MEMORANDUM

               

TO:              Nyasha Smith, Secretary to the Council

             

FROM:        Phil Mendelson, Chairman

                                                       

DATE:                July 16, 2020

 

RE:          Emergency Legislation for the July 21, 2020 Legislative Meeting

 

                               

                This memorandum serves as notice that I intend to move the following measures at the July 21, 2020 additional legislative meeting:

 

§  PR 23-820, “Fiscal Year 2020 Revised Local Budget Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2020”

§  Bill 23-763, “Fiscal Year 2020 Revised Local Budget Emergency Act of 2020”

 

                The measures listed above were introduced at the request of the Mayor on May 18, 2020 as part of the Fiscal Year 2021 budget package.  The emergency legislation adjusts the approved FY20 local budget appropriations as approved by the Council last year.  The adjustments are set forth in the Mayor’s transmittal letter, dated May 18, 2020, included with the legislation. The proposed spending includes repaying contingency cash allocations, addressing spending pressures, and other unforeseen or nonrecurring agency needs.

 

                Please note that I intend to move an Amendment in the Nature of a Substitute (ANS) for each of these items at next week’s meeting; the ANS versions will circulate on Monday, July 20, 2020.

 

                Please contact me or Jennifer Budoff, Council Budget Director, if you have any questions.
