  • Mock Up of Immigration Resources | Chicago's 49th Ward

    Resources for Immigrants All Chicago residents, regardless of immigration status, can use City services. Every person, no matter their immigration statues, has legal rights in the United States - this includes undocumented immigrants. It's important that undocumented immigrants know their rights if ICE comes to their door. Click the tabs below for various informational materials to help you understand your rights in these situations. Know Your Rights Welcoming City Mental Health Know Your Rights Fighting Against Federal Occupation Resources from the Office of Immigration, Migrant, and Refugee Rights Download English Guide Haitian Creole Descargar la guía en español Ukranian Descargar guía en francés Mandarin ICIRR Hotline If you see or experience ICE activity, call the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant & Refugee Rights' (ICIRR) 24-Hour Family Support Hotline: 1-855-HELP-MY-FAMILY (1-855-435-7693). For more information on ICIRR's hotline go to icirr.org/fsn . Here’s how you can stay informed and help others: Understand ICE Tactics: ICE often carries out operations early in the morning, targeting people as they leave for work or take their children to school. They may also set up traffic stops, visit workplaces, or go to people’s homes. Even if someone is not the primary target, ICE has historically detained others who are present. Know Your Rights: Every person in the U.S. has constitutional protections, and knowing how to exercise those rights can make all the difference in a moment of interaction with ICE: You do NOT have to open your door unless ICE presents a warrant signed by a judge. ICE forms are not signed by judges and do not grant permission to enter your home. If you come into contact with ICE officers, stay calm, do not run, and do not provide information about your immigration status. Do not sign anything you don’t understand, and do not provide false documents. If you are questioned, you can calmly state that you wish to speak with a lawyer before proceeding. Create a Safety Plan: Planning ahead is essential. Make sure your family has emergency contact information, and ensure schools or daycare centers have updated contact details for emergencies Chicago Public Schools: Get Prepared Guide WBEZ put together a helpful article on what Chicago Public Schools, parents or guardians, and students can do, including how to talk to children about the chances of Federal Immigration Officers in Chicago. A reminder that CPS does not allow immigration agents into schools without a warrant. Families can access resources regarding Know Your Rights workshops, legal services, and other information related to the new presidential administration here. Protect RP Protect RP, a volunteer-led mutual aid organization that started during the first Trump administration, is back and helping to keep our neighbors safe and informed. They will be helping to distribute Know Your Rights (KYR) information throughout our ward. If you'd like to get involved with them, please complete this Google form .

  • Glenwood Commuter Safety (Archive) | Chicago's 49th Ward

    Glenwood Commuter Safety Glenwood Commuter Safety Feedback Results On March 9, the 49th Ward office hosted a town hall meeting where we discussed a proposal to modify the traffic to flow one-way northbound on Glenwood between Pratt and Devon. A recording of that meeting is available to view by clicking here . Since Alderwoman Hadden first entered office in 2019, residents have consistently reached out with concerns about this particular stretch of Glenwood. The street is nestled in a dense area with many pedestrians. The heavy foot traffic combined with the existing bike lanes and two-way vehicular traffic on a narrow residential street has created unsafe conditions. In 2021, our office convened a community meeting with neighbors and residents to discuss the issue further. The objective of the meeting was to take a broader look at this stretch of Glenwood and see how we can improve safety for all users (motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians). After soliciting feedback from area residents, CDOT conducted a traffic study for this stretch of Glenwood. Upon the conclusion of that study, they recommended modifying traffic to flow one-way northbound on Glenwood between Pratt and Devon. The northbound direction was determined by conversations with first responders who indicated that they needed it to remain northbound for their vehicles in the event of an emergency. Additionally, the proposal calls to keep the existing bike lanes, which connect to a greenway both north and south of this stretch. The proposal calls for no elimination of parking. A copy of the traffic study is available to review by clicking here . After our community meeting, we asked commuters of all types to share their feedback and ideas on how to improve commuter safety along this stretch of Glenwood. For the open-ended questions, a plurality (48.9%) of respondents expressed they liked the proposal in its current form and didn't have additional feedback to provide. Of the 331 respondents, only 8% responded that the proposal shouldn't be pursued and that no changes should be made to adjacent streets. 9% of respondents said they had no feedback to offer or didn't respond at all to the open-ended questions. Others made recommendations to enhance pedestrian and bike safety, with suggestions ranging from raised crosswalks to closing streets to vehicular traffic. Respondents also made suggestions on what traffic safety measures and signage can be installed on adjacent blocks to improve safety and help motorists navigate the area.

