To amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to requiring a catalog of standard designs for small recurring capital projects

Summary

This bill would require the Department of Design and Construction, in consultation with the Department of Citywide Administrative Services and other relevant agencies, to establish and maintain a catalog of pre-approved standard designs for small capital structures of no more than 2,500 square feet and no more than $10 million in estimated construction cost. The bill would require a contracting agency to have prospective bidders use a standard design from the catalog when building a small capital structure unless the head of the agency determines that no design in the catalog can reasonably be adapted to the site conditions of the project.
