The notice, authorized by DCRA Director, Linda Argo, cites DC Code that stipulates that billboards must not be located within 200 feet of another billboard and within 200 feet of a residential neighborhood. The notice also stipulates that the billboards must come down by Oct 6.

I would like to acknowledge the efforts of all neighbors in this effort but especially Denise!! I still hope she wears the hat thought

Great job to all involved. This is a major first step
in ridding neighborhood blight.
Yea!
Bravo! I can’t wait to see how nice it looks without the billboards…that little block of P is really shaping up!
This is really fantastic, I hope they don’t get their appeal in before the 6th… if they do, I guess it’s on to round #2…
