Shaw to Ward 6!

Come on Council, Make it Happen! It's the right thing to do. I'm usually a critic, but I applaud Councilmember Jack Evans' leadership and willingness to sacrifice and make the hard thoughtful choices in this case.

ANCs are NOT supposed to represent neighborhoods, they are supposed to represent the 2,000+ odd people in their district (when they are engaged with their district neighbors and functioning properly and don't go off the reservation working for their own blind political ambitions). Neighborhoods are separate from ANC Districts and better represented by civic and neighborhood associations.

Like Police Districts and Parking Zones it's best that these areas don't have the same boundaries so that egomaniac electeds don't have total control over your quality of life.
