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, as failing to complete the upgrades could lead to non-operational elevators at the facility. The Chief Financial Officer, Glen Lee, has reviewed the request and confirmed that the reprogramming will not negatively impact the budgets of either the DGS or the DOC, nor the District's overall financial plan.

The resolution emphasizes the importance of this funding transfer, which will come from the Emergency Power System Upgrades project, identified as having sufficient resources to accommodate the change. The reprogramming is aimed at enhancing public safety infrastructure and ensuring the timely completion of critical upgrades within the correctional facility. The financial report accompanying the resolution provides a detailed overview of budgetary allocations and balances, reflecting a structured approach to managing resources effectively while maintaining transparency and accountability in budget management.
