On this day in 1964, African American civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his nonviolent resistance to racial prejudice in America. At 35 years of age, the Georgia-born minister was the youngest person ever to receive the award.

Dear Neighbor,
Earlier this week, Mayor Emanuel delivered his address on the 2017 City of Chicago Budget. We are reviewing the budget documents and proposals, and will have a more detailed letter for you on the contents of the proposed budget next week. You can read the Mayor's Budget Address by clicking here. The budget books, and other documents related to the 2017 budget can be found here. The Committee on Budget & Government Operations will be meeting at City Hall over the next two weeks to review the budget. These hearings give aldermen and the public the opportunity to ask questions of the city's executive leadership. The schedule of those hearings, including which departments will be testifying on each day, can be found on the legislative calendar on the City Clerks' website. I will be hosting two town halls in the coming weeks to present the proposed 2017 City Budget to you. We have scheduled the first town hall for 7pm on October 26th at Ravenswood United Church of Christ at 2050 W. Pensacola. Full information can be found on the flyer directly below this letter.

Dara Reports
Take a stroll along the riverbank (the 47th Ward's western boundary) from Montrose to Belle Plaine this fall. Look across the river to see how the newly installed Horner Park River Path is growing and changing with the seasons. The photo below was taken Saturday during a work-day; which is actually only 2 hours. Another reminder from a smart neighbor; especially during the upcoming season: put a note on your door telling delivery services not to leave packages on your porch. Ask them to leave a notice of delivery for you to act on. Or have packages delivered to a place that will accept them. If you missed the Health & Wellness Event in the 47th Ward, below is a list of Upcoming Free Flu Shot Locations on the North Side: 44th Ward -CPD 19th District Thursday, October 20th 10am-2pm 850 W.

Halloween Tips
Block Parties must open their streets by 7pm. Try to confine trick-or-treating to daylight hours.
Wear light-colored costumes, don't have masks which can restrict your child's vision, children should be supervised by an adult or a young adult the parents know well, stay in your own neighborhood, accept only wrapped candies, cross streets with care!
Animal Care & Control 2741 N. Western offers Low Cost Vaccine Clinics on the following Wednesdays
Safety Tips from CPD to Runners & Walkers: Run/Walk in groups instead of alone, do not use headphones, wear reflective gear, stay in well-lit areas, and be aware of your surroundings and those around you.
Early Voting will begin at 69 W. Washington on Sept. 29. On October 24 early voting will expand to 51 additional sites.
Interested in recycling, want to learn more about how/what recycling's about in Chicago?
Take a walk or ride your bike to the Montrose Metra Community Gardens to see the new wood-chips adjacent to the vegetable plots, the newly chipped brick-lined walking path and weed-free areas. Thanks to the hardworking volunteers from Sales Force. They worked during a very hot day this week to help maintain and beautify our community gardens. We thank them for their strong community spirit.
We're still in mosquito season here in Chicago. Some tips from the National Wildlife Federation to keep their numbers down: eliminate standing water; replace water in bird baths every couple of days, nurture native predators: plant native plants. Use insect repellent, fix window screens, wear long-pants and long sleeved shirts. Remind your neighbors about these preventive measures. Please be vigilant.
We are reminded this summer that sharing the roads takes vigilance from everyone.
Whether you ride a bike, drive a car or are a pedestrian, this safety information is important:
Please care for the new tree planted on the parkway. They require a slow trickle from a hose for 30 minutes once a week. During hot spells they'll need this more often. The tree will thank you for years to come by giving you cleaner air, shade and by absorbing more water during storms.
Gardeners Alert! Want to save water and cut down on weeds? The answer is: Mulch!
Neighbors want to share ideas & reminders. Please send us yours.
- Please trim trees and bushes from your front yard or parkway that hang over the sidewalks. They're hazardous to pedestrians, as well as children on bikes and scooters.
- Deeply water your trees in dry weather. Set out a hose slowly dripping for an hour; then move the hose to the other side of the tree.
- Want to help stop flooding? Don't run your dishwasher or wash cloths while it's raining.
- Please remember to put all toys, strollers, and other equipment inside your home or garage.
- Put a note on your door: do not leave deliveries; thwart thieves who are looking for packages on porches
- Please keep a porch light on in the evening.
- Reminder: dogs must be on a leash when off of your property, unless they're in a dog park.
- You must pick up after your dog (unless you can teach the dog to do it his/her self).
- Have nice wheels? Wheel locks could deter thieves.
- From our Police Commander in the 19th District: please call 911 if you see or hear any suspicious activity; anything that makes you think, hmmm.
Before you go on Vacation:
- Unplug everything to avoid power surges
- Set up timers on a lamp or two and leave a talk-radio station on
- Let a neighbor know you're going away
- Ask a neighborhood teen to water your plants
- Have the USPS hold your mail (you can do this online)
- Don't leave your spare key outside
You can limit crimes of opportunity.
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).
Last Call for Rain Barrels before the program ends in December 2016. Order up to 4 now and spread the word to neighbors. 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.
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 storm-water-runoff from your garage go into the alley; does it seem that there is more water on your property than ever before? Please contact Dara@chicago47.org
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
Forward Chicago, 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, want to learn a handcraft, play bridge or learn how, 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
Rehome/Recycle
Have an old television you want to donate? There's a resale store that accepts televisions (not just flat screens!): Unique.www.savers.com/unique
Have extra plastic bags in your house? Take these items to the local Jewel: plastic grocery bags from any retailer, dry cleaning bags, produce bags, trash can liners bread bags. These recyclables are used to make durable fencing and decking. Another win-win-win: keeping these out of the garbage, getting them out of your house and creating items that are good for the environment.
Recycling Reminder! Shredded paper goes in the Black Cart and everything that goes into the Blue Cart must be loose - not in a bag. If you find that neighbors are using your Blue Cart incorrectly, we have signs for you to affix to your cart which is a reminder of what goes where.
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 use batteries during our twice yearly, spring and fall recycling events only. They will be sent to a recycler in Michigan.
Ongoing Collections: pet food for Friendship Pet Food Pantry, blankets and towels are always needed for clean bedding at area pet shelters, used games for Sulzer Library's Game Night, eyeglasses for the Lions, and cell phones go to buy minutes for our troops overseas.
We always need good books for our Little Free Library. 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're here 9-5 Monday-Friday
