Non-Routine Council Matters Call for Hearing


Call for hearing(s) on status of reopening Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) 63rd and Racine Green Line station

Auto-generated summary

The 63rd and Racine Green Line Station's 30-year closure has impeded Englewood's progress. Go Green on Racine, backed by Inner-City Muslim Action Network, Teamwork Englewood, E.G Woode, R.A.G.E., and 16th Ward voters, advocates for reopening. CTA's Dorval Carter supports the cause, and a $2,000,000 federal grant funds a feasibility study. The article, by Alderman Stephanie D. Coleman, calls for a hearing on the station's reopening and transit inequality.
