A
C
Good
evening,
thank
you,
madam
madam
chair
and
members
of
the
administration
and
public
works
committee.
It
is
a
honor
to
be
here
this
evening
with
three
incredibly
talented
third
graders
here
in
Evanston
that
we
are
going
to
recognize
for
national
water
week,
National
Water
Week
is
coming
up.
It
is
on
May
6
through
May,
12th
I.
C
Don't
think
I
have
to
tell
any
of
you
of
the
folks
in
this
room
how
important
water
is
in
our
lives
and
how
blessed
we
are
to
have
one
of
the
freshest
sources
of
water
in
the
world
in
the
in
the
Great
Lakes.
So
we
had
three
third
graders
who
did
these
wonderful
art
projects
and
I
would
like
to
call
them
up
and
and
recognize
each
of
them.
Darrell
King,
who
is
our
director
of
what
the
water
utility
here
in
Evanston
is
up?
C
All
right,
so
the
first
award
that
we
have
is
what's
called
the
People's
Choice
Award,
and
this
means
that
this
young
lady
was
chosen
by
the
people
for
her
art
work
and
so
I
right
now
would
like
to
have
Alice
Brown
come
on
up
here
from
Willard
elementary
school,
all
right
Alice.
This
is
pretty.
This
is
pretty
exciting.
We've
got,
we've
got
a
couple
different
things
for
you.
Let's
have
you
stand
okay
and
I
think
we
probably
want
to
get
a
real,
quick
photo
here
with
your
artwork.
C
C
This
meant
that
I
had
to
choose
the
winner
and
it
was
really
hard
because
we
had
20
different
ones
to
choose
from
and
they
were
all
fantastic
and
we
had
boys
and
girls,
even
though
you're
gonna
sing
only
girls
up
here
today
as
the
as
the
winners
and
so
the
second
one
is
lauren.
Barnett
from
king
literary,
&,
fine,
art
school,
all
right.
C
All
right-
and
you
stay
up
here
for
a
second
Lauren-
we're
gonna,
get
a
photo
of
everybody
and
the
third
one
that
we
have
and
the
final
one
is
the
water
spirit
award.
This
is
the
one
that
is
chosen
by
our
water
utility
director,
Darrell
King
and
his
staff,
and
the
winner
of
that
award
is
Rosalie.
Robertson
come
on
up
here.
Rosalie.
Is
that
Saint
an
ASUS
elementary
school.
C
C
Well,
the
other
thing
is
this:
art
is
going
to
be
exhibited
at
the
Evanston
Public
Library
on
national
water
week,
which
is
the
May
6
through
the
12th,
and
then,
when
we
finish
displaying
it
there
we're
gonna,
see
about
displaying
it
here
at
the
City
Hall.
We
have
a
little
mayors
board
out
there
in
front
of
my
office,
where
we
put
put
works
of
fine
art.
Alright,
so
congratulations.
We
also
have
one
other
thing
for
each
of
you
that
mr.
King
will
give
you
and
then
we'll
just
we'll
go
out
one
at
a
time.
C
C
A
Congratulations
to
our
students.
We
are
going
to
start
with
our
agenda
items
and
we
will
take
public
comment
as
the
item
comes
up.
So
if
there's
anyone
who
has
not
signed
up
for
a
public
comment,
you
can
even
come
talk
to
you.
You
can
see
Kimberly
other
than
that.
We're
just
gonna
call
your
name.
As
your
item
comes
up.
First
thing
is
payroll:
alderman
Rainey!
May
you
can
you
start
payroll?
Please.

