            (b)  The Council previously approved the underlying contract (CA19-0481) and Change Orders Nos. 001 through 003 (A20-0407).  Thereafter, the Department issued Change Order No. 004 with a value of $937,600.  The value of Change Order No. 004 was less than $1 million; thus, Council approval was not required.

Official Code § 1-204.51), because the total expenditure under Change Orders Nos. 004 and 00 will be in an amount in excess of $1,000,000 during a 12-month period. 

(e)  Approval of Change Orders Nos. 004 and 005 in the aggregate amount of $2,930,168 is necessary to compensate Prince Construction Company/W.M. Schlosser Company, Inc. JV for work completed and to be completed pursuant to Change Order Nos. 004 and 005 to Contract No. DCAM-12-CS-0165 for the renovation and expansion of the inmate processing center at the District’s Central Detention Facility. 

            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 Change Order Nos. 004 and 005 to Contract No.  DCAM-12-CS-0165 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2015 be adopted after a single reading.
