Honorable Walter Burnett

Chairman, Committee on Pedestrian and Traffic Safety City Hall, Room 300 121 N. LaSalle St. Chicago, IL 60602

Dear Chairman Burnett,

Please be advised that I plan to introduce an ordinance to City Council to rescind the existing Rush Hour Parking Restrictions zones and associated signage on Austin Avenue between Grand Avenue and Fullerton Avenue. The introduction of this ordinance is in support of the upcoming bikeway and Divvy expansion.

It would be appreciated if you would send a commissioner's authority letter to the Department of Transportation to expedite the installation of these signs pending the passage of the ordinance.

Gilbert Villegas Alderman, 36^th Ward

Your assistance with this matter will be greatly appreciated.
