Historic Austin building’s future uncertain

Residents want the deteriorating Laramie State Bank to be redeveloped By XUEER ZHANG AustinTalks

A court hearing in Cook County Circuit Court last week put the long vacant and deteriorating Laramie State Bank building under the spotlight – and its future still uncertain. A city inspection done in late July following a 311 complaint determined the property was “insecure,” with deterioration found both inside and outside the nearly century-old building. The two-floor building, located at 5200 W. Chicago Ave., was designated a Chicago landmark in 1995 due to its iconic Art Deco style. “What we are trying to avoid is demolition,” the city employee Glenn Angel told Judge Lisa A. Marino. In attendance at last Wednesday’s hearing were the building’s owners, city officials, concerned residents and preservation advocacy groups – all there to hear about potential redevelopment of the site. The Laramie State Bank has been boarded up due to multiple violations of the See LARAMIE BUILDING on page 10

Pritzker opens West Side office

Gubernatorial candidate opens campaign office in Austin By MICHAEL ROMAIN Editor

During the opening of a campaign office in Austin on Sept. 2, Illinois gubernatorial

candidate and billionaire businessman J.B. Pritzker — who’s widely considered to be the frontrunner in the Democratic primary race — explained what he said is the key to lower property taxes in already heavily taxed municipalities like Oak Park. He also laid out a range of proposals that he promised to push if elected. The main reason for high property taxes, Pritzker said, was the state’s chronically underfunded public schools. “The biggest challenge is that the state

of Illinois only puts up about a quarter of the money for school funding all across the state,” Pritzker said. “So roughly threequarters of that comes from local property taxes. A little, tiny bit comes from the federal government. “In an average state in the country, about half of the money [for public education] comes from the state and half from local property taxes. Illinois has consistently

Kim Foxx, on justice Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx was on the campus of Dominican University in River Forest on Aug. 24 to deliver the 2017 McGreal Lecture, which is designed “to engage the Dominican University community in a stimulating, strategic conversation as a way of kick starting the new academic year,” according to the school’s website. Last year, Foxx became the first African American woman elected to her position after beating incumbent, and River Forest resident, Anita Alvarez. Foxx spoke about embracing her identity as a black woman who grew up in the Cabrini Green projects and who, as a child, would hide in her grandmother’s porcelain bathtub and recite the Lord’s Prayer whenever shots would ring out. That identity and personal background, she said, informs her governing philosophy and approach to justice. “I know for many people it is hard to

inherit something you believe you didn’t create, but I inherited a system and a role in a system that, if I have any way forward, I have to own … I have to be actively engaged in relationships with the people that I serve. “[I have to meet] them where they are … with their frailties and their anger and their insights. We cannot talk about violence out of proximity with those who have been hurt. You cannot talk about what’s happening in the neighborhood and not be in the neighborhood.” — Michael Romain

Offers his ideas from page 1 been underfunding its schools.” Pritzker — who has been endorsed by Aldermen Chris Taliaferro (29th), Emma Mitts (37th), and state Rep. Camille Y. Lilly (78th) — said that, if elected, he’ll support legislation that would require the state to increase its school funding levels as a primary means of alleviating the property tax burden for Illinois residents. The gubernatorial candidate also blasted Gov. Bruce Rauner’s performance, drawing a sharp contrast between their governing philosophies. “Government is not a business. Government is not run like a business. We need a governor who wakes up every day thinking about investing in people,” Pritzker said. “There are people who have suffered because Bruce Rauner, for 736 days, wouldn’t pass a budget; wouldn’t even introduce a budget,” he added. “You know what’s happened to social services in our state. Agencies have closed, mental health facilities have closed — the things that I’ve cared about my whole life are under siege.”

