Howard Street SSA focuses on
assisting businesses in 2005
Moving into its sixth year of operations,
Special Service Area (SSA) #19 will devote
even more attention and resources to individual business owners within the Special
Service Area boundaries, which includes
Howard Street from Greenview Avenue to
Ridge Boulevard and portions of Rogers
Avenue, Clark Street and Paulina Avenue.
Since 1999, SSA #19 has worked to
help beautify this area through banner, street
maintenance and landscaping programs.
The Howard Street SSA has also promoted
the street through advertising and promotions and the Rogers Park Community
Crafts and Farmers Market. While the
majority of these programs will continue
next year, the Special Service Area #19
Commission is working to develop and
expand programs that will directly benefit
local business and property owners.

Study shows crime perception
trumps reality in Rogers Park
24th District crime rate lower than most
other North Side districts
Crime is a popular topic of conversation
in Rogers Park. There is no doubt that crime
is impacting our community, but without a
frame of reference it becomes difficult to
know if it is really as bad as it seems.
DevCorp North recently conducted a brief
study on the recent rates of crime in Rogers
Park and made some interesting findings.
The easiest way to get a sense of the
level of crime is to compare the number of
crimes occurring between police districts.
To do this, DevCorp North examined crime
statistics in five contiguous police districts on
the north side of Chicago from January
through September, 2004. The columns
under the heading ‘Total Crime’ in the table
on page 9 demonstrate that the 24th Police
District, which includes all of Rogers Park,
had 3,952 incidences of crime. This is far
less than the police districts covering the
Near North and Lincoln Park area (18) with
6,528 incidences of crime and is comparable
to the police district covering parts of
Lakeview and Uptown (19) with 3,922 incidences.
Looking in more detail at arguably the
worst crimes, the 24th District had 6 homi-

Clark-Morse-Glenwood SSA
unveils pilot safety programs
New Rogers Park
Developments
Commissioners for the Clark, Morse and Glenwood SSA
#24 recently unveiled plan for two pilot projects aimed at
increasing safety in the bustling business districts.
One of the safety measures, discussed at
a November 9th meeting with more than 25
Special Service Area merchants, includes having a security company install cameras within
the SSA district. The security company that
the commissioners select will have a threemonth trial period to review the response to
the cameras and make recommendations
and/or adjustments to improve effectiveness.
The SSA also plans a three-month pilot project where off-duty Chicago police officers
patrol Clark, Morse and Glenwood. The SSA
will provide the funding for both projects and
these initiatives will be coordinated between
the 24th Police District, DevCorp North, and
the SSA commissioners.
At the meeting, the SSA also surveyed
merchants to prioritize their needs. The survey, available in Spanish, will allow the SSA
commissioners to be more effective in implementing the safety program.
Maryann Carrero, chair of the SSA commissioners, and Rene Camargo, community
development coordinator of DevCorp North,
also attend regular community policing meetings for Beat 2431, that includes parts of Clark
Street and the Morse/Glenwood area.
Camargo also attends monthly District
Advisory Committee meetings. This ensures
close
collaboration
between
the
business/property owners and residents in
addressing public safety concerns.
To better market the area as a great place
to shop, the commissioners suggested
installing light pole banners to identify the different commercial areas within the SSA.
Since each of the commercial streets has a different feel to it, the proposed banners will
seek to highlight their individual strengths
while tying them together as important
aspects of the Rogers Park community.
Similarly, the commissioners also discussed
the possibility of organizing a collective marketing campaign for merchants within the
SSA for the holiday season.
If you would like to participate in the discussion concerning SSA #24’s safety plan or
marketing efforts, and own commercial or residential property or a business within the
SSA, call Rene Camargo at (773) 508-5885,
ext. 5.

Façade Rebate Program now more attractive
for property owners
The City of Chicago is providing additional incentives for property owners to participate in the Façade Rebate Program. The
program provides rebates to property owners
to improve the appearance of buildings,
streets and businesses. Funding is available for
both commercial and industrial property owners who are willing to complete qualified
façade rehabilitation projects.
The City offers two programs: the
Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) Façade Rebate Program and the
Corporate Façade Rebate Program. The
CDBG program is federally funded and available for commercial and industrial properties
located within low to moderate-income census
tracts. The CDBG program excludes Small
Business Improvement Fund program areas
and Central Business District areas.
2
WINTER 2004
devcorp north journal
The Corporate program is city-funded
and is available for areas that are not low to
moderate-income, but are within a delegate
agency’s service area. Since DevCorp North is
a delegate agency for the Dept. of Planning
and Development, any property located in
Rogers Park and portions of West Ridge from
Ridge Boulevard to Western Avenue, between
Howard Street and Devon Avenue, qualifies
for one of these programs.
The City is now offering the following
new incentives:
• The CDBG Façade Rebate amount has been
increased from 50% to 75% of the total eligible costs for commercial properties up to a
total rebate of $40,000.