D
E
D
A
A
F
B
Padma
rainy,
well
I'm,
not
sure
where
this
is
because
I'm
reading
it
off
the
bills,
those
questions
so
could
I
just
ask
a
question:
yeah
I'm,
not
looking
at
the
bills
of
some
looking
of
questions,
the
the
item
about
the
cleanup
food,
Environmental,
Health,
epic,
landscape,
incurring
up
vacant
properties,
three
vacant
properties
where
we
did
a
cleanup,
totaling,
three
thousand
nine
hundred
dollars.
I
want
to
know
are
those
properties,
even
though
they're
vacant
I'm,
assuming
they're
owned.
G
B
Have
a
staff
who
can
answer
this
question?
I
should
have
looked
them
up.
I
have
the
ability
to
look
up
the
ownership,
but
I
didn't
have
time
so
I
want
to
make
sure
we've
leaned
those
properties,
because
nowhere
did
it
say
in
the
response
that
we
leaned
the
properties.
That's
all
I
want
to
know
all
right,
I'm,
pretty
sure
we
did.
H
Good
day,
I
cobalt,
public
health
manager.
To
answer
your
question,
those
properties
we
can
certainly
find
who
the
owners
are,
but
we
can
certainly
find
who
those
owners
are.
But
when
it
comes
to
the
vacant
property
grant
that
we
got
from
the
Illinois
Housing
Authority.
If
we
ought
to
lien
those
properties
that
pretty
much
means
that
we
will
actually
have
to
pay
them
back
whenever
we
recover
that
money.
So
the
grant
itself
is
meant
for
just
to
go
ahead
and
clean
up
those
properties,
but.
H
B
H
H
H
A
Thank
you
all
right
and
I
also
have
one
question:
well,
I!
Guess
one
comment
for
staff
regarding
the
Amazon
purchases.
I
remember
when
we
spoke
about
increasing
the
affordable,
a
minimum
wage
and
we
all
talked
about
you
know
supporting
our
local
businesses,
I
mean
making
that
commitment
so
that
our
local
businesses
could
afford
to
pay
a
livable
wage
yeah.
It
seems
to
me
that
we
are
not
doing
our
due
diligence
here
in
the
city
of
Evanston
with
addressing
that
with
our
staff
purchases
on
Amazon.
A
I
And
chair
plumbing
members
of
the
committee
good
evening
as
I
think
many
of
you
are
aware,
the
minority
women
in
Evanston
own
business
committee
has
been
studying
this
matter
for
the
better
part
of
a
year
where
I
think
awaiting
their
final
report
back
to
the
council
on
this
matter,
and
so
once
we
have.
That
report
we'll
be
able
to
take
some
additional
steps.
A
Okay,
well,
hopefully,
we
can
still
encourage
our
staff
to
or
staff
who
are
listening
to
me
can
be
encouraged
to
shop
locally,
to
pre-plan.
That,
and
also,
if
I
can
ask
I
guess
she
wasn't.
City
manager.
I
did
some
poking
around
in
Amazon
and
I
think
that
there
is
a
way
that
we
can
work
with
Amazon
as
a
municipality,
and
we
can
make
sure
that
purchases
that
are
made
on
Amazon
are
initially
try
to
be
procured
from
local
vendors
and.
I
A
I
am
hopeful
that
that
will
happen
very
soon.
So.
Thank
you.
Alright
next
item
I
will
take
is
a
3.1,
sustainable
pest
control
and
pesticide,
and
excuse
me
for
being
on
the
wrong.
Did
we
vote
on
I'm?
Sorry,
we
need
to
do
we
get
a
motion
and
second,
okay.
Okay,
thank
you,
sorry
about
that.
It's
all
in
favor
of
passing,
Amazon
credit
card
purchases,
please
say
hi,
okay,
any
opposed,
and
what.
A
Right,
3.1,
sustainable
pest
control
and
pesticide,
so
the
staff
recommends
City
Council
except
in
place
on
file.
That
proposed
report
for
resolution.
20
point
R
10
the
pass
in
April
2010.
Adopting
the
pesticide.
Excuse
me:
sustainable
pest
control
of
pesticide
reduction
policy.
We
have
a
second
there.
A
Have
a
question
for
that?
Thank
you
Paul.
So
my
question
in
looking
at
this.
As
there
was
let
me
get
to
the
page.
There
was
a
mention
of
I'm.
Sorry.
There
was
a
mention
of
a
title
in
here
that
I
was
unsure
that
we,
if
we
were
hired
somebody
of
your
you're,
actually
that
person
I
think
they
were
that
IPM
coordinator,
oh
yeah,.
A
J
I
have
a
short
presentation
just
to
highlight
the
report
itself.
Okay,
good
evening,
madam
chair
members
of
the
committee
Paul
D'agostino
environmental
services
coordinator
for
the
city,
I'm
gonna
just
highlight
the
the
report.
I
don't
want
to
go
through
it
word
by
word.
This
is
our
pesticide
use
and
reduction
pesticide
efforts
I.
This
is
a
report
that
we
have
to
do
every
other
year
pertaining
to
resolution
20
our
10,
which
was
passed
in
in
2010.
J
The
goal
of
this
policy
is
to
reduce
pesticide
applications
on
city
owned
or
leased
properties
to
the
maximum
extent
feasible
through
lease
toxic
integrated
pest
management
techniques.
The
definition
of
IPM,
which
was
in
that
resolution,
is
a
pest
management
technique
that
gives
preference
to
the
safest
pest
control
methods
and
uses
conventional
chemical
pesticides
only
when
no
other
feasible
alternatives
exist.
It
addresses
the
underlying
causes
of
the
pest
problems
and
seeks
to
find
effective,
long-term
solutions
and
emphasizes
prevention.
J
The
background
on
this
further
is
the
policy
also
defined
prohibited
pesticides,
but
allowed
exceptions
such
as
water
treatment,
chemicals
rodenticide,
baits,
biological
pesticides
and
things
like
that.
It
also
requires
very
specific
signage
before
and
after
pesticide
applications,
as
well
as
certain
related
record-keeping
reporting
and
training
of
city
staff.
Most
of
these
requirements
meet
and
actually
exceed
what
the
state
of
Illinois
law
requires.
J
As
far
as
the
Health
and
Human
Services
Department
goes,
inspectors
consult
with
residents
on
bedbug
and
rodent
issues
and
use
outside
vendors
to
implement
the
control
measures
using
IPM
principles,
and
you
can
see
on
this
chart
what
the
last
three
year
years
of
their
calls
were.
As
far
as
the
Public
Works
Agency
goes.
J
Evanston
parks
are
generally
pesticide
free.
We
have
reduced
the
use
of
pesticides
over
sixty
percent
the
last
five
years.
We
use
various
pesticides
occasionally
only
when
other
control
measures
are
not
successful.
First,
we
have
some
very
heavily
user
athletic
fields
in
town
and
they
require
fertilizers
and
some
selective
herbicides
to
maintain
healthy
and
safe
conditions,
because
they're
heavy
use
it
compacts
the
soil
on
a
repeated
basis
and
the
weeds.
J
Beginning
at
2017,
only
herbicides
classified
as
toxicity
category
three
are
used
for
the
resolution.
Toxicity
category
one
are
the
most
toxic
and
category
three
are
the
least
toxic
beginning
in
2012.
The
city
switched
to
organic
fertilizers
on
all
athletic
fields
in
public
parks,
athletic
fields
received
