Dear Ward 5 Resident,

 

Please find attached our Summer Recess Edition Newsletter.

 

We were hit with two severe storms, witnessed repeated heavy flooding in Bloomingdale after a number of rainstorms, and a fire broke out at Webb Elementary School.  Our office remains fully engaged with residents who continue to experience difficulties as a result of these incidents. 

 

We have attended numerous civic associations meetings to discuss the city's response efforts, and we continue to collaborate with District agencies to create a better action plan. The goal is to ensure that residents and agencies are better equipped in the event that we are hit again with similar weather.

 

At the Wilson Building, our legislative team has been hard at work. Leading up to the Council's recess, we hosted an organizational meeting for the Committee on Jobs and Workforce Development, adopting the Rules of Organization and Procedure that govern the committee.  I also participated in a number of legislative meetings where we introduced and supported bills (see page 4) that will have a positive impact on the quality of life for the residents of the District of Columbia.

 

Lastly, we appreciate all of the feedback our office has received. At times, we understand that life can be difficult, but as Ward 5 residents, we can all embrace the motto, "We keep moving forward."

 

Sincerely,

Kenyan

 

 

Kenyan R. McDuffie
