Affordable, Transit Oriented Development
Up for Zoning Committee Approval
A seven-story 100% affordable housing
development, next to the Logan Square Blue Line, is closer to reality, per
Curbed Chicago

Despite fielding opposition from a neighborhood Facebook group
, Ramirez-Rosa's staff collected feedback from over a thousand residents, including 502 comment cards submitted at a public meeting last April.

Innovative Program Left on Table?
A novel program proposed by
the City of Chicago Department of Housing, and the Chicago Community Land Trust (CCLT), was rebuffed because it lacked engagement with community organizations.
The pilot program significantly lowers property taxes and gives access to a $30,000 grant for home repairs and energy upgrades; participants continue to maintain ownership of their homes. The ordinance - Affordable Homeownership & Housing Pilot Program (AHHP 02019-5555) - is targeted to six Chicago communities.
