Reservoir Park Recreation Center Designation Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2024

This bill officially names the new public park and recreation center at the former McMillan Sand Filtration site as the "Reservoir Park Recreation Center." The legislation designates the facility, which includes a pool, fitness center, and green spaces, to align with the adjacent neighborhood name and distance the location from the controversial history associated with Senator James McMillan. By declaring an emergency, the bill allows the District to install signage immediately so the center can open to the public in June 2024 without waiting for the full legislative process to complete.
