Pepco’s Linda Greenan said that if the current system breaks down, it could possibly take weeks to fully restore power. The company plans to add about 10 miles of underground transmission cable, replace aging infrastructure and equipment, and construct a new substation in Mount Vernon Triangle, resulting in faster service restoration when problems occur and an improved ability to accommodate locally generated solar power. District work will be completed by 2021. The Public Service Commission must review the project, with certain aspects also subject to approval of the Board of Zoning Adjustment.

■ commissioners unanimously supported plans for four works of art by Betsabeé Romero in the New York Avenue NW median strip between 12th and 13th streets.

The art, based on tires, will be there for two years; it will then be replaced by another art project.

■ commissioners unanimously supported plans for the 5K Race for Every Child on Saturday, Oct. 21. About 5,000 participants are expected. The event will begin at Freedom Plaza and benefit Children’s National Medical Center.

■ commissioners unanimously supported a liquor license application for an Indian restaurant with 112 inside seats and up to 30 outside at 611 I St. NW.

■ commissioners unanimously supported plans to close the block of 12th Street SW between Independence Avenue and Jefferson Drive on select Fridays to accommodate a farmers market. Project manager Leslie Burks said it would probably be closed three times this year.

■ commissioners voted unanimously to ask the D.C. Department of Transportation to follow American Medical Association guidelines when installing LED streetlights, which would preclude use of the harsher colors that have been installed in some locations.

Reactions to the plans were mixed, with commissioners and neighbors expressing both praise and criticism. Developers will return to ANC 3E in July.
