HR 4984 United States House · 118th Congress

D.C. Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium Campus Revitalization Act

The D.C. Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium Campus Revitalization Act transfers administrative control of the 174-acre Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium Campus from the federal government to the District of Columbia. This allows the District to develop the campus for residential, commercial, and public purposes, including designating at least 30% as "Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Park" for recreation. The District must pay all transfer and development costs, maintain public access to the Anacostia River, and follow specific environmental and development requirements. The transfer is for a minimum of 99 years, with provisions for federal reversion if the District fails to meet requirements. The bill also repeals the 1957 Stadium Act and terminates a 1988 lease agreement.
