Ward 8 Recreation Facility Temporary Amendment Act of 2025

This bill temporarily exempts District-built recreation centers in Ward 8 with indoor pools and gyms from net zero energy compliance requirements under the Green Building Act of 2006. Instead, it requires that Ward 8 recreation center indoor pools must meet at least LEED Silver standards. The exemption applies only to these specific facilities and expires 225 days after the bill takes effect. The change directly affects new or renovated Ward 8 recreation centers with indoor pools and gyms, altering their building standard requirements.
