Aldermen discuss parking meter deal

by CYRYL JAKUBOWSKI Northwest Side aldermen split their votes on the deal that changed the citys lease agreement with Chicago Parking Meters, with some calling it an improvement over the previous deal and others criticizing it. The City Council voted 39-11 to approve the agreement on June 5, with Aldermen John Arena (45th), Rey Colon (35th), Ameya Pawar (47th) and Debra Silverstein (50th) voting against it. The agreement will make parking at meters in most parts of the city free on Sundays but will extend metered parking hours by at least 1 hour throughout the city. The deal is expected to save the city up to $1 billion through the 71 years remaining on the lease by changing the way that data for calculating compensation for adding or closing parking spots, changing periods of stay, hours of operation or parking rates is interpreted, according to Mayor Rahm Emanuel. Chicago Parking Meters had asked the city to pay $49 million for meters that were out of service due to road construction or other reasons over a 2-year period ending March 31, while the city maintained that the amount owed was $8.9 million. The council voted in December of 2008 to lease the citys parking meters to the company for $1.15 billion through Feb. 29, 2084, after former mayor Richard Daley gave aldermen just three days to review the terms of the agreement. Since then parking rates have increased sharply and hours have increased. These changes will help provide some much needed relief from this horrible deal, and I commend the City Council for supporting it, Emanuel said in a statement. ITS LIKE THE mayor had said, its not the best situation in the world to be in, but I think the settlement is more advantageous to the city because it addresses some of the costs that we would have to pay, Alderman Timothy Cullerton (38th) said. Its a settlement agreement, and both parties gained and lost something. It seems we gained a lot more than the parking meter company. Alderman Margaret Laurino (39th) said that she was impressed with the amount of debate and the process that went into the renegotiated agreement. Its a lot less onerous than before, Laurino said. It was a bad deal, but we tried to make it a little bit better. There were ample deliberations, and we talked in detail about this issue. Laurino said that she had talked with chambers of commerce in her ward about the benefits of free parking on Sundays. She said that she would consider eliminating that option if it affects businesses in a negative way. Aldermen have the option of removing free parking on Sundays if they think it will affect the businesses in their wards. There is some positive in it, Laurino said. It gives you the option of having free parking on Sundays, and I think that is good, and I like the ability to pay by phone now. Laurino said that the contract was reviewed to determine if there was any way to get out of the deal. Unfortunately there isnt, she said. I can say that we took a bad deal and we made it slightly better. Arena said in a statement that there are too many aspects of the deal that are not good for the city. We revisited this boondoggle in large part because Chicago Parking Meters LLC overplayed their hand and underestimated our mayor, Arena said. CPM essentially sent us a cooked-up invoice, claiming that their figures, which we could not see, showed we owed them tens of millions of dollars for closing off parking spaces during festivals, road construction and other basic municipal activities. They are like a vendor contracted to perform work for one price who then sends a bill for ten times that amount, Arena said. As anyone would, the mayor sent that bill back and said that we wouldnt pay it. Good for him, and good for the city he serves. However, Arena said that the savings that Emanuel talks about are not actual savings because the payments were never due. Getting those provisions of this one-sided contract fixed, and the city in a better position to refute bogus claims for compensation, is where this revised contract shines, he said. Had that been the end, I might have voted for it. Efforts to separate that from the rest of the deal failed in committee.

Arrests made after assist by residents

by BRIAN NADIG 16th (Jefferson Park) District police are crediting two Norwood Park residents for taking actions that led to the arrests of three teenagers who allegedly stole a purse. It was reported at the May 21 meeting of the 16th District Advisory Committee that a woman confronted three boys, age 13 to 15, while they were going through a purse in the 5900 block of West Hobart Avenue. The teens dropped the purse and fled, according to police. After the woman returned the purse to the victims father, he later detained one of the suspects for police after he saw them near Niagara and Avondale avenues. One of the suspects allegedly took the purse from a car on April 14 while it was parked in the 5600 block of North New Hampshire Avenue, police said. Also at the meeting, captain Hootan Bahmandeji said that crime is down compared to last year. Our number one problem in the district is burglary and theft, Bahmandeji said. Between Jan. 1 and June 2, 922 serious crimes, including robberies, burglaries and felony thefts, were reported in the district, compared to 954 during the same period last year. Despite the decrease, the number of stolen motor vehicles increased from 245 last year to 259 this year and the number of burglaries increased from 314 to 337. It also was reported that a suspected gang member was arrested on April 15 while he was standing with a gun at a bus stop in the 7500 block of West Addison Street, according to police. The suspect, who was
Historical society hears update on schoolhouse

