This is Scott Gillingham's fault, and councillors, press, and residents need to treat it like it's his fault. He let DCSP walk on a motion to take over Connections and then let it sit inaccessible. He let redesign plans go unfunded. We deserve a safe accessible library for everyone. He doesn't care.

If Janice Lukes or Scott Gillingham had wanted to make Wellington Cres safe, they clearly could have done so. This is a good program! These changes are good ones! But they do not care about our lives or those of our loved ones.

Wendy, Rob’s widow, was IN THE ROOM when Janice Lukes promised this. We’re having a block party TODAY at Rob’s ghost bike to celebrate Rob. We hoped we could celebrate safe infrastructure coming in his name, too.

Rob Jenner was killed by a driver one year ago TODAY. Councillor Janice Lukes hasn’t delivered on safety measures that she promised the community would be implemented THIS YEAR. And now she’s pushing back even LOOKING at the proposal into JULY.

Janice Lukes’s answer for why we can’t move faster is we don’t have the money, but she’s 100% behind billion-dollar road widening projects that are estimated to save drivers 12 seconds on their commutes, and wants us to celebrate $7m/year for active transportation, much of which is just for studies

She very clearly wants credit for being an advocate for active transportation without committing to build any infrastructure that will inconvenience her suburban driver constituents.

Lisa: “I don’t know if I can say this strongly enough. I am *livid* about what happened last Wednesday.” People following process carefully, and nobody know during entire day that mayor Gillingham had called DCSP and had them throw in proposal that day

I'm on the bus home, so I'll leave you with John's beautiful scarf, a testament to this (im)moral document, made with his care and thoughtfulness

Mayor Gillingham is the most opaque, corrupt city leader I’ve ever seen and I’ve lived in fucking Chicago.
