4048215 Resolution 19-681, "Reprogramming $1,271,500 to Pay-As-You-Go Capital Budget for the Oak Hill Facility Campus Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2012"

A RESOLUTION

19-681

IN THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

November 1, 2012

 

 

 

To declare the existence of an emergency with respect to the need to approve the reprogramming request of $1,271,500 from within the District of Columbia National Guard.  

 

RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Reprogramming $1,271,500 to Pay-As-You-Go Capital Budget for the Oak Hill Facility Campus Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2012”.

 

Sec. 2. (a) The Executive submitted this reprogramming to the Council on October 26, 2012 in order to transfer $1.3 million from within the D.C. National Guard (DCNG) through the Pay-as-you-go capital budget.  These funds will be used to make needed repairs at the Oak Hill facility campus.

(b) This emergency is necessary in order to actively approve the Fiscal Year 2012 reprogramming before the Congressionally mandated deadline of November 1, 2012.  This means that there is no time to wait for the traditional passive approval whereby most reprogrammings become approved.  Therefore, it is necessary for the Council to actively approve this reprogramming on an emergency basis.  Any delay will prevent these funds from being transferred.       

(c) As a result of the fiscal year 2012 close-out, some agencies had unspent funds due to efficiencies implemented by those agencies during Fiscal Year 2012.  Those funds are for fiscal year 2012 and can only be reprogrammed to the non-lapsing Pay-as-you-go capital budget.  This reprogramming converts the funds to Pay-as-you-go capital and remains available for capital eligible purposes. 

 

Sec. 3. The Council of the District of Columbia determines that the circumstances enumerated in section 2 constitute emergency circumstances making it necessary that the Reprogramming $1,271,500 to Pay-As-You-Go Capital Budget for the Oak Hill Facility Campus Emergency Approval Resolution of 2012 be adopted on an emergency basis.

 

Sec. 4. This resolution shall take effect immediately.
