Alderman Fiske congratulated everyone who had participated in efforts to encourage the CTA to maintain its Evanston service . He said we cannot do enough to encourage that participation. He urged everyone watching to turn out for the hearing at Loyola University, Wednesday, October 30, and if possible,.to come to the hearing at Northeastern University on Tuesday evening. Alderman Newman reported that he had attended the first CTA hearing at the State of Illinois building and was on a panel with State Representative Jan Schakowsky and five Chicago aldermen. He described the crowd as hostile and impatient. At that meeting he observed that the CTA staff seemed to be quite friendly with Chicago aldermen and expressed concern that political clout might effect how the cuts are made. We're at a disadvantage compared to the City of Chicago because of the political nature of the board. He also reported that there were many CTA board members at the State of Illinois hearing who were not here last Wednesday night. He urged Council to take advantage of any personal relationships aldermen may have with board members. He said that most testimony at the hearing was similar to that taken here in Evanston and discussed the impact cutbacks would have on hospitals, businesses and the ability of people to get to work. He said that someone in the audience had questioned him about his button and wondered if he was supporting the CTA until he read the button carefully. He urged everyone to keep up the pressure at the CTA hearing Wednesday night. Alderman Newman reported that he had held a meeting recently with residents of Sherman Gardens, at which three City staff were present. Residents complained about a sign at Yesterdays and three days later it disappeared. Sherman Gardens residents, many of them senior citizens, expressed concern about the bike riding problem as well as the delivery of Police services in Evanston. October 28, 1991 Alderman Newman said he hoped there would be no proposals in the upcoming budget for any reductions in uniformed Police officers. He said that it is an overwhelming responsibility to be.a Police Chief in 1991, with the demands for services increasing - not only related to criminal activity, but bicycles, cars blocking alleys and patrol of the White Hen Parking Lot. He said he will oppose any cuts to Police staffing that are proposed in the new budget. Alderman Drummer welcomed Mr. Monro's class to the meeting and noted that he had addressed the class in the past week. Alderman Davis announced that the Economic Development Committee meeting would be at 7:00 P.M. not at 7:45 P.M. as stated on the yellow agenda. Alderman Brady asked that the minutes reflect the Council's gratefulness and appreciation to the Housing Department, and in particular to Bill Povalla, for his preparation of the Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS). She said that she knew that other aldermen members of the Housing Commission joined her in this commendation. She said that the document took months of work to prepare and that, finally, we have a semi -accurate (because not all of the 1990 census data is in) portrayal of our housing needs and strategy. Alderman Brady expressed concern that the October 30 special meeting of the Council to discuss Council reorganization had been cancelled due to the CTA hearing. She asked City Manager Anderson to synthesize the ideas and recommendations that emanated from the three small -group committee meetings in early October, and requested that he bring them to the November 5 Rules Committee meeting. She further requested that discussion of those ideas be made a special order of business at the November 11 Council meeting. She suggested that Council take the first half hour of the November 11 meeting to schedule future discussions. It was the consensus of the Council to make it a Special Order of Business. Alderman Esch extended congratulations to Fleetwood-Jourdain Community Theatre on their new brochure, which was produced courtesy of Northwestern University. She said that she has had tickets to the Theatre there for many years and encouraged everyone to attend performances. Alderman Kent said that he appreciated seeing people involved in their community, and that everytime someone takes a stand to make it a better community, all should know about it. He reported that last Saturday, in the pouring rain, Ida Fitzgerald had organized a "Walk for Jesus" consisting of members of various congregations. About 40 people, at least half of them senior citizens, walked through the 5th Ward that day. He said they deserved to know that it was deeply appreciated and that's the kind of commitment we need to see all over Evanston. Alderman Warshaw said that for all those who didn't notice and who complain that the City taxes and never gives back, she wanted them to note that Council did pass a string of tax abatement resolutions this evening. The City does try to conserve money and tries to give it back to the citizens wherever possible. She said that she also wanted to add to Alderman Brady's commendation to staff for putting together the CHAS proposal. She said the document was excellent and comprehensive, especially considering the short time in which staff had to put it together. Alderman Warshaw congratulated the Reba Church on their recent Craft Fair which she termed a success, especially considering the weather last week -end. She said it was held in their new building, which is a lovely facility for this type of event. Alderman Warshaw also thanked members of the League of Women Voters, who had attended standing committee meetings that eveni.ng, for their continued interest and dedication to the City.
