Prince George's County Council debated and approved amendments to CR66-2024, a resolution concerning transfers and appropriations for Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission program and park funds.
Committee staff summarized proposed allocations, including $10,000,000 for program support in the recreation fund and a park fund allocation described in the attachments. Council members proposed amendments to redirect certain line items; one amendment moved a $50,000 allocation from the District Heights Boys and Girls Club to Gethsemane United Methodist Church for capital repairs, and another created an additional $50,000 line for program support for a 'Judge Me Now' initiative. The amendments were discussed on the floor, seconded, and passed with recorded votes noted as carrying unanimously.
"I would like to make an amendment ... the original one is District Heights Boys and Girls Club Inc at 50,000 to Gethsemane United Methodist Church," a council member stated when offering the amendment. After roll call votes, the presiding officer announced the motions carried.
