For real. It is characterized as an essential service though.

I get my Miele vacuum serviced. It's been going for 20 years! But the vacuum repair shop I used to go to closed. Maybe I'll go see this guy. He seems nice.

There's a vacuum and sewing machine repair shop on Rockville Pike too. Probably the best way to get there is Metro to Rockville, then 46 south to the store. On the way home, 46 south to Twinbrook Metro. That way, you don't have to cross Rockville Pike.

At this point, all five of them have publicly apologized. Of course, many don't view that as enough and will never do so. Indeed, nothing, not even voluntarily being driven over by a late model BMW on Connecticut Ave will be enough. Their profanity was the crime of the century and they shall be deprived of grace and forgiveness for their insolence.

Just because you have apologized should not insulate you from criticism of your behavior.

At what point can people move on, though? Drunkenly flicking off a silly* sign on the biggest night of their lives isn't exactly the Trumpish malfeasance some want it to be. They did something bad. They got caught. They apologized. The argument that they only apologized because they were caught is absurdly circular. People only apologize when they are called out on their actions.

Should they take some heat? Absolutely. Should everything they do from hereon (in an elected unpaid role) be tainted? Nope.


* the bike lanes are coming, regardless of this ANC or any other Ward 3 ANC. Spending money to defeat city hall on a minor something city hall wants to do is futile.

Here’s the thing that you don’t really understand which I think underlies a lot of the problems being presented here. You don’t get to decide when “people move on”, the residents of CP and the constituents of these commissioners get to decide that for themselves. By trying to deny their constituents a forum to present their dissatisfaction with immature and offensive behavior, it demonstrates also a lack of respect for the people of their community. Commissioners should represent their communities. However in this case it seems that they hold contempt for their neighbors in very significant ways. To be honest with you, this whole episode is pretty sad and continues to reflect on the profound immaturity of these commissioners such that their fitness to serve is in question. If they cannot even face up to their neighbors in an open forum and take their medicine, then they should not be an elected representative of anyone because that accountability is part of the job.

They are. The overhwelming majority WANT the bike lanes. Get it? YOU are the MINORITY and you want to clog up everyone else's mail box with BS because YOU can't let it go.

The issue is not about bike lanes anymore. It’s about immature and offensive behavior followed by attempts to prevent their neighbors from providing them direct feedback about it. It’s pretty sad when elected officials are so petty as to abuse power to prevent public accountability. Particularly when all they need to do is listen to their neighbors and provide an unconditional. But it seems like acting like adults is too hard for these people so they want to hide behind Roberts Rules of Order. How pathetic.

The "Save Conn Ave" people LIE. BALDLY LIE. Like their entire site is full of horse$$it. They spin up crap all the time just to keep this seeming to be a contentious issue. But its just spin. They spam email the DDOT people on the project with crap just to forestall it. People who deal in facts are frustrated that these jerks are allowed to spread their drivel relentlessly by the biased curators for CP and CC Listservs. So yeah, flick off their signs. Good.

You people are extreme radicals. You have lost my support.

The bike lanes are happening with or without your support. Die mad about it I guess!

We never had your support.

And it's "extremely radical" not "extreme radicals."

Wow so no one but you can email DDOT? Man you are crazy!

[Anonymous]

Who cares about bike lanes. The vast majority of people have no clue about your bike lane agenda. You and your supporters attack anyone who may have questions, oppose your vision or just realize you are an a$$hole. You stand against democracy. Your bullying, shouting people down and trumpist ways will not last.

The democracy here already happened. There have been over two years of community engagement to get to where we are now. Yet people like you want to subvert the will of the people to force your minority opinion. THAT is aggressive Trumpism at its finest. Look in the mirror.

How many units of housing and viable business that wanted to come to Cleveland Park has the former Commissioner cost DC taxpayers and Cleveland Park residents over the past 20 years?

The current ANC is firmly against that. They went to the homeless shelter and gave them the finger. They are so cool!

The new ANC won't be against that, except for Rick Nash ofc.

F' the ops! (Opposition, not old people, for you fragile minds out there from CP listserv). Development of a few tired old retail strips coming to a Cleveland park near you!
