The City Council Committees on Finance and Economic, Capital, and Technology
Development have assembled a Task Force of community leaders and elected
officials to address high speed internet opportunities for all Chicago
residents. Our primary goal is to determine a vision and a strategy to
guide the City of Chicago in its efforts to ensure that affordable high
speed internet access is accessible in every neighborhood of the city.
To this end, we have scheduled the second of three public hearings on the
need for affordable high speed internet access in Chicago neighborhoods and
business districts. The first meeting will be held:
Date: Thursday, July 28, 2005
Time: 6:30 p.m.
Location: Malcolm X Learning Center, 4624 W. Madison, Room #105
We are still in the process of a scheduling meeting on the south side of the
city and will inform you as soon the date and location is confirmed.
It is very important that you or a representative from your organization
make every effort to attend one of the meetings nearest to you. We hope
that you can also assist us by inviting residents and businesses to testify
at these hearings. The level of public demand and support will be crucial
as we make plans to move forward.
Please contact Aileen Kim at (773) 736-5594 to confirm your attendance and
the names of people who are expected to testify.
Thank you and we hope to see you at the hearing!