two
applications
of
fertilizer
annually.
In
several
larger
high
use,
parks
receive
one
application
on
an
annual
basis,
we're
developing
a
webpage
an
hour
that
will
explain
this.
This
policy
and
our
pesticide
reduction
efforts.
The
webpage
is
under
development
right
now
and
will
include
this
original
resolution
for
2010.
J
We
have
some
partnerships
since
2015
we've
been
working
with
green,
wiser,
organic
lawn
care
in
Evanston
firm
and
the
Midwest
pesticide
Action
Center
to
launch
a
pilot
program
from
pesticide
free
parks.
We
began
in
that
year
with
Ackerman
Burnham,
Shores,
Eden,
Perry
and
trien
parks,
and
we
added
the
grounds
of
the
Animal
Shelter
in
2017
and
we're
going
to
be
meeting
with
green
whys
later
this
spring.
To
see,
if
we
can
add
more
locations
to
this
program,
have
some
other
activities
related
to
this.
J
J
Using
these
grant
funds
for
that
work,
some
non
city
of
Evanston
pest
control,
services
and
practices
that
we
found
out
about.
While
we
were
writing
this
report,
commercial
pest
control,
services,
schools,
day
care
centers,
are
all
regulated
by
the
state
of
Illinois
and
those
are
pertaining
to
all
of
their
pesticide
use
and
applications.
J
Both
inside
buildings
and
outside
mosquito
control
is
carried
out
by
the
North
Shore
mosquito
abatement
district
and
by
the
city
of
Evanston,
and
this
is
all
based
on
IPM
principles,
with
the
goal
of
minimizing
deleterious
effects
of
the
environment
and
non-target
organisms,
while
using
the
most
effective
means
of
mosquito
control
available.
Ridgeville
Park
District
follows
IPM
practices
inside
their
buildings
uses
a
pest
control
company
that
specializes
in
these
practices
and
pesticides
are
not
used
in
any
other
Park
grounds.
The
Union
Pacific
Railroad
uses
an
outside
contractor
to
maintain
their
track
beds
along
it's
right
away.
J
J
Canal
Shores
golf
course
uses
IPM
best
practices
to
minimize
the
use
of
conventional
pesticides
in
2017
they
were
certified
as
an
Audubon
cooperative
sanctuary
through
the
Audubon
internationals
cooperative
sanctuary
program
and
meeting
this
process.
The
certification
standards
was
an
extensive
three-year
process
and
they
continue
to
make
progress
and
more
improvements
every
year
on.
The
golf
course.
J
J
The
report
includes
many
recommendations
for
Evanston
property
owners
on
how
they
can
reduce
pesticide
use
on
their
own
properties
in
it
and
yet
still
be
able
to
control
both
indoor
and
outdoor
pests,
including
bed
bugs
rodents
and
mosquitoes.
The
report
also
lists
many
online
resources,
detailed
information
on
the
city's
current
practices
and
Illinois
pesticide
regulations,
as
well
as
a
source
for
more
ways
that
Evans
the
residents
can
become
pesticide
free.
J
Since
we're
gonna
be
doing
this
report
every
other
year,
we
have
some
substantial
goals
between
now
and
2020.
We
want
to
conduct
an
annual
in-depth
training
with
city
employees
with
all
city
employees
through
our
licensed
pesticide
applicators,
achieve
and
document
further
reduction,
and
not
in
toxicity
of
products
used
or
also
have
a
goal
of
eliminating
the
use
of
the
use
of
glyphosate
anywhere
on
city,
property
and
glyphosate
is
the
active
ingredient
in
roundup,
which
is
a
very
commonly
used
weed
killer.
J
J
We're
going
to
develop
criteria
to
select
City
properties,
to
add
to
the
pesticide
free
parks
program
based
on
aesthetics
visibility
and
our
own
labor
needs
we're
going
to
codify
best
practices
such
as
twice-yearly
aeration
metrics
to
use
such
as
percentage
of
dandelions
reduced
to
showcase
the
beauty
and
practicality
of
pesticide
free
city
properties.
We're
also
going
to
try,
during
future
capital
improvement
projects
to
reduce
flooding
and
improve
drainage
in
our
selected
city
parks,
as
this
is
a
real
problem
and
leads
to
it
directly
to
pour
turf
conditions
when
you
have
flooding
or
really
poor
drainage.
J
J
We're
going
to
develop
and
implement
a
comprehensive
public
outreach
initiative
to
educate
residents,
property
managers
and
landscape
contractors
about
our
own
pest
control
and
pesticide
reduction
policy
and
engage
them
in
reducing
their
use
of
pesticides
and,
lastly,
give
special
attention
to
the
larger
institutions
in
the
community,
including
both
the
school
districts,
Northwestern,
University,
Evanston
hospital
and
president
st.
Francis
and,
interestingly
enough,
a
few
of
these
local
entities.
J
A
B
B
Introduce
and
I'm
gonna
call
her
speak.
I
really
appreciate
that
I
I'm
gonna
make
a
statement
first
right
over
the
years
I
you
know,
I
I
know
the
Evanston
aldermen
have
been
very
supportive
of
our
staff
and
I
think
I
have
been
extremely
supportive
of
our
staff
and
I
was
absolutely
shocked
when
I
opened
the
packet
and
I
read
that
our
staff
wrote
that
I
questioned
the
necessity
of
bike
lanes
on
Dodge.
Never
ever
and
I
want
everybody
in
this
room
to
hear
and
everybody
out
and
television
to
hear
that.
B
B
B
B
B
B
You
open
your
door,
the
your
it's
one
thing
to
get
hit
by
a
cyclist.
It's
another
thing
to
get
hit
by
a
cement
truck,
it's
another
thing
to
get
hit
by
a
moving
car.
You
are
in
the
line
if
you
are
in
moving
traffic.
If
you
want
to
park
your
car
ever,
if
you
think
it's
funny,
go
right
ahead,
I,
don't
care!
I'm
gonna
finish
this,
because
I
am
going
to
support
my
constituents.
You
want
to
park
your
car
in
rush
hour
and
that's
when
a
lot
of
people
come
home
from
work.
B
Those
who
are
not
90
does
ebony
come
home
from
work.
Everything
in
that
line
has
to
stop
everything.
Nobody
can
move,
because
the
other
line
of
traffic
is
coming.
It's
single
lane.
Each
way
there
aren't
turn
lanes
there,
except
at
Mulford
Drive,
where
you
go
into
the
levy.
Center,
it's
an
absolute
disaster
in
rush
hour.
B
The
lanes
stop
at
at
the
nursing
home
because
that's
the
route
where
the
ambulances
go
in
so
in
that
strip
in
that
strip,
from
from
Kirk
down
you
have
dawes
school,
ever
been
to
dye
school
at
when
school
starts,
double
parking,
etc.
When
Dawes
lets
out
double
parking
at
Seto,
we
have,
we
have
crossing
guards
in
the
middle
of
the
street.
B
B
We
have
James
Park
in
the
summer
people
coming
in
and
out
in
and
out
we
have
jrc,
who
has
also
has
a
daycare
center,
that's
good.
We
have.
We
have
the
nursing
home
and
on
the
corner,
we
have
the
Vet
Center
and
we
have
buses
up
and
down
all
day
long
