Bill summary

Amends SL 1975-671, to allow the City of Durham (Durham) to award contracts for the design and construction of a police headquarters and annex facility, two police service centers, and a 911 facility without being subject to GS 133-1, 133-2, 133-3, or the provisions of Article 3D of GS 143 and Article 8 of GS 143. Authorization is granted to use design-build, design-build-operate, design-build-operate-maintain or any combination of the above.

Durham must obtain proposals from at least three design-build teams for the authorized projects above. If three proposals are not received and the project has been publicly advertised for a minimum of 30 days, Durham can proceed with the proposals received. The evaluation of the proposals is not exempt from the requirements of the City's Equal Business Opportunity Program Ordinance.

The City Council must award the contract to the best qualified design-build team, taking into consideration several factors that it determines as having a material bearing on the proposal.

Includes a severability clause.
