CAPITOL HILL CORNER

Kelly Waud Sworn In Today as Commissioner for ANC6B07

by Larry Janezich

Kelly Waud was sworn in by Councilmember Charles Allen as Commissioner to fill the ANC6B07 seat for the unexpired term of Commissioner Aimee Grace who resigned earlier this year.  The term will run until January, meaning the seat – along with all other ANC seats – will be up for election this November.  Waub was the only candidate to emerge during the special election following Grace’s resignation.

Capitol Hill Corner asked Waud what her goals are for the balance of her term.  Waud said, “I’d like to build on the progress Aimee Grace made in redeveloping the pocket parks on Potomac Avenue.  We have completed designs that reflect the goals of the neighborhood and will need to identify additional funding to complete the approved design.”

Waud has been an active resident member of ANC6B’s Transportation Committee concerned with the proposed continuing development of the Southwest Boulevard.  6B07 is a diverse single member district, including the commercial strip on the south side of Pennsylvania Avenue, Harris Teeter, the Potomac Avenue pocket parks, Potomac Gardens, and Hopkins Apartments.  The district borders the major CAS Riegler mixed use retail/150 – 180 apartments at 1401 Pennsylvania Avenue, currently under construction, and is seeing other new residential construction as evidenced by plans for a multi- residential building in the in 1300 Block of K Street, SE.

Here’s the FY 2019 Budget for Eastern Market Proposed by the Department of General Services

by Larry Janezich

Eastern Market Community Advisory Committee (EMCAC) is objecting to the flouting the law by Department of General Services in failing to submit the budget to EMCAC for input before presenting it to the City Council.

EMCAC Chair Donna Scheeder told City Council members that the document fails to break down the several sources of income and provides no information about what expenditures are needed for maintenance and capital improvement.  Scheeder told the committee that without out having access to current meaningful budget information, EMCAC has no way to advise whether the substantial rent increases for the South Hall merchants proposed by DGS are justified.

Eastern Market Community Advisory Committee Charges DGS With Flouting Law Budget Oversight Law

By Larry Janezich

Donna Scheeder, Chair of Eastern Market Community Advisory Committee (EMCAC), told City Council members last Monday that DGS – contrary to DC law – is not respecting EMCAC’s legal obligation to advise and provide oversight on Eastern Market’s budget.  Her statement came during testimony before CM Mary Cheh’s Budget and Oversight hearing on the Department of General Services.

According to Scheeder the law requires the Eastern Market Manager to submit the market’s budget to EMCAC prior to the start of each DC fiscal year budget cycle.  “You will note that you have no recommendations from EMCAC because there was no prior submission to EMCAC for review.  What is required in the legislation was not done,” she told the Committee.

Scheeder said EMCAC was told by DGS’s Market Manager by email, that the budget would have to remain internal until it is released to the City Council.  Scheeder added, “DGS’s refusal to follow (the law) is an affront to both our organization and the Council….”

On Friday, March 24, EMCAC did receive was a document designated “Mayor’s Proposed Budget for the Eastern Market Fund,” but, Scheeder said, the document fails to break down the several sources of income and provided no information about what is needed for maintenance and capital improvement expenditures – nor did it include any information about what was budgeted for 2018.  Scheeder told the committee that without out having access to current meaningful budget information, EMCAC has no way to advise whether DGS’s proposed substantial rent increases for the South Hall merchants are justified.

Other issues raised by Scheeder and EMCAC Secretary Monte Edwards include the failure of DGS to provide funds for capital improvements as required by law, DGS’s slow walking of EMCAC’s advice on the need to address security for the 7^th Street open air market – a target for terrorists, Scheeder said – and lack of clarity on DGS’s intent regarding funding for the prospective five year strategic plan.

CM Cheh responded, noting that she had heard the concerns of the South Hall merchants at an earlier oversight hearing on city agencies, adding, “I take it we’re not very good as government in managing operations – I will be talking to DGS about that.  We need to press for repairs and management to make this a good and effective market everybody seems to love.”

CM Allen responded, saying he wanted to focus on how to put together a strategic plan, asking, “Do I need to work with the Chair for funding?”  Scheeder told Allen, that EMCAC doesn’t know the status of any funding for the study, but before funding is allocated, “we need to have a stakeholder’s meeting to talk about the scope of the study and what needs to be included.”

Allen agreed that engaging the community would help chart a path forward and said he would follow-up with DGS Director Gillis about budgeting for the study and about EMCAC’s budget oversight role.

DGS has submitted a request for proposals regarding a strategic plan, but EMCAC has refused to consider it because their advice had not been sought on elements of the request.  See here:  http://bit.ly/2HPlMSg

EMCAC will hold a special meeting at 7:00pm in the North Hall of Eastern Market on Wednesday, April 4, to advise on the DGS proposal to contract for the development of a strategic plan for the Eastern Market Special Use area.

