Since 2001, the Committee of 100 has presented its annual Vision Awards to recognize projects, programs, plans, and the work of organizations and individuals that are visionary, innovative, and provide a notable benefit to the District of Columbia. This year, the Barbara Hartman Award for Planning and Zoning goes to Monte Edwards, Chair of the CHRS City Planning Committee.
