A RESOLUTION

 

20-260 

 

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 Modification Nos. 2-9 to Contract No. DCKA-2011-R-0180 with Xerox State and Local Solutions, Inc. (“Xerox”), and to authorize payment for services received and to be received under the contract.

 

RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Modification Nos. 2-9 to Contract No. DCKA-2011-R-0180 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2013”.

 

Sec. 2.   (a) There exists an immediate need to approve Modification Nos. 2-9 to Contract No. DCKA-2011-R-0180 for parking meter management services to the District Department of Transportation (“DDOT”) and to authorize payment for services received and to be received under this contract.

(b) On January 13, 2012, DDOT’s Office of Contracting and Procurement awarded a 6-month sole source emergency contract, DCKA-2011-R-0180 (“Contract”), to Xerox for parking meter management services.  The District seeks Council approval of Modification Nos. 2-9 to the Contract, which increased the funding to $5,890,500.00 and extended the contract to June 30, 2013.  DDOT has attempted to provide a replacement contract for a base year with 4, one-year options, but this contract has been stayed by a protest filed before the District’s Contract Appeals Board (“CAB”) since September 24, 2012.  This protest is still pending before the CAB.

            (c)  Council approval is necessary because this modification increases the contract by more than $1 million during a 12-month period.  Council approval is necessary to allow the continuation of these vital services and to allow Xerox to continue performance under the contract.

 

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 Modification Nos. 2-9 to Contract No. DCKA-2011-R-0180 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2013 be adopted after a single reading.

 

Sec. 4. This resolution shall take effect immediately.