in
a
three-block
strip,
I
stood
I
stood
at
Kirk
and
Kirk
and
dodge
with
Satna
car
before
there
was
any
fancy
any
protected
bike
lane
and
I
said
this
is
just
just
can't
happen.
B
I
got
them
to
agree
to
the
traditional
bike
lane
from
just
south
of
Oakton
to
Kirk.
There's
a
traditional
bike
lane
most
people
don't
even
know
it,
but
that's:
what's
there
the
traditional
bike
lane
it
there
was
nothing
I
could
do
from
Kirk
to
the
nursing
home
that
had
to
be
the
protected
bike.
Lane
I
I
did
not
want
it,
but
it
had
to
be
there.
B
It's
it's.
Not
it's
not
been
hopeful.
I
know
that
there
are
some
cyclists
and
I
see
Kristin
limbs
in
the
audience.
There's
she
she
couldn't
live
without
it.
I
understand
she.
She
feels
safe
with
it.
I
think
there
are
other
ways
she
can
get
where
she
needs
to
Kobe
than
she's
one
person
you
can't
get
in
and
out
of
Brummel
or
Dobson.
There
are
other
safety
factors
here.
There
are
other
safety
factors
here,
other
than
just
cycling.
B
There
are
people
factors,
there
are
traffic
factors,
there
are
people
who
are
not
on
bicycles
are
just
as
equal
as
cyclists,
and
there
has
to
come
a
time
in
some
spaces
where
that
becomes
a
factor.
There
have
been
other
lanes
in
Chicago.
I
have
talked
to
bicycle
ambassadors
in
Chicago,
who
tell
me
about
lanes
that
have
been
reversed.
B
It
is
not
the
end
of
the
world
to
reverse.
This
is
not
like.
These
lanes
are
in
the
middle
of
the
city.
These
are
at
the
end
of
the
road.
The
end,
the
last
three
blocks
on
dodge
last
three
blocks
and
I
am
asking
my
colleagues
to
respect
the
neighbors
who
live
against
these
bike
lanes.
To
give
some
consideration,
I
want
to
hear
the
other
side.
I
know
that
this
created
a
horrible
response.
B
When
you
thought
the
lanes
were
going
to
be
removed,
they
aren't
going
to
be
I
would
never
let
that
happen,
and
it's
not
going
to
cost
$200,000
unless
the
staff
has
a
cousin
who's
going
to
do
the
removal
and
I
don't
think
that's
gonna
happen.
This
should
cost
very
little
money,
because
I
I
was
out
there
yesterday
by
the
way,
I
drove
dodge
yesterday
from
2
o'clock
to
3
o'clock
up
and
down
dodge
I
drove
my
car
up,
I
drove
it
down,
I
drove
it
up.
It
was
over
50
degrees.
B
Yesterday
it
was
a
Sunday
afternoon.
I
know
I
know
you're
gonna,
boo
it.
This
I
saw
one
cyclist.
What
I
saw
hundreds
of
cars
hundreds
there
was
one
I
saw
one
car
up
and
out
three
times
up
and
down
dodge
there.
I
did
see
one
on
Main
Street
in
Skokie.
I
saw
one
one
couple
on
on
Dodge
up
at
by
the
school
up
by
I'm
dodge
in
front
of
e
th
s.
It's
the
traditional
bike,
lane
they're,
not
they're,
not
protected
bike
lanes
up
there
on
dodge.
B
We
just
got
information
from
our
staff
about
traffic
accidents.
We
we
got
all
those
reports
that
Evanston
now
published
it
didn't
say
where
any
of
those
accidents
were.
But
everybody
wrote
to
me
and
said:
oh,
my
god,
look
from
2015
to
2017.
Look
at
the
difference.
There
were
those
where
were
this?
Well
guess
what
one
I
mean
there
was
an
accident
at
Mulford
and
dodge
yeah.
A
K
Kirk,
thank
you.
Thank
you
and
thank
you
for
serving
everybody.
We
may
disagree,
but
this
is
a
tough
job
and
I
appreciate
your
service.
My
name
is
John
Henley
I
live
on
Dempster
and
I
am
a
founding
member
of
go
Evanston
and
we
were
formed
basically
to
promote
the
idea
that
the
streets
in
Evanston
should
work
for
every
buddy,
regardless
of
your
age,
the
type
of
bike
you
use
or
your
ability.
Our
type
of
excuse
me,
the
mode
of
transportation
you
use
the
street
should
be
a
safe
place
for
you.
K
We
so
the
to
be
clear.
We
always
understood
all
the
women
that
the
debate
was
about
protected
versus
unprotected
for
us
protected
is
very
important,
not
just
because
it
makes
bikers
that
are
out
there
feel
better
and
safer,
but
because
protected
lanes
help
pull
in
new
bikers
who
aren't
sure
about
whether
they
want
to
bike
around,
and
these
protected
lanes
help
bring
in
those
those
new
bikers
which
is
important
to
reducing
congestion.
K
As
you
said,
there
was
data
in
on
the
safety
issue.
The
data
is
real
clear,
although,
frankly,
it's
not
enough
data,
we
need
four
or
five
years
worth
of
data
to
really
understand
the
impact
of
this.
But
the
big
winners
in
on
the
new
configuration
on
dodge
was
actually
drivers,
because
we've
gone
from
twenty
seven
injuries
to
the
11,
this
from
2015
and
2017,
and
that's
very
significant,
and
that's
not
hypothetical.
That
happened
and
remains
to
be
seen
will
happen
in
in
years,
but
we
should
follow
closely.
K
This
also
I
should
know,
should
note
aligns
with
the
experiences
in
other
cities
that
have
been
put
in
bike
lanes.
It
makes
the
city
safer,
car
crashes
are
down
to
and
that's
excellent.
We
do
not
need
to
pose
a
lot
of
hypotheticals
about
protected
versus
unprotected
on
this
stretch
of
road,
because
we
actually
have
a
real-life
example.
In
2011
we
had
an
81
year
old
man,
Lane
Swanson,
who
was
killed
riding
his
bike.
K
A
L
M
Good
evening,
I
am
Dan,
Joseph
resident,
offense,
Evanston,
I'm,
74
years
old
and
ride
my
bicycle
to
Jewish,
reconstructions
congregation
at
dodge
and
Mulford
are
gonna,
go
out,
and
gentle
for
a
second
and
one
I
used
to
operate
about
a
bus
for
CTA
on
Skokie
and
on
dodge
and
I
would
never
let
anybody
troll
alderman
raining
under
my
bus
would
never
happen,
and
also
I
want
to
thank
alderman
Rainey
for
getting
dodge
speed
limit
reduced
to
25
and
dirty.
It
was
her
than
she
did
and
I.
M
Find
that
ninety
nine
point,
forty
four
100
percent
of
motorists
and
bicycles,
bicycles,
light
and
courteous.
The
same
goes
for
elected
officials
and
city
staff.
Is
a
hundred
percent
polite
and
courteous
to
paraphrase
Voltaire
Evanston
is
the
best
of
all
possible
worlds.
Please
keep
it
that
way.
Thank
you.
Thank.
N
Good
evening,
all
my
name
is
Leo.
Sherman
I
live
on
the
section
of
dodge
that
alderman
Rainey
suggests
that
we
change
it's
to
everything
that
ultimate
woman.
Rainey
said
this
is
a
unique
area.
There
are
things
there
that
don't
exist
elsewhere
in
on
dodge,
and
that's
why
we
have
a
unique
problem
here.
One
of
the
things
is
that
we
have
to
CTA
bus
lines.
We
have
concrete
trucks,
we
have
refuse
haulers
that
go
back
and
forth
between
the
area
on
McCormick
and
Oakton.
N
N
Whenever
there's
open
in
that
area,
there
was
16
inches
taken
away
from
the
traffic
lane
to
create
these
