            RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Change Orders Nos. 003 and 004 to Contract No. DCAM-12-M-1031H-FM Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2015”.

 

            Sec. 2. (a)  There exists an immediate need to approve Change Orders Nos. 003 and 004 to Contract No. DCAM-12-M-1031H-FM with MCN Build, LLC for design-build services for the Powell Elementary School modernization and expansion, and to authorize payment in the aggregate amount of $1,571,647 for the goods and services received and to be received under these change orders. 

            (b)  The underlying Contract No. DCAM-12-M-1031H-FM was competitively bid, awarded to MCN Build, LLC, and approved by the Council in CA20-0106 with a Phase A Guaranteed Maximum Price of $6,322,891.  Thereafter, the Department of General Services issued Change Orders Nos. 001 and 002, which had an aggregate value of $20,466,980.57 were submitted to and approved by the Council in PR20-0778.  Subsequently, the Department issued Change Order No. 003, which was in an amount under $1 million and thus did not require Council approval.

            (c) Change Order No. 004 will cause the aggregate value of Change Orders Nos. 003 and 004 to exceed the $1 million threshold set forth in section 451 of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, approved December 24, 1973 (87 Stat. 803; D.C. Official Code § 1-204.51).

(d)  Approval of Change Orders Nos. 003 and 004 to Contract No. DCAM-12-M-1031H-FM is necessary to compensate MCN Build, LLC for the work performed and to be performed under these change orders. 

            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 Orders Nos. 003 and 004 to Contract No. DCAM-12-M-1031H-FM Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2015 be adopted after a single reading.

            Sec. 4.  This resolution shall take effect immediately.
