To declare the existence of an emergency with respect to the need to approve Modification Nos. 005 and 006 and proposed Modification No. 007 to Human Care Agreement No. RM-15-HCA-SATS-003-GHI-BY4-CPS with Good Hope Institute to continue to provide methadone maintenance and counseling treatment services to eligible District residents and to authorize payment for the services received and to be received under the modifications.

 

 

RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Modifications to Human Care Agreement No. RM-15-HCA-SATS-003-GHI-BY4-CPS Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2016”.

 

            Sec. 2. (a) There exists an immediate need to approve Modification Nos. 005 and 006 and proposed Modification No. 007 to Human Care Agreement No. RM-15-HCA-SATS-003-GHI-BY4-CPS with Good Hope Institute to continue methadone maintenance and counseling treatment services to eligible District residents.

(b)  The District awarded Human Care Agreement No. RM-15-HCA-SATS-003-GHI-BY4-CPS to Good Hope Institute for a base year from October 2, 2014, through October 1, 2015.

(c) By Modification No. 005, on October 2, 2015, the District exercised Option Year One of Human Care Agreement No. RM-15-HCA-SATS-003-GHI-BY4-CPS for the period from October 2, 2015, through September 30, 2016, in the not-to-exceed amount of $695,000.

(d) By Modification No. 006, on March 3, 2016, the District increased the not-to-exceed amount for Option Year One of Human Care Agreement No. RM-15-HCA-SATS-003-GHI-BY4-CPS by $296,981 to the not-to-exceed amount of $991,981.

(e) By Modification No. 007, the District proposes to increase the not-to-exceed amount for Option Year One of Human Care Agreement No. RM-15-HCA-SATS-003-GHI-BY4-CPS by $68,019 to the not-to-exceed amount of $1,060,000 and correct the term of Option Year One to end on October 1, 2016.

(f) Approval is necessary because the issuance of proposed Modification No. 007 would increase the contract value by more than $1 million during a 12-month period.

(g) Approval is necessary to allow the continuation of these vital services.  Without this approval, Good Hope Institute cannot be paid for services provided in excess of $1 million.

 

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 Modifications to Human Care Agreement No. RM-15-HCA-SATS-003-GHI-BY4-CPS Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2016 be adopted after a single reading.

 

Sec. 4. This resolution shall take effect immediately.
