council of the District of Columbia determines that the circumstances enumerated in section 2 constitute emergency circumstances making it necessary that the Modification to Contract No. CW25390 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2015 be adopted after a single reading.

 

Sec. 4.  This resolution shall take effect immediately.
