Recent meeting notices

DC Office of ANCs

DC's ANC office posts a notice for each public meeting, often with the recording. We started collecting them for Dupont Circle's ANCs (ANC 2B) on Oct 31, 2026; they'll collect here.

What an ANC does

An Advisory Neighborhood Commission is the most local level of DC government. The city is split into ANCs, and each ANC into small Single Member Districts. Every district elects one commissioner. Commissioners are unpaid neighbors.

ANCs don't make final decisions. They vote on positions and send them to DC agencies, which by law must give those positions "great weight": the agency has to respond to the ANC's concerns in writing when it decides.

Where ANCs weigh in
  • ZoningVariances, special exceptions and new development before the zoning boards
  • Liquor licensesNew bars, restaurants and stores, and changes to their hours
  • Public spaceSidewalk cafes, driveways, curb cuts and anything built in the public right of way
  • PermitsBuilding, historic preservation and other city permits that affect the neighborhood