Pritzker was accompanied by his running mate, state Rep. Julianna Stratton (D-5th), who defeated Democrat Kenneth Dunkin last year in a primary race that was widely considered to be a proxy battle between Illinois Speaker of the House Michael Madigan, who supported Stratton, and Rauner, who supported Dunkin. During the Sept. 2 campaign stop, Pritzker and Stratton laid out a range of measures they said would put the state back on more stable footing. Those measures included legalizing, and taxing, cannabis — which Pritzker said could bring in an estimated $350 million to $700 million in new revenue. Pritzker wrapped the legalization effort in a more comprehensive urban agriculture program that he said would include reforming the criminal justice system. “We need criminal justice reform,” he said. “The people who end up going to jail and prison are not the kids who come from the North Shore. You know it’s a racial issue. We’ve got to bring equity back; that’s why we have to legalize marijuana. To me, criminal justice reform is critical and legalizing marijuana is part of it.” The candidates also proposed implementing a small business loan fund for entrepreneurs and passing measures enacting universal preschool and a public option for the

a cheaper deal on their premiums for healthcare, and those who can’t otherwise afford those premiums can buy in at a lower cost.” CONTACT: michael@austinweeklynews.com

Boykin getting signatures, eyes possible race for board prez County commissioner deciding whether to run against Preckwinkle By MICHAEL ROMAIN Editor

Cook County Commissioner Richard Boykin (1st) — whose district represents a significant swath of the West Side, including all or parts of Austin, North Lawndale and West Garfield Park — has taken another step toward running against Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle. The commissioner’s team is now circulating petitions to gather the necessary signatures. Boykin, who has been seriously considering a possible run for that position for several weeks, confirmed this was the case over the phone on Monday. Boykin said his team is circulating petitions for both board president and his own 1st District commission seat, for which the term expires next year. “We’re circulating both sets — one for the first district and one for board president,” Boykin said. “We’ll make a decision by the end of September. We’re still on track to do that, but I wanted to be prepared for either case.” Boykin, who has been a vocal critic of numerous Preckwinkle-led initiatives — most notably the unpopular penny per ounce

However, he’s still looking for a third-party poll showing how he’d perform in a headto-head matchup with the incumbent board president.

According to a We Ask America poll, released earlier this month, 68 percent of the poll’s 900-plus respondents disapprove of Preckwinkle’s performance on the job, and 75 percent said they probably won’t vote for her next year. “We’re seriously considering a run and we

just want to be ready, process-wise, just in case we decide to do it,” Boykin said. “There are a number of things that need to come into focus in the coming weeks for us to do it.” Boykin said, when it comes to the beverage tax, “We all ought to be concerned less about politics than about the skyrocketing cost of living driving residents out of the county.” The first-term commissioner also addressed a Chicago Sun-Times report that quotes an adviser to former New York City mayor and billionaire businessman Michael Bloomberg, whom the adviser said is ready to spend “whatever it takes” to support politicians who voted for the beverage tax. In 2012 while he was mayor, Bloomberg passed a measure that would “limit the sales of sugary drinks larger than 16 ounces,” according to a New York Times report. The measure, however, was struck down two years later by the New York State Court of Appeals. Last month, Bloomberg’s office announced that it was spending $2 million to purchase ads defending Cook County’s sugary beverage tax. “Residents care less about those ads than what they can afford at the grocery store,” Boykin said. “This is a pocketbook issue. We’re sending a lot of money into other counties and the state of Indiana, where people are going to buy their sweetened beverages.” CONTACT: michael@austinweeklynews.com

Choirs from all over will gather at St. Michael Missionary Baptist Church on Oct. 7 By LEE EDWARDS Contributing Reporter

