Are you interested in volunteering to serve on an ANC 6B committee or task force? I’m seeking 6B09residents to serve as resident members on the following ANC 6B committees/task forces:
- Alcoholic Beverage Control Committee
- Planning and Zoning Committee
- Hill East Task Force
- Outreach & Constituent Services Task Force
Each Commissioner can recruit one resident member per committee and multiple resident members for task forces. Resident members must reside in the Commissioner’s Single Member District.
Service as a resident member involves attending monthly committee or task force meetings, listening to cases, participating in discussion and voting on recommendations to the full commission. ANC 6B recently amended our bylaws to allow resident members a vote in committee.
Here is a listing of ANC 6B’s committees/task forces and their leadership:
Planning and Zoning Committee

Meeting Schedule: 1st Tuesday of the month (except August)
Chair: Commissioner Francis Campbell (6B10)

If you are interested in representing 6B09 on a committee or task force, please contact me at brianf6b09@anc6b.org or 202-744-1854. I hope to bring the names of resident member candidates before the full commission in September. Once approved, resident members serve for a period of one year (typically February to February).
Thank you for considering this opportunity to strengthen our neighborhood and ANC 6B.
