The resolution, titled the "Contract No. CW103730 with Bound Tree Medical, LLC Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025," addresses an urgent need for the Council of the District of Columbia to approve modifications to an existing contract with Bound Tree Medical, LLC. Specifically, it seeks to authorize payment for goods and services received and to be received under the contract, which is crucial for the Fire and Emergency Medical Services Department. The modifications include an increase in the contract's not-to-exceed amount from $995,000 to $1.6 million for the period of October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2025, necessitating Council approval due to the total value exceeding $1 million.

The resolution emphasizes the immediate necessity of these modifications to ensure the continuation of essential services provided by Bound Tree Medical, LLC. It states that without the Council's approval, the company cannot be compensated for services rendered beyond the $1 million threshold. The Council has determined that the circumstances warrant an emergency declaration, allowing the resolution to be adopted after a single reading and taking effect immediately.
