To declare the existence of an emergency with respect to the need to approve Change Order Nos. 006 and 007 to Contract No. DCAM-14-CS-0074 with MCN Build, Inc. for design build services for the modernization of Hyde-Addison Elementary School, and to authorize payment in the aggregate amount of $1,675,000 for goods and services received and to be received under the change orders.

 

            RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Change Order Nos. 006 and 007 to Contract No. DCAM-14-CS-0074 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2016”.

 

            Sec. 2. (a)  There exists an immediate need to approve Change Order Nos. 006 and 007 to Contract No. DCAM-14-CS-0074 for design build services for the modernization of Hyde-Addison Elementary School, and authorize payment in the aggregate amount of $1,675,000 for goods and services received and to be received under the change orders.

            (b)  The underlying contract was previously approved by the Council (CA20-0388).  The Council then approved Change Order Nos. 001 through 005 in the Change Order Nos. 001 through 005 to Contract No. DCAM-14-CS-007 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2015, effective July 31, 2015 (D.C. Act 21-129; 62 DCR 10860).  Thereafter, the Department of General Services issued Change Order No. 006 ($975,000).  Because Change Order No. 006 was for less than $1 million, Council approval was not required.

            (c) Change Order No. 007, in the amount of $700,000, will increase the aggregate value for Change Order Nos. 006 and 007 to $1,675,000.

            (d) Council approval of Change Order Nos. 006 and 007 in the aggregate amount of $1,675,000 is required 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 aggregate value of the payments under the change orders will exceed $1 million during a 12-month period.

            (e)  Approval of Change Order Nos. 006 and 007 in the aggregate amount of $1,675,000 is necessary to compensate MCN Build, Inc. for work completed and to be completed pursuant to Change Order Nos. 006 and 007 to Contract No. DCAM-14-CS-0074.

            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. 006 and 007 to Contract No. DCAM-14-CS-0074 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2016 be adopted after a single reading.

 

            Sec. 4.  This resolution shall take effect immediately.
