Wal-Mart, Inc. is making plans to build a store at East Capitol Street NE and 58th Street NE (Capitol Gateway). The land, which is 10 acres, belongs to the DC Housing Authority. The private development partner is A&R Development. Wal-Mart is only one store planned for the 10 acres but it is a big part. Mayor Gray has pledged a Community Partnership Initiative with WalMart. Capitol Gateway, however, will be governed by the planned unit development (PUD) process, http://tiny.cc/dqvvb. The PUD process allows for greater community input and implementation of a legally binding Community Benefits Agreement (CBA). Do not fall into the trap that this is a done deal! Stay positive, ask questions, get involved, be a part of the progress and growth of YOUR community!

Are you or a neighbor having trouble with an unpaved alley, litter on your block, or illegal activity? Join the Get em Up campaign! Our calls for service to 311 and 911 are low. Because of that we do not get the attention and money we need. The Get em Up campaign means calling 311 and 911, recording the service request number and the date, and following up in 10 days. Weve got to have the paper trail to back up our concerns for safety. GET EM UP!!
