Help Support The River School's Proposed New Campus at 4220 Nebraska Avenue

The DC Board of Zoning Adjustment (BZA) will hold a public hearing on The River School's proposal on October 27, 2021. The interests and perspectives of members of the community and other interested stakeholders are important considerations that will be taken into account by the BZA as part of their decision-making process.  ANC3D and ANC3E will also review and take a position on The River School proposal. Pursuant to Dc Code, the recommendations of the ANCs will be given “great weight” by the BZA.
