reprogramming to meet the agency’s revised spending plans.

FY 2026.
Why
are the funds needed?
This reprogramming is needed to address the following needs:
1. Ope
rating impact needs related to the opening of the new South East Library. These
needs include building maintenance and janitorial services, moving services, and alarm
monitoring and maintenance.
2. New cameras for the Petworth Neighborhood Library.
3. Moving services related to the refurbishment of the Shaw (Watha T. Daniel)
Neighborhood Library.
4. Additional funding for the West End Maintenance funds to ensure the budget is sufficient
to cover anticipated costs in FY 2026.
5. Funds to cover the expected DCPL share of the costs of the annual city-wide Single
Audit.

6. Funds for necessary water testing of lead levels in DCPL facilities.
7. Funds for paper and blood cleaning kits.
8. Additional supplies funds for the for use by Facilities to make purchase card purchases.
Do

Council?

D
oes 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.
H
ow will the funds be reprogrammed?
Surplus personnel services funds will be moved to the relevant non-personnel services budget
lines per the attached attributes worksheet. The funds for the Facilities purchase card supplies
will be moved from existing purchase card funds under professional services.
Wh
y are the funds available?
The surplus personnel services funds are the result of new FTE positions in FY 2026 that were
vacant until hiring actions could be completed. The Facilities purchase card funds are available
due to revised spending plans.
W
hat hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent fiscal
year?
If this reprogramming is postponed, DCPL will not be able to fully fund critical needs related to
the operating impacts of reopening three library branches, nor will it be able to support other
necessary non-personnel services requirements in FY 2026.
W
hat programs, services or other purchases will be delayed as a result of the action, and
the impact on the program or agency?
None.
