What is an ANC?

The District of Columbia is divided into 8 Wards, which are in turn divided into Advisory Neighborhood Commissions.  There are 46 ANCs in the District, and these are further divided into single-member districts.  Commissioners are elected from each single-member district on a non-partisan basis, and serve for 2-year uncompensated terms.  The Commissioners in each ANC meet regularly to discuss and vote on matters affecting their constituents.  District government agencies are not required to follow the recommendations made by ANCs, but they are generally required to give ANC recommendations "great weight".  ANC 1C is the Advisory Neighborhood Commission for Adams Morgan, and consists of nine Commissioners who live in the community.  If you have a matter that you would like ANC 1C to address, please contact your Commissioner or the Chair of the relevant Committee.  We encourage everyone to participate so that we can do the best possible job representing Adams Morgan.
