ANC Meeting Next Monday Night

The ANC will meet for its November session next Monday night at Visitation. The draft agenda is above.

One thing you may notice about the agenda is that there are no Old Georgetown Board matters listed. While there are two months a year when the OGB doesn’t routinely meet, November is not one of them. But with the ongoing federal government shutdown, the OGB has not met since September. And it will continue to remain inactive until the government is funded and opened.

This will likely result in some serious backlogs of cases for the board to work though. These include your normal cases, but they also include all the streatery applications that are being processed by the city right now. Given that even normal OGB meetings can stretch over the entire day, I imagine they will need one or more special sessions to catch up once the shutdown ends.

From the ANC’s perspective though, this hopefully means a shorter meeting this month. Last month we went nearly to 1 AM. So a shorter meeting would be a welcome change.
