The "Modification Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 Contract No. DCAM-20-AE-0019 with DLR Group of DC, P.C., Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2025" is an emergency bill that seeks to approve multiple modifications to an existing contract for architectural and engineering services related to the Metropolitan Police Department's Daly Building swing space. The bill authorizes a total payment of $2,775,355 for the services rendered under these modifications, which include additional work necessitated by changes from Board of Zoning Appeals hearings. Notably, Modification No. 8 increases the contract amount by $231,680, bringing the cumulative value of all modifications to $1,200,355, thus requiring Council approval due to exceeding the $1 million threshold.

The bill also extends the final completion date of the project from July 20, 2025, to September 30, 2026, and adjusts the administrative term date accordingly. It includes a mutual release clause where the contractor waives any claims against the Department for delays or additional costs related to the modifications. All other terms and conditions of the contract remain unchanged, ensuring compliance with updated zoning requirements and facilitating the project's progress while maintaining transparency and accountability in the procurement process.