bike
lanes
and
what
that
created
was
a
buffer
between
park
cars
in
a
bike
lane
that's
wasted
space,
because
what's
happened
is
that
the
residents
have
to
park
to
avoid
being
sideswiped
losing
mirrors.
Having
damages
to
their
cars
they
park
in
that
buffered
Lane
so
effectively,
we
have
a
widened
street
in
regardless
of
this
bike
lane.
N
Nonetheless,
it's
very
important
that
this
that
the
staff
I'm
sorry
thank
the
staff
for
providing
the
information
about
the
the
data
from
2015
and
2017.
It's
incumbent
upon
the
City
Council
to
look
at
that
more
critically
than
just
totals
of
different
items.
If
you
look
at
the
the
accidents
by
community,
so
first
a
bike
community,
the
ones
the
one
area
is
between
Howard
and
Oakland-
has
showed
an
increase
of
13%
of
accidents
of
traffic
accidents.
N
The
air
in
the
areas
between
Oakton
and
main
and
deficit
to
Lake
showed
one
showed
no
change
in
the
other,
showed
a
reduction
of
one
which
was
essentially
6%,
and
the
area
between
Dempster
Lake
had
the
look
I'm
sorry
main
to
Dempster,
had
the
lowest
had
had
30%
decrease
in
their
accidents.
What
is
their
55%
of
that
area
is
no
parking
on
the
side
that
goes
north
45,
I'm.
Sorry,
75%
of
the
site
on
the
northbound
side
is
no
parking
on
the
southbound
side
is
55%,
where
there's
no
parking
typically.
N
O
P
You
don't
see
us
riding
in
them
all
the
time,
but
we
use
them
a
lot
and
our
kids
use
them
a
lot.
Okay,
thank
you.
I
understand
the
concerns
of
residents
and
I
know
the
bike
lanes
weren't
perfect
when
they
went
in
and
they
may
still
not
be
perfect,
I
think
there's
still
some
room
for
improvement.
I
think
parking
in
the
buffer
zone
with
the
wheels
in
the
buffer
zone
is
a
necessary
thing
for
people
to
exit
their
car
safely.
P
P
One
of
the
reasons
go
Evanston
formed
was
to
improve
education
and
engagement
on
the
issues
of
mobility
in
Evanston,
and
so
our
hope
is
that
we
can
help
prevent
this
from
happening
in
the
future,
because
there
seem
to
be
a
lot
of
misunderstandings
with
how
these
bike
lanes
were
going
to
play
out.
So
that's
one
of
our
goals.
P
The
other
point
I
would
like
to
make
is
that
the
Howard
Street
improvements,
which
includes
some
form
of
bike
accommodation,
have
just
been
approved
by
I'd
on,
so
we
can
see
improvements
coming
to
the
corner
of
Howard
and
dodge.
They
won't
be
protected
bike
lanes,
but
they
will
be
accommodations
for
bikes,
and
this
just
points
to
this
thought
that
we're
on
the
verge
of
developing
a
comprehensive
bicycle
network
in
Evanston.
It
is
not
there.
Yet
it
takes
years
to
build
it.
P
It
takes
years
to
build
constant
ridership
on
a
complete
network
and
we
are
not
there
yet.
The
bike
lanes
as
of
today
could
be
underused,
but
as
we
make
more
connections
to
them,
they
will
become
more
use
and
finally,
I'm.
Also
a
professional
transportation
planner,
and
one
of
the
things
that
we
have
fought
for
on
all
of
our
projects
is
predictability
and
I.
Just
worry
that
if
we
make
the
bike
lanes
protected
and
unprotected
in
certain
locations,
especially
changing
it
now
that
they're
installed
and
people
are
finally
getting
used
to
them.
P
A
Q
My
name
is
maple
Khan
I
live
at
1703,
Cleveland
Street
and
I'm
18
I
graduated
from
ETH
s
last
spring
I've
been
biking
in
Evanston,
my
whole
life
and
obviously
back
and
forth
from
the
high
school.
The
past
four
years,
I
also
bike
south
on
dodge
to
go
shopping
around
Howard
at
the
Target
or
other
shopping
malls
down
there
and
I
have
felt
much
much
safer
biking
on
dodge
since
the
protected
lanes
have
been
put
in.
R
So
my
name
is
Reuben
Perlman
long
time
resident
of
the
Ninth
Ward,
so
the
older
bike
lanes,
you
know
the
unprotected
one
didn't
offer
all
that
much
protection.
You
know,
there's
no
buffer
zone
around
parked
cars
and
anything
like
that
and
the
section
we're
talking
about
is
a
really
it's
a
critical
part,
because
you
know
around
the
yellow
line.
There
aren't
many
streets
that
cross
the
yellow
line
and
the
few
that
do
are
high-stress
routes.
R
So
you
know
if
I
want
to
get
to
someplace
long
California,
that's
a
critical
part
and
also
our
improvements,
mainly
enforcement.
There's
a
lot
of
cars,
a
park
on
the
park
in
the
lane,
there's
cars
that
don't
yield
the
bikes
and
moines
and
also
needs
to
be
more
bike,
racks
aligned
along
the
route,
especially
near
main.
Thank
you
thank.
S
Hi,
my
name
is
Nancy
Bertie
and
I
am
been
in
Evanston
since
1980
and
I
am
a
CSUN,
cyclist
and
a
driver.
So
it's
to
me
there's
no
two
sides.
It's
all
the
same
side.
The
three
blocks
in
question
I
understand
the
concern
of
the
people
there,
but
I
think
that
there
are
a
number
of
reasons
to
keep
them.
One
is
because
when
you
have
a
cyclists
go
from
a
protected
into
the
traffic,
it's
a
jolt
and
it's
you.
S
S
You
know
protected
marked
and
then
a
delineated
marked
with
lines,
not
just
the
bike
mark
all
the
way,
far
into
Chicago,
and
it
would
really
be
ashamed
to
see
that
go
as
far
as
people
getting
out
into
traffic
at
rush
hour.
Rush
hour
stinks
no
matter
where
you
are,
and
just
don't
put
your
door
until
there's
a
pause
in
traffic.
I
mean
it's
as
simple
as
that,
but
anyway,
I
hope
that
the
council
will
will
look
at
all
the
data
and
get
it
make
a
recent
decision
on
this.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you.
Douglas.
T
I've
been
a
resident
of
Evanston
for
38
30
odd
years,
and
my
kids
were
raised
here.
They're
now
grown
up
and
I
do
live
on
Dodge,
I'm,
Nancy's,
husband
and
I.
Do
not
travel
that
route.
That
part
of
the
bike
lane
that
often
but
I
do
know
in
general
that
the
protected
bike
lanes
Mitch
make
me
feel
much
more
safe
when
I'm,
when
I'm
riding
on
dodge
I
have
infrequently
ridden
in
that
area
of
Dodge
near
Howard
and
I
find
myself
a
little
bit
uneasy
in
those
areas
just
because
of
the
type
of
traffic.
T
U
Guess
I
need
no
introduction
because
Ann
Rainey
already
talked
about
me.
Thank
you,
oh
thank
you
and
I
really
appreciate
your
conscientiousness
about
taking
care
of
all
of
our
needs.
Sometimes
small,
sometimes
large,
but
I
am
speaking
in
support
of
maintaining
the
protected
bike
path.
I
do
live
in
that
three
three
block
area,
I
think
I'm
the
first
one
who
so
I
could
actually
see
the
bike
path
out.
My
window
and
I
see
it
being
used
all
the
time
in
a
very
touching
way.
Families
going
back
and
forth.
U
I
