ANC 1E committees are where neighbors and commissioners work together to dive deeper into key issues affecting our community. Each committee meets separately to review proposals, hear public input, and make recommendations to the full Commission.
All meetings are held virtually unless otherwise stated. They are open to the public and encourage community participation. (NOTE: The Committee of the Whole is an administrative meeting, and no Commission votes will be taken. However, residents are still welcome to join.)

Our committees are where much of the real work happens. Members dig into the issues that shape our neighborhood and help shape the recommendations that guide the full Commission. We have three committees looking for new members: Transportation and Public Space, Zoning and Economic Development, and Public Safety and Engagement. You don’t need any special background or experience to join. All you need is an interest in your community and a little time to give.
It's a great way to meet your neighbors and have a direct say in the decisions that affect our neighborhood. To learn more or sign up, contact Commissioner Josh Jacobson or attend an upcoming committee meeting. ANC 1E’s website includes an up-to-date calendar of committee meetings.

Heading to the pool or splash pad? Constituents have shared that DPR’s official pool status information does not always reflect same-day changes quickly enough, which can leave families arriving at a closed gate.
The DC Children’s Pool Tracker helps fill that gap with crowdsourced, real-time updates from people at District pools and splash pads, including whether the children’s section is open.
If you see a status change, you can update the tracker and help the next family know what to expect. Visit https://pools.districtjosh.com for a faster read on what is open right now.
