MEMORANDUM
TO: Office of Policy and Legislative Affairs
FROM: Jennifer Reed
Director, Office of Budget and Performance Management, OCA
DATE: September 30, 2025
SUBJECT: FY 2025 Year-End Reprogramming Request of Operating Local Funds
This memo requests reprogramming $18,8 83,432.50 of Fiscal Year 2025 operating Local Funds
from various agencies to the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD), Settlements and Judgement
Fund (S&J), Department on Disability Services (DDS), and Department of Human Services (DHS)
to address year-end spending pressures.
Why are the funds needed?
The funds are needed to address higher than anticipated FY 2025 expenditures as described below.
• Metropolitan Police Department (MPD): incurred higher than anticipated overtime
costs.
• Settlements and Judgements Fund (S&J): incurred higher than anticipated costs due to
settlements and judgements.
• Department of Human Services (DHS) : incurred higher than anticipated costs due to
unanticipated needs for low-barrier shelters.
• Department on Disability Services (DDS): incurred higher than anticipated costs due to
the Home and Community -Based Services (HCBS) Intellectual and Developmental
Disabilities (IDD) waiver.
Is this a reprogramming to 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.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________
John A. Wilson Building | 1350 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Suite 513 | Washington, DC 20004
How will the funds be reprogrammed?
See the attached attributes sheet for det ails.
Why are the funds available?
Funds are available because of less-than-anticipated fees and issuance costs for debt service
and local savings.
What hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent fiscal year?
Without this
reprogramming, MPD, S&J, DHS, and DDS will not be able to cover the
unanticipated FY 2025 costs. This may result in the District violating anti-deficiency rules.
What programs, services or other purchase s will be de layed because of the action , and the
impact on the program or agency?
No projects will be negatively impacted because of this reprogramming.
Should you have any questi ons, please contact Ja son Kim, De puty Budge t Director, Office of
