A RESOLUTION

 

20-146 

 

IN THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

 

June 4, 2013

 

 

 

To declare the existence of an emergency with respect to the need to approve Change Order No. 2 to the Contract for Design-Build Services for the Phase 1 Modernization of Leckie Elementary School between the District of Columbia government and Forney Enterprises, Inc., Contract No. DCAM-12-M-1031F-FM, and to authorize payment to Forney Enterprises, Inc., in the amount of $1,833,339.67 for the goods and services received under this change order.

 

 

            RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Change Order No. 2 to Contract No. DCAM-12-M-1031F-FM Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2013”.

 

            Sec. 2.(a)  There exists an immediate need to approve Change Order No. 2 to Contract No. DCAM-12-M-1031F-FM for design-build services, additional project scope, outstanding change requests, and the close-out of the Phase 1 project at Leckie Elementary School and to authorize payment in the aggregate amount of $1,833,339.67 for the goods and services received under this change order.    

            (b)  The Council of the District of Columbia previously approved Contract No. DCAM-12-M-1031F-FM (CA 19-0349) with a guaranteed maximum price (“GMP”) of $4,239,245.   Change Order No. 1 was an administrative change that did not increase the Contract’s GMP.  Change Order No. 2 in the amount of $1,833,339.67 causes the aggregate value of change orders issued after the Council’s approval to exceed the $1 million threshold pursuant to D.C. Official Code § 1-204.51; thus, Council approval is required.  Of this increase to the Contract’s GMP, $440,000 was previously authorized by a partial release of work under Change Order No. 2 and is included in the $1,833,339.67 total.

            (c) Approval of Change Order No. 2 in the aggregate amount of $1,833,339.67 is necessary to compensate Forney Enterprises, Inc., for work completed at Leckie Elementary School.

 

 

            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 No. 2 to Contract No. DCAM-12-M-1031F-FM Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2013 be adopted after a single reading.

 

            Sec. 4.  This resolution shall take effect immediately.