can't
tell
you
what
time
of
day,
but
over
the
three
years
that
I've
been
watching
the
bike
paths,
popularity,
grow,
I've,
seen
more
and
more
bicyclists
come
out
and
try
it
for
the
first
time.
From
my
point
of
view,
I
mean
I
use
it
to
get
to
my
mom's
house,
which
is
at
the
other
end
of
Dodge
Avenue,
and
it's
a
smooth,
smooth
sailing.
It's
so
beautiful
I
also
use
it
to
get
to
Evanston,
Public
Library
or
to
get
to
the
the
post
office,
which
is
fantastic.
U
You
just
go
right
over
to
the
church
and
then
head
over
to
them.
Couldn't
do
that
before
and
one
of
the
things
that
others
haven't
mentioned
yet
is
sometimes
when
I
go
shopping
or
I
go
out
and
do
something
and
I'm
coming
back
and
it's
just
starting
to
get
dark.
The
bike
path
with
my
bike
light
makes
me
feel
so
much
safer,
because
I
wouldn't
put
my
little
bike
light
up
against
any
car
when
it's
dusk,
whereas
in
the
bike
lane
I'm
protected.
That's
such
a
good
feeling
it's!
It's
really
changed
my
quality
of
life.
U
V
Hello,
thank
you
for
your
service,
I'm
Michael,
Moran,
surprise-surprise
I'm,
also
for
the
protected
bike
lanes.
I
live
two
blocks
from
Dodge
I
used
dodge
all
the
time
for
driving
and
for
biking.
My
son
bikes
to
school
and
back
every
day.
I'll
have
kids
at
ETA
chest
for
the
next
six
years.
I
figured
that'll
be
about
4000
trips
up
and
down
the
bike
lanes,
and
that
makes
me
sleep
a
lot
better
at
night.
I
think.
V
Maybe,
as
a
compromise
make
that
make
that
buffer
zone
a
little
narrower
it
is,
it
is
tricky
driving
there.
It
is
tricky
getting
out
of
cars
there,
but
as
it
is
everywhere-
and
maybe
there
is
a
little
more
room
there,
it
seems
like
there's
room
for
a
compromise
and
I
hope
we
can
do
it.
Thank
you,
Thank.
G
Good
evening,
I'm
Connie
also
men,
I,
live
on
Clyde,
Avenue
and
Evanston
and
alderman
Rainey.
Thank
you
very
much
for
clarifying
your
position
earlier
tonight.
That
does
make
me
feel
better
because
I
was
a
little
concerned.
I
am
in
favor
of
maintaining
the
protected
bike.
Lane
I
think
that
the
statistic
on
the
sheet
that
was
presented
significance
is
that
from
2015
there
were
10
bicycle
accidents
in
2017,
it's
down
to
3,
I,
think
that
speaks
for
itself
and
I.
Would
please
ask
that
you
not
undo
what
the
city
has
already
wisely
implemented?
Thank
you.
W
My
name
is
Doug
Holt
I've
been
a
resident
of
Evanston
for
more
than
20
years,
and
I
have
been
during
that
time
commuting
to
Chicago
from
Evanston
as
much
as
I
can
I
also
drive
cars
and
I
understand.
We
all
need
to
get
along.
I
would
speak
out
in
favor
of
keeping
and
expanding
on
designated
bike
lanes
and
really
it's
about
what
kind
of
community
we
want
to
create,
not
where
we
are
right
now.
But
what's
what
is
our
aspiration
as
a
community
and
looking
at
Chicago
and
Evanston?
W
So
I
would
just
urge
you
to
really
and
commend
you
for
the
progress,
but
also
I
would
just
say
the
works
not
done,
and
there
are
many
bike
lanes
where
you
go
and
that
suddenly
ends
such
as
the
one
I'd,
shared
and
and
so
I
think,
there's
more
work
to
be
done
and
I'd
urge
you
to
continue
the
progress
and
not
take
a
step
back.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
B
I've
lived
here
for
58
years,
so
that's
longer
than
anybody
who
spoke
and
I
think
these
lanes
to
be
reversed.
Most
people
who
spoke
are
travelling.
North
I
know
a
few
of
the
people
who
ride
into
Chicago
go
south,
but
these
are
the
last
three
blocks.
Really
it's
almost
like
two
and
a
half
blocks
going
into
Chicago
and
they
need
they
need
to
be
addressed.
B
They
are
dangerous
and
these
statistics,
you
know
when
at
Connie
the
last
person
who
spoke
last
woman
who
spoke
said
something
about
these
numbers
speak
for
themselves,
number
of
accidents,
Dodge
and
Howard,
10
10
in
2015
and
and
three
in
2017.
These
are
intersection
actually
the
accidents
at
dodge
and
Howard.
So
you
have
nothing
that
has
nothing
to
do
with
the
bike
lanes,
absolutely
nothing
to
do
with
them.
There
are
that.
Has
nothing
I,
don't
know
what
the
point
of
that
statistic
is.
B
As
a
matter
of
fact,
there
were
more
sideswipes
in
this
in
this
area
there
there
was
an
accident
that
didn't
occur
in
2015
in
2017,
so
I
I,
don't
know
what
that
has
to
do
with
anything
about
these.
They
it
has
to
be
looked
at.
Somebody
has
to
go
out
there.
Who
is
an
expert
in
this
kind
of
thing
and
watch
the
daily
activity
there
and
see
how
disruptive
and
how
chaotic
it
is.
It
is
almost
like
a
circus.
It
is
not.
B
You
will
not
see
this
kind
of
action
in
any
other
street
of
this
short
distance.
It
it
just
shouldn't
happen:
it's
a
residential
area.
It's
not
an
industrial
area.
It's
a
residential
area
where
many
people
are
retired,
who
are
home,
it
just
shouldn't,
be
happening
and
in
an
area
like
this,
and
it
needs
to
be
fixed
and
people
who
are
talking
about
riding
from
riding
from
Dodge
village
like
Christians
spoke
about
north
of
just
you
know,
just
lalala
going
up
a
lot
of
that
distance.
B
She's
going
is
not
a
protected
bike
lane
anything
along
anything
along
each
EHS.
It's
not
to
protect
the
bike
lane.
You
go
from
a
protected
bike
lane,
otherwise,
also
if
you're
going
north
as
soon
as
you
as
soon
as
you
get
up
past
skirt,
it's
not
a
protected
bike.
Lane
south
of
Oakton,
that's
not
protected,
so
you
know
I,
don't
think
people
are
thinking
when
they're
on
their
bicycle,
that
where
they
are
they're
not
always
in
a
protected
bike
lane.
So
all
right
anymore.
Just
you!
F
B
Gonna
ask
the
the
committee
direct
our
staff
to
work
with
me
in
the
neighbors
to
look
at
this
area
south
of
okhta,
and
especially
to
remove
the
to
remove
the
bike
lanes
immediately
in
front
of
the
nursing
home.
It's
a
strip
of
the
distance.
There
is
only
three
parking
spaces
that
solid
is
because
it
ends
the
ambulances
go
in
at
the
driveway
immediately
after
the
three
parking.
A
A
A
B
B
Y
B
Motion
is
that
we
direct
staff
to
work
with
me
and
the
neighbors
have
a
meeting
with
me
and
the
neighbors
to
address
the
concerns.
You
know
not
to
reverse
the
lanes
immediately,
but
to
immediately
remove
the
short
distance
in
front
of
the
nursing
home
I
mean
the
people
can't
get
in
and
out
of
their
cars.
They
can't
get
the
wheelchairs
in
and
out
of
their
car
aldermen.
So
that's
your
motion.
Wait.
We
have
us
yes
to
work
with
me
on
addressing
some
of
the
other
concerns
to
see.

