Bill Summary

A BILL IN THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA To symbolically designate the 4800 block of 7th Street, N.E., in Ward 5, as Joseph Bowser Way.

AI Summary

This bill symbolically designates the 4800 block of 7th Street, N.E., in Ward 5, as "Joseph Bowser Way" in accordance with the Street and Alley Closing and Acquisition Procedures Act of 1982. The symbolic designation is a way to honor an individual by naming a street segment after them, which does not change the actual street address or require physical signage. The bill includes standard legislative provisions for fiscal impact and effective date, specifying that the act will take effect after mayoral approval (or mayoral veto override), a 30-day congressional review period as required by the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, and publication in the District of Columbia Register. The bill does not provide details about Joseph Bowser or the reason for the street naming, focusing solely on the symbolic designation of the street segment.
