Hi all this is Morley reporting to you live from the Dvorak Field House on the hotly debated Pilsen Tif expansion. For @CHIdocumenters Image For context: Neighbors are divided, with some (including the social justice org Pilsen Alliance) citing the TIF's checkered past to argue that the TIF expansion will be used by wealthy/powerful to gentrify the neighborhood. see: blockclubchicago.org/2024/08/08/a-p…

Hello all, Morley here, I was live tweeting the 1st Police District Council meeting for @CHIdocumenters but Twitter deleted my entire thread. I can't seem to recover it, sorry. I'll do my best to summarize the very brief meeting. It's held in the historic Glessner house. Image Top line: The Police District Councils are elected bodies meant to increase community accountability over the police and transparency. There are 22 District councils, each with 3 elected members.