Second,.
A
Any
questions
I
actually
have
a
quick
question
for
staffing
that
I
had
some
residents
who
are
interested
in
this
is
that
you
Paul
alright.
So
my
question
is
I:
have
a
few
residents
who
had
trees
removed,
I
I
know
that
I
was
not
told
by
staff
and
I'm
not
sure
if
they
were
that
they
could
pay
250
to
be
expedited
on
the
planting?
Is
that
something
that
we
usually
mail
out
or
make
sure
citizens
are
aware
of?

If
we
can

I
don't
I,
don't
really
know
how
we
do
that
I
haven't
thought
through
it,
but
if
we
are
given
a
waiver,
I
still
would
like
to
make
sure
we're
hiring.
You
know
people
who
are
equal
opportunity,

so
that's
just
I,
know
I.
Have
it
flushed
it
out,
but
I
wanted
to
make
that
statement
that
that
is
I
want
to
make

that
as

The
remaining
of
the

F
A
Wait
a
second
please!
Thank
you,
no
questions!
All
those
in
favor,
please
say:
aye
aye,
any
opposed
all
right
item
three
points
in
the
change
order
to
Central
Street
Bridge
phase,
1
engineering
contract
with
stanley
consultants,
staff
is
recommending
City
Council
authorized
city
manager
to
execute
a
change
order,
number
1
to
Central,
Street,
Bridge
phase,
1
engineering
contract
with
stanley
consultants
in
the
amount
of
twenty
seven
thousand
three
hundred
twenty
eight
dollars
and
fifty
nine
cents.
A
This
will
increase
the
overall
contract
amount
to
four
hundred,
sixty
five
thousand
four
hundred
twenty
eight
dollars
and
fifty
nine
cents.
This
is
coming
from
the
2018
general
applications
fund
for
the
Central
Street
bridge
engineering
services,
which
has
a
budget
of
$100,000
for
this
project,
of
which
one
hundred
thousand
is
remaining.
This
is
for
action.
D
Z
Z
Is
correct
so
the
current
design
has
a
crash
barrier.
That's
on
the
exterior
of
the
bridges
at
the
edge
of
the
sidewalk
over
to
canal
there's
concern
because
that's
the
trash
sorry
crash
rated
structure,
it's
not
as
attractive
as
it
could
be,
and
therefore,
if
that
crash
barrier
was
moved
to
the
edge
of
the
sidewalk
between
the
sidewalk
and
the
pavement,
then
a
more
decorative
railing
can
be
placed
on
the
exterior
of
the
bridge
and
that's
what
one
of
the
things
that's
being
contemplated
with
this
change
order
does.
Z
Z
Z
Does
set
an
example
for
what
we
would
do
and
but
we're
also
required
to
meet
IDOT
requirements,
which
is
also
part
of
a
shto
and
American
Society
safety,
transportation,
engineers
or
something,
and
so
they've
changed
their
requirements.
All
the
time
as
well
part
of
the
discussion
started
that
some
of
the
residents
thought
the
19
inch
high
railing
would
be
more
aesthetically
pleasing,
but
that
isn't
what
I
got
will
currently
allow.
They
require
42
inch.
I
crash
rail,
I.
A
Z
A
B
Z
Have
safety
measures
so
and
I'm
sorry
on
page
143,
they
talked
about
three
things:
I
think
that
they're
looking
at
one
is
they
want
to
remove
parking
on
the
bridge.
The
other
was
the
changing
the
railings
for
aesthetic
reasons
and
then
to
change
the
aesthetics
of
the
outermost
beam
of
the
bridge
as
well,
so
moving.
The
crash
barrier
is
actually
not
contemplated
in
this
change
order
at
the
first
meeting.
Z
You
have
a
very
limit
of
crash
barrier
railings
to
use,
and
if
this
is
the
one
that
was
selected
is
used
on
the
exterior
of
the
bridge,
then
that's
the
design
that
they
have
so
residents
are
concerned
and
would
like
a
more
aesthetically
pleasing
railing
as
you're
looking
at
it
from
the
canal
for
the
canal
banks
and
and
move
the
crash
railing
to
the
inside.
Next
to
the
pavement.
A

Y
Adam
sir
I'd
like
to
move
item
311,
which
is
a
change
order,
number
three
to
the
agreement
with
Copenhagen
construction
for
the
Fountain
Square
renovation
staff
is
recommending.
City
Council
authorized
the
city
manager
to
approve
the
change
order.
Number
three,
four
five

square
renovations
projects
would
extends
to
the
existing
contract.
Completion
deadline
by

days
from

1st
to

30th

Y
D
Sure
it's
just
like
my
only
question:
there's
no
charge
or
cost
to
this
change
order
is
it
likely
that
there
will
be
a
corresponding
change
order
in
the
future
for
engineering
services
relating
to
this
change
or
know.

as

talks
for

you
will
enter
the
fall
for
our
contract
negotiations
that
we
I'm
sure
we're
doing
this,
but
for
the
record
that
we
are
very
aggressive
with
these
contracts,
we
understand
I
think
the
city
residents
are
starting
to
understand
that
we
are
looking
at
some
more
deficits
this
year,
so
I'm
hopeful
that
our
union
staff
will
be
mindful
of
that
as
we
implement
these
contracts
and
ultimately
these
costs
go
to
our

