Title
A RESOLUTION CONCERNING MARYLAND-NATIONAL CAPITAL PARK AND PLANNING COMMISSION for the purpose of approving certain transfers of appropriations within the Park Fund of the Approved FY 2026 Operating Budget of the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission; and approving certain transfers of appropriations to the Approved Fiscal Year 2025-2031 Capital Improvement Program of the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission.
Background
This resolution amends the adopted FY 2026 Budget for the Prince George's County portion of the Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC). The FY 2026 Operating and Capital Budgets for M-NCPPC were adopted on May 29, 2025, by way of CB-055-2025. Title 18 of the Land Use Article, Annotated Code of Maryland, authorizes the County Council to amend the adopted M-NCPPC budget by way of resolution following a public hearing. The proposed amendments are made to address capital needs in the Southern portion of the County.
The resolution amends the current year budgets for the Park Fund and Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Within the Park Fund, the undesignated fund balance is reduced by $20 million to increase the PAYGO Transfer to the Capital Projects Fund. This Capital Projects transfer will be allocated within the CIP to the Temple Hills Community Center (Project 4.99.0331). The Land Use Article requires CIP amendments to be submitted to the Commission for comment at least 30 days prior to adoption.
