Subject: [HistoricWashington] HPO Monthly Public Notice - January 2019  

This document and others related to the January 24 and January 31, 2019 HPRB Meeting will post on our website at: https://planning.dc.gov/node/1377226 .

MONTHLY PUBLIC NOTICE

January 2019
Issued by email on January 9, 2019
PURPOSE OF THIS NOTICE

This notice is the official monthly announcement by the District of Columbia’s Historic Preservation Office (HPO) of pending matters of public interest.  It includes items related to preservation planning, designation of historic landmarks and historic districts, and project reviews before the Historic Preservation Review Board (HPRB) and U.S. Commission of Fine Arts (CFA).

NOTICE TO ADVISORY NEIGHBORHOOD COMMISSIONS

HPO and HPRB welcome and encourage Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC) participation in the historic preservation review process.  HPRB gives great weight to duly adopted written ANC views on matters of significance to neighborhood planning and development. 

How Affected ANCs Should Use this Notice

This is an initial notice to ANCs of construction projects recently filed for HPRB review.  Projects are identified by address and ANC area where the address is located.  Upcoming historic designation hearings are also listed, supplementing the separate notice letters mailed to ANCs.

HPRB regulations are designed to allow ANCs to identify projects they believe are significant to neighborhood planning and development.  ANCs can request project submissions and applicant contact information from the assigned HPO staff person listed on this notice.

The historic preservation regulations encourage, but do not require, applicants to contact the affected ANC to present their projects and to resolve any public concerns before HPRB review.  If an ANC is interested in a project listed on this notice, but has not yet been contacted by the applicant, the ANC is encouraged to arrange for an ANC review directly with the applicant.  

Longer Notice Period for Cases Undergoing ANC Review 

HPO gives notice according to rules designed to balance the interests of project applicants and ANCs.  If HPO is already aware of ANC interest in a project, the case is listed on two successive monthly notices in order to ensure a minimum notice to the affected ANC of 45 days (or 30 working days, whichever is longer).  This means that when these cases first appear on this notice, they are scheduled for the HPRB meeting at the end of the following month.

HPO asks affected ANCs for help in identifying any other projects on this notice that they want to review at a public meeting.  Upon notification, HPO will ensure that the affected ANC receives a minimum 45-day notice of those cases.  ANCs may identify an interest in reviewing any or all cases that affect their area.

For those cases that affected ANCs do not need to consider at a public meeting, HPO will proceed with review for possible consideration at this month’s HPRB meeting.  The shorter notice allows the application to proceed without unnecessary delay to the applicant or burden to the ANC. 

How to Ensure Consideration of ANC Views 

ANCs should first identify those cases on this notice they want to review.  ANCs should feel free to contact the assigned HPO staff person for information about any case.  ANCs should also contact HPO in writing to request an extended notice for those cases the ANC wants to review at a public meeting.  Requests are granted automatically and may be made by email to the assigned staff person or to historic.preservation@dc.gov .  Requests should be made as soon as possible, but no later than two days before the upcoming HPRB meeting.  ANCs do not need to contact HPO about projects that are already scheduled to allow a 45-day review period, or that they have already reviewed. 

How to Submit ANC Comments

For ANC comments to receive great weight, they must be adopted by ANC vote at a duly noticed public meeting.  ANC comments may be in resolution or letter format, and should be submitted within the 45-day review period.  Comments should relate to HPRB’s area of jurisdiction, state the vote taken, and articulate the basis for the ANC recommendations. 

Any ANC commissioner is welcome to participate in HPRB meetings as an individual, but only the duly adopted official comments of the ANC receive great weight.

GENERAL AVAILABILITY OF PUBLIC INFORMATION

The applications listed on this notice and their associated materials are a matter of public record.  Case files are open for public review at the Historic Preservation Office during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 9 am to 5 pm, 1100 4th Street SW, Suite E650 (at Waterfront METRO station).  

For more information, see the HPO and HPRB website at www.preservation.dc.gov . Some application materials are also posted on the website.

COMMENT SUBMISSION DEADLINES

Public comments are welcome on HPRB cases, and anyone may participate in an HPRB meeting without signing up in advance.  HPRB prefers to receive copies of written comments before their meeting.  Written comments submitted electronically by the deadlines below will be distributed to the HPRB members before the meeting.  Any comments received after the final deadline will held for the record but not distributed to the HPRB members.

Comments for distribution with case information: 1 pm on January 17

Final deadline for comments to be distributed:     1 pm on January 23 (for January 24 meeting)                                                                                                         1 pm on January 30 (for January 31 meeting)

The 45-day/30-working-day ANC notice period for cases on this notice expires on: February 23, 2019.

