The 40th ward recently held a public meeting with Alan of Candea Development to discuss the proposed project at 5400 N Ashland Ave. Prior to this meeting, WANT’s Land Use & Zoning Committee met to review the project. In response to the Alderman’s request for feedback, LUZ reiterated WANT’s commitment to down-zoning in our neighborhood and found the plans that were submitted are not a good fit for the neighborhood.

If you would like to provide your own feedback, the Alderman’s office will continue to accept online feedback from the public through June 25th. Please use the 40th Ward Zoning Change Feedback Form to comment on this project.
