The resolution presented by Mayor Muriel Bowser seeks the Council of the District of Columbia's approval for an emergency bill concerning modifications to a contract with Smoot Construction Company. Specifically, it addresses Modification No. 6 and Proposed Modification No. 7 to Contract No. DCAM-22-CS-RFP-0019, which pertains to the construction management services for the DC Infrastructure Academy at Spingarn High School. The total not-to-exceed amount for these modifications is set at $61,462,436, which includes an increase of $999,990 from Modification No. 6 and an additional $2,099,032 from Proposed Modification No. 7.

The resolution emphasizes the urgent need for the Council to approve these modifications to ensure the timely continuation of construction and stabilization efforts at the school. Given that the aggregate value of the modifications exceeds $1 million, Council approval is mandated under the District of Columbia Home Rule Act. The resolution is designed to be enacted swiftly, allowing for immediate effect upon adoption after a single reading, thereby facilitating the necessary funding and services for the project.
