Historic Preservation Review Board Timothy Thomas Confirmation Resolution of 2025

This resolution confirms Mayor Muriel Bowser's appointment of Timothy Thomas to the Historic Preservation Review Board, filling a vacant seat previously held by Linda Greene for the remainder of her unexpired term ending July 21, 2028. The Council of the District of Columbia must formally adopt this resolution to approve the appointment, which is a standard procedural step for confirming board members under District law. It does not create new policy or alter existing regulations - only ratifies a specific nomination. The resolution directly affects the Historic Preservation Review Board's composition and the Mayor's appointment process.

MINOR

The bill moved from Introduction to Enrollment, converting a proposed resolution (with Mayor's letter, biographical information, and legal review memo) into a clean enrolled resolution. The substantive changes are minor: the year in the title changed from 2025 to 2026, and the language 'filling a vacant seat formerly held by Linda Greene, for the remainder of an unexpired term' was simplified to just 'for a term to end July 21, 2028.'

TECHNICAL

The resolution title year changed from 'Confirmation Resolution of 2025' to 'Confirmation Resolution of 2026,' reflecting the actual date of Council action (February 3, 2026).

Section 3 changed 'Office of the Mayor' to 'the Mayor' as the recipient of the transmitted copy.

SCOPE

Removed the reference to Linda Greene and the phrase 'remainder of an unexpired term.' The enrolled version simply states Thomas is confirmed 'for a term to end July 21, 2028,' without identifying whose seat he is filling.
