A RESOLUTION

 

21-35 

 

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 Contract No. CW31686 with Seagrave Fire Apparatus, LLC to provide ladder-truck refurbishment services, 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 “Contract No. CW31686 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2015”.

 

Sec. 2. (a)  There exists an immediate need to approve Contract No. CW31686 with Seagrave Fire Apparatus, LLC to provide ladder-truck refurbishment services, and to authorize payment for the services received and to be received under the contract.

(b) Contract No. CW31686 will be in the estimated contract amount of $2,218,720 for services provided during the period January 14, 2015 through January 13, 2016.

(c) Council approval of Contract No. CW31686 is necessary pursuant to section 451 of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, approved December 24, 1973 (87 Stat. 803; D.C. Official Code § 1-204.51), because the estimated contract amount is in excess of $1 million during a 12-month period.

(d) Approval of Contract No. CW31686 is necessary to allow the continuation of vital services.  Without this approval, the District can only order services up to the amount of $1 million, which will not satisfy its need to refurbish 16 trucks.

 

 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 Contract No. CW31686 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2015 be adopted after a single reading.

 

Sec. 4.  This resolution shall take effect immediately.
