This issue has been going on for years longer than I was ever cognizant of it, and my first thought was "It's about damn time!" Unfortunately, my second thought had to be "I have to wonder if D.C. wasn't known primarily as a "black" city, if it would have been given voting representation before now."
If you want D.C. to be a Federal city only, don't let people live there. If you do let them live there, I believe we fought a war with the Brits over this whole "No Taxation without Representation" thing.
