B 26-0096 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

Contract No. CW118832 with Modaxo Traffic Management USA, Inc., Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2025

This bill authorizes the District of Columbia to pay Modaxo Traffic Management USA, Inc. $6,034,831.66 for emergency ticket processing services related to traffic and parking enforcement. It directly affects the District's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and Metropolitan Police Department (MPD), which rely on these services to collect fines for traffic violations. The bill approves a retroactive 120-day emergency contract (October 1, 2024 - January 28, 2025) to prevent service interruption while securing a long-term contract. It does not create new policy but formally authorizes payment for services already provided under an emergency procurement.

Introduction → Enrollment · 3 edits

MINOR

The document transitioned from a Mayor's introduction letter and draft bill to an enrolled original legislative text. The substantive policy content of the bill itself remains unchanged, with the main differences being the removal of the Mayor's cover letter and the addition of formal enrollment markings, signatures, and page headers indicating this is the official enrolled version ready for execution.

TECHNICAL

Removed the Mayor's introduction letter dated January 30, 2025, which included contact information for Marc Scott and the formal letter format addressed to Chairman Mendelson.

Added enrollment markings including 'ENROLLED ORIGINAL' headers, signature lines for the Chairman and Mayor, and page numbering to indicate this is the official enrolled version of the bill.

Changed the document header from 'COUNCIL CONTRACT SUMMARY' to 'AN ACT' to reflect the bill's progression from a contract summary document to formal legislative text.
