Summary of Bill B 26-0513: Modification Nos. M0011 and M0012 to Contract No. CW100388 with Friendship Place Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2025

Purpose and Intent

  • The bill seeks to authorize and formalize modifications (Modification Nos. M0011 and M0012) to Contract No. CW100388 with the nonprofit organization Friendship Place.
  • It designates the act as an emergency measure intended to provide timely approval and payment authority to implement the contract modifications without delay.

Key Provisions

  • Authorization of Modifications: Approves Modification Nos. M0011 and M0012 to the existing contract CW100388 held with Friendship Place.
  • Approval and Payment Authority: Grants explicit authority for approval of the modifications and the associated payments under the contract.
  • Emergency Status: Classified as an emergency act, intended to take effect promptly to address immediate needs or services covered under the contract.

Note: The specific terms of what each modification (M0011 and M0012) entails (scope of work, cost adjustments, timelines, deliverables) are not provided in the available document excerpt. The bill’s essence is to authorize these changes and the corresponding payments.

Affected Parties and Impacts

  • Primary Entities: City government/agencies administering the contract (likely a relevant District department) and Friendship Place (a service provider).
  • Impacts: Enables continuation or expansion of services under the contracted arrangement through authorized modifications and funded payments. The emergency designation suggests critical service continuity or urgent program support.

Procedural and Timeline Aspects

  • Introduced: November 24, 2025 (by Chairman Mendelson).
  • Final Readings and Committee Review: Retained by the Council with Committee on Human Services comments on December 2, 2025; Final Reading also noted December 2, 2025.
  • Transmission to Mayor: December 12, 2025, with a response due by December 29, 2025.
  • Mayor Action:
    • December 19, 2025: Signed by the Mayor and Enacted as Act No. A26-0231; effective date appears to be December 19, 2025.
    • December 19, 2025: Enacted with Act No. A26-0231; an expiration date is stated as March 19, 2026.
    • December 23, 2025: Status indicates Returned from Mayor (likely a post-enactment administrative action or processing step).
  • Expiration/Validity: Described as expiring on March 19, 2026, reflecting the emergency nature and potential temporary authorization pending further action or review.

Fiscal Considerations

  • The bill explicitly provides for approval and payment related to the contract modifications, implying additional or adjusted funding obligations under CW100388.
  • The stated expiration in March 2026 indicates a temporary funding/authorization window tied to the emergency designation.

Additional Notes

  • The document excerpt lacks the detailed terms of Modifications M0011 and M0012 (e.g., cost tables, revised deliverables, or performance milestones). Readers may wish to consult the bill’s attached exhibit or the contract modification documents (M0011 and M0012) for precise financial and programmatic details.
