Closing of a Cul-de-Sac in Square 4350, S.O. 22-05506, Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025

This emergency resolution declares the need to close a specific cul-de-sac on Douglas Street, N.E., in Ward 5 (Square 4350, Lot 0006) to support WMATA's Bladensburg Bus Garage Reconstruction Project. The closure directly affects residents and properties adjacent to this cul-de-sac, enabling the project to expand bus parking from 260 to 290 spots and improve infrastructure for WMATA's zero-emission bus transition. The resolution bypasses standard legislative steps to allow immediate action, as the project requires the closure before permanent legislation (Bill 26-166) is finalized. It takes effect immediately upon approval.
