    IN THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

     

    June 30, 2015

     

     

    To declare the existence of an emergency with respect to the need to approve Modification No. 5 and proposed Modification No. 6 to Contract No. GAGA-2014-C-0026A to provide occupational and physical therapy assessment, consultation, and intervention services to the District and to authorize payment for the services to be received under that contract.

     

    RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Modifications to Contract No. GAGA-2014-C-0026A Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2015”.

     

    Sec. 2. (a)  There exists a need to approve Modification No. 5 and proposed Modification No. 6 to Contract No. GAGA-2014-C-0026A with Educational Based Services to provide occupational and physical therapy assessment, consultation, and intervention services to the District and to authorize payment for the services to be received under that contract.

    (b)  On June 19, 2015, by Modification No. 5, the District of Columbia Public Schools exercised a partial option of option year one of Contract No. GAGA-2014-C-0026A to provide occupational and physical therapy assessment, consultation, and intervention services for the period from June 20, 2015, through July 31, 2015.

    (c)  Modification No. 6 is now necessary to exercise the remainder of option year one for the total not-to-exceed amount of $1,411,888.10.

    (d)  Council approval is necessary because these modifications increase the contract by more than $1 million during a 12-month period.

    (e)  Approval is necessary to allow the continuation of these vital services.  Without this approval, Educational Based Services cannot be paid for services provided in excess of $1 million for the contract period June 20, 2015, through June 19, 2016.  

     

    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 Contract No. GAGA-2014-C-0026A Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2015 be adopted after a single reading.

     

    Sec. 4.  This resolution shall take effect immediately.
