Lastly, this PDF contains the results of the member survey.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to complete it.  We received 74 responses, a strong rate of return, representing approximately 25% of the membership.  As explained in the survey, the goal was to get a sense for what issues are important to members; tonight we hope to drill down a bit more regarding why and how this should inform comment to the DC Council.

See you tonight.  By the way, if you have not already renewed your membership, please do.  You can renew online or print off a hard copy form to mail in at:  https://www.cpcadc.org/join-or-renew/.
Thank you as always for your support and engagement,
Barr Weiner President

** We want to send a big thank you to everyone who stuck with us this evening through our technical difficulties.  We appreciate Zach Rybarczyk from Main Street and some of our wonderful Cleveland Park business owners, Mark Handwerger of Atomic Billiards, Dega Schembri of Foundation Fitness, and Vanessa Lim of Spices, all taking their time to meet with our community and share their stories of challenges, landlord’s working with them to make it through, and of community members’ support, through this pandemic.  Unfortunately, due to our technical difficulties, we will not be able to share a recording of the meeting, but check back in the coming days to read a short summary of topics discussed and ideas shared about how to help our businesses as colder weather approaches.