DevCorp North keeps moving
forward, along with Rogers Park
By Kimberly Bares
This issue is chock-full of stories, photos
and advertising. That last one -- advertising - is not something that is ordinarily stressed
to readers, and I
hope you’ll forgive
From the
me for bringing it
to your attention. I
Executive Director
mention it because
it demonstrates in
a very tangible way the growing readership
and interest in DevCorp North’s quarterly
newsletter, Journal.
In the beginning when we started publishing Journal, we had to beg, plead and
cajole people to support the publication.
Now we have to turn folks away. It’s a good
problem to have (like the one where you
have more people at a meeting than you
have chairs), so I’m not complaining!
Something else tells me that DevCorp
North is moving in the right direction and
gaining more respect: We were recently presented the Citizen of the Year award by the
Rogers Park Community Council (RPCC), a
local community organization founded in
1952 to work on improving Rogers Park. As
4
WINTER 2004
devcorp north journal
Cary Steinbuck, executive director of RPCC
said, "It’s clear that DevCorp North has
worked extremely hard the past several
years and the organization deserves to be
recognized for its accomplishments."
What we at DevCorp North often forget
to do is to take a moment and tell our supporters about all the great things we’re working on. We’re committed to better communication, and this issue marks that new change.
In this issue, you’ll read about how we’re
supporting public safety efforts for residents
and business owners alike through CAPS
meetings with the new 24th District
Commander, and public safety initiatives in
our Special Service Areas that involve security cameras and private security patrols.
We know that people shop where they
feel safe. Although we haven’t been deputized by the sheriff, we’ll do all that we can to
make Rogers Park a safer place. You’ll also
read about a new analysis of crime statistics
that our former intern (now full-time
employee) Daniel Butt has begun. If we want
to improve public safety, we need to know
what’s happening with actual crime so that
we can strategically deploy our resources.
In this issue, we also update you on the
Commercial District Corridor planning project, which involves Northeastern Illinois
Planning Council, University of Illinois and
Northwestern University as important partners. In addition, DevCorp North has just
initiated another community development
process regarding the Devon-Sheridan Tax
Increment Financing district design guidelines. We’ve pulled together a 20-plus member committee, hired a design consultant,
and are busy working on ways to shape
future development in the district to meet
the needs of the communities of Edgewater
and Rogers Park.
There are a lot of new developments on
Morse Avenue – see the article devoted to
the street in this issue! And, what would a
holiday newsletter be without an article dedicated to all the ways you and your money
can be parted? Let them know you love
them and Rogers Park by shopping in the
neighborhood. It’s a win-win situation!
Happy holidays, happy shopping and
happy reading!
Washington Mutual
Bank opens on Morse
Washington Mutual Bank opened a spiffy new branch in late
November at 1425 W. Morse.
The branch occupies the corner of the old Osco building. The
new branch bank with its cheery windows brightens Morse Avenue
and is a welcome addition to an area that is seeing more development coming its way.
Family Dollar expects to open a 10,000-foot store in the back
half of the old Osco building in January 2005.
Plus, a DMC Furniture store recently opened at 6950 N.
Glenwood, just north of Morse Avenue. It features new furniture at
low prices in an inviting storefront.
Be sure to look for a newly designed interior of Rogers Park
Florist soon. The shop at 1415 W. Morse is one of the businesses that
will benefit from a redesign under the Rogers Park Windows Project.
Spearheaded by DevCorp North and the School of the Art Institute
of Chicago, the project aims to redecorate local businesses in the
Howard Street and Clark/Morse/Glenwood Special Service Area
(SSA) districts.
The Rogers Park Windows Project will improve the look,
enhance the identity, and ultimately improve the economic viability
of several of Rogers Park’s commercial corridors through the visual
arts. This will be accomplished by redesigning the interiors of participating stores, as well as their window displays.

