PR 26-0263 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

Closing of a Portion of a Public Alley in Square 3524, S.O. 23-06402, Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025

This emergency resolution (PR 26-0263) authorizes the immediate closure of a specific portion of a public alley in Square 3524, Ward 5, to consolidate adjacent land. It enables the development of 27 residential units (including 3 affordable family-sized homes) in the Eckington neighborhood by allowing the alley to be reconfigured for housing. The resolution cites urgent project abandonment risks due to high costs, requiring expedited approval without standard review steps. It directly affects the developer, future residents, and public access to the alley, with no objection from relevant agencies.
