Emergency Purchase Order (WS1272407214) – Approve final payment in the total amount of $148,471.03 to Dunhill Development and Construction, LLC. for the emergency repairs of the underground plumbing systems at Val Jahnke Training Facility for the General Services Department on behalf of the Houston Fire Department.
Specific Explanation:
The Director of the General Services Department and the Chief Procurement Officer recommend that City Council approve final payment in the amount not to exceed $148,471.03 for the emergency repairs of the underground plumbing systems at Val Jahnke Training Facility to Dunhill Development and Construction, LLC. for the Houston Fire Department.
The Chief Procurement Officer issued an emergency purchase order to Dunhill Development and Construction, LLC. on April 28th, 2023, to temporarily repair a sanitation pipe located under the locker room facilities at the Val Jahnke Training Facility. Since then, further leaks and damage to the infrastructure have been detected in the aged internal plumbing system, preventing waste from leaving the building. The temporary repair was successful at containing the leaks. However, the remaining infrastructure has begun to fail and needs further repair to mitigate additional damage or loss of facility functionality. This final payment is for the original emergency work for which the emergency purchase order was issued. GSD will present a separate action for consideration by Council to award a contract for the remainder of the renovation.
This recommendation is made pursuant to Chapter 252, Section 252.022 (a) (2) of the Texas Local Government Code for exempted procurements, " which provides a procurement necessary to preserve or protect the public health or safety of the municipality's residents.”
