Public Space Committee Meetings

The Public Space Committee Hearings will be conducted online virtually until further notice. Please contact the committee by email at [email protected] for additional program information. 

The Public Space Committee is a citywide body that meets monthly to review and render decisions on a variety of types of permit applications for the use and occupancy of the public right of way that does not fall within the regular permitting process such as sidewalk cafes; over-height retaining walls; over-height fences; and security bollards. The specific dates, times, and locations of these meetings are listed below. The committee is staffed by the District Department of Transportation, the Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs, the Office of Planning, and the Secretary of the District of Columbia.

For additional information about the Public Space Committee, or to electronically receive Public Space Committee notices, please send your request to [email protected].

Please note, that as of September 2021, the Public Space Committee webpage has been moved. Please visit https://pschearing.dc.gov for updated hearing dates, minutes, and agendas.
