Ward 4 Councilmember Janeese Lewis George is soliciting input on DC’s budget. She will hold a budget forum on February 12, 2022, at 3:30 pm. RSVP at the link.

As I mentioned in this post regarding Ward 5 Councilmember Kenyan McDuffie’s budget survey, it is really important that residents take advantage of the opportunity to chime in on what they would like to see in the budget. I always plug items in our neighborhood’s area development plan because that is a consensus document and why take the time to make a plan and not implement it. And because the commercial corridor along Riggs Road and South Dakota Avenue NE straddles Wards 4 and 5, I usually send my budget requests concerning this corridor to both Councilmembers. But people can ask for anything and you should!
