Renovations have begun on the space in the 5700 block of West Division Street that used to house state Rep. La Shawn Ford’s realty business.
The Illinois state representative is due to be arraigned in court Tuesday morning. Some West Side residents say they don’t believe he’s guilty of the 17 counts of bank fraud against him.
Most of the legislation takes effect immediately.
The funds will assist residents with purchasing and repairing vacant homes within a portion of the 28th Ward, as well as the 27th Ward.
The event begins at 11 a.m. Dec. 6 near May Elementary School.
The group will be honored by the Woodstock Institute at a conference being held Thursday in Downtown Chicago.