by BRIAN NADIG New findings about the 160-yearold schoolhouse building at 5900 N. Leader Ave. and a presentation by the American Indian Center highlighted the June 11 meeting of the Edgebrook Historical Society. Its two buildings joined together, society board member Barbara Mendelsohn said of the former Forest Glen School, which at one time was a branch of Irving Park School. Now we have the task of finding out what two buildings. The society is raising funds to preserve the building, which is owned by the Cook County Forest Preserve District. In recent years the building was used as a caretakers home for the districts Caldwell Golf Course, but it has been vacant since 2004. An architect that the group hired examined the schoolhouse in April after its siding was removed and determined that the building consists of two structures, Mendelsohn said. The architect feels that the larger of the two structures could have been built in the 1850s and that the smaller section of the schoolhouse may be older, she said. Mendelsohn said that the preservation project has revealed a lot
THE RESTORED fountain statues titled Young Boys Rising from the Sea were unveiled in the Memorial Garden at Lane Tech High School on June 7. The 25,000-square-foot garden in the inner courtyard of the building is dedicated to graduates of the school who have lost their lives in the armed services. The sculptures were created in 1935 by nationally known sculptor Charles Umlauf, who in addition to sculptures in Chicago has works that are in the collections of the Smithsonian Institution and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New Your City. Umlauf died in 1994 at the age of 83. The school raised more than $62,000 through grants and donations for the work by conservator Andrez Dajowski.

Cosmic sky show set by Adler Planetarium

The Adler Planetarium, 1300 S. Lake Shore Drive, has opened its Cosmic Wonder sky show. The show, which will run through April 1, 2014, is presented as a live show. It tells the story of how humanity has pieced together an understanding of the cosmos. Audiences are invited to ask questions and help scientists unlock mysteries of the unknown. The show begins with a naked eye tour of the night sky. From a true dark night sky in Yosemite Valley, audiences travel back in time 300 years to Jaipur, India, to explore an ancient observatory built by Maharaja Jai Singh, who was inspired by the wonders of the night sky. Telescopes have evolved into modern devices such as the Hubble Space Telescope and space exploration has advanced dramatically. The drive to observe and discover continues to push advancements in technology that will help solve existing mysteries and reveal new ones. The show utilizes special effects in the Grainger Sky Theater that allow visitors to witness the beauty of the Crab Nebula as it descends, zoom into the constellation Orion the Hunter and see a hotbed of active star formation, and zero in on a small patch of the night sky while surrounded by the Hubble Extreme Deep Field image containing more than 5,500 galaxies. Admission to the show is included in the price of a Premium pass, which costs $28 per adult and $22 per child. Discounts are available for Chicago residents.

