Over the course of his residency, both as a DC Government employee and as a private citizen, Mr. Drucker has worked tirelessly and volunteered countless hours of his personal time to improving the quality of life for the citizens of the District of Columbia, including ending blighted conditions and urban decay, fighting rat infestation, and combatting chronic violations of D.C. government regulations and enforcing city codes. His most recent project, extending well over ten years, is advocating for the removal of duplicate utility poles, which PEPCO leaves standing when new poles are installed.
