This emergency resolution approves a $1.69 million contract (CW122630) with Patriot Harley Davidson to purchase 30-35 police motorcycles with sidecars for the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD). It authorizes immediate payment for these vehicles, which were procured under emergency contract terms due to their value exceeding $1 million. The resolution is required under District of Columbia law to allow payment for goods delivered between December 2024 and December 2025. It directly affects the MPD (which will use the motorcycles) and Patriot Harley Davidson (the vendor). The Council must approve this to fulfill the emergency procurement.
