Wednesday
ANC6B Planning and Zoning Committee meets at 7:00pm at St. Coletta of Greater Washington, 1901 Independence Avenue, SE.
Bob Gilbert and Ulana Bilynsky will present the case in support of a certificate of need to establish Medstar Health, a primary care physician’s practice and urgent care practice on the ground floor of the Home Care And Hospice Association building at 228 7th Street, SE.
Also on the agenda:
Gina Arlotto will make the case for the Tour de Fat Parade on June 1, 2013. The Tour de Fat Parade is a costumed bicycle parade sponsored by New Belgium Brewing which made its Washington debut in 2012.. The event raises money for local nonprofits (generally in the world of bike advocacy – including trail maintenance, safety education, lobbying for better bicycle communities and other impact initiatives) through beer and merchandise purchases. Last year, a series of events raised more than $500,000. The parade is scheduled to begin at 10:00am from Yards Park and proceed to RFK Stadium via M Street, SE, and the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail and return to Yards Park by the same route.
David Blackstock and Diane Odell will present a request for a zoning variance to allow to allow construction of new three unit residential building on the empty lot at 1311 Pennsylvania Avenue, SE.

ANC 6B ABC Committee Meets at 7:00pm in Hill Center. The agenda is uncertain.
Doesn’t Medstar Health have a practice on Penn near 6th? Is this merely a relocation or a new facility with more doctors?