Emanuel at mid-term is more Daley than Byrne

by RUSS STEWART According to well placed Chicago Democratic sources, Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle is not averse to running for mayor in 2015, but she wont be a kamikaze. In other words, she will run against Rahm Emanuel if she believes she can win. She will not run because certain enemies of Emanuel, such as the Chicago Teachers Union and the Fraternal Order of Police, want to punish the mayor and need a stalking horse to vent their anger. So heres the question: Is Emanuel beatable? He got 55.8 percent of the vote to win his first term in 2011. Which begets further questions: Is Rahm a Dick or a Jane? A Rich or a Mike? A tranquilizer or a polarizer? A keeper or a goner? At mid-term, Emanuel must be judged by his accomplishments and compared to his predecessors. Is he a one-term stumblebum like Jane and Mike mayors Jane Byrne (1979 to 1983) and Mike Bilandic (1976 to 1979) or is he a long-termer like Dick and Rich Dick Daley (1955 to 1976) and Rich Daley (1989 to 2011)? Emanuel has professed that he doesnt intend to be mayor for life. That was the aspiration of every one of his predecessors. There is no job more desirable and powerful in Illinois . . . certainly not the governorship, where he would have to do daily battle with Illinois House Speaker Mike Madigan. SO, AT AGE 53, does Emanuel want to maintain his frenetic pace for two more terms? Thats another 10 years. If good buddy Hillary Clinton doesnt run for president in 2016, Emanuel might. He has nothing to lose, and he would only elevate his national and local stature. In a field of second-tier candidates, Emanuel could perform well, and he certainly could win the Florida primary, with its huge Jewish vote. He could raise megabucks from Hollywood and Jewish contributors, but he would have zero appeal in farm states and the South. Is America ready for another Chicagoan, one who is indelibly tied to Barack Obama, as president? If Clinton does run, Emanuel could be her pick for vice president, but Clintons path to the White House in 2016 means distancing herself from Obama, and a ClintonEmanuel ticket would not accomplish that objective. So Emanuels future is an enigma. This much is clear: Emanuel is not loath to make tough decisions. He has antagonized significant portions of the Chicago Democratic base, namely, public sector unions, teachers and police. He has been an in-your-face, take-charge, mediamanipulating, controversy-precipitating mayor. Playing it safe, which was the hallmark of the Rich Daley regime, is nowhere to be found. By being tough on crime, supporting charter schools, defying the unions contractual work rules, chopping the city budget, palming off city employees to Obamacare, redoing the parking meter deal to allegedly save $1 billion over the next 71 years, Emanuel has established himself as a sage and gutsy mayor, employing a combination of Bloombergism 44 of 50 wards in Chicago, including the Northwest Side 41st, 40th, 39th, 47th and 50th wards, got 301,199 votes citywide to 70,015 for Hynes, and swept the Lakefront. In short, being a liberal is no impediment to victory, which is why Emanuel can support gay marriage and gun control with impunity. Liberals comprise about 63 percent of Democratic voters in Chicago and about 24 percent of all voters. JUST FOR THE record, is there a conservative base in Chicago? Again, the 2004 Senate primary is illustrative. In the Republican field, Jim Oberweis, the in-your-face, progun rights, anti-abortion, anti-gay rights, anti-immigration firebrand, faced seven opponents. He got 6,011 votes in Chicago, and the Republican primary turnout was 20,180, so the conservative base is about 30 percent of Republican voters and 0.4 percent of all voters. There are enough nonliberals so that Emanuel, like Daley, can be fiscally conservative, pare the budget, defy the unions, and suffer no consequences. Incompetence, stupidity and scandals. Chicago was known as The City That Works, but when the citys murder rate increases, the Police Department and mayor take the blame. There were 510 murders in 2012, up 18 percent over 2011 after falling steadily for 20 years, the bulk of which were gang-related shootings. Police superintendent Gerry McCarthys response was to flood high-crime areas with officers, and murders were back down 33 percent during the first five months of the year and police overtime was up by more than $10 million. Emanuel has to keep it down. Under Daley, the Hired Truck scandal, coupled with the jobs-forprecinct-work revelations of the Hispanic Democratic Organization, got no traction. So what? Chicagoans expect such chicanery in government. As long as the mayor is not venal or personally corrupt, Chicagoans are exuberantly tolerant, and underlings conduct can be excused as par for the course. Under Emanuel, the Happiness Quotient has remained positive. Under that theory, voters are affected by five issues: environment, safety, schools, economic vibrancy and pride. (1) Is the neighborhood livable? Are services provided? In Chicago, government is seen as an ally, not an enemy.

