The bill submitted by Mayor Muriel Bowser outlines the proposed modifications to the FY 2024 Grant Budget for the District of Columbia, as mandated by the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2024 and Other Extensions Act. The modifications include several federal grant requests across various agencies, such as the Office of the State Superintendent of Education and the District Department of Transportation. Notable grants include funding for child care development, urban and community initiatives, and a summer food service program, with total budget requests amounting to over $1.8 million.

The proposed modifications aim to establish new grant programs and enhance existing initiatives without any COVID-related implications. Each grant request is accompanied by a specific budget amount and the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) positions associated with the funding. The Mayor's office has made staff available for any inquiries regarding these budget modifications, indicating a commitment to transparency and collaboration with the Council of the District of Columbia.
