The card reiterates their family's deep appreciation and gratitude to FEMS' for such thoughtfulness toward families and persons struggling during this challenging economic climate.   I can, myself, attest to the economic impact.
 
With that, and on behalf of our community, please accept my sincere, humble thank you for FEMS'/Engine 17's unselfish generosity and humanity during this holiday season.

Subject: Thanksgiving

Greetings Commissioner Steptoe,

 

IAFF Local 36 (the Firefighters union) will provide two Thanksgiving baskets to each firehouse that requests them. Each basket contains a turkey and various canned goods to provide a meal. This is a goodwill gesture aimed to provide a meal to 2 families that may be struggling financially or otherwise. Engine 17 would deliver these baskets around noontime on Nov. 24th (this would be Lt. Carter's shift). I expressed to Capt. Bowers that I may be able to locate two families that could benefit from this generous  offer. Before reaching out elsewhere, I thought that maybe you or some of the other Commissioners may already know of  someone who would like to receive this Thanksgiving gift. If so, please let me know and we will facilitate the delivery.

 

Hope all is well with you. And please remind the citizens, the men and women of Engine 17 are here to serve. Thanks. Charlie. 571.239.4304

[WardFive] DPW To Hold Monthly HHW/E-Cycling/Shredding Drop-Off On Sat., Dec. 7

DPW To Hold Monthly HHW/E-Cycling/Shredding Drop-Off On Sat., Dec. 7

 

The DC Department of Public Works will hold its next monthly Household Hazardous Waste/E-cycling/Personal Document Shredding drop-off Saturday, December 7, 8 am to 3 pm, at the Ft. Totten Transfer Station*.  The monthly drop-off is held every first Saturday, except holidays, at Ft. Totten, between 8 am and 3 pm. 

 

During the monthly HHW/E-cycling/Personal Document Shredding event, District residents may bring toxic items such as pesticides, batteries and cleaning fluids to Ft. Totten, along with computers, televisions and other unwanted electronic equipment.  Personal document shredding also is available that day and residents may bring up to five boxes of materials to be shredded.  No business or commercial material will be accepted. 

 

To accommodate residents whose religious beliefs prohibit them from using the Saturday drop-off, DPW will accept household hazardous waste and e-cyclables on Thursday, December 5 from 1 pm to 5 pm.  While DPW normally offers personal document shredding during the Saturday event, items to be shredded cannot be accepted on Thursday, December 5 because these documents cannot be protected until the shredding contractor arrives on Saturday.  (DPW usually provides this alternate drop-off day the Thursday before the first Saturday of the month.)  For a list of all household hazardous waste and e-cyclables accepted by DPW, please click on the HHW link at www.dpw.dc.gov.

 

For a list of all household hazardous waste and e-cyclables accepted by DPW, please click on the HHW link at www.dpw.dc.gov.

 

DPW reminds residents that certain batteries (lithium-based and batteries greater than 9 volts) should be taped before being brought to Ft. Totten.  Lithium-based batteries are most commonly found in cell phones, digital cameras and laptops.  Also, hearing aids, watches and keyless remotes typically use button cells, containing lithium.  To safely dispose of batteries with lithium or batteries of greater than 9 volts, put clear, masking or electrical tape on the batteries’ terminals.  Flat button batteries can be sandwiched between two layers of tape.  Examples are pictured on the next page.  Place these batteries in a separate container from other batteries that don’t require being taped, e.g., A, AAA, C, D, 6-volt and 9-volt batteries.

 

*Directions to Ft. Totten, 4900 John F. McCormack Drive, NE:  Travel east on Irving Street, NW, turn left on Michigan Avenue, turn left on John F. McCormack Drive, NE and continue to the end of the street.  Directions from additional locations can be found at http://dpw.dc.gov/node/414922.