Choirs from all across Cook County and even places beyond Illinois will all converge on St. Michael Missionary Baptist Church, 4106 W. Monroe St., on Oct. 7 to compete in the third annual Cook County Wide Gospel Choir Competition hosted by Cook County Commissioner Richard Boykin (1st) and The Dr. Willie Wilson Foundation. Hosted by Inspiration 1390 AM radio personality Marcella Jones, the competition has five confirmed choirs that will be in attendance, with the hope that another 10 will confirm, according to Anthony Beckham, community outreach coordinator for Commissioner Boykin. The first- through third-place winners of the competition will receive cash prices of $1,000, $750, and $250, respectively. “We believe it’s necessary to bring people from our communities together and think outside of the box and be very creative,” said Beckham. “We’re so proud that we’re going to be working with the Dr. Willie Wilson Foundation this event. Each year gets bigger and better; anywhere from 400 to 500 people come out to this event. It’s an awesome event and this year we think it’s going to be our biggest event.” Boykin said his office looks forward to the competition each year because it offers an afternoon of stress relief for competitors and attendees. “We are a people who are soulful; we enjoy the opportunity to listen to music, gospel music,” said Boykin. “It has been so special to do the competition throughout the years

because people come and have the opportunity to praise and worship and then you have some competition sprinkled on top of that where you have choirs that come from every part of the county to participate.” Beckham shared that typically Boykin has taken the reigns for the past three years past to serve as the primary sponsor to allow the public to attend the event free of charge. Boykin guaranteed that this year’s event will be a “standing room only” event. The impact of the competition seems to be greater than just singing. “We just think that right now there’s a lot of different things going on in our community and gospel music is just one of those things that bring all wide range of people together and we want to preach positivity in our community,” said Beckham. “We want to put a narrative in our community that we all can come together and that we can be that change that we’re looking for in our communities. We need the Lord more than ever in our communities; there’s so many elements and issues that’s going on in our communities and this is one of those events that just brings people together.” However, don’t expect Boykin himself to lead any choir or be a key vocalist. He laughed at the notion that he would ever join in. “I’m going to be clapping my hands and tapping my feet,” said Boykin. “I’m going to sing along to the hymns that I know like ‘Amazing Grace’.” This year’s non-competition performance will be led by The GMac Mass Choir. Last year’s performance was by Dexter Walker & Zion Movement, according to Beckham. CONTACT: leeme117@gmail.com

Austin youth summit looks to empower, educate

The Sept. 9 event, organized by Austin Coming Together, could become a community mainstay By IGOR STUDENKOV Contributing Reporter

At first glance, the party that unfolded on Austin Town Hall Park’s front lawn on the warm, sunny afternoon of Sept. 9 was just another back-to-school party, with free food, loud music and local community organizations advertising their programs. Some of the residents that stopped by assumed as much. But the I Love Austin Youth Showcase and Summit wasn’t quite that. The event was organized by the Austin Coming Together coalition as part of its effort to not only organize more activities for local youth, but to get them more involved in their communities. The teens who attended were able to attend workshops dealing with art, community organizing and self-improvement. ACT hopes that the young people will continue to be involved and engaged, and that the summit will become an annual event. According to Darnell Shields, ACT’s executive director, the summit was a direct result of a July 29 community summit, which was designed to gather residents’ input on a qualityof-life plan for the community. Shields explained that one of the pieces of feedback the coalition got was that there needed to be more engagement with Austin youth. ACT decided to create an event that would do that – but that was created by the youth, for the youth.

ALL IN FUN: Dancers perform at Austin Coming Together’s youth showcase and summit, held Sept. 9 in Austin. To that end, they sought input from teens and young adults, many of whom were already involved with ACT. That included Jason Ware, an Austin High School student; local community organizer and youth mentor Albert Stinson; event planner Joy Heard; and Jose Abonce, a community organizer with ACT, among others. Together, they recruited a number of Chicago dance troupes, including Move Me Soul youth dance company, M.A.D.D. Rhythms tap dancers and Happiness Club dancers. They also brought in rap/R&B artist VonyWayUp, Christian rapper Holly Grind and spoken word poet Goddess Warrior. King Ron the Poet served as the MC. Most of the second half of the event was dedicated to workshops. Community Organizing 101 taught the basics of creating youth driven, community focused campaigns. The

