The Cook County Department of Transportation DEBORAH SIMS and Highways (DoTH) is still in the process of evaluating multiple alternatives for this project, and 5th District a decision on a preferred alternative has not yet been made. A variety of factors will be considered when determining a preferred alternative, including but not limited to safety, DONNA MILLER operational efficiency / mobility, pedestrian and bicyclist accommodations, roadway and 6th District drainage needs, costs, impacts to both properties and environmental resources, as well as public ALMA E. ANAYA input. 7th District There are two separate alternatives, Alternative 2 and Alternative 3A, that are currently being LUIS ARROYO, JR evaluated between County Line Road and Wolf Road based on projected 2050 traffic volumes. 8th District Additional details on each of these alternatives are included below: PETER N. SILVESTRJ 9th District Alternative 2 includes a 3-1ane section with a continuous sidewalk and shared use path for the entirety of the project, just east of County Line Road to East Avenue.

Once the study is further along and a preferred alternative has been confirmed, the County will notify all property owners where right-of-way acquisition or an easement is anticipated for the proposed improvement plan. All land to be acquired will follow IDOT and Cook County land acquisition policies and processes. Your comment regarding the desire for a crosswalk to connect the Timber Trails subdivision with the shared-use path on the south side of Plainfield Road is noted. The Project Team will evaluate existing and any requested crosswalks from a safety perspective during the next stage of the study after a preferred alternative is selected. The Project Team is aware of the drainage concerns within the Ridgewood Subdivision. A proposed drainage plan will be developed after the selection of a preferred alternative. The proposed drainage.system will be designed to comply with the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District (MWRD) Watershed Management Ordinance requirements.

January 21 marks the first interview with a Cook County Health expert regarding COVID-19. 1 The following media compilation includes the full text of key news stories mentioning the health system.

Then put on a head cover, foot covers, surgical scrubs, and a yellow plastic gown. Next, if one is available, the N95 mask. Fitting it to your face will be the most important 10 seconds of your day. It will protect you, and it will make your head throb. Then, a surgical mask over the N95. A face shield and gloves. Cocooned, you’ll taste your own recycled breath and hear your own heartbeat; you’ll sweat along every slope and crevice of your body. Now, the hard part. Maintain your empathy, efficiency and expertise for 12 or 18 hours, while going thirsty and never sitting down, in an environment that is under-resourced and overworked, because your latest duty — in a profession with limitless duties — is confronting the most frightening pandemic in 100 years while holding people’s hands through it, through two pairs of gloves and a feeling that tomorrow could be worse.

Washington, Suite 500, Chicago, Illinois 60602 TEL (312) 603-0996 FAX (312) 603-9788 WEB cookcountyclerk.com Dear Friends: The March 15, 2016 Presidential Primary shattered modern-day records going back more than 25 years. The popularity of initiatives such as Online Voter Registration and Election Day Registration, as well as registration and voting for 17-year-olds, proved there is a great desire by voters to take part in the electoral process. This was the first presidential election to include Election Day Registration and voting by 17-year- olds who will be 18-years-old by the General Election – offerings we found to be very popular with suburban Cook County voters. This 2016 Presidential Primary Post-Election Report takes a comprehensive look at the voting totals, trends and statistics during the March primary throughout suburban Cook County. Below is a sample size of the standout primary numbers: • Voting before Election Day – by mail, or during early voting and grace period voting – accounted for 22 percent of all ballots cast in this election. • Early Voting set a new primary record with 113,641 ballots cast in a Presidential Primary. • More than 23,000 suburban Cook County voters took advantage of Election Day Registration. • Nearly 4,400 17-year-olds voted, accounting for 62 percent of the 7,085 who registered to vote. • Donald Trump won 25 of the 30 Suburban Cook County Townships, garnering his best total in Stickney Township, with 62.1 percent of the vote. • Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders were separated by just nine votes in Norwood Park Township (Clinton: 1,859; Sanders: 1,850).

  • Post-Election Report Takes a Comprehensive Look at the Voting Totals, Trends and Statistics During the March Primary Throughout Suburban Cook County
    Letter from David Orr Cook County Clerk Dear Friends: This March 20 Gubernatorial Primary generated great interest up and down the ballot, and we saw this result in record-breaking or near-record setting marks in the number of registered voters, voters who took part in the election, the percentage of voters who participated in Early Voting, and the overall turnout rate. Not only have we reached a record-high number of registered voters in suburban Cook County (1,549,688), the turnout for Early Voting was higher than any other Gubernatorial Primary and nearly as high as the 2016 Presidential Primary, and the number of voters who cast ballots in this election was more than had participated in a Gubernatorial Primary Election in the last 30 years. This 2018 Gubernatorial Primary Post-Election Report takes a comprehensive look at the voting totals, trends and statistics during the March primary throughout suburban Cook County. Below is a sample size of the standout primary numbers: • Voting before Election Day – by mail or during early voting and grace period voting – accounted for 29 percent of all ballots cast in this election. • Early Voting also set a new Gubernatorial Primary record with 109,811 ballots cast in-person before Election Day. That’s the highest total yet for a Gubernatorial Primary, and for Primary Elections, second only to the 2016 Presidential Primary (120,681). • Election Day Registration, offered for the first time in a Gubernatorial Primary, was popular with voters, especially younger ones. Voters between 17 and 22 years old made up 32 percent of the 4,278 who took advantage of Election Day Registration.
