The proposed bill outlines a contract for Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) design-build services aimed at upgrading three Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) facilities in Washington, D.C., to ensure compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The contract, awarded to Chiaramonte Construction Company, totals $1,176,250, which includes an initial not-to-exceed amount of $182,288. The project is set to commence on May 16, 2023, with substantial completion expected by December 31, 2025, and final completion by March 2, 2026. The contractor is responsible for all design, construction, and renovation work necessary for ADA compliance, including landscaping and signage. The bill also confirms the contractor's status as a certified Small Business Enterprise and ensures compliance with all legal and financial obligations.

Additionally, the bill modifies the existing contract DCAM-22-CS-RFP-0007, extending the contract duration and including a release clause where the contractor waives claims against the Department related to delays or additional costs. The bill maintains that all other terms and conditions of the contract remain unchanged, and it emphasizes the importance of timely payments to subcontractors, compliance with local hiring requirements, and adherence to safety and quality standards throughout the project. Overall, the legislation aims to enhance accessibility at DPR facilities while promoting economic inclusion and accountability in government contracting.
