Board of Trustees of the University of the District of Columbia Albert Cacozza Confirmation Resolution of 2025

This is a procedural confirmation resolution, not a policy bill. It formally confirms Mayor Bowser's appointment of Albert Cacozza to fill a vacant seat on the University of the District of Columbia Board of Trustees, previously held by Mignon Clyburn. The resolution specifies his term runs to May 15, 2029, and requires the Council to transmit the confirmation to the nominee and Mayor's office. It does not establish new policies or affect any programs - its sole purpose is to approve the appointment.

MINOR
This is a confirmation resolution for Albert Cacozza to the Board of Trustees of the University of the District of Columbia. The bill moved from its introduction stage (a nomination letter with proposed resolution and resume) to enrollment as a formal Council resolution numbered 26-313, dated February 3, 2026. The substantive appointment is unchanged: Cacozza serves for a term ending May 15, 2029.
TIMELINE

The resolution year changed from 2025 to 2026, reflecting the actual date of Council action (February 3, 2026) rather than the original nomination date (November 26, 2025).

SCOPE

The phrase 'filling a vacant seat formerly held by Mignon Clyburn' was removed from Section 2. The enrolled resolution simply states the term ends May 15, 2029 without identifying the predecessor.

REQUIREMENT

Section 3 now requires the Council to transmit a copy of the resolution to the Board of Trustees of the University of the District of Columbia in addition to the nominee and the Mayor. The introduction version only required transmission to the nominee and the Office of the Mayor.
