Special service
area proposed
for Albany Park
Nadig Newspapers Serving . . . Edgebrook, Wildwood, Sauganash, Indian Woods, Lincolnwood, Niles
50 Cents Per Copy
by JASON PORTERFIELD
The North River Commission is
working with Albany Park's busi-
ness owners to establish a special
service area to pay for improvements
to the neighborhood's commercial
area.
Special service areas are local tax-
ing districts that fund services and
programs through a tax levy on
properties in the service area. The
properties that would be affected by
the taxing district are those located
along Lawrence Avenue from 2901
W. Lawrence to Kimball Avenue,
along Montrose Avenue from 2650
W. Montrose to Central Park Ave-
nue, along Irving Park Road from
Sacramento Avenue to Spaulding
Avenue, along Kedzie Avenue from
4907 N. Kedzie to Irving Park Road,
and along Kimball Avenue from
Lawrence Avenue to Leland Avenue.
When a special service area is es-
tablished, the city contracts with a
local nonprofit organization to ad-
minister it. Commissioners ap-
pointed by the mayor oversee and
recommend the annual services,
budget and service provider agency.
If approved, the special service area
would be managed by the North
River Commission.
If the City Council approves the
special service area, property owners
would see their property taxes
increase by 4 percent, with a 4.25
percent cap, according to Albany
Park Chamber of Commerce and
Lawrence Avenue Development Cor-
poration director Carla Agostinelli.
The services that would be funded
are street and sidewalk cleaning and
snow removal, private security and
improvements to public areas along
the arterial streets.
Agostinelli said that the property
owners would see the increase when
they get their tax bills in the fall.
She said that the average tax in-
crease for a condominium along one
of the service area streets would be
between $175 and $200 per year,
and that the increase for a small
mixed-use building could be less
than $500 annually.
The tax rate that is set by the
special service commission is levied
on the equalized assessed valuation
of each property.
Agostinelli said that the chamber
has been discussing creating a spe-
cial service area in Albany Park for
years and that an advisory commit-
tee was formed in January to begin
the push for the special services
area.
"People have been saying that Al-
bany Park is an up-and-coming
neighborhood for 30 years," Agos-
tinelli said. "We've watched re-
sources go to other parts of the city
and all of our surrounding areas
have special service areas."
Three public forums to gather
comments on the proposal have been
held. City staff will review the appli-
cation, which was submitted on June
14, and a final public meeting will be
held in the fall, Agostinelli said. It
would then be up to the City Council
to decide whether to approve the
special service area. If it is approved,
services can begin in January of
2014.
Agostinelli said that support for
the effort has been strong among
residents and property owners. "We
have gotten really great community
support," she said. "People know
that their taxes might go up, but
they will be getting services that the
city doesn't provide and that will
benefit the whole community and
hopefully draw more businesses to
the area."
Prospective special service area
commissioners have until June 20 to
apply. Commissioners are required
Two men were arrested after they
allegedly tried to resell a stolen car
to an undercover police officer at
about 7:50 p.m. Friday, June 14, in
the parking lot of the Dunkin
Donuts restaurant, 5050 N. Cicero
Ave., according to 16th (Jefferson
Park) District police.
A 30-year-old man reported that
after he bought a 2010 Toyota Camry
on June 12 for $8,500 through an ad
posted on the Craigslist Web site he
parked the car in his garage, and
that the following day he discovered
that the car was missing, according
to police.
The man contacted police after he
saw the Camry again listed for sale
for $12,500 on Craigslist the follow-
ing day and recognized the phone
number listed in the ad as the same
number that he called when he
bought the car, police said.
Undercover officers contacted the
seller and arranged to meet him at
the restaurant, and when the man
gave the keys to the vehicle to the
officers he and a man who was with
him were arrested, according to
police. Officers found a global posi-
tioning system device that had
been concealed in the trunk of the
Camry, apparently so it could be
found, and learned that the title to
the vehicle was forged and its vehi-
cle identification number was falsi-
fied, police said.
