September 2026 Events & Actions

Whether you are new to the issue, weren’t able to make our previous meetings, or are looking for ways to jump in and help, this community update meeting is for you!

What we will cover:

• The latest status report on the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC) Docket No. 26-0047.
• ComEd’s recent dismissal of 14 community-proposed alternative industrial sites—and why their reasoning doesn’t hold up.
• Upcoming fall milestones, volunteer opportunities, and how residents and local businesses can get involved.

Bring your questions and your neighbors! Everyone in the community is welcome.

Join us for a massive, family-friendly neighborhood rally directly outside the proposed ComEd substation site at 1111 W. Diversey Parkway! We want to show the city and the utility that our neighborhood is completely united.
