Dear PoPville – Getting Public Garbage Cans with ANC Help

“Dear PoPville,

In continuation of the dialogue around litter control, in attempts to curb ongoing littering in our neighborhood (Fort Totten Metro), my boyfriend and I have tried to contact our ANC commissioner re: installation of more garbage cans. We have been thus far, unsuccessful in reaching her. I was curious if PoPville had any insight as to:

a) how one to reach their ANC commissioner
b) enacting change without the assistance of an ANC Commissioner
c) could a private citizen, in theory set up trash cans on their property for community use?

Thank you!”
