Agenda Items

ECA business — 7:00-8:00 pm

    • Announcing new grant application period – applications due June 6
  • ANC Redistricting – Conor Shaw, ECA President
    • ANCs stand for Advisory Neighborhood Commissions. Individual commissioners are elected from within single member districts (the different color boundaries you see below), and these commissioners have considerable power to help shape zoning, permitting, and other items that shape our community. DC is currently going through its redistricting process, which happens every ten years, and is based on the population counts of the most recent census. Each single member district is supposed to have approximately 2,000 residents, and the target range is roughly 1900-2100. The Ward 5 redistricting task force has proposed creating a new ANC that would be composed of Eckington and Edgewood (labeled 5F in the Arcgis map)
