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
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026, approved February 3, 2026, Pub. Law No. 119- 75, the
Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) has reviewed the Mayor’s request to reprogram
Fiscal Year 2026 Local funds budget authority in the amount of $165,000 within the District of
Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) . The funds are needed to properly align the budget to support
agency operations.
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’ Central and School Supports Division,
from Account Group 701100C (Continuing Full Time) to Account Group 713100C (Other
Services and Charges). Funds are available in DCPS’ budget based on the original appropriation
but require reallocation to support agency operations.
The Honorable Phil Mendelson, Chairman
FY 2026 Reprogramming Request for $165,000 of Local Funds Budget Authority within the District of Columbia
Public Schools
Page 2
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 M. Lee
Chief Financial Officer

DATE: May 11, 2026
SUBJECT: FY 2026 Request to Reprogram $165,000.00 within the District of Columbia
Public Schools Local Funds Budget, Fund 1010001
The District of Columbia Public Schools requests to reprogram $165,000.00 within the agency’s
Local Fund 1010001 to align budgets to their proper needs in the FY 2026 budget.
Why are the funds needed?
During the budget development process for FY 2026 in November 2024, Professional Services
(7131009) lines were inadvertently miscoded as Continuing Full Time (7011001) in DIFS. This
$165,000 reprogramming fixes that inadvertent error.
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.
How will the funds be reprogrammed?
See the attached worksheet for details.
FY 2026 Request to Reprogram $165,000.00 within the District of Columbia Public Schools Local Funds Budget,
Fund 1010001
Page 2
Why are the funds available?
Due to a misalignment of DIFS attributes, non-personnel lines within the budget were miscoded
as personnel. They are not tied to an FTE, and no personnel reductions will occur as a result of
this reprogramming.
What hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent fiscal
year?
We risk being unable to pay vendors and lapsing on our Local dollars.
What programs, services or other purchases will be delayed as a result of the action, and
the impact on the program or agency?
No negative impact is anticipated as a result of this reprogramming.
Should you have any questions, please contact Brandon Hill at Brandon.Hill1@dc.gov.
