The "Multiyear Contract No. DHCD-2025-50 with Jubilee Housing, Inc. Emergency Act of 2025" is a legislative proposal aimed at approving a multiyear contract between the Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) and Jubilee Housing, Inc. The contract, valued at a not-to-exceed amount of $33,679,648, spans a 20-year period and is intended to subsidize rents and provide services for 18 permanently affordable re-entry supportive housing units located at 1721-1725 Kalorama Road NW in Ward 1. The bill seeks to bypass certain provisions of existing laws, including the Procurement Practices Reform Act of 2010 and the Reentry Housing and Services Program Act of 2021, to facilitate the approval of this contract.

The legislation emphasizes the urgency of the matter, as it is presented as an emergency act, which will take effect upon approval by the Mayor or following a Council override of a potential veto. The bill also includes a fiscal impact statement, which has been adopted from the Chief Financial Officer, ensuring that the financial implications of the contract are accounted for. Overall, the bill aims to provide essential housing support for individuals re-entering the community, thereby addressing critical housing needs in the District of Columbia.
