Bill > B26-0216

This bill orders the closing of a portion of the former Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge Right of Way located on Lot 817 in Square 708 in Southeast Washington, DC (Ward 8). The bill is being enacted under the District of Columbia Home Rule Act and the Street and Alley Closing and Acquisition Procedures Act, and officially declares that this specific right of way is no longer necessary for street purposes. The legislation allows the title to the land to be transferred as specified in a surveyor's plat (document) identified by Survey Order (S.O.) 23-05325. The act will become effective after mayoral approval (or potential veto override) and a 30-day congressional review period, which is standard procedure for DC legislation under the Home Rule Act. The bill also includes an adopted fiscal impact statement, which assesses the potential financial implications of the right of way closure.
