Title

A RESOLUTION CONCERNING CONTRACT APPROVALS for the purpose of approving, pursuant to Section 819 of the Charter for Prince George's County, Maryland, multiyear contract modifications, described in Attachment A, each exercising an available option year and raising the aggregate contract ceiling to an amount in excess of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00), for snow and ice control services; and approving, pursuant to Section 819 of the Charter, increased funding for multiyear contracts for transportation services described in Attachment B, for which previously approved funding is insufficient to meet Fiscal Year 2027 requirements.

 

Background

Section 819 of the Charter requires County Council approval, by resolution upon notice and public hearing, of all multi-year contracts exceeding $500,000.00 in the aggregate, and of any increase to Council-approved funding for such contracts. The Department of Public Works and Transportation (DPW&T) administers the County's snow and ice control program through contracted snow removal contractors. DPW&T has identified three existing snow and ice control contracts (Attachment A) that require modification to exercise an available option year, with each modification raising the contract's cumulative ceiling above $500,000.00: LJ Enterprises (CW63486), from $405,324 to $660,648; Benny's Exterior (CW63496), from $459,743 to $769,486; and Capital Transmission (CW63490), from $495,396 to $840,792. In addition, DPW&T has identified two existing multiyear contracts for transportation services (Attachment B) which previously approved Council funding is insufficient to meet Fiscal Year 2027 requirements: Zenobe Americas EV Asset Co LLC (CW65468), requiring $240,000.48 in additional funding above the previously approved $160,000.00; and the Howard County MOU (CW60802), requiring $940,774.00 in additional funding above the previously approved $1,378,000.00. This resolution approves the contract modifications in Attachment A and the increased funding in Attachment B and authorizes the County Executive to make non-substantive modifications necessary to finalize them.
