1.0 Executive Summary

1.1 Purpose

This document provides comprehensive supporting documentation for JWTC LLC's invoice submitted to the City of Baltimore Department of Public Works ("DPW") for emergency snow and ice removal services performed during the period of February 2–12, 2026. Every line item on the accompanying invoice is substantiated by documented city directives, contractual authority, payroll records, equipment logs, and contemporaneous communications drawn from 312 emails and 10 text message threads comprising 500+ messages.

1.2 Scope of Engagement

JWTC LLC was engaged by the City of Baltimore DPW to provide emergency snow and ice removal services across designated city routes and facilities. The engagement required rapid mobilization of heavy equipment, operators, and support personnel under emergency conditions, with operations directed in real time by DPW officials including Chief Toya Sykes, Chief Steve Strickland, Fleet Manager Sandra Calligan, Division Manager Anthony Galloway, and Department Director Kendall Abu-Hakim.

City Directives Documented35+ specific directives from 5 DPW officials
JWTC Questions Unanswered by DPW3 confirmed

1.4 Three Things to Know Before Reading Further

  1. The city made the calls. Every equipment deployment, scope change, staging decision, and route assignment was directed by DPW officials. JWTC executed what the city asked for. The Responsibility Matrix (Section 6.0) makes this unambiguous.
  2. JWTC raised concerns in writing — the city didn't answer. When billing questions arose, JWTC's Project Manager flagged them directly to DPW leadership. Those questions remain unanswered as of the date of this package. See Section 5.0.
  3. Every dollar traces to a city directive. This package maps each invoiced cost to a specific DPW instruction, communicated via text, email, or in person by authorized officials. 87 individual evidence items are catalogued in Section 13.0.

⚠ Safety Conditions

JWTC crews operated under dangerous conditions at the city's direction throughout this engagement:

Four safety incidents in six days. DPW Chief Toya Sykes was directly informed of each incident and directed crews to continue operations at alternative locations.

1.5 Documentation Methodology

This package was compiled from:

All evidence items are assigned a unique reference number (format: EVD-XXXX) and discrepancies use DISC-XXX for cross-referencing throughout this document.

2.0 Contract & Amendment History

ReferenceEVD-0001
⚠ Critical Discrepancy (DISC-001): Sandra Calligan's cover email stated "Please see the attached amendment to the contract for the 50 skid steers." The attached executed PDF, however, clearly documents "50 Dump Trucks @ $175/hr." The signed legal document controls. See Section 11.0 for full analysis.

2.3 Amendment 2 — In Progress as of February 12, 2026

4.0 City-Directed Actions & Authorizations

This section catalogs the specific directives received from DPW officials that authorized, expanded, or modified JWTC's scope of work. Each directive is linked to invoiced costs.

4.1 Staging Location Directives

Every staging location was city-directed. JWTC did not choose where to stage — the city told them.

8Feb 9"I have 14 dumps 4 bobcats for your team"Toya (DPW)EVD-0140
9Feb 10"Do we have any dozer in theater?"Steve (DPW)EVD-0143

4.3 Scope Definition Directives

Feb 8, 11:57 AM — Toya Sykes (DPW Chief):
"This is a SNOW REMOVAL OPERATION. Creating piles is not apart of the contracted scope of work! I want the piles gone." EVD-0135
Feb 9, 8:59 AM — Toya Sykes (DPW Chief):
"We are REMOVING the snow from these alleys. DO NOT BLOCK RESIDENTS IN or leave any piles of snow in the alleys. Our Trash and Recycling trucks must be able to get through. Make sure we are salting as well." EVD-0138

Legal Significance: Toya's own words define the contracted scope as snow removal — not merely snow pushing. Full removal requires dump trucks to haul snow away. Salting requires salt trucks. These directives from the city's Chief of Operations justify every dump truck and salt truck hour on JWTC's invoice.

4.4 Route & Priority Directives

DPW officials directed JWTC to specific routes, addresses, and neighborhoods — often driven by constituent complaints and City Council requests. Examples include:

5.0 ⚠ Unanswered Questions & Concerns — City Non-Responses

Throughout this engagement, JWTC raised specific questions and concerns to DPW officials in writing. The items below were never answered. They remain open as of the date of this package.

This matters because JWTC cannot be expected to absorb financial risk created by unanswered questions — especially when those questions were raised in good faith, in real time, and to the right people.

