Hello neighbors,
As you might have seen from ANC 2Bās regular October meeting agenda that was sent out last week, the ANC will begin considering a series of alcohol license renewals during this Wednesday’s meeting. The Alcoholic Beverage Regulation Administration (ABRA) required all grocery stores and markets that have licenses to sell only beer and wine to apply for renewal by October 2nd, 2017. Due to the fact that ANC 2B contains several grocery store and market licenses, ANC will set aside time during several upcoming regular meetings in order to consider the renewal of licenses.
The alcohol license renewal process is a critical time for the ANC to ensure that establishments are following the rules and being good neighbors. The process allows for the ANC to work with individual establishments to address any concerns from their neighbors. Community members are thus encouraged to attend the ANCās meetings where renewals are being considered and to voice concerns about any individual establishments that are up for renewal.
I have created a list of the establishments whose license renewals will be considered during the ANCās regular October meeting this Wednesday. The list can be found below:
ANC 2B License Renewals for October 2017 Meeting
Please note that the list was created based on the renewal notices that the ANC has received on a rolling basis thus far. There will be time set aside for community members to raise any concerns regarding the establishments included in the above list duringĀ this Wednesday’s meeting.
As a reminder, the ANCās regular October meeting will be this Wednesday, October 11th at 7:00 pm at the Brookings Institution, 1775 Massachusetts Avenue NW. A copy of the meeting agenda can be foundĀ here.
Additionally, more information on the 2017 alcohol license renewal process can be foundĀ here.
Please letĀ your single member district commissionerĀ or I know if you have any questions about this matter. We look forward to seeing youĀ on Wednesday!
Sincerely,
Peter Sacco
Executive Director
Advisory Neighborhood Commission 2B
