About this file
This is a Small Contractor Development (SCD) waiver request email chain from New Haven Public Schools in Connecticut regarding the procurement of on-call pest and rodent control services. The request originates from Heather Barbarotta, Assistant Director of Operations and Sustainability, who initiated inquiries in March 2025 to identify available pest control vendors within the SCD program. After confirming that no qualified SCD vendors currently provide pest control services—including verification that Sadie's Pro Cleaning, initially suggested as a potential provider, specializes in biohazard cleanup rather than pest management—Barbarotta requested an SCD waiver to allow the contract to proceed to public bid. The waiver request was confirmed by Lilia Snyder, Program Manager of Small Contractor Development for the City of New Haven, on May 12, 2026, when she acknowledged that the SCD Program does not have vendors capable of performing the required pest control services.
The waiver approval enables New Haven Public Schools to solicit competitive bids for comprehensive pest control services across all school facilities without restriction to small contractors currently in the SCD database. The contract scope encompasses proactive pest management measures, prompt response to infestation issues, compliance with health and safety regulations, and environmentally responsible practices. This on-call service model is designed to maintain safe and healthy learning environments for students, staff, and visitors while supporting the district's educational mission. No specific pricing terms, contract duration, renewal options, or award timeline are detailed in the waiver documentation.

Hi Lil, I reached out to Sadie’s, and she unfortunately does not provide pest control services. They perform biohazard cleanup etc…
She didn’t “reply all” in her email, but it’s attached.
If there aren’t any other companies in your program, can you please issue a waiver so we can get this contract out to bid?
Thank you!
Heather

Lil, I have searched the SCD list for pest control services. Seeing no vendors, I am requesting a SCD waiver for this contract.
Thank you, Heather
