The Alcoholic Beverage Control Board (Board) will conduct a hearing to receive public comment on two proposals regarding the renewal of the East Dupont Circle Moratorium Zone. One proposal, submitted by Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC) 2B proposes to renew the existing East Dupont Circle Moratorium Zone for another three year period with certain modifications. A second proposal submitted by the Dupont Circle Citizens Association seeks additional time to collect relevant data regarding the existing Moratorium Zone to include the status of inactive licenses. The Board believes both of these proposals merit further evaluation, and thus adopted emergency rules to extend the existing Moratorium for another 120 days to receive public comment.
