Closing of a Portion of a Public Alley in Square 3524, S.O. 23-06402, Emergency Act of 2025

This bill proposes closing a 20-foot-wide portion of a public alley in Square 3524 (Ward 5) to consolidate adjacent private lots. It directly affects property owners (Lots 52, 53, 54, 802, and 892) and requires District Department of Transportation (DDOT) approval for two conditions: payment of $4,265 to remove street lighting and approval of a tree protection plan for a special tree on the site. The closure enables the development of 27 residential units (combining two-family townhouses and single-family homes) on the consolidated land. The bill is contingent on satisfying all conditions in the surveyor’s file before final approval.
