Public Hearing Notice: Redistricting Hearings Ward Remap

34th Place Neighbors:

I just wanted to inform you about a meeting that is very important to keeping the 11th Ward intact.  The City of Chicago is in the process of redistricting the Wards based on the 2010 census.  The 11th Ward could be adversely affected by some of the maps that are being considered.  We need our voices to be heard in supporting the TaxpayersProtection Map (aka the Latino Caucus Map), which will keep the 11th Ward as it is.

If you are available on Thursday, January 12th from 6:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m., please attend the public hearing and support keeping the 11th ward as one.  You can sign up to speak, write something that will be submitted into the meeting minutes or merely show your support by being present.  There will be many people there speaking up for their Wards, so we have to let the Committee know that we are united & strong.

Alternatively, there is another date and location highlighted in the Notice of Public Hearings posted above.

 

You can view the interactive maps of the various proposals via the enclosed link:  Interactive Maps.

Here's the info on the meeting.
