The first proposal was from Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC) 2B, which recommended renewing the existing moratorium for another three-year period with significant modifications. A second proposal from the Dupont Circle Citizens Association suggested conducting further research on the issue.

  • Two licenses to retailers to sell wine and beer;

All hotels are exempt from the terms of the moratorium zone. More details may be reviewed in DC Municipal Regulations Title 23 Section 307.”
