A RESOLUTION

 

20-253 

 

IN THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

 

July 10, 2013

 

 

To declare the existence of an emergency with respect to the need to approve Change Orders No. 001 through No. 006 to Contract No. GM-10-DPR-0308B-FM for design-build services for Raymond Recreation Center between the District of Columbia government and AF/F&L, INC-SIGAL, LLC, and to authorize payment to AF/F&L, INC-SIGAL, LLC, in the aggregate amount of $3,049,148 for the goods and services to be received under these change orders.

 

            RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Change Orders No. 001 through No. 006 to Contract No. GM-10-DPR-0308B-FM Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2013”.

 

            Sec. 2.(a)  There exists an immediate need to approve Change Orders No. 001 through No. 006 to Contract No. GM-10-DPR-0308B-FM for design-build services and additional project scope at Raymond Recreation Center in the aggregate amount of $3,049,148 and to authorize payment for the goods and services to be received under these change orders. 

            (b)  The Council of the District of Columbia Council previously approved Contract No. GM-10-DPR-0308B-FM (CA 19-0320).  Thereafter, the aggregate value of Change Orders No. 001 through No. 005 was under $1 million; thus, these change orders did not require Council approval.

            (c) Change Order No. 006 will cause the aggregate value of change orders issued, after Council approval of the Contract, to exceed  $1 million; thus Council approval 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).

(d)  Approval of Change Orders No. 001 through No. 006 in the aggregate amount of $3,049,148 is necessary to authorize AF/F&L-Sigal to proceed with the construction of a new playground and athletic field at the Raymond Recreation Center, and changes to improve accessibility at Raymond Recreation Center.    

 

 

 

 

            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 No. 001 through No. 006 to Contract No. GM-10-DPR-0308B-FM Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2013 be adopted after a single reading.

 

            Sec. 4.  This resolution shall take effect immediately.