The suspects were identified by
police as Eddie Simmons, age 22, of
the 2000 block of Dewey Avenue,
Evanston, and Michael Childress,
age 34, of the 1000 block of
Blackhawk Drive, University Park.
Both suspects were charged with
receiving, possessing or selling a
stolen vehicle, and Simmons also
was charged with burglary and
forging registration, police said.

As the Taft High School Local
School Council was learning about
the successes of Tafts new fund-
raising foundation, it also received
news that the schools operating
budget is being cut by about
$800,000 despite a projected enroll-
ment increase of up to 300 students
in the fall.
It was reported at the councils
June 4 meeting that schools could
face up to a 15 percent reduction in
their 2013-14 budget as the Chicago
Public Schools switches from a per-
staffing-position funding formula to
a per-pupil funding. Schools were
given their budget totals later that
week.
School system officials say that the
previous funding formula was out-
dated and that the change will give
principals unprecedented autonomy
in spending matters in an effort to
create budgets to best fit the needs of
their students. The pool of newly
flexible funds given to each principal
will include money for teachers, sup-
port personnel, supplies and addi-
tional instructional programming.
However, principals also are being
asked to use their new budget pow-
ers to make cutbacks which could
affect programming and staffing due
to a projected $1 billion budget defi-
cit that the system is facing. Chicago
Public Schools officials have said
that the deficit is the result of declin-
ing or flat revenues and a $400 mil-
lion increase in annual pension pay-
ments and that they likely will be
forced to use one-time reserves in
order to balance the budget.
Details of Tafts budget will be pre-
sented at an LSC meeting at 6 p.m.
Thursday, June 20, but it is estimat-
ed that the new budget will be
between 3 percent and 4 percent less
than last school years budget of
approximately $24 million. Tafts
enrollment is projected to increase
from about 3,100 to about 3,400.
LSC chairman Ted Pirpiris said
that the reduction would have been
larger if it were not for the extra
resources that Taft was promised as
part of its transition to a full Inter-
national Baccalaureate Program
school. The program encourages crit-
ical thinking and independent stu-
dent projects.
Pirpiris said that under the new
per-student formula, budget adjust-
ments will be made on the 10th day
of the school year instead of on the
20th day as in the past. He said
that late-enrolling students could
cost schools funding and that the
earlier start to the school year,
which traditionally has been after
Labor Day, makes that more likely.
Also at the meeting, Taft principal
Mary Kay Cappitelli announced
that a graduate of the school made a
$10,000 donation to the school at a
recent tribute to former Taft music
teacher J.J. Stamm. Organizers of
the tribute concert have created a
nonprofit 501c3 corporation which
will serve as a fund-raising tool for
the school and provide tax benefits

Trustees continue
TIF district hearing
by JASON PORTERFIELD
The Lincolnwood Village Board of
Trustees at its meeting June 18 con-
tinued a hearing on the proposed
Devon-Lincoln Tax Increment
Financing District and the designa-
tion of a redevelopment project area.
The proposed district would en-
compass the Proesel Triangle com-
mercial area bounded by Lincoln
Avenue on the east, Proesel Avenue
on the west and Devon Avenue on
the south, as well as a portion of
Devon Avenue east of Lincoln
Avenue. It would contain 113 parcels
and would be the fourth TIF district
in the village, joining the Lincoln-
Touhy, Northeast Industrial and
Touhy-Lawndale districts.
As part of the process for creating
a TIF district, a joint review board
was formed consisting of the taxing
bodies that overlap the district,
including Lincolnwood School Dis-
trict 74, Niles Township High School
District 219, Oakton Community
College, Niles Township, Cook
County, the Lincolnwood Library
District and the village. The review
board voted 6-0 against creating the
TIF district in February, with
District 74 and the library district
expressing concern that a new TIF
district would not increase the tax
base.
