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 $44,251 within the
District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) . The funds are needed to purchase E -learning
equipment and furniture for Cleveland Elementary 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 budget of DCPS of more than $500,000.
This action will reprogram budget authority within DCPS’ Schools division, from Account Groups
711100C (Supplies and Materials ), 713100C ( Other Services and Charges ), and 717100C
(Purchases Equipment and Machinery) to Account Groups 713100C (Other Services and Charges),
and 717100C (Purchases Equipment and Machinery). 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 $44,251 of Local Funds Budget Authority within the District of Columbia

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
