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 (OCFO) has reviewed the Mayor’s request to
reprogram Fiscal Year 202 5 Local funds budget authority in the amount of $76,000 within the
District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) . The funds are needed to properly align the budget
to support spending for Kelly Miller Middle School.

This reprogramming is below the $500,000 threshold amount requiring approval by the Council.
However, another reprogramming from DCPS has already been approved, and this reprogramming
would result in a cumulative change to the DCPS budget of more than $500,000.

This action will reprogram budget authority within DCPS’ Schools division, from Account Group
713100C (Other Services and Charges) to Account Groups 711100C (Supplies and Materials) and
713200C (Contractual Services – Other). Funds are available in DCPS’ budget based on the
original appropriation but require reallocation to properly align school budgets.
The Honorable Phil Mendelson, Chairman
FY 2025 Reprogramming Request for $76,000 of Local Funds Budget Authority within the District of Columbia
Public Schools

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

Sincerely,

Glen Lee
Chief Financial Officer
