Bill Summary
An Act Making appropriations to provide for the expenses of the government of the District of Columbia for fiscal year ending June thirtieth, eighteen hundred and ninety- five, and for other purposes, to require the Department of Transportation to produce a plan and estimated budget to improve all currently unimproved or “paper” alleys.
AI Summary
This bill requires the District of Columbia's Department of Transportation (DDOT) to develop a comprehensive plan for improving "paper alleys" by March 15, 2026. Paper alleys are defined as unpaved or partially paved alleyways. The plan must include a publicly posted map identifying the locations and ownership of all known paper alleys in the District, detailed plans for inspecting and estimating repair costs for each alley to meet DDOT standards, and a strategy for engaging neighboring residents and Advisory Neighborhood Commissions to gather community input. The bill mandates two cost estimates: one for fully repairing all paper alleys in the District, and another for repairing alleys with sufficient community support. Additionally, DDOT must create a framework for prioritizing alley improvements, with a focus on low-income communities and high-usage alleys. The bill aims to systematically address the infrastructure and community needs related to these currently underdeveloped urban passageways.
