Dear Neighbor, I want to update you on the investigation into the tragic shooting of Kamil Shamji. Mr. Shamji was found dead inside of his cab on the 4400 block of N. Leavitt this past Monday morning. Today, Lamon Weathers, age 19, of the 2000 block of W. Arthur Avenue, was charged with one count of first-degree murder. For more information on the arrest, please click here. I want to thank the men and women of the Chicago Police Department for everything they do for our community. We truly appreciate the dedication of everyone who worked so diligently to make an arrest in this case. Western Avenue Viaduct Removal - FULL CLOSURE (3/4-3/7)On Tuesday, March 1st, the Western Avenue Viaduct over Belmont will permanently close and crews will begin demolishing the structure. The viaduct will be demolished and replaced by a new five-leg at-grade intersection at Western, Belmont and Clybourn and is expected to be substantially complete by summer 2017. The demolition of the viaduct will occur during the first weekend of the project and will require the full closure of Western to vehicular traffic between Nelson and George Streets as well as the intersection at Belmont. After the weekend closure, there will be one lane of traffic open on Western Avenue in each direction for the first five to six months of this project, with two lanes of traffic in each direction expected, until the project is complete.  For the viaduct demolition to be completed safely, Western Avenue will be closed to through traffic in both directions from Nelson to Roscoe beginning at 8 p.m. Friday, March 4. Northbound Western will reopen at 5 a.m. on Monday, March 7 as will southbound Western south of Belmont. The intersection of Belmont, Western and Clybourn will also reopen to traffic at 5 a.m. Monday. Demolition work will continue through Monday, March 7, on southbound Western between Belmont and Roscoe. That stretch will re-open at 5 a.m. Tuesday, March 8. Special care will be taken during the demolition of the viaduct to reduce dust and monitor vibrations. Vehicle traffic during the weekend closure will be detoured from Western at Diversey to Ashland to Irving Park, in each direction. Bicycle traffic on Clybourn and Belmont will be detoured via Leavitt, Roscoe, and Campbell, in all directions, and pedestrians will be directed north to cross Western at Roscoe. CTA will post information about its reroute at www.transitchicago.com, and I will share that with you next week. Large trucks will also be rerouted via Elston to Kedzie to Irving Park Road. By working continuously through the weekend, no additional full road closures are anticipated for the rest of the project, easing traffic disruptions for residents and motorists. Further, the accelerated demolition process will reduce the overall project length by one month and will shorten the time period that Western is reduced to one lane in each direction from six months to five months. Also, the original demolition plan called for both a three and six day closure of Western Avenue and the intersection at Belmont. With the accelerated schedule, the decking demolition will be completed over one three-day holiday (Pulaski Day) weekend. Throughout the project, the Chicago Department of Transportation is advising motorists to take alternate routes to avoid delays. The posted alternate route will be Western to Diversey to Ashland to Irving Park, back to Western in both directions for smaller vehicles (excluding large trucks). Motorists will be able to avoid the construction zone by exiting Western south of Diversey, or north of Irving Park, and using alternate north/south routes. Bus and large truck traffic will be maintained on Western Avenue during the project. I will continue to update you as the project progresses. Please remember to support our Roscoe Village businesses while this project is underway. For complete information on the demolition of the Western Avenue Viaduct, please visit chicago47.org.

Chicago Goes Bagless with Recycling
The Chicago Blue Cart Recycling Program is going bagless. Now, the City of Chicago is requiring all recyclables be placed in your blue cart loose without a bag.
We know that everyone wants to do their part to protect the environment, but when you put the wrong items in a blue cart you contaminate not only your cart but a whole stream of otherwise useful materials.
Plastic bags damage equipment at sorting facilities and also keep workers from seeing whether other non-recyclables - like greasy pizza boxes or Styrofoam - have been placed in the cart. Going bagless not only helps our environment, but also reduces unnecessary costs incurred by the City as a result of contaminated blue carts.
So lose the bag, and keep the recycling!
Recycling in your blue cart is easy. Some simple tips for going bagless include:
- Throwing recyclables directly into the blue cart throughout the week;
- Using a garbage can, bin or container to collect recyclables in your house. Then bring the full container out and toss the items directly into your blue cart;
- Using a bag to collect and carry recyclables out to your blue cart. Then toss the items out of the bag and directly into your blue cart. You can even reuse the bag.
