The "Langston Slater Surplus Declaration and Disposition Approval Act of 2025" proposes to declare the District-owned real property located at 33-45 P Street, NW, as surplus and authorize its disposition. This property, previously home to the Langston and Slater Elementary Schools, is deemed no longer necessary for public purposes. The Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development has selected a development team, Lebanon Village at Langston Slater, to construct approximately 52 mixed-income residential units on the site. The project will include a requirement that at least 30% of the residential units be designated as affordable housing, and the developer must comply with certain contracting obligations with Certified Business Enterprises.

The bill outlines the method of disposition, which includes a ground lease for rental units and a fee simple sale for units intended for sale. It also establishes a two-year expiration on the Mayor's authority to dispose of the property following the bill's effective date. The legislation emphasizes community engagement in the development process and aims to benefit the District by providing mixed-income housing options.