Howard Street SSA
This year, SSA #19 collaborated with
SSA # 24 (Clark-Morse-Glenwood) and the
School of the Art Institute of Chicago’s
Department of Interior Architecture to
develop the Rogers Park Windows Project.
Through this innovative program, interior
architecture students worked with selected
businesses to redecorate their stores. The
goal of the project is to enhance the identity
and improve the look of the businesses along
the Howard Street corridor and ultimately,
improve the look of the street.
The two SSAs are providing scholarships to the stores to cover the costs of supplies and pay student interns to implement
the designs. SSA #19 plans to continue this
program in 2005, giving more stores the
opportunity to get a nice spruce up!
Another new program being introduced
in 2005 is the Shoppers Rebate Program.
This program will provide shoppers a rebate
on their purchases when they spend a certain
amount of money within the SSA #19 district, and has been used successfully in other
Special Service Areas around the city, such
as the Lakeview East Chamber of
Commerce’s SSA #8 . This amount will be
determined soon as the SSA further develops the program. The Shoppers Rebate
8
WINTER 2004
devcorp north journal
continued from first page
Program is being established to encourage
customers to support local businesses and
discover the great items that you can get on
Howard Street and the surrounding area.
Safety on Howard Street has greatly
improved over the years, but there is still a
concern about crime that business owners
are struggling to overcome. In order to assist
businesses in deterring crime on the street,
the SSA is creating a Security Camera
Rebate Program. This program will provide
a rebate to business owners who purchase
cameras for their stores. In addition, the SSA
is currently investigating the costs of placing
cameras along Howard Street between
Greenview Avenue and the El station.
This will allow business owners, DevCorp North and the
24th Police District to
monitor the activity
along the street.
As the Special
Service Area continues its efforts to redevelop the Howard
Street business corridor, the commissioners want to recognize
that the SSA is supported by local tax dollars. It is important that individual business
and property owners have the opportunity to
directly benefit from these funds.
The SSA is continuously looking for
input and suggestions. Contact Joanna
Trotter, commercial district planner for
DevCorp North, at (773) 508-5885, x2 with
any comments, questions or concerns, or,
you can attend any of the four meetings that
the commissioners will hold in 2005. They
will be held at Jamaica Jerk Restaurant (1631
W. Howard) from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m. on these
Wednesdays: Feb. 16; May 18; Aug. 17, and
Nov. 16.
Crime perception trumps reality
cides and 27 cases of sexual assault, very
much on the same level as Police District 18
and 19 (7 homicides, 24 sexual assaults and
2 homicides, 27 sexual assaults respectively).
The problem with this comparison is
that it doesn’t account for the fact that Rogers
Park’s police district has over 40,000 more
people than the 18th District and 44,000
more people than the 19th District. The last
column in the table accounts for this difference. It shows that if you took 1,000 people
at random from each of these police districts,
26 people in Rogers Park would be affected
by some type of crime, while 59 people in
Lincoln Park would be affected, more than
twice as many. It reveals that Rogers Park,
given its higher population, has less crime
per person than the 24 other police districts
except Police District 20.
Another strategy for comparison is to
project the level of crime a police district
might have, given its population. In the table,
the ‘City Projected’
column estimates the
crime for each district if all of crime in
Chicago were spread
evenly
between
police districts, based
on the population of
each
district.
Similarly,
the
‘Northside Projected’
column represents
averaging the crime
continued from first page
for Police Districts 18, 19, 20, 23 and 24
among these five districts, again based on
population.
Interestingly, the police district covering
Rogers Park is below both of the total projections for crime. This provides another way of
looking at the level of crime in Rogers Park.
It doesn’t discount that crime is occurring in
Rogers Park, but gives us all some perspective on the extent of the problem.
The reality is that Rogers Park has very
comparable rates of crime to other North
Side communities, but often suffers from a
worse perception of crime. Perception is
therefore something that should be considered at the same time as we continue to combat crime. Does crime in Rogers Park get
more attention than in other communities?
What can the community do to prevent perpetuating the overly negative perception of
crime? The next time you read about a
crime in Rogers Park, keep this information
in mind.

downstairs at Morseland to pick up a gift certificate for that choosy relative.
For those who love history, check out
Lost Eras Antiques (1511 W. Howard) or
Lakeside Treasures (7110 N. Sheridan Road).
You will be surprised at the large selections.
The Rogers Park/West Ridge Historical
Society (7344 N. Western) is selling copies of
their two books–Chicago’s Far North Side and
Neighborhoods Within Neighborhoods. Each
would make a great gift for the history buff in
your family.
For something a little different, visit
Sheridan Road. Start at the Granada Center
with art supplies at Utrecht (6429 N.
Sheridan). If you need something for a
novice or experienced artist, you will find it
at Utrecht. They also have a knowledgeable
staff to help you make your selection. Right
next door is trendy and hip clothing that’s
either new or used at Ragstock (6431 N.
Sheridan). This is the perfect store to visit if
you have teenagers on your list.

your college student, this is the place for you.
For the latest styles of shoes and accessories,
go a few more blocks north to Marvelous
Shoes (7011 N. Sheridan), or if you are in the
market for athletic shoes and accessories,
visit P & J Footwear Company (1623 W.
Howard). The kids will love a new bicycle,
so stop at Roberts Cycle (7054 N. Clark
Street). They offer great deals in the winter
so your kids can have fun in the spring.
Lifeline Theatre (7006 N. Glenwood)
offers gift certificates for a specific performance, or dollar amount. You decide how
generous you want to be.
If you’re heading out to visit family and
friends, don’t forget to order a fruit basket
from the Rogers Park Fruit Market (7401 N.
Clark). Size and cost varies depending on
your specifications. And remember to stop
at the Caribbean American Baking
Company (1539 W. Howard) for a box of
Jamaican meat pies.
Why leave Rogers Park for your holiday shopping when there is so much to offer
right here?
Façade Rebate
continued from page 2
• The CDBG Façade Rebate amount has
been increased from 30% to 50% of the
total eligible costs for industrial properties
up to a total rebate of $40,000.
• The Corporate Façade Rebate Program
now has been expanded citywide from a
few pilot areas and offers a rebate of 30%
up to a total project rebate of $24,000.
• The "per storefront" or "per industrial unit"
price caps have been removed. Previously,
the CDBG program provided a rebate for
up to $5,000 per tenant space. Now, the
program will rebate the total project cost
limit, regardless of the number of commercial or industrial spaces within the property.
