Working with MPD and DOB to address ongoing drug activity at 3123 South Dakota Ave NE. DOB is inspecting the site today. The property’s for sale, but that doesn’t excuse neglect. It must be secured.

Proud to serve 5B with Edward, Nandini, Jingwen, Ra, Mónica, and Maya: thoughtful, dedicated Commissioners who care deeply about our community. Grateful to Councilmember Zachary Parker @cmzparker5.bsky.social for hosting Ward 5 Day and for being a strong advocate for us all.

For the past week and a half a law enforcement helicopter has hovered over our community daily for hours. It isn’t emitting an ADS-B signal, so its origin can’t be tracked. I’ve written to MPD Chief Smith: Who is flying it?, Why is it here, Why no signal? What’s the cost? We deserve transparency.

A resident at our ANC 5B meeting said we don’t represent “us” and mocked the accents of fellow commissioners. That’s unacceptable. We were elected to serve everyone. I’ll be reaching out directly to share my concerns and seek common ground rooted in respect.

Cars stored on the 3000-blk Rhode Island Ave NE clog lanes & walks. I got DPW, DDOT, DOB, DLCP on it. DPW will tow weekly, DDOT will fix signs, DLCP will audit licenses. Keep sending 311 pics & email me (5B07@anc.dc.gov). Updates soon! #Ward5 #ANC5B07

Big changes could be coming to how DC handles alley lots including right here in #5B. The Office of Planning is proposing zoning amendments to allow more residential use + clearer rules. If you’ve ever said “they never ask for input”…well, they’re asking.
