The Advoc8te has received a copy of the 2006 ABRA Voluntary Agreement signed by J. Wook Yoo licensee of Mart Liquor and Phil Pannell, Executive Director of the Anacostia Coordinating Council (ACC) and Commissioner Mary Cuthbert (Chair of ANC 8C at the time). In exchange for Mr. Pannell withdrawing his protest to the Mart Liquor renewal license this Voluntary Agreement was signed.
