IN THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

To declare the existence of an emergency with respect to the need to approve Modification No. 4 and proposed Modification No. 5 to Contract No. CW29496 to provide case management services to the District and to authorize payment for the services received and to be received under the contract modifications.

 

RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Modifications to Contract No. CW29496 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2015”.

 

Sec. 2. (a)  There exists a need to approve Modification No. 4 and proposed Modification No. 5 to Contract No. CW29496 with Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington to provide case management services to the District and to authorize payment for the services received and to be received under the contract modifications.

(b)  On May 26, 2015, by Modification No. 4, the Office of Contracting and Procurement, on behalf of the Department of Human Services, exercised a no-cost partial option of option year one of Contract No. CW29496 to provide case management services for the period from May 28, 2015, to June 27, 2015. 

(c)  Modification No. 5 is now necessary to exercise the remainder of option year one for the total not-to-exceed amount of $3,117,207.72.

(d)  Council approval is necessary since 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, Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington cannot be paid for services provided in excess of $1 million for the contract period from May 28, 2015, through May 27, 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. CW29496 Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2015 be adopted after a single reading.

 

Sec. 4.  This resolution shall take effect immediately.
