Is UHOP ever going to be a good neighbor and give us advance notice of their events. I have mentioned a possible need for weekend zoned parking in the past and after this weekend I’m bringing up the subject again.
Posted in Opinion, Events, Transportation, DevelopmentThis month, Busboys and Poets was kind enough to offer the second floor of their new restaurant and some lip-smacking finger foods for our meeting. I felt it was a big success and hope we can return their soon. Thanks, Busboys!
Our guests tonight included Chris Otten of the DC Library Dynamos, and ANC candidates Theresa Sule and Jessica Lanza.
Here are the meeting notes.

ANC 2C meets tomorrow 10/1 at 6:30pm I think. Presumably at Kennedy Rec., the agenda is a total mystery. No meeting notice has been provided. Actually MVSNA never gets a meeting notice from either of our Commissioners, Doris Brooks or Barbara Curtis or their controlling unelected “Parliamentarian” Leroy Thorpe. Usually ANC 2C02 Commissioner Chapple posts it on his website but perhaps he didn’t get one either, that has happened a lot too.
This needs to stop. I urge you all in ANC 2C to make sure you are registered to vote by the deadline, October 6th and please VOTE! There are viable candidates challenging the incumbent Commissioners Brooks & Curtis. Please take a look at Theresa Sule running for 2C04 and Jessica Lanza running for 2C03.
Recently an ANC candidate, Sarah Livingston, published her latest edition of the Seventh Streeter with some thought provoking commentary on ANC 2C. Whether you agree with her conclusions or not, it is worth a read. Commentary & discussion on FifthandOh and ANC2C02.
P.S. A warm welcome back, Daddy5Oh, to shaw bloggin.

In addition to the awesome MVTriangle blog’s excellent coverage, here are a couple crappy photos from the event. For those of you who dont remember, “The Arts” (plays sound) is the snazzy proposal involving the Melia Hotel, Boisedale restaurant/jazz club, a cafe, bike store, etc. Developers include Donahoe, Holland, & Shalom Baranes (architect). And they had a blog. This team was the one the community & ANC were most in favor of. If I’m not mistaken this developer is contracted for the property up to K Street which includes the Rogue & Fun Fair!!! Council approval of the deal will be required once its all worked out, expect shovel to hit dirt in about 18 months. So they say at least 3 yrs to completion. I dont know about you all but I’m bouncing with joy! Thanks to DNA, ANC 6C and everyone who kept this moving and made sure the neighbors were informed & had excellent input!