The important thing to remember is to toss your recyclables loose into your blue cart. Recyclables contained in bags of any kind will no longer be accepted.
Recycling is an important step we can all take to protect the environment. I encourage residents to incorporate recycling into their daily household routines.
To help take away any confusion on what can and can't be recycled, the Department of Streets & Sanitation has launched a new website - Recycle by City Chicago - that will clear up misconceptions and provide a better visual representation of how to recycle correctly.

Dara Reports
Friendship Pet Food Pantry would like to thank all of the animal lovers who came out to support For the Love of Pets, their yearly benefit. FP2 helps families with a monthly distribution of pet food during difficult economic times at. Begyle Brewing's event space and beer made the party even more enjoyable. For a complete list of the many folks and businesses in our community who opened their hearts to these neighbors in need, please visit: www.friendshippetpantry.org When does your State of Illinois license plate tag expire? You will not receive a renewal notification. Please mark it on your calendar; there is no grace period. The new tag must be displayed by the end of the expiration month. Congrats to Lake View High School Senior Damian Medina. He won an app-creating challenge from the 5 th Congressional District. Check it out: https://vid.me/nloW His app is about a subject that is dear to my heart; voting. This next job posting is with Openlands. If you love trees this might be for you. Rain Gardens: Design & Plant Your Own Rain Gardens help prevent flooding and they're lovely. The plants require very little care, as they are natives. You can also, choose plants that will attract bees and butterflies. Wednesday, March 30 - 6:30-8pm at Sulzer Library, 4455 N. Lincoln Ave.
Save the Date - Start planning for our annual Spring Cleaning on Saturday, April 23. Talk to your neighbors, get together to clear your storm drains, pick up trash, weed the alley, lend a hand to an elderly neighbor and have a pot luck! Box up your unwanted books, get that unused bike out of the garage and gather your electronics, televisions, batteries; anything with a plug will be accepted at our Spring Recycling Event. This is a perfect opportunity for high school students to earn Community Service hours. Let us know where you'll be working and we'll drop off treats & large black garbage bags.
Have a home shredder? You may recycle your shredded paper in your Blue Cart (unless you have other uses for it). Place the shredded paper in a paper bag, staple or tape the bag shut and write Shredded Paper on the bag. Voila, just as easy as that.
If a parkway tree has been removed from in front of your house or residence and you would like another one planted, please let us know and we will enter your request.
The EPA no longer recommends recycling single use batteries, as they don't contain heavy metals. They can be tossed into your regular black cart garbage.
Please bring your rechargeable batteries to our office anytime. We will be collecting single usebatteries during our twice yearly, spring and fall recycling events only. They will be sent to a recycler in Michigan.
We will continue to collect winter coats, scarves, hats & gloves through the winter. The need is there and so are our unwanted items. Thanks. How often can eating a pancake breakfast and running a 5k along with like-minded neighbors, make a difference in someone's life? Please join in the Ravenswood Run, April 24th. The proceeds benefit the Ravenswood Community Services Food Pantry at All Saints Episcopal Church and the student Health Centers at Lake View & Amundsen High Schools.
Winter Safety Tips for Dogs & Cats can be found on our website.
If you know a senior or someone living with a disability living in a single family home, please let us know if they need help with snow removal.
Good Books Wanted!
It feels so satisfying to give books you or your children have already read or outgrown, to others who enjoy reading. Or perhaps the book you give away becomes that special one that propels someone to love reading? We always need good books for our Little Free Library. We're here 9-5 Monday-Friday. Check out the newest Little Free Library on the east end of the 2400 block of Cullom; just steps west of Western.
With winter comes SNOW! Please be a Snow Angel for an elderly neighbor or a neighbor living with a disability in a single family home. All that is required is when the snow is over 2", shovel the front walk and stairs. The reward comes from the great feeling you get from helping a neighbor.
Know a student? They can earn community service hours by volunteering. Our first request is for a Snow Angel on the 3400 block of Marshfield. Please call or email dara@chicago47.org We've had several coyote sightings in the neighborhood this fall. If you're interested in our wild neighbors, please take a look at our website. They're so important they have their own page.
