Come and bring your questions to the Ecology Center at 6:30 this  Thursday the 16th. What is the city thinking of doing with our Evanston  properties?
 
In addition to fire safety issues, Alderman Grover may be able to  shed some light on why the City seems to think it is OK to cut services  such as the Chandler Center, Ecology Center, and Jans/Govern golf course  -- which all happen to be located in north Evanston. The City actively  worked although those branches supported literacy and community spirit.  Now it looks like the arts and recreation are not important. I think  these services are what makes Evanston a great community.
 
Our property tax dollars support all Evanston services, just like the  Levy Center, Robert Crown, Fleetwood, Beaches, Main library, Civic  Center, etc. 
 
Evanston is a city of neighborhoods and neighborhood services; that  is why people come and pay the prices for the houses and the taxes they  pay. If the services are only Downtown, Main/ Dodge Robert Crown,  Oakton/Dodge Levy Center and James Park, Foster /Fleetwood and  lakefront, that hardly seems to support the idea of neighborhood  services for all.