  • Shoreline Study | Chicago's 49th Ward

    Proyecto de estabilización de la costa The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has launched an interactive Crowdsource map for the public to leave comments on its Chicago Shoreline Study . The map is available on the Army Corps' website by clicking here . It is recommended that you use Google Chrome to open the site. On the map, users can pinpoint a specific location along the shoreline and submit a comment for consideration. Comments must be submitted by April 30, 2023. The USACE will be preparing a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) document on the impacts associated with a Coastal Storm Risk Management study in the City of Chicago. The City of Chicago and the Chicago Park District partnered with the Corps to study ongoing shoreline erosion and coastal storm due to variable lake levels and storm-driven waves that impact our shoreline. The proposed study area includes Chicago's entire shoreline, from our border with Evanston to our border with Indiana. As a part of the study, the Army Corps will explore various measures that could be implemented along our shoreline to reduce coastal storm risks. These measures include the following: Structural (e.g., breakwaters, seawalls, revetments, and groins) Natural and Nature-based features (e.g., beach nourishment, submerged reefs, vegetation, ecologically enhanced structures) Non-structural (e.g., floodproofing, flood warning plans, emergency evacuation plans) As part of the NEPA scoping process, the Army Corps is seeking comments or concerns stakeholders have about potential impacts from the various measures that could be implemented. This could include impacts to various habitats, threatened and endangered species, or cultural, historical, and social resources. Our office has submitted preliminary feedback to the Army Corps for this critical study and has called for the following as they embark on this process: Commit to a robust community engagement process to allow Chicagoans to provide insight and feedback The 49th Ward was excluded from the 1994 Chicago Shoreline Storm Damage Reduction Project, which provided infrastructure and protections for just 8 miles of the City’s shoreline. In Rogers Park, private properties are located directly adjacent to the lake, which means they feel the impact of high lake levels and wave action on a much more intimate basis than other parts of the city that have public land barriers and other infrastructure (such as sea walls) to absorb or deflect wave impact. Residents are owed the opportunity to share their personal experiences and ideas to help inform the future of the shoreline. Restore beach access to Juneway, Rogers, and Howard beaches and repurpose emergency revetments as breakwaters As Lake Michigan reached historically high levels in 2019, the Department of Transportation was able to secure emergency funding from FEMA to install armor rock revetments at Juneway, Howard, and Rogers beaches. The revetments were critical in curtailing further erosion of public property and keeping park property safe. However, the installation of revetments restricted access to what had previously been beaches. Rogers Park has a unique history of being the last affordable neighborhood on the north side with access to the lakefront. Roger Park residents have enjoyed this access for generations, offering a more quiet opportunity to enjoy our greatest natural asset. As USACE studies potential solutions for Chicago’s shoreline, I ask that you look at restoring beach access and repurposing the armor rocks to act as breakwaters. Implement sustainable native, deep-rooted vegetation on the lakefront to combat erosion With a unique opportunity to shape the future of Chicago’s shoreline, we would like the Army Corps to explore sustainable options to combat erosion, such as planting marram grass or other native deep-rooted plants that have a track record of withstanding wave impact and mitigating the impacts of erosion. In the 49th Ward, a group of volunteers acts as stewards to the Loyola Park Sand Dunes. The natural vegetation abutting the lake proved resilient at the peak of Lake Michigan’s lake levels, with less damage at Loyola Park than at other parks to its north. In addition to providing a natural barrier to wave action, the plants help the ecosystem along Lake Michigan, allowing natural wildlife and insects to thrive. Individuals, organizations, and groups may also submit written comments to Ms. Samantha Belcik. Comments and questions will be accepted through the end of March and can be directed via email to Ms. Belcik at ChicagoShoreline@usace.army.mil . More on the Shoreline Study and its current status is available on the USACE website her e .

  • Metra Renovation | Chicago's 49th Ward

    Metra Station Renovation Project January 2025 Renovation Updates Our office received news from the Office of Senator Dick Durbin that an additional $115 million in federal funding was secured for infrastructure projects across the state, including $23.6M for the Rogers Park Metra Station renovation. During our last meeting in 2024, Metra announced that work could begin on the renovations as early as 2025 on the new station. During our latest meeting, however, they announced that the project has experienced delays due to funding snags at the federal level. In light of this award, our office has reached out to Metra representatives to ask for an updated timeline and if the $23.6M award can bridge the remaining gap in construction costs. At this point in time, the project's schedule has not changed and it is not yet known if this award will cover construction costs. However, we will continue to work closely with our Metra partners on the timeline of construction and advocate for as soon of a completion time as possible. Metra serves as an economic engine for the entire Chicagoland region, and this renovation will serve as a catalyst for economic development in Rogers Park. To view Metra's presentation, click here .
