This law sets year-by-year funding caps for the Kennedy Center from fiscal years 2020 through 2024: rising amounts for maintenance, repair, and security, and separately for capital projects. It also authorizes $400 million total through 2010 for the Kennedy Center Plaza roadway project, and open-ended funding for the rooftop solar system. None of this money may pay for actual arts productions, performing-arts staff, or related marketing and fundraising costs.

(a) Maintenance, repair, and security: Congress may appropriate to the Board, to carry out maintenance, repair, and security duties under section 76j(a)(1)(H): $25,690,000 for fiscal year 2020; $27,000,000 for 2021; $28,000,000 for 2022; $29,000,000 for 2023; and $30,000,000 for 2024. (b) Capital projects: Congress may appropriate to the Board, for capital-repair and building-needs-plan duties under section 76j(a)(1)(F) and (G): $17,800,000 for 2020; $18,000,000 for 2021; $19,000,000 for 2022; $20,000,000 for 2023; and $21,000,000 for 2024. (c) John F. Kennedy Center Plaza: Congress may appropriate to the Secretary of Transportation, for capital costs of planning, designing, engineering, and building the Plaza project under section 76q–1 (including roadway work at the North and South Interchanges, but not construction of Plaza buildings), a total of $400,000,000 for fiscal years 2003 through 2010. This money stays available until spent. (d) Photovoltaic system: Congress may appropriate to the Board whatever sums are necessary to carry out the rooftop solar project under section 76m, staying available until spent. (e) Limitation on use of funds: None of this appropriated money may pay for direct expenses of producing a performing-arts show, for staff involved in performing-arts administration (or their supplies and equipment), or for production, staging, public relations, marketing, fundraising, ticket sales, or education. Money appropriated directly to the Board doesn't reduce or replace other federal funding sought for performing-arts purposes, and may be used to reimburse the Board for the share of building-services and theater maintenance/repair costs that are properly federal costs.