Art & Peace-Making workshop combined peace circle format discussion about what the participants love Austin and creating the artwork expressing their feels. The Gaining Awareness 2 Nullify Genocide (G.A.N.G.) [sic] workshop, which was developed by Stinson, set out to make the youth aware of subconscious influences and selfdestructive patterns that could lead them to making choices that hurt themselves and their community. “It was really about young people finding their voice alongside adults, so they understand what they want the community to look like,” Shields said. Abonce said that he hoped that the summit would be both fun and educational. “Hopefully, first of all, [youth will just have] a good time,” he said. “Hopefully they’ll come away with some sort of exposure, different type of skills they can get trained in [in the future], if they choose to.” The summit featured a number of organizations from Austin and elsewhere. Vision Zero Chicago, a Chicago Department of Transportation initiative that works to improve traffic safety, was there to collect input from residents and promote the upcoming Sept. 30 community forum. Jane Addams Resource Corporation was there to promote free manufacturing training programs for low-income residents, which it runs out of Austin High School. City Bureau, a Woodlawn-based journalistic nonprofit which has worked with this newspaper in the past, was there to do its own job recruiting. Austin Food Co-Op, which formed in July 2017, was there to get its word out about its existence. “I think, overall, it’s just a good, positive event on the weekend,” Abonce said. “We need more events like this.” CONTACT: igorst3@hotmail.com

Power tools empower home owners

’ve owned my home for 28 years now. I am nowhere close to paying it off, but it’s mine (and the bank’s) and that is the most important thing. One of the things I learned even before purchasing my home was that power tools are the best investment to save time and money. When my daughter was three, I bought her a kitchen set. I was thrilled to see that it came in three boxes: for the stove, refrigerator and sink. Then I learned the cruel lesson of just how hard it is to screw 100 tiny screws into metal pieces. By the time I finished, my hands were raw and my patience exhausted. So when the store ads came out the following Sunday and Sears had an electric drill on sale, I ran and bought it. I still have that heavy drill although I’ve supplemented it with a cordless one over the years. But when push comes to shove, that old drill can be the best solution. Over the years, I have added to my tool collection. A circular saw, a miter saw and a table saw are some of my prized possessions. Each has its advantage and I’ve put all three to use at various times. What having those tools means is that home repairs I normally would have to pay a skilled tradesman to do, I can do. Truthfully, there is very little I won’t attempt. When my second-story addition was added and the contractor didn’t want to spend time doing the finishing carpentry, I took on the challenge. It took me longer to accomplish than he and his crew would have taken, but I changed the molding in all the rooms to go along with everything from the masculine décor for my son’s room to a more feminine embossed wood for my daughter’s room. The hallway has a more neutral detail and for my bedroom, I used several different pieces of wood to make a more defined statement for my master bedroom. I recently needed to have some work done on my garage. When I called my usually

reasonable handyman, his price was probably fair but beyond what I could afford. I am on my third full-time job this year, and it is taking a moment to recover from my transitioning from job-to-job-to-job. So I decided to take on the task. Eight hours later, I was sore beyond belief. I discovered that some of the wood has rotted and cannot be saved. Thankfully I am skilled enough and brave enough to be up on a ladder with a circular saw cutting out the damaged wood and replacing it with new wood (pictures will come once I’m done). It is also good that I like doing this kind of stuff. I was about 80 percent done with what I could accomplish when a young man approached me. He asked if I needed help. Hell, I’m almost done for the day, I thought. Where was he six hours earlier when I had to get started alone because my son, who was supposed to help, had to work? I told the young man I was almost finished for the day and that it was kind of late to hire help. He then told me I shouldn’t be doing that kind of work. An honest observation, but at the same time I had accomplished quite a bit on my own. So his comment, even if it was honestly true, pissed me off. It was sexist. I can do home repairs better than a lot of men. I thanked the young man politely for his offer and sent him on his way. The next couple of nails felt my wrath as I pounded them while silently cursing him for telling me I shouldn’t be doing what I was already doing. I hope to be completely done in the next week or two. I have to work so I can only accomplish so much after work. But in the meantime, I want to be an inspiration to women homeowners to at least own a power drill and try to do some things yourself. The reward is the joy of accomplishing repairs without having to pay someone else to do it. And for those who have the money to pay the handyman, well, at least we’re keeping folks employed.

