Fiscal Year 2026 Income Tax Secured Revenue Bond, General Obligation Bond and General Obligation and Income Tax Secured Bond Anticipation Note Issuance Authorization Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025
This resolution authorizes the District of Columbia to issue up to $1.81 billion in bonds (including income tax secured, general obligation, and anticipation notes) to fund capital projects approved in the District's Fiscal Year 2026 Budget and Financial Plan. It is an emergency measure to enable timely bond issuance for projects already underway or planned, ensuring access to favorable market conditions without requiring a full legislative process.

MODERATE
The document transitioned from a cover letter requesting emergency legislative approval to the actual enrolled resolution text. The resolution itself was updated with minor formatting and numbering changes while maintaining the same core purpose of authorizing bond issuance for capital projects.
TECHNICAL
Removed the cover letter from the Chief Financial Officer dated September 29, 2025, which was a transmittal document rather than part of the legislative text itself.
Added the enrolled header indicating this is the official enrolled version of the resolution.
Changed the resolution title to include a bill number (26-208) and updated formatting of the resolution text including punctuation and line breaks.
Added a date stamp (October 7, 2025) to the resolution header indicating when it was enrolled.