At an April 16 hearing, several
speakers expressed concern that
the TIF district would place an
additional tax burden on residen-
tial property owners and that that
the village should look for other
ways to raise funds for redevelop-
ment.

In Poland, the international air-
line is named LOT. In Chicago and
Cook County, among Polish-Ameri-
can politicians, the operative word
is not.
As in, not have any real political
clout in the past, present or fu-
ture. In fact, Chicagos history is a
litany of failure for Polish-American
politicians: misplaced trust, ethnic
jealousy and rivalries, factions, geog-
raphy, unrealistic expectations, pro-
crastination, timidity. Those factors
allowed Chicagos Irish-American
pols, especially Mayor Richard J.
Daley, to play the Poles like a fiddle.
Divide and conquer was his strategy,
and it never failed.
It was said that at one time Chi-
cago had more Poles than Warsaw.
In the 1970s, almost a quarter of
Chicagos population was of Polish
ancestry. Yet Chicago has never had
a Polish-American mayor or Cook
County Board president. Instead,
Polish politicians were content with
a few crumbs from the table, such
as the city clerk or county clerk
office.
Fifty years ago, Cook County had
four Polish-American congressmen,
Democrats Dan Rostenkowski, Ro-
man Pucinski and John Klucynski
and Republican Ed Derwinski.
Pucinski was the Polish Prince,
and Rostenkowski was the Golden
Boy. Both were ostensibly on track
to be mayor, they detested each
other, and both readily allied with
the Irish to block their rivals ad-
vancement. Polish-American John
Marcin was the city clerk, and Stan-
ley Kusper was the county clerk.
Eight of Chicagos 50 aldermen
were of Polish ancestry, including, on
the Northwest Side, in the 26th
(Stanley Zydlo), 32nd (Terry Gabin-
ski), 35th (Casey Laskowski) and
45th (Ed Fifielski) wards, and in the
Southwest Side 12th, 13th, 22nd and
23rd wards. Aldermen Joe Potempa
(23rd) and Casimir Staszcuk (13th)
were Republicans. The 30th and
41st wards had Polish-American
Democratic committeeman in Ted
Lechowicz and Pucinski, respective-
ly.
There were a handful of Polish
Americans in the Illinois General
Assembly: Lechowicz, Roman Kosin-
ski, Peter Piotrowicz Peters, Norbert
Kosinski, Don Swinarski, John Fary,
Henry Klosak, Ed Kucharski and
Bob Terzich. Matt Bieszczat (the
boss of the 26th Ward), Charlie Bonk
and Lillian Piotrowski were on the
county board, and Valentine Janicki
was a commissioner for the old
Metropolitan Sanitary District.
Today that Polish beachhead has
totally eroded. Klucynski died in
1975 and was succeeded by Fary,
who was replaced by 23rd Ward Al-
derman Bill Lipinski in 1982, who
palmed off his seat, now mostly
southwest suburban, to his son Dan
Lipinski in 2004. Pucinski forfeited
his seat in a losing 1972 U.S. Senate
bid, but he became the 41st Ward
alderman in 1973, serving until
1991. He had hoped that running
with Democrat Ed Muskie as the
Polish Twosome would propel him
to victory, but Muskie never got
nominated for president. Rosten-
kowski, who was the powerful Ways
and Means Committee chairman,
was hit with a 17-count indictment
in 1994 that charged him with em-
bezzlement, fraud, witness tamper-
ing and misusing his office stamp
allowance; he lost a re-election try in
1994, and he was later convicted and
jailed. Derwinski was defeated in a
1982 primary. Only the younger
Lipinski remains in the 18-member
Illinois delegation.
There are no Polish-American
countywide officials, only one county
commissioner (suburbanite Jeff
Tobolski), and a handful of the 177
state legislators: Dan Kotowski,
Steve Landek, Mike Zalewski Jr.
and Joe Sosnowski. There is only one
Polish-American Chicago alderman
Mike Zalewski Sr. (23rd), where
the elder Lipinski remains commit-
teeman.
