Great Town Hall with Shahana Hanif and the entire District 39 team. Our community greatly appreciated your participation. These forums help residents be more informed and help us be more proactive in advocating for our neighbors. The questions were diverse and substantial, and your answers were detailed. We will keep pressing on some very important issues raised during the evening. Also very excited about your office’s willingness to support a reasonable proposal to make our neighborhood safer for pedestrians, cyclists, and car drivers. For neighbors who sent us questions and were not able to come, please email us to request a full transcript of the #TownHall at SjpCommunityAssociation@gmail.com. A big thanks to #stjohnschurch and Father Ben DeHart for hosting us for now 10-plus years.
