ANC2F serves Logan Circle, Thomas Circle, Old City, Blagden Alley, Franklin Square, and parts of Shaw and Downtown. It is composed of six Commissioners, each representing a Single Member District (SMD). The ANC also employs a part-time Executive Director.

Visit the Commissioners Page for contact information, biographical information, and SMD boundaries.

Commissioners are elected by the residents of their SMD (approximately 2,000 residents per district). Commissioners are nonpartisan, unpaid local government officials and serve a two-year term.

In 1973, the District of Columbia Home Rule Charter established Advisory Neighborhood Commissions (ANC’s). ANC’s consider a wide range of policies and programs affecting their neighborhoods, including:

In fact, no public policy area is excluded from their purview.

In each of these areas, the intent of the ANC legislation is to ensure input from an advisory body that is made up of the residents of the neighborhoods that are directly affected by government action. The ANC’s are the body of government with the closest official ties to the people in a neighborhood.

ANC's present their positions and recommendations on issues to various District government agencies, as well as the Executive Branch, and the D.C. Council. They also present testimony to independent agencies, boards and commissions, usually under rules of procedure specific to those entities. By law, ANC recommendations must be accorded "great weight" by government agencies, meaning that agencies must consider the ANC’s view and must explain it reasoning if it chooses not to follow the ANC’s decision.

There are 37 ANC’s throughout the city, totaling 286 Commissioners.

ANC2F meetings are currently held on the first Wednesday of each month at 7 p.m. at the Washington Plaza Hotel, 10 Thomas Circle, N.W. Please see our Meetings Page.

ANC2F is composed of six Single Member Districts (SMDs), each of which includes about 2,000 residents. Voters who reside in the same SMD as the candidate elect the Commissioners. Commissioners are nonpartisan, unpaid local government officials.
