The "Closing of a Public Alley in Square 5624, S.O. 17-21054, Act of 2025" is a legislative proposal aimed at closing a 12-foot-wide unimproved public alley located within the Lee Montessori East End campus in Ward 8. The alley, which is deemed unnecessary for public use, currently occupies space that the school community wishes to transform into a play area for students. The closure of this alley would allow the school to acquire the land and maximize the use of the available space, thereby supporting the expansion of the campus and enhancing outdoor learning and play opportunities for students.

The bill outlines the procedural framework for closing the alley, referencing the District of Columbia Home Rule Act and the Street and Alley Closing and Acquisition Procedures Act. It specifies that the title to the land will vest as indicated on the surveyor's plat associated with the alley closure. The act will take effect following the Mayor's approval and a 30-day congressional review period, ensuring that the legislative process adheres to established protocols.
