Sensible Pool Building Emergency Amendment Act of 2025

This bill exempts new District government-built natatoriums (public swimming pools) in Ward 8 from the net zero energy requirements of the Green Building Act, while requiring them to meet at least LEED Silver certification standards. It directly affects Ward 8 natatorium projects funded by the District government. The key change modifies the Green Building Act to remove the net zero energy mandate for these specific facilities and mandates a minimum LEED Silver level for construction. The bill is structured as an emergency amendment with a 90-day expiration period.