Polish migration to Chicago began
in the 1890s, and by the 1930s the
area around Milwaukee-Division-
Ashland was known as Little Po-
land, with a Polish-language news-
paper (the Daily Zgoda), and Polish
masses said daily at churches such
as Saint Helen, Saint Stanislaus,
Saint Boniface and Saint Mary of
the Angels.
The rising Polish political star was
Ben Adamowski, who was elected to
the Illinois House in 1932 at the age
of 24, but the political boss of the
32nd Ward, including Bucktown,
West Town and Wicker Park, was
Joe Rostenkowski, the wards alder-
man from 1933 until 1955, and the
committeeman until 1964. The elder
Rostenkowski made his son a state
representative in 1952 at age 24, a
state senator in 1954 at age 26, and
a U.S. congressman in 1958 at age
30. By 1980 Rostenkowski had, by
dint of seniority, risen to become
Ways and Means chairman.
The continuing waves of Polish
immigrants moved up the Milwau-
kee Avenue corridor, lined with
Polish delis and restaurants, result-
ing in a huge Polish presence around
Central Park and Milwaukee, in the
neighborhood called Jackowo, or
Polish Village, in the 35th Ward,
where City Clerk John Marcin was
the political boss. Saint Hyacinth
was the principal parish, and
Kosciuszko Park was the main social
venue. The areas longtime alder-
man (from 1955 to 1979) was Casey
Laskowski, a funeral director. The
area remained heavily Polish well
into the late 1980s, and Lechowicz
became the political boss after Mar-
cin was ousted as alderman in 1983.
Economic stagnation in Poland
precipitated a new wave of Polish
emigration in the 1980s, with the
more ambitious and entrepreneurial
and least communistic Poles
encouraged to depart. More than a
hundred thousand settled in Chica-
go, most around Belmont-Central
and near Midway Airport. Many
engaged in the home construction
industry and routinely bought and
sold properties for profit. The col-
lapse of the housing market, and the
revival of capitalism in Poland, sent
many Poles back to the homeland.
Little Poland is now upscale and
yuppified, Jackowo and Belmont-
Central are now Hispanic, and most
Polish Americans have moved to the
41st Ward or to nearby suburbs like
River Grove, Niles and Harwood
Heights.
The point is, if African Americans,
who make up 30 to 35 percent of
Chicagos electorate, could elect a
black mayor in 1983 and 1987, why
couldnt Polish Americans, who
made up 30 to 35 percent of the
white voters, elect a mayor? To un-
derstand, look at some critical elec-
tions:
1931: Republican William Hale
Thompson had been the citys mayor
for 12 of the previous 16 years, but
the Great Depression doomed him.
The Democrat who trounced him
was West Side county board presi-
dent Anton Cermak, then character-
ized as a Bohemian, meaning of
Slavic heritage. However, Cermak
was killed in an assassination at-
tempt on Franklin Roosevelt in
1933, and Ed Kelly, an Irish Ameri-
can from Bridgeport, the local sani-
tary district commissioner, took his
place. He fashioned the Kelly-Nash

The Arts Alive 45 organization is
planning a gateway mural honor-
ing the late Chicago artist Ed
Paschke that would be painted
under the Metra viaduct at Law-
rence and Avondale avenues.
The mural project will consist of
original murals featuring Paschkes
work painted on both walls of the
viaduct, which is east of the Coper-
nicus Cultural and Civic Center,
5216 W. Lawrence Ave. A request
for proposals for a design for the
project closed on June 12. The proj-
ect is being done by the Paschke
Foundation and the Rabb Family
Foundation.
The north wall of the viaduct
measures 120 feet by 12 feet, with a
20-foot wraparound on the east side.
The south wall is 110 feet by 12 feet,
with a 20-foot wraparound on the
east side. The sidewalk-facing walls
of two column walls that separate
the sidewalk from the roadway with
11 30-inch-wide columns each also
will be painted.
