What is an ANC?

 

For those unfamiliar with what ANC’s do, visit www.anc2f.org or read this synopsis taken from the Web site:

“ANCs consider a wide range of policies and programs affecting their neighborhoods, including applications for liquor licenses. ANCs also consider traffic, parking, housing, recreation, street improvements, zoning, economic development, police protection, sanitation and trash collection, and the District's annual budget. In fact, no public policy area is excluded from their purview.

In each of these areas, the intent of the ANC legislation is to ensure input from an advisory body that is made up of the residents of the neighborhoods that are directly affected by government action. The ANCs are the body of government with the closest official ties to the people in a neighborhood.”