The property is owned by longtime Austin residents John Young Sr. and Earline Ruffin, who obtained the building through an auction in 1994. It’s been entrusted to Chicago Title Land Trust Company since 2002. The court issued a preliminary order in July 2012 that the building shall not be leased, rented or occupied, Ruffin said in an interview after last week’s hearing. The property was turned over to an Urban Partnership Bank receiver, who has failed to maintain it over the years, she said. During the hearing, Ruffin told the judge they have talked with both the city and their attorney but haven’t decided yet whether, and to whom, they should sell the building. “We knew the condition when we had the

conversation,” Ruffin said, who arrived early at the hearing Wednesday afternoon with her husband Young and their youngest son, Dion. “The damage is overwhelming,” she said, adding her son has had to step in to help them decide what to do. “We are in limbo about selling or keeping [the property],” Ruffin told the judge. “We don’t know how to put this together.” Judge Marino told Young and Ruffin they could make a decision about the landmark property after further talks. “We know you have rights and liability,” the judge said. “But this is becoming more about liability.” They are willing to work with people who are interested in finding a solution, Ruffin told the judge and about a dozen others who gathered in the Downtown courtroom. “It’s going to be a long discussion,” she said. Specialists and activists from several preservation advocacy groups, including Landmarks Illinois, Preservation Chicago and Chicago Art Deco Society, were also at Wednesday’s hearing. “They are actively looking for somebody who’s willing to acquire the property from the owners for redevelopment,” the city’s attorney told the judge.

WHAT NOW?: The Laramie State Bank is the source of residents concerns. The property also includes a parking lot, the attorney said, adding it would be easier if the developers could take both that and the bank building. Ward Miller, executive director of Preservation Chicago, said his group is seeking the necessary resources for the building’s repairs and renovation. “We are aware that the building is a designated Chicago landmark,” he told the judge,

adding it’s important to prevent its destruction. Concerned Austin residents also turned out for the hearing in hopes of better understanding the situation and to see what they can do. “The Laramie bank is the oldest Art Deco building in Austin,” said longtime resident Dwayne Truss, who came to the hearing to show support for the building that he wants to be used for the community. Longtime Austin resident James Bowers agreed. “It’s actually the finest terra cotta architecture in the world,” said Bowers, a partner with the West Side travel agency Gone Again Travel & Tours. Bowers said in an interview before the hearing that he wants the vacant building to be used as a museum where children can do art and music. Vanessa Stokes, a project coordinator with Austin Coming Together, was also at the hearing to see how her organization can help. Judge Marino ordered that the building continue to be kept vacant and secure until the next hearing, which is scheduled for 2 p.m. Nov. 29 in courtroom 1107 of the Richard J. Daley Center.

Galewood, Montclare residents renew push for library

Residents are floating a petition urging the city to restore the full-fledged branch library By IGOR STUDENKOV Contributing Reporter

Nearly seven years after their neighborhood branch library was reduced to a room in a fieldhouse, residents of Galewood and Montclare are making another push to get their library back. Last month, members of a committee launched by Ald. Chris Talieferro (29th) in March created a petition urging Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Chicago Public Library Board of Directors to restore the branch. On Sept. 25, it is planning to make a more detailed case to the library board, outlining possible locations and the possible funding sources. The library was previously located at the intersection of Grand and Sayer Avenues, but it closed in 2010 due to a lengthy dispute with the building’s landlord over $70,000 in property taxes and assorted fees owed to the city. The library moved to 400 square-foot room in the Rutherford Sayre Park fieldhouse, 6871 W. Belden Ave., as a temporary measure, but a more permanent location has yet to materialize. In response to residents’ complaints, the Chicago Public Library system tried to make some improvements, adding a computer and a drop box. But the location is still constrained by its size. The many amenities

