The resolution presented by Mayor Muriel Bowser seeks the Council of the District of Columbia's approval for an emergency bill regarding Contract No. CW123725 with Modaxo Traffic Management USA, Inc. This contract is essential for providing ticket processing and adjudication services to support the enforcement of the District's parking and traffic laws. The contract, executed on January 28, 2025, is valued at $6,002,005.94 and covers services from January 29, 2025, to May 29, 2025. Due to the contract's value exceeding $1 million, Council approval is required under the District of Columbia Home Rule Act.
The resolution emphasizes the urgent need for approval to ensure the continuation of these vital services, as Modaxo Traffic Management USA, Inc. cannot be compensated for services rendered without the Council's authorization. The Council recognizes the emergency circumstances necessitating immediate action and intends for the resolution to take effect immediately after a single reading.
