Thanks to Steve for putting this comprehensive list together. Based on the great discussion we had earlier he thought it may be a good idea to contact the Mayor and/or your Council Member.

Council Member Muriel Bowser was kind enough to speak with me about some of the issues she has been working on since taking office. I have to say when I left the meeting I was feeling extremely optimistic and I was reassured that Petworth has a genuine advocate looking out for us. One of the most exciting things I learned was that Bowser is working with the people from Safeway in order to make sure they renovate their property on Georgia Ave. Additionally, I was encouraged to learn that Bowser has been in close contact with the Metropolitan Police Department’s Fourth District Commander to ensure that the recent spate of muggings near the metro are properly addressed. And finally I was glad to learn that the proposed homeless shelter move to Georgia Ave. is far from a done deal and a zoning meeting is set to address this very issue. Below you can find a summary of the entire discussion. (more…)
This is also from the U St. neighborhood. Damn in Petworth we only get trash pick up on Friday. What’s up with that?
