Dismissal of OOG-2024-0005 OMA Dismissal ANC

On March 26, 2024, Director Allen dismissed this Open Meetings Act complaint against an Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC) because it did not raise issues within the Director’s authority under the Open Meetings Act. ANCs are not considered public bodies under the Open Meetings Act. The dismissal did not consider or evaluate the merits of the complaint regarding either the ANC's conduct or that of any individual. The allegations that fell outside of the scope of the Director's authority were referred to the Office of Advisory Neighborhood Commissions (OANC).
