The Lenora Baker Way Designation Act of 2026 aims to symbolically designate a section of 3rd Street, SW, between I Street, SW, and M Street, SW, as Lenora Baker Way. This act is enacted by the Council of the District of Columbia and follows the procedures outlined in the Street and Alley Closing and Acquisition Procedures Act of 1982.

Additionally, the bill includes a fiscal impact statement that has been adopted from the committee report, fulfilling the requirements of the General Legislative Procedures Act of 1975. The act will take effect after receiving approval from the Mayor, or if vetoed, following the Council's action to override the veto, along with a 30-day congressional review period as stipulated in the District of Columbia Home Rule Act.