6th annual St. Baldrick's Day headshaving event at Boundary Stone

We are looking for shavees and donations for our annual St. Baldrick’s Day head shaving event at Boundary Stone. This is our 6th annual event at the pub and have thus far raised $329,053 for children’s cancer research! The day itself is one of our favorite days at the pub and is both a fun and emotional one where we come together as a community.  To get more of a feel for what the day and organization are about, check out this 7 minute film created by LeDroit park resident Quentin Kelly about our 2015 event: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgUhfS0n_gc&feature=youtu.be.  We have also created a Facebook event page here: https://www.facebook.com/events/291660741698601/?notif_t=event_calendar_create&notif_id=1547061126548928. 

This year’s event is scheduled for March 10th and we have set the lofty goal of $100,000!  To sign up to be a shavee or to donate, please click on this link: https://www.stbaldricks.org/events/BoundaryStone2019. 

Below are a few facts about children’s cancer and St. Baldrick’s.

• Worldwide, a child is diagnosed with cancer every two minutes.
• Childhood cancer is the #1 disease killer of kids in the U.S.
• Current childhood cancer research is significantly underfunded. Of the U.S. federal funding for cancer research, only 4% is solely dedicated to childhood cancers.
• St. Baldrick’s is the largest private funder of childhood cancer research grants.
• Since 2005, St. Baldrick's has committed more than $253 million to lifesaving research. Grants include training the next generation of researchers, supporting innovative research and helping institutions treat more children in clinical trials. 

Together we can do this! 

Thanks for your help!

MPD 3D Commander Emerman: Shooting investigation

From: MPD-3d@yahoogroups.com

Sent: Tuesday, January 8, 2019 2:49 PM
To: MPD-3d@yahoogroups.com
Subject: RE: [MPD-3d] Shooting investigation

Good afternoon Mr. Smith, and thank you for your post.  While we saw a few weeks of calm in the area, the homicide on Sunday night is very alarming to us as well.  Our detectives are reviewing cameras from the area, and interviewing witnesses to the shooting.  I am hopeful that we will be able to get enough evidence to identify the suspect or suspects responsible for this senseless act, and bring them to justice.

Since these incidents began, we increased our deployment of officers to the area with marked and unmarked units, along with plain clothes officers from other divisions within the MPD.  We have deployed our light tower to the area almost nightly, and have conducted patrols with DCHA PD.  We have also enlisted the help of our partner agencies, to include the ONSE (Officer of Neighborhood Safety and Engagement https://onse.dc.gov/). 

However, the abundance of illegal guns on our streets is still the primary issue, which we have made our priority.  Each of the most recent events all share the same thing:  The shooter(s) displayed a reckless disregard for human life by firing weapons on the street.  There are far too many illegal guns on our streets.  What we need to do collectively as a community is change the narrative that recklessly shooting a gun in public or carrying one is ok.  What we need is:

•             For individuals to be held in jail when we make arrests for gun offenses. 

•             For our court system to take gun offenses seriously. 
•             We need to know when the community sees guns on the street. 
•             We need for family members to turn in the guns that they find in their houses. 
•             We need to get these guns off the streets and have the system hold individuals responsible. 
•             We need mediation in the community to squash these petty disputes between individuals before they escalate to gunfire. 
•             We need government services and resources for individuals with mental health, substance abuse and employment challenges to work with these individuals so that they don’t feel the need to  carry a gun or resort to criminal activity.

My officers and I share the outrage and concern with the community.  Nobody should have to live in fear in any neighborhood.  We are continuing our efforts in the area and continue to encourage the community to call 911 when they see criminal/suspicious activity afoot. 

Thank you again and be safe.

(Washington, DC)  – Detectives from the Metropolitan Police Department’s Homicide Branch are investigating a homicide that occurred on Sunday, January 6, 2019, in the 200 block of V Street, Northwest.

At approximately 7:59 pm, members of the Third District responded to the listed location for the report of the sounds of gunshots. Upon arrival, officers discovered an adult male victim suffering from an apparent gunshot wound. DC Fire and Emergency Medical Services responded to the scene and transported the victim to an area hospital for treatment of life-threatening injuries.

On Monday, January 7, 2019, the victim succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead.

The decedent has been identified as 25-year-old Damon Dukes, of Northwest, DC.

The Metropolitan Police Department currently offers a reward of up to $25,000 to anyone that provides information which leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for any homicide committed in the District of Columbia.  Anyone with information about this case is asked to call the police at 202-727-9099. Additionally, anonymous information may be submitted to the department’s TEXT TIP LINE by sending a text message to 50411.