DC’s US Attorney Grilled by ANC6B Reps on Rape Stats, Small Crimes & the Injustice of “Simple Assault”

by Larry Janezich

Last Tuesday night, US Attorney for the District, Jesse Liu, appeared before ANC6B.  Liu, on the job just six months, brought half a dozen of her staff, including Doug Klein, Community Prosecutor for the MPD’s First District.

Liu said that her office – the largest US Attorney’s office in the nation – has 300 attorneys and prosecutors and an equal number of non-attorney staff.  As both the local and federal prosecutor for DC, the office deals with local prosecutions extending from misdemeanor drug possession and murders to federal prosecutions on child porn, gangs, financial fraud, and terrorism.

Liu said the office focuses on violent crime and develops strategies to reduce and prevent violent crime.  She said she was committed to interacting with the community.

Liu took questions from the Commissioners and first out of the gate was Commissioner Denise Krepp, who rose from her chair to say, “I’m here because I want to ask you if you’re going to respond to my letter of February 8 regarding statistics on prosecution of rapes.  Do you plan on answering my letter to find out how many campus rapes have been prosecuted?”  Krepp explained that she had had to sue DOJ to get information that 1 out of 48 college campus rapes had been prosecuted, only to have those figures questioned by the District’s US Attorney’s office at a panel discussion of rape which she monitored at George Washington University.

Liu told Krepp that she hadn’t seen the letter and would take a look at it.  Klein reminded Krepp that US Attorneys who attended the GWU panel had informed her that sex complaints are reviewed by two senior prosecutors independently – they look at the evidence, the cooperation of the victim, what is provable in court, and what they can present to a grand jury. “Statistics,” he said,” don’t reflect how cases are reviewed” and “as prosecutors we are ethically responsible to review and prosecute or not”.

For Krepp, the bottom line is that “There are multiple rapes going on in DC and I’m not willing to let the Department of Justice not prosecute them.”

Klein said we will review this and “definitely get back in touch.”  ANC Chair Dan Ridge closed the discussion, asking Krepp to inform the ANC whether she had received a reply by the next meeting.

Up next, Commissioner Jennifer Samolyk told Liu she was concerned that too often MPD seems to be “going through the motions” regarding misdemeanor arrests and once suspects are arrested they are quickly back on the streets.  Liu told Samolyk that the standard for an arrest by MPD is “probable cause” – while the standard for prosecution is “beyond a reasonable doubt.”  Samolyk said that “these small cases are important because they are the ones we deal with on an everyday basis – every day of our lives.”  Liu pointed out that in most cases where a crime is committed by a juvenile, it is prosecuted by the DC Attorney General’s office.

Commissioner James Loots backed up Samolyk’s concern, citing patters of smaller crimes, noting that in one case MPD arrested 12 individuals in his single member district which resulted in no prosecutions.  The pattern of crime, he said, continued.  Loots added that the smaller less high-profile crimes significantly affect the quality of life, and suggested that selective prosecution of misdemeanors might have an effect on an issue which is important for the community.

Commissioner Chander Jayaraman raised the issue of what constitutes “simple assault,” citing his personal experience having been mugged – suffering a broken nose – outside his own house.  He was surprised to see the attack classified by MPD as a “simple assault.”  Klein went through the categories of assault, noting that simple assault can include everything from being spit on to being hit in the face.  Felony assault generally involves a significant injury and hospital stay.  Klein said the definition of simple assault is “a term of art,” pleading that “these definitions precede me.”  Another attorney from the US Attorney’s office interjected that the classification of an assault depends on the circumstances – witnesses, search issues, the jury – “it’s a very fact specific inquiry.”

ANC6B Chair Dan Ridge followed up, wondering why simple assaults don’t go into the daily crime reports.  Klein said that was an MPD statistics issue.

In a related matter, Ridge raised the issue of the nature of “simple assault” at MPD’s Sector 2 (PSAs 104, 107, 108) meeting in Southeast Library on Thursday night.  Captain John Knutsen, MPD, Sector 2, reinforced the position of the U.S. Attorneys at the ANC6B meeting two nights earlier, on how much the classification of an assault depends on the ability of the victim to identify his or her attacker.  In attendance at the meeting were two mothers whose children had been “beat up” recently by other students near Potomac Avenue Metro.  Another mother was present to ask about the lack of an MPD alert regarding a group of up to 20 students who had attacked her son near 10th and North Carolina Avenue.  Her son had been rescued, she said, by a “hero” – a nearby public utility worker.  The woman spoke for all of the mothers and others at the meeting, asking “What can be done?”

Ridge pushed for MPD to put all crimes – including simple assault – on the mpd.press@dc.gov notices to the community listservs, a suggestion endorsed by others at the meeting.  One person emphatically agreed, saying she would rather know about a (currently-unreported simple assault) than a “shoplifting at CVS.”

Knutsen, said he would explore the broader use of the MPD Alerts and offered to share additional information regarding the classification of assaults.  He did allow that “Right now, whatever’s happening is not working” – apparently referring to MPD’s inability to address misdemeanors like simple assault, owing to the technical issues governing the classification of the crime.
