Bill > B26-0096

This bill approves an emergency contract with Modaxo Traffic Management USA, Inc. (Contract No. CW118832) and authorizes payment of up to $6,034,831.66 for goods and services. The bill bypasses typical procurement practices requirements under the Procurement Practices Reform Act, utilizing emergency authorization provisions in the District of Columbia Home Rule Act. Specifically, the Council is approving the contract despite standard procurement regulations and adopting the fiscal impact statement from the Chief Financial Officer. The act will take effect upon mayoral approval (or Council override of a potential mayoral veto) and will remain in effect for a maximum of 90 days, which is the standard duration for emergency legislative acts in the District of Columbia. This type of emergency legislation allows the city to quickly enter into or authorize contracts that might otherwise be delayed by standard procurement processes.
