The resolution submitted by Mayor Muriel Bowser requests the reprogramming of $1,491,894.11 within the Fiscal Year 2026 budget for the Office of Lottery and Gaming. This reprogramming is necessary to align the budget with revised spending projections for personnel, contractual, and operational costs. The request is made in accordance with the Reprogramming Policy Act of 1980, and the detailed justification for the reallocation of funds is provided in the accompanying memorandum. The funds will be reallocated among various account groups to ensure that the agency can meet its financial obligations without impacting the overall budget or financial plan of the District.

The Chief Financial Officer, Glen Lee, has reviewed the Mayor's request and indicated that the reprogramming will not adversely affect the Office of Lottery and Gaming's budget or the District's financial plan. The reallocation will allow for timely disbursements from the appropriate accounts, ensuring that the agency can continue its operations effectively. The resolution emphasizes the importance of this reprogramming to avoid delays in payments and maintain operational efficiency within the agency.
