20-762

IN THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

December 17, 2014

 

To declare the existence of an emergency with respect to the need to increase certain appropriations in the Fiscal Year 2015 Budget Request Act pursuant to the District of Columbia Appropriations Act, 2015.

RESOLVED, BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this resolution may be cited as the “Fiscal Year 2015 Revised Budget Request Adjustment Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2014”.

 

Sec. 2.  The Mayor and the Council have been working together in recent weeks to propose a viable plan in order to fund one-time operating and capital costs of the DC United Soccer Stadium at the selected Buzzard Point site that were unanticipated at the time the Fiscal Year 2015 budget was approved.  This legislation addresses that need by securing the necessary operating and capital spending authority.  This legislation provides a streamlined funding mechanism in order to allocate the necessary funding. 

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 Fiscal Year 2015 Revised Budget Request Emergency Adjustment Act of 2014 be adopted after a single reading.

 

Sec. 4. This resolution shall take effect immediately.
