The resolution submitted by Mayor Muriel Bowser requests the reprogramming of $9,147,283 in Special Purpose Revenue Funds for the Fiscal Year 2025 within the District of Columbia Public Charter School Board (DCPCSB). This reallocation is necessary to better align the budget with the agency's projected spending on salaries and benefits, as the current budget does not accurately reflect these costs due to issues with the PeopleSoft system. The funds will be shifted from government subsidies and grants to support full-time positions and fringe benefits, ensuring that the agency can meet its operational needs without negatively impacting the overall financial plan of the District.
Additionally, the resolution outlines a comprehensive budget of $14,426,000 for the District of Columbia's Executive Administration, detailing various allocations for services such as IT maintenance, contractual services, and grants. The Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) has reviewed the request and confirmed that the reprogramming will not adversely affect the DCPCSB's budget or the District's financial plan, as the funds are available due to lower-than-expected spending in grants. The adjustments aim to maintain operational efficiency and fulfill the agency's financial commitments for the fiscal year, reflecting a commitment to transparency and effective resource management.
