San Romero Plaza Designation Act of 2025

This bill designates a specific public right-of-way at Sacred Heart Way and 16th Street NW in Ward 1 as "San Romero Plaza." It honors Archbishop Oscar Romero, a global symbol of justice and compassion who advocated for marginalized communities before his assassination in 1980. The naming follows community input and aligns with efforts to revitalize public spaces in the neighborhood, as noted in the Columbia Heights and Mt. Pleasant Public Life Study. The bill has no financial impact or new policy requirements beyond the name change.