Both the aldermans arts adviso-
ry committee and a number of area
businesses have discussed wanting
to clean up the underpasses viewed
as gateways to the neighborhood,
Arts Alive 45 president Cyd Smillie
said. Arts Alive contacted the Rabb
Family Foundation to fund a mural,
and discussions led to including the
Paschke Foundation and designing
an entirely Paschke mural to honor
his Chicago and Polish roots. The
obvious gateway at that point be-
came the one at Avondale.
The Jazz, Jefferson Park mural
located on the northwest wall of the
viaduct will remain and will be
incorporated into the design. The
existing mural features dancers, a
train car and symbols of Polish and
American culture and was spon-
sored in part by the Copernicus
Foundation. A community marker
and plantings placed at the south-
west wall by the Wilson Avenue
Community Association also will
remain in place.
It is fortuitous and very cool that
early Paschke work from the 1960s
is very sympathetic in the use of
color and symbols to what is already
there, Smillie said. It is very, very
possible to have them side by side if
all parties agree that it doesnt take
away from either design.
The request for proposals specifies
that all work must incorporate
Paschkes art in a manner that
fully respects the integrity of his
work and represents his accomplish-
ments as a great Chicago artist.
Arts Alive 45 will supply artists and
paint for the mural, and the artist
selected will be paid $500 for the
design and will receive credit as the
designer. More than one artist may
be selected.
Smillie said that the Paschke
Foundation does not want a mural
that would be derivative of Paschkes
work. Their guidelines have been to
show Mr. Paschkes art in its true
form, she said. Arts Alive is hoping
to have a proposal that both respects
the integrity and specifics of Mr.
Paschkes work and the location. It
would be less honorable to paint one
image after another at twice the
scale of the original work without a
place for the eye to rest.
Smillie said that the Paschke
Foundation does not want to see ele-
ments of the artists work separated
from each other or taken out of con-
text. We have to establish a com-
promise between reproduction and
interpretation, she said.
Smillie said that she has obtained
permits for the mural and that she is
ready to begin preparing the site as
soon as the foundation chooses a
design, pending approval from the
45th Ward Arts Advisory Committee.
Smillie said that the north wall of
the viaduct is in good shape but that
the south wall will require extensive
cleaning. She said that the mural
elements that are painted on the
columns probably will only be on the
side facing pedestrians.
Other Arts Alive 45 murals include
the End of Watch fallen police offi-
cer mural located on the Metra
viaduct at Montrose and Knox ave-
nues, the First Responders memo-
rial mural at Sunnyside and Mil-
waukee avenues, and the Deco
Hounds mural in the pass-through
at the Klee Building, 4006 N. Mil-
waukee Ave.
Paschke was born at Sai nt
Elizabeth Hospital in 1939. He and
his family lived in the neighborhood
near Diversey and Central Park
avenues until 1948 and later near
Addison Street and Harlem Avenue.
Paschke earned a bachelor of fine
arts degree from the School of the
Art Institute of Chicago in 1961
and a master of fine arts degree
from the school in 1970. He taught
art at Northwestern University
from 1978 until his death in 2004.
Paschke belonged to a group of
artists known as the Imagists and
painted in as style that was influ-
enced by abstract and expressionist
art and by the pop art movement of
the 1960s. He specialized in a por-
trait style that incorporated images
gathered from such sources as news-
papers, magazines and television.

machine, and the Irish were in pow-
er. Eastern European ethnics were
out the door.
1955: This was the watershed.
Daley, who had been elected county
clerk in 1950, allied with county
Democratic Chairman Jacob Arvey
to get slated for mayor, and incum-
bent Martin Kennelly, who replaced
Kelly in 1947, was dumped.
Adamowski entered the race. It was
a titanic Irish-versus-Polish war.
The winner would rule for decades.
But it was no contest, because the
Polish bosses, Rostenkowski and
Marcin, sided with Daley. Chicago
could have had a Polish mayor, but
Adamowski was not their puppet,
so they allied with Daley, who won
a three-way primary over Kennelly
and Adamowski and went on to win
election to his first term.
