The Rev. Dr. Judy Talbert Way Designation Emergency Act of 2025 aims to symbolically designate a section of Alabama Avenue, SE, between Hartford Street, SE and Gainesville Street, SE, in honor of Rev. Dr. Judy Talbert. This designation is made under the authority of the Street and Alley Closing and Acquisition Procedures Act of 1982, which allows the Council to make such symbolic designations.
The act includes a provision for a fiscal impact statement, which is adopted from the Budget Director's assessment, and outlines the effective date of the act, stating it will take effect upon approval by the Mayor or following a Council override of a potential veto. The designation will remain in effect for a maximum of 90 days, in accordance with the emergency act provisions of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act.
