RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Purchase Orders to Human Care Provider Agreement No. RM-14-HCPA-051-BY4-CPS Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2014”.

 

            Sec. 2. (a) There exists an immediate need to approve Purchase Orders PO461297, PO461297-V2, PO485974, PO485974-V2, and PO485974-V3 issued pursuant to Human Care Provider Agreement No. RM-14-HCPA-051-BY4-CPS between the Department of Behavioral Health and Clean and Sober Streets, Inc., for Level III non-hospital residential substance abuse treatment services to eligible District residents.  

(b)  Due to higher than anticipated utilization and to maintain continuity of care, the cost of the purchase orders for the period from May 2, 2013 through May 1, 2014 totaled $1,101,375.55, necessitating Council approval because they are in excess of $1,000,000 during a 12-month period.

(c) Without this approval, Clean and Sober Streets, Inc., cannot be paid for services provided in excess of $1,000,000 for the period May 2, 2013 through May 1, 2014.

 

Sec. 3. The Council of the District of Columbia determines that the circumstances enumerated in section 2 constitute emergency circumstances making it necessary that the Purchase Orders to Human Care Provider Agreement No. RM-14-HCPA-051-BY4-CPS Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2014 be adopted after a single reading.

 

Sec. 4. This resolution shall take effect immediately.
