The resolution declares an emergency regarding the need to approve several modifications to Contract No. CW101558 with Everyone Home DC, which provides essential services. Specifically, it addresses Modification Nos. M0009 through M0014, which involve adjustments to the contract's not-to-exceed (NTE) amounts and the extension of service periods. The modifications are necessary to ensure that the contract value exceeds $1 million, allowing for the continuation of vital services provided by Everyone Home DC from October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2025.
The resolution emphasizes the urgency of the situation, as Council approval is required to authorize payment for goods and services rendered under the contract. Without this approval, Everyone Home DC would be unable to receive payment for services exceeding the $1 million threshold. The Council has determined that the circumstances warrant immediate action, allowing the resolution to take effect immediately after a single reading.
