B 26-0529 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

Multiyear Contract No. AGR-25-30000342 with Aramark Management Services, LP Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2025

This bill approves a five-year contract (2025-2030) with Aramark Management Services, LP to provide janitorial and cleaning services at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center and the exterior grounds of the Carnegie Library. It authorizes payment of $39,241,788.60 for these services, covering routine cleaning of interior spaces at the Convention Center and exterior maintenance at the Carnegie Library. The contract directly affects the District of Columbia government, as Events DC (the agency managing these facilities) will use Aramark for these services. This is a procedural approval of an existing procurement, not a new policy change.

MODERATE
The document was converted from a cover letter and transmittal document into the formal enrolled text of a legislative bill. The substantive content of the bill itself remains unchanged, with only minor formatting adjustments and citation updates to the Home Rule Act. This represents a procedural step in the legislative process where the bill has been approved and enrolled for final passage.
TECHNICAL

The document format changed from a cover letter addressed to the Council Chairman to the formal enrolled bill text with signatures from the Chairman and Mayor.

Citation references to the Home Rule Act were updated from section 451 with specific code references to a simplified citation format.

The date line changed from 'December 3, 2025' to 'ENROLLED ORIGINAL' indicating the bill has been formally enrolled.

The cover letter content including the subject line, detailed contract purpose description, and enclosures list were removed as they were part of the transmittal document rather than the bill text itself.
