B 26-0556: Fair Share Housing Targets Act of 2025

This bill requires the Mayor to set 5-year housing production and affordable housing targets for each of DC's 10 Planning Areas (neighborhood groupings used for planning), updating them every five years. The Mayor must track progress quarterly via a public dashboard showing unit counts and affordability levels, distinguishing new construction from preserved units. If a Planning Area misses its target, an independent evaluator must identify barriers and propose solutions within 120 days. It builds on DC's previous 36,000-unit housing goal (met ahead of schedule but unevenly across neighborhoods) to ensure equitable housing contributions citywide.

PR 26-0478: Energy Efficiency Financing Debt Cap Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025

This resolution declares an emergency to remove a $250 million debt cap on bonds issued under the Energy Efficiency Financing Act of 2010. It directly affects the District of Columbia's C-PACE program, which finances energy efficiency upgrades for buildings through property tax assessments. The resolution enables the DC Green Finance Authority to issue larger bonds - like a planned $470 million for The Geneva building conversion - without the existing cap, addressing current capacity constraints ($184 million used out of $250 million). It does not create new policy but removes a statutory barrier to meet market demand for energy efficiency projects.

B 26-0397: Zoning Decision Appeals Amendment Act of 2025

The Zoning Decision Appeals Amendment Act of 2025 streamlines appeals of zoning decisions in Washington D.C. by restricting who can appeal and tightening procedural requirements. It limits appeals to property owners within 200 feet who raised concerns during the original process, those granted party status, or designated historic preservation groups, while requiring appeals to be filed within 30 days and demonstrate specific, previously raised harm. Courts may now require bonds up to $250,000 to cover delays and award attorney fees for frivolous appeals. This primarily affects developers seeking faster approvals for housing/retail projects and community members challenging zoning decisions, aiming to reduce delays from non-meritorious appeals.
