[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele]I'm pretty sure that the ANC had nothing to do with the Apple Store. That delay was caused by the Old Georgetown Board which had issues with the design. But, to your larger issue, the influence of ANCs is pretty uneven. In some parts of the city, they are influential. But, in other parts, they are practically ignored. I imagine that our user Takoma can provide a number of examples in which ANCs proved fairly toothless. Also, it is very easy to run for the ANC. I think you only need 25 signatures on a petition. So, if you don't like the course your ANC is plotting, challenge the incumbent and try to replace him. [/quote] But I have to work, and raise a family. They veto the most asinine things. I read the Current and really just shake my head at how NIMBYs get to control and decide our fate. Jeff are you on your local ANC? [/quote]
