B 25-0808 District of Columbia · 25th Council Period (2023-2024)

Lafayette Elementary School Grass Field Temporary Amendment Act of 2024

This bill temporarily requires the District of Columbia Department of General Services to install a natural grass field at Lafayette Elementary School. It achieves this by adding a specific provision to the existing Safe Fields and Playgrounds Act of 2018, mandating the construction at the school's designated location. The law includes a sunset clause that causes the requirement to expire automatically after 225 days of being in effect.
