Parking regulations, including expired meters, residential parking, street sweeping and rush hour lane restrictions will be suspended today. The exception is the neighborhood around the Nationals Stadium, where parking regulations will be enforced.
Additionally, street sweeping will be suspended Monday, Sept. 2 so motorists will not need to move their cars that day.
Pools
As summer winds down, so does the pool season. Francis Pool (2500 N St., NW), (3265 S St., NW), and (1555 34th St., NW) will operate under normal weekday and weekend hours through Labor Day weekend. All but Francis are closed Monday, Sept. 2.
Though the Advisory Neighborhood Commission generally meets the Monday before the first Thursday of the month, the ANC will meet Tuesday, Sept. 3 because of the holiday. Meetings are at 6:30 p.m. at Georgetown Visitation.