that patrons at most other branches take for granted – most notably, free Wi-Fi – aren’t available, and, unlike most other branch libraries, the Galewood-Montclare branch isn’t open on Saturdays. During the 2015 election, which saw Taliaferro face off against incumbent alderman Deborah Graham, both candidates promised to do something about the situation. In March, Taliaferro said that he was wellaware of the problem and that the library committee is trying to figure out the solution. Committee chair Tom Drebenstedt said that the group has been talking to Taliaferro, as well as Ald. Glbert Villegas (36th), whose ward includes the portions of Montclare that aren’t part of the 29th Ward. “We’ve [also] been taking a look for possible sites [for a full-fledged branch] in both wards,” he said. “That’s the majority of our work” The Committee for the New Galewood Montclare Library launched the petition in the early August. In it, they laid out the case for a full-fledged facility. They noted that the current room barely has enough space for more than a few people, let alone to hold programs common in nearby branch libraries. It also pointed out that the room is next to the fieldhouse gym, which creates a noisy environment. “Our residents deserve a library to help strengthen our diverse community, provide children with a safe place to learn valuable life skills and engage in the arts,” the petition stated. “Our children need access to homework support and reading programs that help bridge the economic gap in academic performance. It would help our local

businesses by providing business resources such as meeting spaces, access to computers and librarians.” Drebenstedt said that the petition was part of the case the committee was planning to make to the library board as a way to show how much support exists for a full-fledged branch. “We’re going to go to the next library Board of DIrectors meeting and present our case,” he said. “We’ve been picking sites, and we’re going to present our thoughts. And hopefully, both aldermen [Taliaferro and Villegas] will be at this meeting. And hopefully, this will show [the directors] that we need a new branch.” One of the major stumbling blocks to a new branch was funding. In recent years, the city tried to get around this by combining new library facilities with other projects. In 2013, the Back of the Yards branch library moved to a larger space inside the new Back of the Yards High School building. In October 2016, the city announced that the library board teamed up with the Chicago Housing Authority to build two developments that would have a library on the first floor and affordable housing units on the floods above. One would serve as a new home for Irving Park’s Independence Park branch library, which was gutted by fire a year earlier, and one would become a large space for West Ridge’s Northtown branch library. Most recently, on Aug. 17, another project of this kind, near the former site of Jane Addams Homes public housing development in Little Italy neighborhood, cleared the Chicago Plan Commission.

When asked if the committee would be open to something like this happening with the Galewood-Montclare Library, Drebenstedt said that it was one of the ideas they were considering. He declined to discuss any details about what other funding ideas they will propose, as well as what possible branch locations it would propose, saying that he would rather save it for the meeting. “We have some ideas and we think we have couple of avenues [of funding] we want to propose,” Drebenstedt said. “And after this presentation, hopefully, [the directors] will say ‘keep going,’ and, hopefully, aldermen will support the idea.” The Sept. 25 meeting will take place at 9 a.m. at Harold Washington Library’s Thomas Hughes Children’s Library, which is located on the second floor. Patrick Molloy, CPL’s director of government and public affairs, said that the library is open to the idea of a full-fledged GalewoodMontclare branch. “We have discussed possibilities for a permanent, full service location with local aldermen and community leaders and continue to be open to finding one,” he said. “However, any new library would require an appropriate location, as well the necessary funding.” Meanwhile, the petition has been gathering steam, collecting 469 signatures as of Sept. 8. While it originally aimed for 500 signatures, it has since upped its goal to 1,000. Individuals can sigh this at: https://www. change.org/p/rahm-emanuel-build-a-newgalewood-montclare-library.
