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
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026, approved February 3, 2026, Pub. Law. No. 119-75, the
Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) has re viewed the Mayor’s request to reprogram
Capital funds budget authority and allotment in the amount of $5,912,217 within the Department
of Behavioral Health (DBH).
This request reprograms capital funds from several system upgrades and improvements projects
related to Saint Elizabeths Hospital to a newly established capital project. The funds will
subsequently be transferred to an inter-agency capital project to facilitate vendor billing related to
the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Department of Geneal Services (DGS).
Capital budget in the amount of $5,912,217 will be reprogrammed from the following projects:
Agency Project Title Amount
RM0/RM0 100973 RM0.HX990C.FACILITY UPGRADES $ 132,217.00
RM0/RM0 101268 Air Handler Unit Overhaul SEH $ 3,000,000.00
RM0/RM0 101269 Building Automation System Replacement $ 1,000,000.00
RM0/RM0 101270 Emergency Water Bypass Line $ 280,000.00
RM0/RM0 101274 RM0.FY25.Fire Safety System Overhaul $ 1,500,000.00
Total $ 5,912,217.00
Capital budget in the amount of $5,912,217 will be reprogrammed to the following new project:
February 19, 2026
Honorable Phil Mendelson
FY 2026 Reprogramming Request for $5,912,217 of Capital Funds Budget Authority and Allotment within the
Department of Behavioral Health
Agency Project Title Amount
RM0/RM0 101449 MEP AND LIFE SAFETY UPGRADES $ 5,912,217.00
Total $ 5,912,217.00
Capital funds in the amount of $5,912,217 are available in various DBH capital projects because
the funding is being redirected to a new project that aligns with an MOU between DGS and DBH.
This new project will allow DGS to bill more efficiently and timely.
The Office of Budget and Planning’s analysis indicates that the reprogramming will not have an
adverse impact on DBH’s budget or the District’s financial plan. The OCFO has no objection to
this reprogramming request.

Glen M. Lee

performed.

Why are the funds available?
The Capital budget is available in the amount $5,912,217.00 to reprogram in the above

reprogramming will ensure that the budget is disbursed for its intended use from the
appropriate agency fund.
What hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent
fiscal year?
If this action is postponed, there are expected to be billing issues with the vendor that will
implement the system upgrades and necessary improvements at SEH.
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?
This reprogramming will not establish a new program or change allocations specifically
denied, limited, or increased by the Council in the budget act, the accompanying budget
report, or mark-up sheets.