5.1 Unanswered Items — Detail

#Date / TimeWho AskedQuestion / ConcernDirected ToResponse
1 Feb 12, 10:42 AM Patrick Haygood (JWTC PM) "My main concern now is we were reporting the unit counts as they were changing on the fly with needs etc and the addendum is being issued at the original requested counts. Is that going to present an issue on billing." Steve Strickland (DPW Chief) ❌ NO RESPONSE
2 Feb 12, 2:05 PM Patrick Haygood (JWTC PM) "Please make sure to respond to my email this morning I don't want to miss anything" Steve Strickland (DPW Chief) ❌ NO RESPONSE (Steve: "In the middle of 5 things")
3 Feb 5, 7:10 AM Patrick Haygood (JWTC PM) "Do you still need a special request crew if so what would you like that crew to consist of" Toya Sykes (DPW Chief) ❌ No specific response in thread

5.2 Why This Matters

Each unanswered item represents a situation where:

  1. JWTC identified a potential issue — proactively, in writing, before invoicing
  2. JWTC directed the question to the right DPW official — someone with authority to answer
  3. DPW did not respond — no clarification, no correction, no guidance

JWTC cannot retroactively reduce its invoice based on questions DPW chose not to answer. The work was performed. The questions were asked. The city's silence does not create a discount.

5.3 JWTC's Position

Where DPW did not respond to JWTC's billing questions, JWTC has invoiced based on:

If DPW believes any invoiced amount should be adjusted, JWTC welcomes a specific, written response to each of the unanswered items listed above.

6.0 Responsibility Matrix — Who Owned What

6.1 The Bottom Line

 CITY DECIDED          JWTC EXECUTED          JWTC INVOICED
 ────────────          ─────────────          ─────────────
 "Send 295 skids"  →   Deployed equipment  →   Billed actual counts
 "Stage at M&T"    →   Moved everything    →   Billed logistics
 "REMOVE the snow" →   Deployed dump trucks→   Billed truck hours
 "Send salt trucks"→   Deployed 10 salt    →   Billed salt hours

7.2 Variance Analysis (Feb 9 Actuals vs. Authorized)

EquipmentAuthorizedActual (Feb 9)Variance% Over
Skid Steers204295+9144%
Dump Trucks50 (Amend. 1)81+3162%
Wheel Loaders415+11275%
Salt Trucks0 (no amendment)10+10N/A
Supervisors0 (no amendment)12+12N/A
The city received these numbers and took no corrective action. Toya asked for the counts, received them, and raised zero objections. She asked a second time later the same day EVD-0040 — still no objection. The city's senior operations official implicitly authorized these deployment levels through informed acceptance.

7.3 Night Shift Equipment Audit

JWTC Principal Brian Benoit identified 72 dump trucks operating on a single night shift at Neiman on Feb 9. This exceeds the Amendment 1 authorized count of 50 by 44%. This is consistent with the overall pattern of field-directed deployment exceeding amendment quantities DISC-003.

7.4 Toya's Personal Equipment Allocation

DPW Chief Toya Sykes was not merely informed of equipment counts — she was actively distributing equipment:

"Scott.... I have 14 dumps 4 bobcats for your team. Where are they going?" EVD-0140

This demonstrates the city controlled equipment allocation at the individual unit level.

8.3 Combined Workforce Confirmation

On February 9, DPW Chief Toya Sykes asked how many people were at M&T and Neiman for food truck logistics. Patrick responded: "450" EVD-0043. The city arranged food trucks for this workforce — acknowledging the scale of operations and treating JWTC crews as their own.

8.4 Payroll Rate Correction (Feb 12)

9.3 Salt Dome Access Issues

JWTC salt trucks were denied access to city-owned salt domes at least three times:

  1. Feb 3: Refused salt at designated location. Toya resolved: "5...4...3...2..1 now" EVD-0105
  2. Feb 4: Salt dome unstaffed. Sandra: "DOT is getting someone there." Toya: "they are DPW CONTRACTORS" EVD-0115 EVD-0116
  3. Feb 6: 4401 Leland Ave refusing to distribute salt — third denial EVD-0131

Each salt access denial was the city's internal communication failure, not JWTC's fault. Any salt truck downtime resulting from these denials was city-caused.

10.0 Mobilization & Demobilization

10.2 Demobilization — February 12, 2026

10.2.1 Formal Demob Directive

Steve Strickland (DPW Chief):
"We are using the current operational period (0700-1700) Thursday February 12th to demobilize. Field operation can conclude at this time. Please use this operation period as time to get any snow dump locations and staging areas organized and neat. Especially M&T lot B." EVD-0151

10.2.2 Demob Activities

10.2.3 Post-Demob Inspection (Feb 13)

Steve Strickland personally drove all sites on February 13:

Remaining equipment (2 trucks with trailers, bobcats, service truck) was being managed for pickup. Steve: "No rush." The city was satisfied with demobilization execution.

10.2.4 Professional Punch List

Patrick proactively identified and committed to resolving property damage:

"It's not just about moving machines, it's about making sure we tie up those loose ends without the city or our name tarnished for failure to see small details through." — Patrick Haygood, JWTC PM

11.0 Discrepancy Register & Billing Clarifications

JWTC identifies these discrepancies proactively and in good faith. For unanswered questions related to these discrepancies, see Section 5.0.

Pattern: Every discrepancy is either (a) caused by the city's internal processes or (b) the result of city-directed field operations outpacing the city's own amendment process. In no case did JWTC unilaterally expand scope.
