Dear Chairman Mendelson:
Pursuant to the Reprogramming Policy Act of 1980, D.C. Official Code § 47-363(a) and
the District of Columbia Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, approved December 29, 2022
(P.L. 117-328), the Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) has reviewed the Mayor’s request
to reprogram Fiscal Year 2023 Local funds budget authority in the amount of $1,249,361 within
the District of Columbia Public Library (DCPL).
This action will reprogram budget authority within the DCPL’s Library Services division, from
Accounts 701100C (Continuing Full Time), 701300C (Additional Gross Pay), and 701400C
(Fringe Benefits - Current Personnel) to 701100C (Continuing Full Time), 713100C (Other
Services and Charges), 717100C (Purchase Equipment and Machinery). This reprogramming is
needed to support public safety priorities, administrative operational requirements, and cultural
programming developed during the year. Funds are available because of vacancy savings.

DATE: May 10, 2023
SUBJECT: FY 2023 Reprogramming Request for $1,249,361 of Local funds: DC Public
Library (CE0)
The DC Public Library (CE0) is requesting a budget reprogramming of $1,249,361 in Local
funds budget authority within the agency to move Personal Services (PS) vacancy surplus due to
salary lapse and vacancy savings to Non-Personal Services (NPS) to increase security at all
library locations, purchase two vehicles for the Public Safety Division, fund cultural
and arts programming at branch libraries and MLK to include Art All Night, signature author
events and musical performances. These activities are priorities for DCPL to help drive
library usage and increase downtown activation. The reprogramming will also support
important administrative operational needs.
Why are the funds needed?
This reprogramming is needed to address public safety and security priorities, administrative
operational needs, and cultural programming that have developed in FY23.
901 G STREET, NW Ste 403 ♦ WASHINGTON, DC 20001 ♦ (202) 727-1198
1. Communications (100003) funds to cover costs associated with cultural programming
including Art All Night; marketing needs for print, media, photography, branding,
promotional; training, and AV Production General Event Support and Equipment;
2. Language Access (100007) funds are needed to cover increased costs for translation
services;
3. Public Safety Services (500157) funds are needed to address security needs: purchase
two additional vehicles to patrol the branches; acquire Security Guard Services to serve
as Safety Ambassadors servicing all DCPL branches; and cover the costs associated for
mandatory training and certifications, drug testing, fingerprinting, commission renewals,
physicals, and firearm requalifications;
4. Administrative Operations Services (500272) funds are needed to order paper for the
entire Library Services, water testing for lead, environmental services, and parking
operations.
Is this a reprogramming to restore a budget cut authorized by the Mayor and/or Council?
No.
How will the funds be reprogrammed?
See the attached worksheet for details.
Why are the funds available?
The funds are available because of salary lapses and vacancy savings.
What hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent fiscal
year?
DCPL will need to scale back or cease altogether signature programming for the remainder of
the fiscal year. Signature programmings help to drive usage to the library, particularly the MLK
Library which can activate the downtown corridor, a city priority. The MLK Library had nearly
270,000 visits in Q1 and Q2 of this fiscal year driven, in large part, by signature programs.
Additionally, if the action is postponed, it will be difficult for DCPL to provide AV equipment
and support for events and activities for other District government agencies and non-profit
organizations.
What programs, services or other purchases will be delayed as a result of the action, and
the impact on the program or agency?
With security issues in libraries increasing and becoming more severe, delaying the addition of
security support services will impact the safety of library staff and customers. Additionally,
DCPL will be unable to provide translation and interpretation services for residents who
participate in agency programs and services; offer printing and copying services at the level
residents expect; and conduct water lead testing which is overdue.
