Mayor Muriel Bowser has requested the reprogramming of $1,000,000 in FY 2025 Capital Funds from the Department of General Services (DGS) to the Department of Corrections (DOC) to support the Elevator Upgrade Project at the Correctional Treatment Facility (CTF). This reallocation is necessary to ensure the operational status of the elevators, which are critical for safety and accessibility within the facility. The funds will be transferred from the Emergency Power System Upgrades project, which has sufficient resources to accommodate this change without negatively impacting the budgets of either department or the District's overall financial plan.

The Chief Financial Officer, Glen Lee, has reviewed the request and confirmed that the reprogramming will not adversely affect the financial standing of the DGS or DOC. The resolution emphasizes the importance of this funding adjustment as part of a broader strategy to effectively manage departmental budgets and enhance public safety infrastructure. It also provides a detailed financial report on various budgetary allocations, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring to ensure fiscal accountability and transparency within the legislative framework.
