The ABC Board approved the Adams Morgan Moratorium Zone Notice of Fifth Emergency and Proposed Rulemaking, by a 3-0 vote on April 11, 2024.  The rulemaking:

• Renews the Adams Morgan Moratorium for 3 years.
• Increases the cap on the number of CT, DT, CX, and DX retailer licenses to 16.
• Maintains all other restrictions in the existing moratorium.

The Board intends to take final rulemaking action in not less than thirty (30) days after publication of this notice in the D.C. Register. These proposed rules will be sent to the DC Council Council for the District of Columbia (Council) for a ninety (90)-day period of review. The emergency rules shall remain in effect for 120 days, expiring on August 9, 2024, unless superseded by an emergency or final rulemaking.
