ANC 6B’s September meeting is tonight (Tues., Sept. 13), 7:00 pm at St. Coletta of Greater Washington, 1901 Independence Avenue SE. The agenda includes three items of particular interest to our neighborhood:
- The commission will be voting on Douglas Development’s application for a parking variance and a roof requirement special exception at 1442 Pennsylvania Avenue SE, the old KFC site. The case is currently on the consent agenda but can be removed by any commissioner. Attendees will have an opportunity to comment on the proposed plans during the community speakout portion of the agenda.
- Representatives from the Ward 6 Redistricting Task Force will be in attendance to get the commission’s feedback on their draft redistricting plan and on an ANC 6C proposal to move the western portion of ANC 6B into ANC 6C. I plan to voice my opposition to 6C’s proposal, which would lead to a dramatic re-drawing of the single member district boundaries in Hill East. You can read more on the task force blog.
- I’ll provide a brief update on the July 27th Hill East Task Force meeting.
The commission will also vote on approving resident members to ANC 6B committees and task forces. Many thanks to Ksenia, Kate, Keith, Darren and Evan for volunteering to represent 6B09.
Hope to see you tonight!
