Closing of a Public Alley in Square 3701, S.O. 23-06220, Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2024
This resolution declares an emergency to immediately close a 10-foot-wide public alley in Ward 5, affecting the owners of Lots 85 and 88. The primary goal is to merge these lots into one so that an affordable housing project with underground parking can begin construction without further delays. Because permanent legislation for this closure will not be fully reviewed by Congress until September, this emergency measure allows the project to move forward right away. The resolution takes effect immediately and serves as a temporary step until the permanent law is passed later in the year.
