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 $162,491 within the
Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR).

This reprogramming is below the $500,000 threshold amount requiring approval by Council.
However, another reprogramming from DPR has already been approved, and this reprogramming
would result in a cumulative change to the budget of DPR of more than $500,000. Budget authority
is needed to support agency judgements, indemnities, supplies and travel expenses.

This action will reprogram budget authority between DPR’s Agency Management, Recreation
Center Operations, and Recreation Services and Programming divisions, from Account Groups
711100C ( Supplies and Materials), 712100C ( Energy, Communication and Building Rentals ),
713100C (Other Services and Charges), and 717100C (Purchases Equipment and Machinery), to
Account Groups 711100C (Supplies and Materials) and 713100C ( Other Services and Charges).
Budget authority is available based on the original appropriation but require reprogramming to
meet programmatic requirements.

The Honorable Phil Mendelson, Chairman
FY 2025 Reprogramming Request for $162,491 of Local Funds Budget Authority within the Department of Parks
and Recreation

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

Sincerely,

Glen Lee
Chief Financial Officer

SUBJECT: FY 2025 Reprogramming Request for $162,491.13 of Local Funds
The Department of Parks and Recreation is requesting a reprogramming of $162,491.13 in Local funds
budget authority within the agency for the various expenses.
Why are the funds needed?
Funding is needed to provide funding for agency judgments, indemnities, supplies and travel.
Is this a reprogramming to restore a budget cut authorized by the Mayor and/or Council?
No
How will the funds be reprogrammed?
The attached budget journal provides details.
Why are the funds available?
The funding is available because the agency is unable to expend the funds as currently allocated.
What hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent fiscal year?
The agency would not be able to manage the logistics for Recreation Services & Programming.
What programs, services or other purchases will be delayed as a result of the action, and the
impact on the program or agency?
See response above.
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.
Should you have any questions, please contact Rosemarie CheeWah via MS Teams.