1956: Enraged, Adamowski be-
came a Republican, ran for states
attorney, beat machine incumbent
John Gutknecht, and spent the
next 4 years unearthing city scan-
dals.
1960: Daley knew that Adamowski
had to go. If he had been re-elected,
Adamowski would have been in a
powerful position to run for mayor in
1963. Daley recruited law professor
Daniel Patrick Ward to run for
states attorney and put the full
might of his machine behind John
Kennedy and Ward. Kennedy won
Cook County by 318,736 votes and
Illinois by 8,858 votes, amid charges
of voter fraud. Adamowski lost by
26,000 votes, getting 292,000 more
votes than Nixon.
1963: This was the biggie. Ada-
mowski challenged Daley as a Re-
publican and blasted the mayor for
his alleged liberalism, for support-
ing open housing, school busing,
desegregation and public aid. Daley,
ever the master, tacked left. He
allied himself with African-Ameri-
can boss Bill Dawson, won the pre-
dominantly black wards with 90 per-
cent-plus of the vote, got his
machine to eke out 30 to 35 percent
of the vote in the outlying predomi-
nantly white wards, and beat
Adamowski by 138,792 votes.
After that election, Daley would
never again be seriously chal-
lenged by a Republican. He would
never again let himself be labeled a
liberal, and he would make no
Polish-American mayor. City Hall
would be run by Bridgeport and the
Daley family, with his son Rich the
heir apparent.
1977: Daley died in 1976, and, pre-
dictably, the City Council chose 11th
Ward (Bridgeport) alderman Mike
Bilandic as his successor. Bilandic
was a place holder for the younger
Daley. Pucinski announced for may-
or, fomenting a classic ethnic and
geographic brawl between the
Bridgeport insiders and the
Northwest Side outsiders. Bilandic
prevailed: 340,363-276,858, getting
51.0 percent of the vote to 32.4 per-
cent for Pucinski, with Harold
Washington getting 73,215 votes.
Pucinski won seven of the
Northwest Side wards, but Bilandic
won all but four of the black wards,
the Lakefront, and the Southwest
Side 11th (20,475-2,216), 13th
(15,124-7,430), 14th (9,691-4,864),
19th (11,567-4,467) and 23rd
(11,685-8,246) wards. Bilandic won
Rostenkowskis 32nd Ward 6,083-
5,141. So much for Polish solidari-
ty.
1990: That was the last chance.
Daley and Washington were dead,
and Rich Daley of Bridgeport was
the mayor. George Dunne finally
retired as the county board presi-
dent after serving from 1969 to
1990. So what happened? Two
Polish Americans, Lechowicz and
Kusper, ran in the primary.
Combined, they got 17 percent of the
vote, with Gene Pincham getting 32
percent and big-spending reformer
Dick Phelan getting 39 percent.
Its koniec finished. There are
no looming Polish princes or
princesses. There will never be a
Polish-American mayor of Chicago.
And the blame lies with perfidious,
gullible and timid Polish-American
politicians.

Trustee Ronald Cope said that he
does not favor speculative TIF
districts that are created in the
hope that they will attract develop-
ers and that he does not believe
that the area is ideal for creating a
TIF district. Cope said that he was
in favor of continuing the hearing
to see if a plan for the area devel-
ops.
Trustee Jesal Patel said that
there were no developers lined up
when the Lincoln-Touhy TIF Dis-
trict was created, and that while it
was originally designed to spur the
redevelopment of the Purple Hotel
property, 4500 W. Touhy Ave., it
later expanded to include other
properties. Patel said that the vil-
lage has a unique opportunity to
create a TIF district that will bene-
fit the village.
The trustees voted 5-0 to contin-
ue the public hearing to Sept. 3.
Trustee Craig Klatzco, who owns
two businesses in the area, recused
himself from the discussion.
