To declare the existence of an emergency with respect to the need to retroactively approve the award of a contract option period 2 in the amount of $1,340,000.00 with Vision McMillan Partners, LLC, for development management services for the McMillan Sand Filtration project.

 

 

RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Contract No. DCEB-DMPED-11-C-0023 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2013”.

 

Sec. 2.  (a)  There exists an immediate need for the Council to approve a contract with Vision McMillan Partners, LLC, for development management services for the McMillan Sand Filtration project.

(b)  The Office of the Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development awarded a base contract on April 15, 2011, for an amount not to exceed $900,000.00 to Vision McMillan Partners, LLC (“Contract”).  The services provided under the contract are development management services for the McMillan Sand Filtration project with the intent of seeking and obtaining approval of the master plan for the development of the site.  The term of the Contract was from April 15, 2011 through November 30, 2011.

(c) The Contract was further extended through exercise of option period one in December 2011 to continue the required services.  The amount of the option period was $1,340,000.00.  The contract option period expired on November 30, 2012. After discussions with the contractor and contract administrator, it was determined that a partial option period should be exercised to allow the contractor to submit a detailed budget for the entire amount of the full option period.  A partial option was exercised in the not to exceed amount of $900,000.00 with additional amounts totaling $440,000.00.  The new amount of the FY13 option period totals $1,340,000.00.

(d) Council approval of the FY13 contract option period and authorization of payment for services to be received are needed on an emergency basis to ensure that the needed development management services are not compromised and to prevent the project schedule in question from falling behind relative to the approval of the master plan.

 

 

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. DCEB-DMPED-11-C-0023 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2013 be adopted after a single reading.

 

            Sec. 4.  This resolution shall take effect immediately.
