* Community Redevelopment Meeting

On Wednesday, March 29th at 7pm, the community will review plans to re-develop the lot call 1534 West Greenleaf Avenue. Currently on this lot sits 12 very tacky, but functional, lower income apartment units. The presenter Joe Pervan will show and discuss with us his plans to put an 8 unit condo development in it's place.

What: Redevelopment Meeting

Where: St. Pauls by the Lake, 7100 North Ashland Avenue

When: 7pm, or not so sharp. The Alderman never arrives on time.

Why: Alderman's Infor-mercial

The very definition of an Aldermanic info-mercial: a paid, after hours promotional appearance by the guy whose day job is writing the laws of our city, calling a meeting to explain to his day clients that "there's nothing we can do" about his evening client.

Are you tired of going to meetings to have your elected legislator explain to you how powerless you are?

Demand downzoning for Rogers Park. Bring developers to the table. Put residents in the drivers seat. Demand a seat at the table. Stop selling our neighborhood.
