New business: After a lengthy discussion on the Hanover Area Beautification a motion to delay the event to June 5 (this has since been further delayed until July 24) since our organization had not received the check from ANC5C and the checking account was not established.

Old business:  MM Washington was discussed and Ms. Pickney reported that the developer had not presented their plan to our group or the BACA group.  It was decided that the developers will be invited to next meeting.