D.C. Council to finally take up'high priority' comp plan bill

Jan 7, 2019, 3:08pm EST

Katie Arcieri
Staff Reporter
Washington Business Journal
          
D.C. Council Chairman Phil Mendelson said Monday that a long-delayed bill to amend the critical introductory chapter of the District's comprehensive plan is back on his radar, saying it's a "high priority" that will provide clarity for development in the city over the next 20 years.     

The legislation was introduced by Mayor Muriel Bowser last year to amend the "framework element" chapter of the plan, but a vote was delayed until the new year as the council pursued other pressing legislation. If approved, the bill could potentially provide relief for dozens of developers hoping to move forward on higher density projects that would add thousands of residential units to all areas of the District.              

Many projects, including the $720 million McMillan Sand Filtration Plant redevelopment and several in the Union Market area, remain in limbo due to appeals by activist groups that claim the projects don't conform with land-use policies and could exacerbate gentrification.

2nd community open forum on decking over North Capitol Street -- Saturday, 01-12-2019

Subject: Join Us For The Decking Over Of North Capitol Street - 2nd Community Open Forum - Sat. Jan. 12th

Who: The Bloomingdale Civic Association’s (BCA) Bloomingdale Village Square (BVS) Committee would like to invite you to the second Community Open Forum concerning the Decking Over of North Capitol Project. With an introduction by BCA President Teri Janine Quinn, the Forum will again be moderated by Thaddeus Thaler (BCA's BVS Government And Community Outreach Director), with contributions from BVS's Co-Chairs Dr. Bertha Holliday and Zach Sherif, and BVS board member Paul Cerruti.

What: Building off of the successful first Forum on November 3, 2018, we will have updated information from ZGF Architects who, through a pro-bono services agreement with the Bloomingdale Civic Association, has graciously been dedicating time to help visualize the project to ultimately assist the community with its pitch to stakeholders. Bloomingdale resident and ZGF architect Chris Somma will again join us, and will bring along new material that he has put together since the last meeting:

1. An overall map of the entire corridor (satellite image), highlighting the particular area that we are looking into the for the Overdeck. Existing areas of interest will be highlighted and there will be an opportunity for attendees of the Forum to use stickers to tell us something about the neighborhood, e.g., areas needed for improvement (open space, safety, access, infrastructure etc). Attendees can also use the opportunity to express where we think there can be other opportunities.
2. Images of what DDOT standard furniture currently is – something the public can expect as the possible furniture solutions that the District would be willing to maintain.
3. Map of the full context of the area we are looking at (V St. through Seaton Pl.) – an opportunity for attendees to express what we are hoping to see in terms of programming in the space (e.g., pavilion for live music). The size of the Overdeck and possible opportunities for extension will be shown. 
4. Images of the existing site.
5. Precedent images (signifying program opportunities, aesthetics, context).  

The Forum will allow for more community input to guide the work of ZGF Architects moving forward with their work on visuals and deliverables on the exciting initiative to deck over North Capitol Street from V Street to Seaton Place with a pedestrian and bike friendly green way bridging once again the neighborhoods of Bloomingdale and Eckington.

When: Saturday, January 12, 2019 from 2:00 - 4:00 PM.

Where: St. Martin's Catholic Church in the Pioneer Room at 7 T Street NW, Washington, DC 20001. Entrance is on T Street NW, down some steps through the basement double doors.

For Whom: This event is open to all residents of Bloomingdale, Eckington, Edgewood, NOMA, Stronghold, and Truxton Circle.

Subject: [LeDroitPark] Shooting on 200 Block of W Street, NW

   

Good Evening,

MPD is currently investigating a shooting that occurred tonight around 8:15 pm on the 200 block of W Street, NW.  An adult victim was shot and is in critical condition.

As this is one of several incidents over the past month or so, I want to be sure community members are aware that we are bringing targeted resources to the area, including additional police presence as well violence interrupters trained to intervene when there are recurring incidents in a particular area. 

If you live on the 200 block of W St NW and have a private security camera that faces the street, please contact MPD at 202-727-9099. The Commander and I both encourage residents to participate in DC’s Private Security Camera Incentive Program: follow this link to find out more​. 

This incident occurred in Police Service Area 306​. Police Service Areas (PSAs) are how MPD divides up its Police Districts (Ward 1 is part of Districts 3 and 4). PSAs regularly meet to engage with the community on issues of public safety. You can stay updated on developments in the 3rd Police District and learn about upcoming PSA meetings by subscribing to the official MPD listserv for the area.​

Sincerely,

Brianne K. Nadeau

Councilmember, Ward 1​
