What percentage of the total budget should go towards street resurfacing?
The Streets Committee of the 45th Ward Participatory Budgeting Initiative identified and prioritized the streets most in need of resurfacing. Please note that it is subject to Chicago Department of Transportation approval. Please select one of the options below:
Student Safety and Digital School Signs
Lloyd School and Chicago Academy both need new digital signs to help spread the word about community events! Also, for safety, Chicago Academy students need a speed display on Austin and safety netting around the field to reduce danger for students coming to and from school.
Estimated Cost: $135,000
Student Safety and Bell Park Improvements
Students from 11 schools cross Central between Grand and Fullerton everyday. A pedestrian island on this major street will improve safe crossing. Additionally, safety nets at Northwest Middle School and Bell Park will increase safety. Furthermore, Bell Park will get a new volleyball court and pathways.
Estimated Cost: $205,000