and Clintonite triangulation. Opposition derives from many sources: Partisanship. In the North Shore 10th U.S. House District, for example, there are hard-core Republican and Democratic votes of about 40 percent each. Thus, elections are fought for the undecided center, the 20 percent who are moderates. Not so in Chicago. John McCain got 13.7 percent of the Chicago vote in 2008, and Mitt Romney got 14.6 percent in 2012. Emanuel need only concern himself with solidifying 55 to 60 percent of the Democratic base, as he did in 2011. Ideology. How liberal is Chicago? The citys population is roughly 38 percent white, 33 percent black and 29 percent Hispanic. Back in the 1980s, during the heyday of Harold Washington, white residents on the Northwest and Southwest Sides were implacably anti-Washington while liberal Lakefronters loved the guy. Thats ancient history. The most recent emblematic contest was the 2004 U.S. Senate Democratic primary, which Obama won with 52.8 percent of the vote statewide, 64.4 percent in Cook County and 66.5 percent in Chicago. In a turnout of 452,855, 199,219 votes came from black-majority wards, and Obama got 195,669 of those votes. His opponent was state comptroller Dan Hynes, who was backed by the usually powerful 19th Ward Democrats and their ethnic allies. Obama won
Lincolnwood
OFFICERS recovered a stolen car at about 4:10 a.m. Tuesday, June 11, in the 3600 block of West Pratt Avenue, according to Lincolnwood police. A resident reported that he heard tires squealing outside his house and saw a car strike his car from behind, that two men got out of the car and left the scene in another vehicle, according to police. The cars steering column had been stripped, and the owner said that he had parked the car in the 3700 block of West Morse Avenue, police said. A MAN REPORTED that his van was burglarized between 7:20 p.m. and 7:45 p.m. Thursday, June 6, while it was parked at the Lincolnwood Town Center, 3333 W. Touhy Ave., according to Lincolnwood police. The man reported that when he returned to his van he discovered that the passenger-side door had been forced open and that an iPhone valued at $400, a Samsung Galaxy cell phone valued at $250 and a Makita cordless drill were missing, according to police.
Rezoning sought for Shop planning to open in final Lawrence Ave. site vacant Klee Plaza storefront
by BRIAN NADIG The rezoning of an 8,000square-foot parcel at 5712-18 W. Lawrence Ave. is being sought to allow the ground-floor storefronts of the two-story building on the site to be leased to businesses. Over the years the buildings tenants have included a dentist and a beauty salon, but new businesses cannot apply for a license under the RT4 zoning of the site, which is for multi-family residential construction. For unknown reasons the property was rezoned for residential use decades ago. The 51-year-old building contains 2,115 square feet of commercial space, and it has five apartments on the second floor. There are five parking spaces in the rear of the site. The City Council Committee on Zoning was scheduled to hold a hearing on the application at its meeting on Tuesday, June 11. The propertys owner is seeking to rezone the site to B2-1.5 Neighborhood Mixed-Use District, which allows a variety of stores and restaurants. Alderman John Arena (45th) was planning to support the application. Residents did not raise objections to the plan at a community meeting that Arena held in February, according to Arenas director of economic development Anthony Alfano. Also on the committees agenda is a proposal to rezone the site of a commercial building at 5732 W. Belmont Ave. from B1-1 Neighborhood Shopping District to B31 Community Shopping District to allow an existing business inside the building to offer psychic readings. A variation from the Zoning Board of Appeals also is required for the project, which calls for no change to the size and height of the building. by BRIAN NADIG The last remaining commercial space in the Klee Plaza, 4001-23 N. Milwaukee Ave., was leased recently to Jimmy Johns sandwich shop, marking a milestone for a Six Corners redevelopment project that began 15 years ago. Jimmy Johns is nationally known and sought after, Klee Plaza developer Marc Sussman said. They want Six Corners, and it says that Six Corners is a desirable shopping district. The fast-food chain, which is headquartered in Champaign, has more than 1,500 shops. Its Six Corners shop will measure about 1,800 square feet. The shop is expected to open in about 6 months. Sussman was part of a development group that purchased the triangular Klee Brothers Building, which faces both Milwaukee Avenue and Cicero Avenue, from the City of Chicago 8 years ago. By the late 1990s the five-story building, which was named after a clothing store, had lost its anchor tenants, and the city purchased the property in the hope of attracting new retailers to the site and converting the upper-floor offices to residential units. Several adjoining buildings to the north also were acquired by Chicago Klee Development LLC, allowing construction of five-story addition to the 82-year-old Klee Building. The first floor of the building has about 19,700 square feet of commercial space, and tenants include a martial arts center, a vitamin shop, a physical therapist and an eyeglass store, while the top four floors contain 64 condominium units. The city intended the Klee project, which was subsidized by tax increment financing funds, to be a catalyst for other redevelopment in the Six Corners district, but the downturn of the real estate market in 2008 slowed revitalization of the area After the Klee project was announced, two properties in the 4000 block of Milwaukee were rezoned to accommodate restaurants, which were never built due to problems with financing.

