Bill > B26-0364

This bill aims to officially designate the school located in Lot 33 in Square 792, which is bounded by North Carolina Avenue, S.E., 4th Street, S.E., D Street, S.E., and 3rd Street, S.E. in Ward 6, as the "Gardner Bishop Elementary School". The bill relies on sections 401 and 422 of the Street and Alley Closing and Acquisition Procedures Act of 1982 to make this designation. The act will take effect after receiving mayoral approval (or a council override of a potential mayoral veto), completing a 30-day congressional review period as required by the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, and being published in the District of Columbia Register. The Council has also adopted the fiscal impact statement from the committee report, which assesses the potential financial implications of the school redesignation. The bill is primarily a procedural measure to formally name the school after Gardner Bishop, likely honoring a local educator or community leader.
