Full text
(a) Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, the committee may extend a personal service agreement, as defined in subsection (a) of section 2-71t, or a contract based on competitive negotiation, as defined in subsection (a) of section 2-71p, without complying with the requirements of said sections, if the committee finds that an extension is in the best interests of the state. Such finding shall be based on a written determination that:
(1) Issuing a request for proposals would cause a hardship for the state;
(2) issuing a request for proposals would result in a major increase in the cost of such service;
(3) the contractor is the sole source for such service;
(4) the expiring contract is for a specific project, rather than an ongoing need for a service, which is still in progress; or (5) the expiring contract is for no more than three years and a change in contractors would entail substantial cost or disruption. No agreement or contract may be extended more than one time under this section.
(b) On and after July 1, 2015, the committee shall not extend any personal service agreement or contract based on competitive negotiation under subsection (a) of this section unless such agreement or contract requires, or is modified to require, the personal service contractor or contractor, and each subcontractor of such personal service contractor or contractor, to pay each of the personal service contractor's, contractor's or subcontractor's employees providing services under such agreement or contract, and that are performed or rendered at the Legislative Office Building or the State Capitol, a wage of at least (1) fifteen dollars per hour, or (2) if applicable, the amount required to be paid under subsection (b) of section 31-57f, whichever is greater. The provisions of this subsection shall not apply to any employee providing services under such agreement or contract who receives services from the Department of Developmental Services.
