The Honorable Phil Mendelson
Chairman
Council of the District of Columbia
John A. Wilson Building
1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Suite 504
Washington, DC 20004-3001
Dear Chairman Mendelson:
Pursuant to the Reprogramming Policy Act of 1980, D.C. Official Code § 47-363(a) and the Full-
Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025, approved March 15, 2025, Pub. L. No.
119-4, the Office of the Chief Financial Officer has reviewed the Mayor’s request to reprogram
Capital funds budget authority and allotment in the amount of $2,500,000 from the District of
Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) to the Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR).
This reprogramming realigns capital funds from the DCPS Major Repair and Maintenance project
to the Harry Thomas Recreation Center to fund a geothermal well system for DCPS and DPR.
Capital budget in the amount of $2,500,000 will be reprogrammed from the following project:
Agency Project Title Amount
GA0/AM0 100065 AM0.GM121C.MAJOR
REPAIRS/MAINTENANCE - DCPS $ 2,500,000.00
Total $ 2,500,000.00
Capital budget in the amount of $2,500,000 will be reprogrammed to the following project:
Agency Project Title Amount
HA0/AM0 100160 AM0.QE334C.HARRY THOMAS
RECREATION CENTER $ 2,500,000.00
Total $ 2,500,000.00
Capital funds are available to reprogram from the D CPS Major Repair and Maintenance project
because DCPS budgeted funds for the geothermal well. The budget must be moved to the
appropriate project for expenditure. DCPS and DPR have agreed to share the geothermal well at
the Harry Thomas Recreational Center and Langley Elementary School.

The Office of Budget and Planning’s analysis indicates that the reprogramming will not have an
adverse impact on the DCPS and DPR’s budget or the District’s financial plan. The OCFO has no
objection to this reprogramming request.
Sincerely,
Glen Lee

MEMORANDUM
TO: Tomas Talamante
Director, Office of Policy and Legislative Affairs
Executive Office of the Mayor
FROM: Dr. Lewis D. Ferebee
Chancellor
District of Columbia Public Schools
DATE: March 21, 2025
SUBJECT: FY2025 Request to Reprogram Capital Budget in the Amount of $2,500,000.00
from DCPS (Owner AGY)/DGS (Implementing AGY) to Department of Parks
& Recreation (DPR) (Owner AGY)/DGS (Implementing AGY)
The District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) requests to reprogram FY25 capital budget
funds in the amount of $2,500,000.00 to the Department of Parks and Recreation capital budget
(100160 / QE334C.HARRY THOMAS RECREATION CENTER) in order to fund a geothermal
well system at this facility that will benefit both DCPS and DPR needs. This reprogramming is
required per Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) regulations which require funds used
for a particular agency’s facilities to first be reprogrammed to that agency’s capital budget.
Why are the funds needed?
The funds are needed to construct a geothermal field at the Harry Thomas Recreation Center Field.
This field will be constructed during the modernization of Harry Thomas RC and can be utilized
by both Harry Thomas RC and the adjacent Langley Elementary School. This will allow both
facilities to reduce energy consumption from their HVAC systems and assist the District in
meeting its sustainability goals. Both DCPS and DPR will fund the well system that will benefit
both DCPS and DPR facilities, but, since the geothermal field will be on DPR property, the DCPS
portion of funding must be reprogrammed to the DPR capital budget per OCFO regulations.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
John A. Wilson Building | 1350 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Suite 513 | Washington, DC 20004
Does this reprogramming restore a budget cut authorized by the Mayor and/or Council?
No.
Does this reprogramming establish new programs or change allocations specifically denied,
limited, or increased by the Council in the budget act, the accompanying budget report, or
mark-up sheets?
No.
How will the funds be reprogrammed?
Funds will be reprogrammed FROM the following projects.
Agency PROJECT TITLE Amount
GA0/AM0 100065 AM0.GM121.MAJOR
REPAIRS/MAINTENANCE - DCPS
($2,500,000.00)
TOTAL ($2,500,000.00)
Funds will be reprogrammed TO the following projects:
HA0/AM0 100160 QE334C.HARRY THOMAS RECREATION
CENTER
$2,500,000.00
TOTAL $2,500,000.00
Why are the funds available?
Capital budget in the amount of $2,500,000.00 is available to reprogram because the purpose of
the funding is for the above-mentioned projects.
What hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent fiscal
year?
The District will not be able to make improvements at these three facilities to help meet the
District’s energy efficiency goals. Further, the funds will not be able to be used towards their
intended purpose since this reprogramming is required per OCFO regulations.
