Request to submit 311 ticket
Hello, I hope everyone had a good weekend! I am writing regarding the white SUV illegally parked on Ind at the intersection with 11th. It has been there at least 44 days. It was much further from the curb before it was hit by a bus, last weekend...? Anyway, 2 previous attempts to get it removed were unsuccessful. Today I opened another Abandoned vehicle/Danger to public space ticket AND understand if there are multiple similar tickets, it is more likely to be resolved. If you would like to open a ticket, it is a White Buick Encore SUV with Alabama tag number 908BBL. It has been parked for at least 44 days. I chose 1107 Ind as the closest address so they look on Independence, not 11th. (Yes, if you put our address it will be closed as vehicle not found. ?) Thank you. Cathy

Mott¡¯sMarket Update & Invitation
Dear Friends and Neighbors, As you all almost certainly know there has been an effort afoot to save Mott¡¯s Market by buying the building, renovating it and leasing it to a market operator to run a corner store. To date, more than 70 investors mostly from our broader Capitol Hill neighborhood have invested (mostly $5,000 to $10,000) in a newly formed limited liability company, we are nearing completion of renovations on the apartment and have submitted a permit application for the renovations to the first floor and the facade. We have also found an operator to lease the commercial space. His name is Peyton Sherwood (son of long time NBC Anchor Tom Sherwood who is co-host of the Poltics Hour with Kojo Naamdi) and he has successfully opened several restaurants/bars including St. Vincents (a wine bar and jazz venue) and Midland¡¯s Beer Garden up on U Street. Peyton was looking for a new project and loved the story of the neighborhood group forming to save the market and was inspired to put together a business plan that is consistent with our vision and he believes from experience can succeed. The front portion of the store which was the existing footprint of the market prior to closing, will continue to be used as a market. We have cleared out the stairwell and reoriented the stairs to the basement creating space for a sandwich counter which will sell freshly made sandwiches and other prepared foods as well as wine and beer for consumption on premises including in a garden patio in the rear and on the sidewalk out front. The store will also serve breakfast items and coffee drinks in the morning. The store will NOT be a traditional bar and will close by 8PM but will provide another site in our neighborhood where we can gather with friends for a glass wine after work, grab lunch while working from home or send our kids after school for a bag of chips. . We believe Peyton has a great design aesthetic and has the experience to make this work. He is looking to build on the neighborhood enthusiasm and has proven very receptive to ideas such as using the store as a drop off point for the CSA that currently uses our garage as the drop-off point and selling fresh produce from the farm. He would also like to continue the events that the LLC has been running thoughout the year as well as implementing some other ideas of his own. As some of you may have heard Martha and I have gotten pretty deeply involved with the project. We firmly believe like most of you that we live in a unique neighborhood. Part of what makes it so special is places like the Eastern Market, Hill Center and the many locally owned corner markets that dot the Hill. Once these markets are converted to housing, they are not replaced. So when Mott¡¯s closed we were early joiners of the effort to Save Mott¡¯s Market, have made a meaningful investment in the LLC and are also providing financing to Peyton. David (whose immigrant grandparents ran a kosher market in Newport Rhode Island) was able to lend his professional skills as a transactional lawyer to forming the entity, raising the necessary debt financing, and developing the governance model. He is serving on the board and along with the other board members have driven the effort to find a suitable tenant and manage the renovation. It is an audacious vision, and we are perilously close to pulling it off. We want to invite you to join us by considering an investment in the Neighborhood LLC. We still need to raise $50,000 of additional new investment (which will unlock $50,000 of additional commitments by the existing investor base). We are asking for a minimum investment of $5,000 and can arrange a payment plan over 1 to 3 years if necessary. Like any investment there are no guarantees but please rest assured that we have put together a business plan with assumptions we believe are reasonable (all of which we are happy to walk you though) which shows that the company will be cash flow positive within 3 years (allowing small to moderate distributions to the equity holders) and will pay off its mortgage in under 20 years do

Tree removal on 11th st!
Hello Neighbors, I am happy to announce that finally the two dead trees in front of 219 and 221 11th st SE are scheduled for removal next week, March 26-27! (I requested it almost a year ago) You'll see the signs posted on the trees. So, be sure NOT to park in front next week and let your neighbors know too. We don't want to delay their removal further because a car is parked there preventing the tree people from doing their job! I will be sure to be on them to grind out the stumps and put in new tress. Though likely that won't happen till the fall since it is hard for young trees to survive our brutal summers. Thanks for your attention to this request! Antonia

Letter to Save Pacci's on Lincoln Park
Hey Friends and Neighbors - check out this campaign below to save Pacci¡¯s at Lincoln Park. See Skinners background info to learn more. Begin forwarded message: From: Michael Skinner <michael.skinner.dc@...> Subject: Letter to Save Pacci's on Lincoln Park Date: March 12, 2024 at 2:33:45 PM EDT To: Michael Skinner <michael.skinner.dc@...> Hi Friends, Some of you may know of Pacci's, the new-ish restaurant on the east end of Lincoln Park. They need some help from the neighborhood to get a variance to their zoning to allow them to operate their second floor as part of the restaurant. Otherwise, they may close. Here's the google form to sign on in favor of the variance. And here's more background info... Councilmember Allen will be sending a second letter to the members of DC's Board of Zoning Adjustment next week, urging them to grant a variance of use for Pacci's, located at 106 13th Street, SE on Lincoln Park, to enable the restaurant to use its second floor for dining. We need your support - please sign to add your name to the letter! Background: In December 2023, Councilmember Allen wrote a letter to the Board of Zoning Adjustment supporting Pacci's application for a variance to allow them to use their second floor for dining, rather than as a small, residential space (which has never been occupied by anyone besides restaurant staff). The change - supported by neighboring ANC representatives and neighbors - would enable Pacci's to sustain itself and ensure this space on Lincoln Park doesn't turn over yet again. Since 2013, three restaurants have come and gone, likely because the building is small -- just 1,500 square feet -- and can't successfully host both a restaurant and residential space. The pressing concern is that, without intervention to change the zoning, the building will remain mostly vacant or continue to play host to a rotating cast of short-lived businesses. Here's a link to Councilmember Allen's first letter: https://www.charlesallenward6.com/letter_from_cm_allen_to_board_of_zoning_adjustment_regarding_case_20996 Best, michael Michael Skinner 1212 Walter SE WDC 20003 C - (301) 523-7667 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Mott's Investors" group.

backyard commotion on 200 block of 10th yesterday evening
With apologies for those receiving this twice, I am passing along a message from Sapna at 229. Sapna added that she heard that the prosecutor declined to charge in this situation and the minor was released. -- Neighbors, We at 229 called the cops tonight. We heard a commotion in our backyard around 9:43PM. I opened the curtain to see someone jumping from our backyard into our neighbor's backyard at 231. That is why you may have seen the police in the alley and on 10th. They came quickly after being called; they were already in the area after seeing a suspicious car with a broken window crash into another car on 10th. They have caught someone in a neighboring yard. I am not sure they caught everyone. I don¡¯t have more details but it is very concerning that people are jumping into our backyards now, not simply running through the alley. Stay safe, Sapna -- Cara Spencer

Package Theft
Hello everyone, We had two packages delivered this morning at around 1227. At 1247 they were taken by a figure hiding their face. I¡¯m attaching the video in case anyone spots them in the street. We¡¯ve reported this to the police so this is just a heads up but it looks like someone is targeting our block. Tom and Shannon (1015 Independence Ave SE) Sent from Outlook for iOS
