Two new faces are Georgetown University students.
On Wednesday, Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC) members from across the District were sworn in at the Washington Convention Center. Though much of the makeup of the Georgetown ANC is unchanged, two new faces will be seated behind the table at the monthly community meetings: Peter Prindiville and Craig Cassey, Jr. Cassey and Prindiville, both Georgetown University students, were elected in November to serve student-dominated sections of the community. Prindiville received more votes than any other Georgetown student ANC candidate in a decade. ANC commissioners serve two-year terms.

Comcast's 'small-refrigerator-sized' utility boxes are a point of contention among Georgetown residents.
Comcast, the District Department of Transportation and Georgetown neighborhood leaders are in discussions about the "small-refrigerator-sized" green utility boxes that have recently appeared on street corners in the historic district. At last week's Advisory Neighborhood Commission, Commissioner Tom Birch said the fact that the boxes appeared on street corners without any architectural or design review made him "livid." "This business is coming into our community and just making an aestheitic wreck of what we try to preserve in the historic district," said Birch last week. Initially, the ANC reported having problems getting Comcast to return their calls and emails about the boxes. According to online news site The Wrap.com, Comcast is now …

Comcast utility boxes recently sprang up on Georgetown street corners.
Comcast's new green utility boxes "are sprouting like weeds" on Georgetown sidewalks and the Advisory Neighborhood Commission is none too happy. "This business is coming into our community and just making an aestheitic wreck of what we try to preserve in the historic district," said Commissioner Tom Birch who lives near several of Comcast's "small refrigerator-sized green boxes." Birch said the process has made him "livid" because not only were the boxes not reviewed by the ANC for design, but the construction hours have been "flat out illegal" at times by his estimation. Birch said he has heard work at 5:30 a.m. and even at 10:30 p.m. on a weekend night. One neighbor said the "icebox-"sized installments appeared without notice, even …

Changes at intersection meant to address community concerns about pedestrian safety.
Responding to concerns raised by an active group of 37th Street residents and the Advisory Neighborhood Commission, the District Department of Transportation (DDOT) said it plans to put new stop signs, crosswalks and other street reconfigurations along stretches of 37th Street and Tunlaw Road.

The best way of citizens to tell Comcast that this was an offense to their historic district is to take action and dismantle/remove the boxes themselves. Then just repair the sidewalks and call Comcast to come and get their equipment. Risking jail time is necessary in cases like these. more ›