Friendship Pet Food Pantry (FP2) FP2's priority wish list includes dry cat food and Friskies canned cat food. Drop off cat (and dog) food at Alderman Pawar's 47th Ward Service Office Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., or at the Friendship Center (2733 W. Lawrence Ave.) on Thursdays from 2 to 5 p.m. In 2016, pet food distribution will shift to the third Saturday of every month, from 9 to 11 a.m. Any one high-school age or older is welcome to volunteer, though a brief training is required. Other volunteer opportunities exist for all ages. Visit FP2's website, www.friendshippetpantry.org to learn more. Thank you! CAPS Meetings! Why should you attend? Learn how to be proactive in preventing crime, have your concerns heard. http://chicago47.org/beat-meetings/
You may attend any CAPS Meeting in your district (south of Lawrence is #19; north of Lawrence is #20).
FREE, yes FREE, Rain Barrels are available to everyone who wants to disconnect their downspouts. Thanks to the 47th Ward partnership with Metropolitan Water Reclamation District & Chicago Historic Bungalow Association. You may request up to 4 rain barrels! The next helpful step you can take is to plant a rain garden for your overflow; instead of having water in your basement, alley or the street.
There is less open land in our neighborhood, with that comes more water with nowhere to go. Our streets are designed to hold water, then to slowly drain - but with these larger rain events there is more water than our combined system can handle. Does your alley flood? Does storm-water runoff from your garage go into the alley; does it seem that there is more water on your property than ever before? Talk to your neighbors. Help one another to disconnect gutters. The more houses on your block that use rain barrels the less flooding you'll have. Please contact Dara@chicago47.org
Want to play or learn how to play Mah Jong? Join other like-minded women for a couple hours of bam, crack, east, dot...1pm; 2nd & 4th Friday of the month at Northcenter Senior Center.
Thanks to all of you who donated blankets/towels for the shelters. A car load was taken to PAWS. Please keep them coming.
If you or a neighbor is a shut-in, a Hot Meal is available every Saturday afternoon from the kind volunteers at Pilgrim Lutheran Church; call Janet Taylor 773-777-4052 or Jackie Mokszycki 773-961-8740
Do you garden on a corner or parkway? Please take a look at the list of upcoming water main projects in the 'infrastructure update' section of the newsletter. You may have to move your plants so they won't be destroyed or disappear.
Please be sure to report any drain that does not clear within 24 hours of rainfall to the 47th Ward Office or 311. Don't have a use for your old cell phones? Drop them off at the alderman's office. We collect year round for Cell Phones for Soldiers. There couldn't be an easier way to help our soldiers stay in touch with family & friends.
Forward Chicago, a grass-roots, all volunteer, non-profit brings active, involved, engaged folks together. Whether you enjoy walking in the neighborhood, are looking for a Book Club, into handcrafts, ready to learn or already play bridge, relish going to new restaurants for lunch or dinner or have another idea you'd like to bring to life, join us. www.forwardchicago.org

Western Avenue Viaduct Removal Project
The half-century old viaduct over Belmont on Western Avenue has been deteriorating for some time, and is reaching the end of its useful life. CDOT hosted an open house to discuss their plans to remove this viaduct.
This project will not only remove the viaduct, but will also rehabilitate the Western Avenue Bridge over the Chicago River, reconstruct/resurface the roadway on Western from Jones to Waveland, provide 13'-wide sidewalks, add a third travel lane in each direction during peak hours, provide over 80 new on-street parking spaces, and make pedestrian-minded intersection improvements like the addition of countdown timers and pedestrian refuge islands at unsignalized crossings. To review the design and other project details, please click here.
This project is expected to take 18-24 months to complete, and traffic lanes on Western Avenue will be reduced/shifted during the various phases of the project to allow for this work.
Work begins March 1st. See the alderman's letter above for more information. Check out this section over the coming weeks to keep updated on the project.
Stage 1, expected to begin in March of 2016 will include: removal of the viaduct, deck replacement on the River Bridge, and roadway construction. The work zone during this phase will extend from the south approach of the Chicago River Bridge north to Roscoe. During this time, there will be only one lane in each direction along Western Avenue. This is the most severe restriction in place during the project, and will last approximately 6 months. Once stage 1 is completed, there will be two lanes of traffic in each direction for the remainder of the project (approx. 18 months). To review the stages of construction and traffic control plan, please click here.
This project will have a profound impact to the travel times along Western Avenue. We will keep you updated as information becomes available on start dates and other important notices once the project gets underway. If you have any questions, please contact the 47th Ward Office.
