The resolution declares an emergency regarding the requirement for the Office of Independent Juvenile Justice Facilities Oversight to prepare and report a plan for its continued operations. This requirement has become moot due to the passage of the Recidivism Reduction at DYRS Amendment Act of 2024, which permanently transfers the Office's functions to the Office of the District of Columbia Auditor and establishes new oversight responsibilities. As a result, the Council seeks to eliminate the reporting requirement to prevent unnecessary use of resources.

The resolution emphasizes the urgency of this action, as the mandated report is no longer needed following the recent legislative changes. By adopting this emergency legislation after a single reading, the Council aims to streamline operations and ensure that the Auditor can focus on its new responsibilities without the burden of an outdated reporting requirement. The resolution is effective immediately upon adoption.
