Alderman Anthony Beale's plans for 9th Ward Roseland

Does anyone know of any plans for the Roseland community? I drive around and see nothing but senior housing going up. The lot at 115th State has been torn apart a year ago yet nothing has been done to it, where's the Aldi and why do we need another when there's one just a mile west? There's nothing more than urban wear and hair supply stores on Michigan than blend quite well with the storefronts that are closed; such as...

Does anyone know of any plans for the Roseland community? I drive around and see nothing but senior housing going up. The lot at 115th State has been torn apart a year ago yet nothing has been done to it, where's the Aldi and why do we need another when there's one just a mile west? There's nothing more than urban wear and hair supply stores on Michigan than blend quite well with the storefronts that are closed; such as the former Rent-a-Center lot on 115th Michigan behind Curtis School. Lastly, how many more churches can one ward have, like we haven't lost enough tax revenue in our community already? have Can anyone share any information on ANY worthwhile project in the 9th ward???? I'm lost here...

    So after reading this article from several months ago, I'd like to respond to the question "Will Beale be around in 2015?"

    I hope not!

    Didn't realize I had two accounts on EB, although I'm ready to cancel them both due to the new changes here. Anyhoo, I was reading an article today that stated Ald Beale's daughter got accepted to Whitney Young Magnet school only after he made phone calls to the principal....This just...

    Didn't realize I had two accounts on EB, although I'm ready to cancel them both due to the new changes here. Anyhoo, I was reading an article today that stated Ald Beale's daughter got accepted to Whitney Young Magnet school only after he made phone calls to the principal....This just gets deeper. How dare these politicians slap their constituents in the face the way they do and have nerve to get upset when people don't come out to vote.

    I know that family members of politicians always seem to get the best jobs making the higher wages, but must they also sneak into schools, have more than one government income and on top of all that...STILL DO NOTHING FOR THE COMMUNITY?

Taxi drivers demand fare increases...

Taxi drivers protest in front of Ald Beale's office yet he was not available. I wonder if Ald. Beale can in return for rate increases can convince cabbies that everyone in our area areb't out to carjack or rob them. How about cab service in Roseland!

    well, I don't know what to discuss exactly, but as of now I don't like the way this is going, with having to "reveal" a message that got lots of NoThanks. Like mine from the infamous "Leashless..." thread. I got notified for 3 comments there, resulting in it being necessary to hit "reveal" to see the text

    The emails I rec'd from EB:
    Because this comment got so many "no thanks," we've hidden it by default and replaced it with a message saying it was removed.

    Going forward, please help us continue to make EveryBlock an informative, helpful and friendly community by making sure your comments fall within our guidelines.
    &
    We wanted you to know that a bunch of EveryBlock users have said "no thanks" to this comment that you posted:

    @ScottK I'm pretty sure no one's really disagreeing that it's a reasonable if not good law. I didn't ask about the law; if your condescending suggestion about the law being "hard to understand" was in response to my comments just preceding it, all I can is it was out of place and not very becoming of you.

    It is clear to me that you have zero tolerance for ANY dog to be off leash in ANY situation other than a place where it is expressly permitted by law. Fine, totally cool & I respect that. Is it because it's a law & you have zero tolerance for ignoring ALL laws, or is it just that you feel strongly about this one with an emphasis on the too ANYs that I specified?

    Maybe what I wrote wasn't particularly neighborly, but it isn't out of EB's guidelines, I don't think.

    could it be I had too many typos? :v)

    Thanks...police did a better job this week. They did at at Wilcox/Francisco under camera 398. We even got a car to sit there for a while! Amazing what a video that goes round the world will do to lite a fire under a Commander.

    Thanks for keeping us informed. Guess the police did a better job this week. They did at Wilcox/Francisco Camera 98 after we posted video of how bad it is.