A
A
B
A
D
A
AB
Thank
you
very
much.
My
name
is
Donna
Wang
sue
and
thank
you
again.
I
couldn't
help
but
notice
that
nearly
every
contract
before
this
one
were
actually
not
located
in
Evanston
previously
sitting
on
the
MWe
B
committee,
with
Alderman
Braithwaite
and
alderman
Bruce
Simmons
I
think
that
I
really
want
to
highlight
the
fact
that
we
should
be
trying
to
keep
Evanston
dollars
in
Evanston
and
I
want
to
really
highlight
the
fact
that
hip
circle,
empowerment
center
is
Evanston.
It's
more
than
just
a
fitness
studio.
AB
I
think
they've
had
a
long
eight-year
history
of
championing
in
Evanston
and
we
are
utilizing
Evanston.
We
have
the
support
of
the
Evanston
Community
Foundation,
we're
working
with
many
local
service
providers
for
the
design
and
construction
of
the
build-out,
and
only
taking
bids
from
Evanston
companies
and
employed
in
business
people
in
additionally,
like
I,
said
they're
more
than
just
a
fitness
to
you
hip
circle,
mentors
Evanston
teens
through
the
mayor's
Summer
Youth
Employment
Program.
They
also
provide
teacher
training
and
scholarships
for
jobs
for
administration.
We
have
a
work-study
program.
AB
Did
you
know
if
you
work
just
three
hours
a
week
you
get
a
full
fitness
membership
for
the
month.
That's
something
I
really
encourage
all
of
you
to
check
out
a
class
or
even
attend
a
workshop.
You
know
this
weekend.
We've
got
ditched
the
overwhelmed
for
many
of
you
Alderman
Braithwaite.
Maybe
Claudia
can
come
other
than
that.
I
think
there's
additional
reasons
why
this
move
is
going
to
be
good
for
hip
circle
to
move
to
the
Howard
Street.
The
class
workshop
event.
AB
Schedule
really
brings
daytime
visitors
to
Howard
Street
for
something
beyond
just
food
and
drink.
Hip
circle
also
contributes
to
the
diversity
of
Howard
Street
businesses.
You
know
we
are
women
run
and
minority
run.
Hip
circle
also
adds
a
vibrant
and
diverse
business
use
to
the
Howard
Street
area,
contributing
to
its
revitalization,
and
on
top
of
that
hip
circle
really
provides
and
offers
affordable,
dance,
fitness,
health
and
wellness
services
to
all
ages
in
an
underserved
neighborhood,
there's
even
more
reasons
why
I
think
hip
circle
really
adds
to
the
Evanston
economic
development.
AB
We
bring
Chicago
residents
into
Evanston
spending
more
money
in
Evanston.
Hip
circle
has
community
connections
to
the
main
dempster
Mile
and
the
black
business
consortium,
and,
on
top
of
that
hip
circle
provides
flexible
jobs,
opportunities
for
women,
and
this
move
also
puts
property
back
on
the
tax
rolls
and
generates
new
rental
income
for
Evanston
I.
Thank
you
for
your
time
and
your
consideration.
I
hope
that
you
will
continue
to
support
hip
circle
here
in
Evanston,
Thank.
A
F
Sure
staff
recommend
city
council
adoption
of
resolution,
23
r18
authorizing
a
five-year
loan
of
$25,000
to
hit
circle
empowerment
center
for
tenant
improvements
at
7:27,
Howard
Street,
the
Howard
Ridge
tax
increment
funding
financing
fund
is
the
recommended
source
of
funding
for
the
estimated
forty
nine
thousand
eight
hundred
eighty
nine
dollar
construction
budget.
The
city
as
landlord
is
providing
a
tenant
improvement
allowance
of
twenty
five
thousand.
F
D
AC
Something
else
I
wanted
to
point
out
on
the
on
the
loan
documents
is
miss.
Goodwin
has
requested
that
the
city
dropped
the
requirement
for
a
personal
guarantee.
The
staff
feels
that
the
the
build-out
itself
is
is
essentially
the
security.
If,
if
the
business
were
to
default
on
the
loan,
we
have
a
space
as
completely
filled
out
and
ready
to
go
for
the
next
tenant.
AC
Can
only
speak
to
the
to
the
immediate
term,
I
I
would
have
to
yield
to
the
eighth
word
alderman
on
long
term
plans.
At
this
point,
we've
never
been
a
number
of
plans
for
that,
for
that
particular
property.
Okay,
this
is
a
good
opportunity.
We've
got
it
set
up
to
be
kind
of
shorter
term
loan.
So,
in
the
event
that
there
is
something
else
that
changes.
If
we
need
to
sell
it,
we
can
make
that
move.
Okay.
Thank
you.
You're
welcome,
Morini.
B
It's
been
empty.
Seven
eight
years
is
pretty
reasonable,
given
the
condition
it's
in
and
$15
plus
I
mean
we're
going
to
make
her
vanilla
box,
which
is
a
pretty
good
deal
for
her,
but
she's
also
getting
a
loan
which
she
is
going
to
pay
back
in
total
at
3%
interest,
which
is
not
bad
either
for
us
or
for
her.
So
I
think
it's
you
know
again
when
and
and
I
I
did
see
the
letter
from
a
constituent
of
yours,
suggesting
that
we
use
the
Howard
Street
TIF
money
to
give
to
the.
Why
that's
illegal!
B
You
cannot
give
Howard
streets
of
money
to
the.
Why
or
delete
word
Jourdain.
That
is
totally
illegal.
The
only
place
you
can
use
and
I
I'm
gonna
say
this
until
there's
not
a
drop
of
Howard
Street
TIF
money
left.
You
cannot
use
the
Howard
bridge
TIF
money
anyplace,
but
on
Howard
Street
between
Ridge
and
the
CTA
tracks,
from
the
middle
of
the
alley
behind
Howard
Street
to
the
curb
you
can't
use
it
anyplace
else
you
gotta
use
it
there,
that's
why
we
created
it
and
that's
where
we're
using
it.
B
We
bought
this
building
with
TIF
money
for
something
like
three
hundred
thousand
dollars
and
it's
she
Malika's
only
using
half
of
it
and
hopefully
she'll
be
so
attractive.
Somebody
will
wanna
rent
the
other
half
or
she'll
get
so
you
know
important
to
expand
by
the
whole
building.
I,
don't
know,
we've
been
pretty
lucky
on
Howard
Street
and
maybe
we'll
get
lucky
with
her
to
himself,
but
hopefully
somebody
will
buy
the
building.
A
AC
Chairman
Fleming,
we
do.
We
have
some
security
in
this
case
the
fact
that
miss
mr.
Goodwin
is
operating
as
a
non-profit,
it's
kind
of
challenging
to
assign
all
of
the
security
to
her
personally,
it's
kind
of
a
different
business
structure,
so
we
felt
that
the
way
that
the
bill
that
is
occurring,
even
even
the
portion
that
she's
paying
for,
is
pretty
much
standard
billed
out.
AC
If
the
50000
estimate
is
pretty
much,
what
would
it
cost
to
build
that
space,
our
it's
in
pretty
raw
form,
so
we
feel
that
the
security
itself
would
be
the
space
I
mean,
there's
really
nothing
that
you
could
take
from
the
space.
It's
all
built
in
it's
electrical.
It's
plumbing
fixtures
things
like
that.
So
the
short
answer
we
typically
always
have
security,
but
for
reasons
I
just
explained,
I
think
this
could
be
a
case
where
we
make
that
an
exception.
AC
A
This
is
the
city.
Sorry,
since
the
staff
is
recommending
city
council
adopt
this

the
city

agreement

property
at
727,
Howard
Street
with

circle,
empowerment

This
is
for
action.

A

I
am
just
asking
for

little
personal

Madam

and
I'm
I'm
sure
I
got
a
notice
about
this
hearing
about
the
target
in
the
shopping
center,
but
I
must
have
been
out
to
lunch
because
I
do
not
remember
getting
a
notice
of
this
and
it's
a
big
deal.
That
target
is
getting
a
liquor
license
in
the
shopping

and
I'm.
Just
wondering.

Bring

I
was
actually

As
at
this
meeting
it
was
during
the
Liquor
Control
Commissioner
meeting.
This
has
been
an
ongoing
issue.
Well
target
was
being
presented.
There
was
also

to
make
sure
we
all.
There
are
some

that
are
already
within

No.
B
I
Chair
members
of
the
committee,
based
on
the
council's
direction
from
a
couple
of
years
ago,
we
actually
put
on
the
Liquor
Commission
agenda
when
the
aldermen
are
notified.
So
for
the
agenda
of
April
4th
2018,
it
says
that
they
notice
was
sent
to
the
applicant
and
alderman
Rainey
on
February
27th
2018.
I
I
I
G
I
I'm,
chair,
alderman
Braithwaite.
What
has
occurred
in
the
past
is
that
it
from
time
to
time
a
liquor
license
comes
before
the
Liquor
Control
Board
and
the
alderman
is
unaware
because
of
the
paths
that
liquor
licenses
take.
Sometimes
the
alderman
is
very
much
involved.
Sometimes
they
just
come
to
the
counter
and
put
forward
in
applications.
So
well,
we
instituted
several
years
back.
I
Was
this
process
to
make
sure
that,
as
part
of
the
agenda
packet
for
the
Liquor
Control
Board,
the
the
the
notation
of
the
note
is
for
the
so
that
when
the
Liquor
Control
Board
meets,
they
know
that
each
of
the
aldermen
have
been
notified
because
of
the
various
paths
the
liquor
licenses
take
to
get
there.
It's.
