Aaron Tokarz tells us why he should be the next Rockford Second Ward Alderman. We also talk about his history, both in Rockford as owner of White Shutter Photography and as a Village of Gurnee police officer, and how those experiences inform his views as a potential alderman.
Alderman Venita Hervey also joins us. The wide-ranging discussion covers police and firefighter residency requirements, low income housing, medical care in Rockford, the Ziock / Amerock building project, and more! She also shares why she would like another term as Fifth Ward Alderman and her long-term view for the Ward and Rockford, generally.
Then, as usual, Caleb, Jim, and Jeff cover the week's highlights. Nobody wants to run for the RPS 205 southwest subdistrict board position, Pecatonica considers a TIF district to get a Dollar General, people fleeing Illinois, urban farming zoning issues, and the Rockford IceHogs chalking up some wins.
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, and happy any other holiday of your choice. Show notes for all episodes available at http://thisweekinrockford.com.