Chamber seeks to buy parcel

by BRIAN NADIG The Edison Park Chamber of Commerce is seeking to purchase a 6,200-square-foot parcel at 6739 N. Northwest Hwy. in order to guarantee that the property will continue to be used as a free community parking lot. The chamber has leased the property from the Chicago Board of Education since 1997, but last year the board decided to sell some of its surplus properties, which include the 25-space parking lot at the northeast corner of Oshkosh Avenue and Northwest Highway and several former grammar school buildings. The parking lot is next to Edison Park, 6755 N. Northwest Hwy., where the fieldhouse was once a school. Chamber executive director Melissa McIntyre-Panizzi said that the loss of the parking lot would hurt the commercial district, where several restaurants offer valet parking. The lot is constantly filled, McIntyre-Panizzi said. There are customers that dont want to valet their car. Many park patrons use the chamber lot because the park has no parking lot, McIntyre-Panizzi said. The chamber does not charge motorists to park in the lot, but it limits parking to 2 hours until 6 p.m., with overnight parking banned. Valet services are prohibited from using the Northwest Highway lot, but they are allowed to lease parking spaces between 5 p.m. and midnight

The district is co-sponsoring the ninth annual Fathers Day Bike Ride which will start at 10 a.m. Sunday, June 16, at Elis Cheesecake World, 6701 W. Forest Preserve Drive. About 200 people participated in the ride last year. For more information, call 773308-7015.

Arena said that aldermen heard testimony that ratifying the agreement legally entrenches this flawed and questionable deal. What we get for longer hours, free Sundays, is bad for our businesses, Arena said. Parking meters are not intended to generate revenue. They are intended to manage limited parking that is in high demand. Allowing someone to take up a parking spot in a business district from Saturday night to Monday morning will hurt our storefront businesses. Arena also criticized the option to
Sussman, who is the chairman of the Six Corners Economic Development Committee said that he sees a bright future for the area with the recent openings of the Filament Theater Ensemble and the National Veterans Arts Museum, both at 4041 N. Milwaukee Ave., and several planned restaurants, including a Chipotle Mexican Grill at 4653 W. Irving Park Road. The district recently got some bad news with the closing of the Portage Theater, 4050 N. Milwaukee Ave., but a zoning application for a new restaurant in the block is expected to be filed soon, and a dance studio and cultural center also is planned for the same block. Another site in the block was rezoned several months ago to accommodate a twostory restaurant with a rooftop patio. The Six Corners Association has been trying to bring this kind of development to the area and community for years, Sussman said. Weve been working to spread the word about the demographics (of the area).

ple to the right agency to solve problems. (2) Is the neighborhood safe? A police presence is mandatory, but many outlying wards fear the transfer of their cops to high-crime areas. (3) Education is a paramount concern, and the upgrade of Chicagos schools, begun under Daley, has not foundered under Emanuel. As always, its a matter of the ins versus the outs. Emanuel has championed charter schools, and by not buckling to the Chicago Teachers Union in 2012, fomenting a strike, Emanuel demonstrated a cunning toughness. The strike was short, the concessions were minimal, and the mayor emerged as the perceived reformer. (4) Unemployment is 9.4 percent. Vast swaths of Chicago are economically eviscerated, as manufacturing businesses and jobs flee to the suburbs or out of state, but a Starbucks recovery pervades most whitemajority wards. That means a multitude of bars, restaurants and service enterprises. The citys tax revenues have not plunged. (5) Then there is pride. Are people embarrassed to be a Chicagoan? The answer is no.