[WardFive] Mayor Gray Announces Distribution Schedule for New Supercans, Trash Cans and Larger Recycling Cans

Mayor Gray Announces Distribution Schedule for New Supercans, Trash Cans and Larger Recycling Cans

 

Mayor Vincent C. Gray joined other District leaders today to announce that the Department Public Works (DPW) will begin distributing new Supercans in January 2014 to residents who receive once-a-week trash collection services from DPW. Mayor Gray made the announcement at a press conference attended by Ward 3 Councilmember Mary M. Cheh, Chairperson of the Committee on Transportation and the Environment, and Kenyan McDuffie, Chairperson of the Committee on Government Operations. DPW Director William O. Howland, Jr. and District Department of the Environment Director Keith Anderson also participated in the press conference.

 

I know there are a lot of people inquiring about when they will get their new Supercans. I also know many people have communicated through Grade.DC.gov that they have outgrown the 32-gallon recycling can and need more capacity,” said Mayor Gray. “I am happy to announce the wait is almost over. Starting in January, the Department of Public Works will begin delivering new Supercans and 64-gallon recycling cans to the 75,000 households that receive once-a-week trash and recycling collection services from DPW.”

 

Mayor Gray noted that by increasing capacity for residents to recycle, the District takes a significant step toward achieving the Sustainable DC Plan’s target of diverting 80 percent of the waste stream through recycling, composting, and waste conversion.

 

DPW Director William O. Howland, Jr. said, “Residents of twice-a-week trash collection neighborhoods will get new 32-gallon trash cans and they will receive 48-gallon recycling cans, which are 50 percent larger than the current 32-gallon recycling cans. DPW will begin delivering these new cans in the spring. We expect that all 105,000 households will have their new trash and recycling cans by July.”

 

More than 10 years have passed since the District’s supply of Supercans was refreshed. Proper containerization of trash is a major defense against rats and other animals.

The DC Snow Team (Department of Public Works and Department of Transportation) is asking residents to reach out to their neighbors to organize snow shoveling teams to clear sidewalks after it snows.  The District requires property owners (residential and commercial) to clear the sidewalks surrounding their property within 24 hours after a snowfall. 

 

“While our last two winters produced less than four inches of snow between them, we do remember the winter of 2009-2010,” said DPW Director William O. Howland, Jr.  “Anyone who endured two back-to-back blizzards in February 2010 knows that having help shoveling snow makes the job a lot easier than doing it alone.” 

 

Director Howland noted that Serve DC – The Mayor’s Office on Volunteerism, , along with the Office on Aging and the Department of Disability Services, is organizing teams to help elderly and disabled residents with clearing their sidewalks of snow and ice.

 

Serve DC Executive Director Jeffrey D. Richardson, MSW, said, “We are excited to mobilize residents to leverage the power of service and volunteerism to meet this community need. Volunteers across the District will check on their assigned neighbors, provide assistance and report back to us. We’ll also be prepared to respond to spontaneous requests for those with critical needs.”

 

“Even a dusting of snow can be too much for elderly or disabled residents to shovel,” said DDOT Director Terry Bellamy.  “That’s why we are asking you to volunteer your services and make winter a little easier on everyone.”

 

Throughout the winter, Director Howland asks everyone to keep up with the weather forecast.  “Sometimes, all that is needed to keep a sidewalk clear is pre-treating it with a deicer, rock salt or non-clumping kitty litter before snow begins to fall,” he said.

[WardFive] 5B04 Development: Oxbridge Development on 9th Street between Kearny and Lawrence (ZC Map

Good morning Community -
 
Attached is the recently received Zoning Commission Notice of Filing application of a map amendment by Oxbridge Development for its property on 9th street parcel (between Kearny and Lawrence).  The map amendment application seeks rezoning of the property from C-M-1 to R-4 district of Lots 42-45 and 830 in Square 3831.
 
The enclosed Notice of Filing (page 2 of this scan) provides ZC description of what is permitted in a C-M-1 zone district v. a R-4 zone district.
 
While this project is located in 5B04/ANC 5B, ZC also recognizes ANC 5E as involved/impacted.
 
Very kind regards,
