Glover Park Moratorium Zone Approval Resolution of 2026

This resolution approves new rules that extend a long-standing restriction on issuing certain alcohol licenses in the Glover Park neighborhood of Washington, D.C. The primary goal is to maintain a quiet residential environment by preventing the opening of new nightclubs, multipurpose venues, and most taverns within a specific area. While the ban on these businesses remains in place, the rules make one exception by allowing a single new tavern license to be issued in the zone. The change takes effect immediately and is intended to address resident concerns about noise, safety, and the concentration of nightlife establishments.
