Dara Reports
Here's the 3rd week's harvest at Montrose-Metra Community Gardens from volunteer-run vegetable plots to benefit neighborhood food pantries. What a wonderful feeling of accomplishment and joy! So many cukes and zukes; even a patty pan ready for cooking! There were radishes, several types of kale, and a variety of tasty, aromatic herbs and spices. Did you know that pea tendrils, (not just the peas) are nutritious & yummy! We're learning so much from Jimmy & Kasey; our resident vegetable garden experts. Join us! We want to thank Whole Foods for the supply of veggie bags. Rain, Rain - Don't Go Away! How fortunate are we that there is no drought in the Midwest? Lake Michigan is up to its normal level. However, I'm certain you've noticed that when it rains, it really, really rains! Sometime water sits in the streets for a day or so - which is on purpose to keep the water out of our basements. Some peoples' basements still flood and others alleys and yards flood. What has changed to make this happen? What can we do about it? There are many reasons why we're being inundated with water in our streets. One reason is climate-change; another contributing factor is the loss of permeable surfaces around our neighborhood. What can you do? There are many free and easy ways you can make a difference: - Keep your street gutters and sewer covers cleaned off.
- Don't do laundry or run the dishwasher when it's raining
- Disconnect your downspouts. What will happen to the water if you disconnect the downspouts?
- You can catch water in a rain-barrel, remove grass from your lawn, parkway and corners, plant native plants, &/or create a rain garden.
Mother Nature is going to do what she does. Fewer permeable surfaces are inevitable. Yes, you can make rain-storms a non-issue. These are easy ways to make a difference. Looking for more information, inspiration or plants? Call or email Dara@chicago47.org. Ravenswood UCC looking for helper in their nursery! Ravenswood United Church of Christ is looking for a person to serve as a nursery assistant on Sunday mornings, from 10 am to 12 pm.

Sign up today and help Drive Hunger out of Chicago! Join us at Deerpath Golf Course on Friday, August 7th for a 10am shot-gun start.

47th Ward Infrastructure Update
Check out the infrastructure map on our website.
Lawrence Avenue Streetscape
- Landscaping work has been delayed, but will soon be performed along the rest of the project. Sod will be installed in mid-July since the original shipment was of poor quality and new topsoil will be added before plants are installed. Dead and damaged trees will also be replaced along the entire corridor. As always, please pay close attention to parking restrictions as crews will need to access these areas.
- New stamped asphalt will be installed to connect Claremont Plaza to Giddings Plaza in mid-July after the subcontractor experienced some delays. In Claremont Plaza, the brick pavers were adjusted and additional work will include a new fence to shield the dumpsters, which is expected to start in late July.
- There have been some issues with sidewalks and curbs/gutters spalling and the contractor will be removing and replacing a number of sections along the corridor. We will provide additional information on replacement timelines when they become available. This additional concrete work will extend the final project completion timeline.
- The new traffic signal controller at Damen was recently installed and timings have been adjusted. Remaining electrical work, which includes additional traffic signals, is expected to be completed by late July.
- Gateway identifier poles and bike arcs were recently installed and neighborhood identifier poles and banner arms are in place. New benches and trash cans were also installed along the corridor.
