Hi there -- 

I hope you were able to do something you love over the holiday.  I spent most of the break with my son and used the additional time away from meetings to do some fall cleaning around my apartment. 

Please note that today's blog post includes two items specific to District 17. There are thre items that will be taken up together at Plan Commission today as well as an opportunity to share your feedback about Sandburg Park. 

In community,
