Bill > PR26-0287

This emergency resolution declares an urgent need to officially designate the public alley system within Square 1084 as "Elmore-Friendship Court" in order to help a property owner obtain necessary District agency approvals for redeveloping an existing carriage house into a residential unit. The resolution notes that the Elmore-Friendship Court Designation Act of 2025 was passed on July 28, 2025, and that emergency legislation is required to allow the property owner to secure permits and utility locations before the permanent legislation completes its mandatory 30-day congressional review period. The Council of the District of Columbia finds that these circumstances constitute an emergency warranting adoption of the act after a single reading, and the resolution will take effect immediately upon passage.
