From the Alcoholic Beverage Regulation Administration:
“WHO/WHAT: The Alcoholic Beverage Control Board (Board) will hold a hearing on Wednesday, May 7 to receive public input on two proposals regarding the Adams Morgan Moratorium Zone, which restricts alcoholic beverage licensing in the neighborhood. Proposals include:
Advisory Neighborhood Commission 1C’s petition to renew the existing Adams Morgan Moratorium Zone for a five-year period with certain modifications [ed. note: would allow for new restaurant licenses]; and
Kalorama Citizens Association’s petition to renew the existing Adams Morgan Moratorium Zone for a five-year period with no changes to current restrictions.
WHEN: 10 a.m. to noon, Wednesday, May 7
WHERE: Alcoholic Beverage Regulation Administration Hearing Room
2000 14th St., NW, Suite 400 South, 4th Floor
BACKGROUND: The Adams Morgan Moratorium Zone extends approximately 1,400 feet in all directions from the intersection of 18th St. and Belmont Road, NW. The following alcoholic beverage license restrictions apply in the zone:
No new licenses for restaurants, nightclubs, taverns and multipurpose facilities.
No more than 10 licenses for taverns and multipurpose facilities.
A licensed restaurant is prohibited from changing its license class unless there are fewer than 10 tavern and multipurpose facility licenses issued in the zone.
A license holder outside the zone is not permitted to transfer its license to a location within the zone unless it is an off-premise retailer or hotel.
The Board extended the existing moratorium to July 12 to allow time to evaluate both proposals.”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