Also at the meeting, the trustees
approved a recommendation by the
Traffic Commission to require vehi-
cles to turn right as they enter
Kilpatrick Avenue from the park-
ing lot of Psistaria Restaurant,
4711 W. Touhy Ave. Residents of
the condominium building at 4601
W. Touhy Ave. have complained
about traffic generated by the
restaurant.
Motorists would be expected to
use the alley behind the restaurant
to go west to Keating Avenue.
The commission discussed estab-
lishing a left turn lane from Touhy
Avenue into the east parking lot of
the condominium building, com-
plaints of cars parking illegally fac-
ing northbound on the 7100 block of
Kilpatrick, and left turns from the
northeastern driveway of the
restaurant parking lot.
The village board also approved
the purchase of a 2014 International
dump truck from Prairie/Archway
International Trucks of Springfield
through the State of Illinois Joint
Purchasing Program for $120,292.
The new truck will replace a 1995
Ford F-800 dump truck which is fre-
quently in need of repair.
The trustees also approved the
purchase of a 2013 Ford F-450 pick-
up truck with an aerial bucket from
Currie Motors Fleet of Frankfort
through the Suburban Purchasing
Cooperative for $77,968. The truck
will have an aerial bucket with a
41-foot reach.
The board also recognized police
officer Joe Lamantia, who is retir-
ing after 30 years of service. La-
mantia served as a patrol officer, a
detective, an evidence technician, a
firearms range instructor, a traffic
officer and a field training officer.

There will be a lot more of those
(donations), tribute organizer Rich
Winge said. We have the potential
as a group to do wonderful things at
this school. The benefit of having a
501c3 is clear.
Proceeds from the tribute concert
have been used to buy the school a
new digital piano, which allows
users to record music on a flash
drive, and to pay for refurbishing
Stamms grand piano, which he do-
nated to the school.
Stamm, who worked at Taft from
1958 to 1983, directed the schools
mixed chorus, and in 1964 he
directed Tafts production of Annie
Get Your Gun, which is believed to
have been the first Broadway musi-
cal to be performed at the school.
Cappitelli also reported that Taft
had 28 Illinois State Scholars this
year and that, while an exact figure
was not available, the school posted
a slight increase this year in its
average ACT score, which last year
was 18.4.
The council also honored four
retiring members, parent members
Pirpiris and Liz Meersman and stu-
dents Ciara McNaughton and Kath-
leen Meersman.
Pirpiris, who served on the LSC for
7 years, praised former Taft princi-
pal Dr. Arthur Tarvardian for the
leadership he demonstrated in reviv-
ing the school, calling him a very
complex principal who could be
abrasive at times but who was usu-
ally right.
Pirpiris said that he hopes the
council will give Cappitelli, who is
completing her first year as princi-
pal, the support that she needs to be
successful.
The student fee at Taft next year
will be about $240, in addition to
other expenses that students may be
charged. The additional expenses
include a graduation ceremony fee of
$90, a school lock for $15, a Spanish
or French workbook for $20, and a
variety of science, art, music and
advanced placement test fees. Low-
income families are eligible for a
waiver on a portion of the standard
fee.
to own a property or business in the
district or to be an agent or repre-
sentative of a property or business
owner. The commission also can
choose to have people who do not
own a property or business to serve
as ex-officio members.
Commissioners serve 2-year terms
and are eligible to renew their terms
as long as they continue to maintain
a business or ownership interest in
the district and are approved by the
alderman and the mayor.
The Sauganash Chamber of Com-
merce is seeking to create a special
service area at Cicero and Peterson
avenues.
THE ARTS ALIVE 45 organization is working to bring a
mural honoring the late Chicago artist Ed Paschke to the
Metra viaduct at Lawrence and Avondale avenues.
Arts Alive is working with the Paschke Foundation and
the Rabb Family Foundation to create a design for the
mural. The Jazz Jefferson Park mural shown would
remain in place.
