Goyo's quote reads: "La Semilla reflects the community's response to our environmental challenges. It's going to be public infrastructure for active mobility, linking to light rail, shareable micromobility, and charging stations for EVs." -Goyo Ortiz, Community Development Choreographer at Casa Familiar

A Chicago Mobility Collaborative meeting at Douglass Park discussed current transportation projects in North Lawndale. The quarterly events, held at locations around the city, give residents a chance to weigh on CDOT's sustainable transportation efforts.

Psst Mayor Johnson... Now that you need another nominee for the RTA board, why not consider Rochelle Jackson of North Lawndale Community Coordinating Council, a longtime transit advocate who helped win back Ogden Avenue bus service?

Yesterday, City Council’s Committee on Police & Fire held a meeting, part of which discussed an order regarding ShotSpotter. If you’re familiar with how our City’s public discussions on this tech tend to go, you can guess it wasn’t the most clear or helpful discussion.
Equiticity retweeted
(THREAD) It’s been about a month since the CCPSA meeting on ShotSpotter. It was very intense and February was a busy month (LOL) so we took a min to gather our thoughts and reflections, but we’re feeling ready to share!

“The answer…to fixing past failed policies, is to listen to local leaders. Community-led solutions are necessary to fight climate change and improve the lives of real people…”
Thanks @streetsblogchi — was a treat to co-author this @NRDC “Act Locally” resource with @jbisready
New NRDC study urges states to get creative with their finances, and invest in walking, biking, and transit. "Act Locally" is a guide that can help local communities find funding to build a more equitable transportation system and fight climate change.
