PR 26-0241 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

Contract No. CW103730 with Bound Tree Medical, LLC, Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025

This bill approves modifications to an existing contract (CW103730) with Bound Tree Medical, LLC for emergency medical supplies, increasing the total funding from $995,000 to $1,600,000 for the period October 2024-September 2025. It specifically authorizes payment for goods and services provided under the modifications to ensure continuity of emergency medical supply deliveries to the District’s Fire and Emergency Medical Services Department. The resolution is labeled an "emergency" because Council approval is legally required under D.C. law to authorize payments exceeding $1 million over a 12-month period, preventing disruption to critical services. Without this approval, the vendor could not be paid for supplies delivered beyond the initial contract value.

What changed between versions

Introduction → Enrollment · 3 edits
MINOR
The document transitioned from a Mayor's letter introducing a proposed bill to the enrolled (final) version of the resolution itself. The substantive policy content regarding contract modifications and payment authorization remained largely consistent, though the enrolled version includes additional language clarifying that Council approval is required because the contract value exceeds $1 million during a 12-month period.
TECHNICAL

The document format changed from a Mayor's letter introducing legislation to the enrolled resolution text itself, including page headers and formatting adjustments.

Minor formatting changes including capitalization of 'Option Year 2' and slight adjustments to date formatting and monetary amount presentation (e.g., '$1.6 million' instead of '$1,600,000').

REQUIREMENT

New language was added in Section 2(f) stating that without Council approval, Bound Tree Medical, LLC cannot be paid for goods and services exceeding $1 million for the specified period.
