(Washington, DC) - The DC Department of Consumer & Regulatory Affairs (DCRA) will host a informational session with licensed street vendors to assist the agency in determining a fair and equitable fee for vending site permits.

The session will begin at 7 pm on Wednesday, August 13, 2008, at 441 4th Street, NW, in the Old Council Chambers.

DCRA representatives will outline the costs associated with implementing the city’s vending program and present various options. Our goal is to determine these fees in a way that ensures maximum vendor input and a transparent process.
