The resolution declares an emergency regarding the need to approve three modifications (M0008, M0009, and M0010) to Contract No. CW86331 with Cellco Partnership, also known as Verizon Wireless. It authorizes payment for goods and services received and to be received under this contract. The modifications involve extending the contract term and increasing the not-to-exceed (NTE) amount for option year 4, which is essential for the continuation of vital services provided by Verizon Wireless.
The Council of the District of Columbia recognizes that these modifications will increase the contract value by more than $1 million within a 12-month period, necessitating Council approval. The resolution emphasizes the urgency of the situation, allowing it to be adopted after a single reading and taking effect immediately to ensure that Verizon Wireless can be compensated for the services rendered.
