2023 ANC 2B Committee Recruiting

At the first meeting of each year, ANC 2B voted to establish the Committees that will support our work for the community. For 2023, ANC 2B approved two Committees – the Mobility and Land Use Committees. The role of ANC Committees, as noted in our Policies and Procedures Manual, is to better manage the Commission’s work (including agency proceedings on which ANC input may be requested or informative), to involve more community stakeholders in the Commission’s work, to facilitate education of the Commission and community on issues affecting the neighborhood, and to make full Commission meetings more efficient.

The committees meet monthly, on an as-needed basis, in virtual or hybrid form, for 60-90 minutes, depending on the agenda.

Members commit to regular attendance and participation in and support of the Committee work, which can include note taking and drafting of resolutions and minutes, as well as other tasks, e.g. research or site visits, as appropriate and necessary to facilitate the Committee’s work.

The membership, date, and time of Committee meetings is to be determined at the Commission’s February 8th meeting; members will be appointed to serve through February 2024.

If you are interested in participating in a Committee this year, please send a short email with the subject line Re: Committee Membership to: 2B@anc.dc.gov.

In your email please indicate where you live and/or your Single Member District (SMD); which Committee you would like to serve on; why you are interested and what expertise you would bring; whether you have previously served on an ANC Committee and/or any other community involvement; and whether you may have any professional or volunteer relationships that might be relevant to your service (such as employment, organizational affiliations, past involvement in transportation or real estate development matters of concern to the neighborhood, etc.)

To learn more about the purpose and function of our Committees, see pages 24-25 in our Policies and Procedures Manual here.

November 15th Mobility Committee Meeting Agenda (Virtual Meeting)

ANC 2B’s November 2022 Mobility Committee (MC) meeting will be held on Tuesday, November 15th at 7:00 pm.

This meeting will be held online via Zoom and can be accessed at the following link: .

If you do not have a computer or access to the internet, you may join the meeting via phone at (301) 715-8592 or (646) 558-8656 with meeting ID 860 8288 7146 #.

We will continue to have public comment on each agenda item. There is no fee or account needed to use Zoom.

The agenda for the meeting is as follows:

  • Discussion of Outstanding ANC 2B Street Safety Issues: Input from commissioners and the public is sought about outstanding pedestrian/cyclist/traffic safety issues for the District Department of Transportation (DDOT), including missing/inadequate signs, signals needing adjustment, speeding, thru trucks and buses, and disregarding posted weight limits. (30 minutes)
  • Discussion of Restoration of Dupont Circle/Elimination of Inner (Massachusetts Avenue NW) Lanes: Most of the circle’s safety issues stem from conflicts imposed by the junctions of the inner and outer traffic lanes. DDOT had plans around 2005 to restore Dupont by removing the inner lanes as it had Logan and Thomas Circles. Work was supposed to have started after the P Street Streetscape project in 2007-2008. The project did not proceed, no explanation was provided, and no further mention was made. DDOT now says they have no record or trace of the studies or plans. We are seeking public input to initiate a new request to DDOT that they conduct a new study and present a restoration plan for further discussion. (30 minutes)
Please note, with regards to the committee’s December 2022 meeting, if there are items to consider, the December Mobility Committee meeting will be held a week earlier on Tuesday, December 13th to avoid conflicting with Hanukkah or travel plans for the holidays. Otherwise, there will be no meeting for December.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the above agenda items, please reach out to MC Chair Jeffrey Rueckgauer at: 2B02@anc.dc.gov.
