The resolution, titled "Modification No. M03 to Contract No. DCAM-21-NC-RFQ-0002Q with Spectrum Management Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025," declares an emergency regarding the need for the Council of the District of Columbia to approve a contract modification with Spectrum Management. This modification, which was executed on October 1, 2024, allows for the continuation of services under the contract for an additional year, with a not-to-exceed amount of $5 million. Council approval is required because the modification involves an option year exceeding $1 million, which is necessary for the payment of goods and services already received and to be received.

The resolution emphasizes the urgency of the situation, stating that without the Council's approval, Spectrum Management would not be compensated for services rendered beyond the $1 million threshold during the contract period from October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2025. The Council has determined that the circumstances warrant immediate action, allowing the resolution to be adopted after a single reading and taking effect immediately.
