The resolution declares an emergency regarding the approval of Contract No. CW118832 with Modaxo Traffic Management USA, Inc., which is essential for the provision of ticket processing services for traffic violations. This contract, executed on October 1, 2024, is valued at $6,034,831.66 and covers services from October 1, 2024, to January 28, 2025. Due to the contract's value exceeding $1 million, Council approval is required under the District of Columbia Home Rule Act to authorize payment for the goods and services rendered.

The resolution emphasizes the urgent need for Council approval to ensure the continuation of these critical services, as Modaxo Traffic Management USA, Inc. cannot be compensated for services provided without this authorization.