McIntyre-Panizzi said that the chamber submitted its sealed bid for the Northwest Highway property by the May 15 deadline and that the result of the bidding could be announced within a few weeks. The chamber has secured a potential loan to pay for the property. McIntyre-Panizzi said that the chamber hopes that in choosing a buyer the school board will take into consideration that the chamber has been a good tenant and that it has made significant improvements to the land, including installing a wrought iron fence.
pay by cell phone because the council didnt get data from other cities about how such an option might affect usage and revenue for the company. The assumptions made in their financial analysis were skewed to fit the administrations narrative in order to sell this to the council, and the revisions make it harder to legally undo this contract, Arena said. Despite all of the claims of savings, the city will pay $70 million in this settlement and $4.5 million for 71 years to come. I see no savings in that. We must work to extract the city from this awful contract. I think it was worth my support because we know that we will have to pay about $9 million and not $49 million, Cullerton said. If the aldermen change the parking restrictions on Sundays thats not too great either because we are creating additional revenue for them, Cullerton said. We are adding positive value to the parking meter system. The only spot in my
History . . .
On the Happiness Quotient, the dour Emanuel has passed muster. Race. Back in the 1980s, race mattered in Chicago. Blacks were apoplectic about losing the mayoralty, and whites thought the job was only temporarily lost. Of Chicagos 1,364,371 registered voters, 606,771 (44.4 percent) reside in the citys 20 black-majority wards. That should provide an instantaneous base for Preckwinkle, as it did for Washington, but for one caveat: Obama. In 2015 he will still be president, and he will endorse his former chief of staff for re-election. Against desultory black opposition in 2011, Emanuel got a majority of the black vote. Without 95 percent of the black vote, Preckwinkle cannot win. Geography: Bridgeport used to be the cradle of Chicagos mayors. There was a possessory mentality. Thats gone. Emanuel lives in Ravenswood, in the 47th Ward. So what? The old South Side versus North Side rivalry is passe. Articulation: You cant beat somebody with nobody. There is no prominent or consistent Emanuel critic. There is nobody who is attempting
to build or lead an anti-Emanuel coalition. Preckwinkle, who has chopped almost $800 million from the county budget, must get herself renominated in March of 2014 and re-elected in November of that year. To beat Emanuel, she must start now, but to announce now would undercut her re-election. To announce after shes re-elected would be foolhardy, as shed have only 4 months to organize. Preckwinkle will not run. Lastly, theres turnout. A mayor who engenders polarization and volatility is a mayor who spurs turnout. Turnout was 810,000 in 1979; it exploded to 1.2 million in 1983, to 1.1 million in 1987 and to 900,000 in 1989. Its declined since, to 463,000 in 2003 and to 456,000 in 2007, then spiking to 590,000 in 2011. Emanuel got 326,331 votes in 2011, nearly identical to Daleys 324,519 in 2007. As long as turnout, stays under 625,000, Emanuel is unbeatable. Send e-mail to russ@russstewart. com or visit his Web site at www. russstewart.com.
about the progression of the neighborhood but that there are many unanswered questions. She said that Chicago Public Schools records show that a schoolhouse in the vicinity of the existing schoolhouse on Leader was moved to a site near Peterson Avenue and Pulaski Road in 1899 at a cost of $379, but the relationship of that building to Forest Glen School is not known. Also at the meeting, G.B. StarrBresette and Mark LaRoque of the American Indian Center gave a presentation on the history of Native Americans. The center, 1630 W. Wilson Ave., provides academic, health and social services to Native Americans who are making a transition to urban life. There were about 550 Indian nations in North America, and the area that is now Chicago was a trade center because many trails converged here, Starr-Bresette said. What is now Edgebrook and Sauganash was part of the Caldwell Preserve, a 1,600-acre tract of land which the U.S. government granted to Billy Caldwell, a fur trader of mixed British and Native-American blood who also was known as the Pottawatomi chief Sauganash. Starr-Bresette said that his parents kept secret the fact that the family was Native American as he was growing up but that he hopes that young Native Americans will embrace their culture and heritage, including its rituals.
ward that could be affected by this is the Irving-Austin Business District, but I will give it some time before I consider this. Pawar said in a statement that he voted against the settlement because the add-ons to the contract would further enrich the company over the life of the deal. While parts of the proposal are good for the city, there are major pieces that I find problematic, Pawar said. Pawar said that while free Sunday parking is appealing, the agreement does not take into account how extending meter hours affects people on the other six days of the week. The Mayors Office asserts that the Sunday trade-off for extended hours will not net Chicago Parking Meters another windfall, Pawar said. While we know Sunday parking revenues top $8 million, we dont know what the extended hours are worth. The mayors team and outside consultants claim the extended hours will generate less revenue than Sundays. In essence, the hour trades result in a wash. I hope I am wrong but I think over time the trade-off will result in more revenues for CPM. Under the agreement, Chicago Parking Meters will accept the citys interpretation of the charges incurred. The company has been performing the calculations and submitting them to the city, but under the new agreement the city will perform them. The city will extend metered parking for blocks where it ends at 9 p.m. to 10 p.m. in most of the city.
