Bill > B26-0034

This bill approves six modifications to a construction contract with Chiaramonte Construction Company for renovating the Public Safety Communications Center, despite typical procurement regulations. Specifically, the Council is authorizing payment of up to $13,693,879.06 for goods and services under Contract No. DCAM-22-CS-RFP-0026, using special provisions of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act that allow for emergency legislative action. The bill overrides standard procurement practices and is time-limited, remaining in effect for only 90 days after mayoral approval. The Chief Financial Officer has provided a fiscal impact statement confirming the financial feasibility of the contract modifications. This emergency act allows the District to proceed quickly with critical infrastructure improvements to the Public Safety Communications Center, bypassing normal contracting procedures to ensure timely renovation work.
