That can't possibly be the correct address. I believe it's on the 4900 block of Oakton Street.
Jennifer Fisher (Editor) June 12, 2013 at 05:33 pm
V.S. You're right, the address doesn't seem correct. 1647 Oakton St. was posted on a sign in the…Read More window, but we'll track down the right one.
Katie Gudgel June 14, 2013 at 01:12 pm
Ms Hannah Lutz - I would also appreciate it if you would not continuously re-post this unless you…Read More have some new information.

I encourage anyone to voice your opinions on the budget items. I did email the Village trustees,…Read More Mayor and Manager regarding the purchase of the "mobile police station" aka expensive RV. I've never received a response. Does anyone know the details about the new housing being built at Brown and Cleveland? We have funds to build new housing in these economic times? Sounds like the Village should spend money on IT instead of new housing. Just more evidence that this Village Administration is outdated!

How can something be built at Brown & Cleveland ? Both run east and west, not meeting each…Read More other. What about old Police Station at Main and Laramie ? No mention of that recently. Noticed item concerning Human Services Division having to possibly vacate current location on Galitz. Why not use old police station for it ? Better parking there, and plenty of space.
Katie Gudgel June 17, 2013 at 08:24 am
Bob - the development is planned for Floral Ave but spans the distance from Brown all the way to…Read More Cleveland.
Regarding Human Services moving - have you written to the Village to suggest that they consider the old police station?
Patch reinstates deleted accounts! June 12, 2013 at 02:22 pm
Am I missing something, or are there no details here? Timeframe? Anything?
Jennifer Fisher (Editor) June 12, 2013 at 05:34 pm
We'll follow up with more details tomorrow when we're able to reach someone at Duffy's.

Love it! Sweety Pies is a GEM in Downtown Skokie. Probably the best place there to sit, relax and…Read More have a treat and coffee. The atmosphere is lovely warm and inviting. Perfect for a sunny day or a cold winter day inside. Oh yes and the Cupcakes are to die for.

Steve - Evanston has a gangwar problem going back to Sept. 2012. There have been 3 or 4 young…Read More people murdered by guns related this gangwar. You can probably google or look up the article in the Patch. One mother of a teen victim went to Washington with Jan Schowsky on the gun control bill. There was a gun buy-back program last fall in Evanston with some success. Evanston is not a save place at night. These thugs travel to Skokie, which why the shooting happened at Old Orchard Mall. There were apparently several gang members at the carnival. It was a planned incident not random.

R.Hopf - I actually agree with you for the most part, but Skokie does not have controll over the…Read More Section 8 (landlords have the control). I am more discussed at the landlords who don't screen their tenants. This has been going on all over the country that landlords rent to Section 8 because it is guaranteed rent. I don't think you are being fair to NN. The troublemakers at NN get sent to one of the 3 alternative schools in Skokie. There are security officers on duty at all times. Where is a good place to send your child to school these days? Maybe a private school if I could afford $24k/yr tuition. Do you think I can get a voucher to send by child to one of these schools? I don't think so. I also don't think it is safe anywhere these days. I wouldn't open my door to a stranger if I lived in ANY suburb. I'm from a small town in Illiniois that has a population of 1100 and everyone locks their doors and don't open it to any strangers.

source - http://www.city-data.com/crime/crime-Skokie-Illinois.html , if one looks at the actual…Read More statistics, crime has dropped in Skokie over the last 15 years. The perception that crime is worse has to do with the media sensationalizing news in order to get ratings. Based on the statistics from the above site, it is safer now to walk your dog at 4:00 AM than it was in 1999.
Patch changes User names! June 11, 2013 at 09:55 pm
Are you referring to e-mails when comments are made on an article you've commented on? If so, I've…Read More been receiving e-mails.
I have a comment on Patch's Support: I fully understand that there must be a lot going on when doing a new format. However, I sent a message to Patch Support (@patch.zendesk.com) on 6/2/13 @ Noon. I immediately received an automated e-mail confirmation of my message saying "Your request has been received, and is being reviewed by our support staff. We will respond to your request as soon as possible." That's the last I've heard. I just checked the status of my request and it still says "This request is awaiting assignment to a support agent.".
2 parts of my request were that Patch reinstated a previously-deleted account, and changed my user name on a current account. (Hence, my now-changed -- by ME!! -- user name.)
One time I had good results with Support; they deleted a photo in a day or so. The next time, after 2 follow-ups with no response, I requested my account be deleted. That part they did promptly. Oddly, that is the very account that is active again.
Losing confidence when there isn't IT support. Or, if there really IS support, not getting a reply...

Hi Patch changes User names - the function that I am "missing" is to follow comments when…Read More you haven't commented yourself. I do received notifications of new comments on articles that I post (like this one) and to ones which I have made comments. But why should I have to make a comment just to be able to receive notifications when the article has been updated of someone has made a comment. Sometimes I want to be part of the discussion and will comment - but some of the time I would like to just "observe" (and perhaps later will make a comment). With the previous version I could do that.
shp June 12, 2013 at 08:50 am
I agree that email notifications on comments and updated articles should be restored. This is how…Read More the conversations get started and keeps the interest. You are losing readers by making it more difficult to comment and find comments. I see more people commenting on articles, but for awhile there was no one commenting. I had to email Patch to get my comments posted. Not everyone is going to do this.
V.S. June 11, 2013 at 08:59 am
I know there is construction on Oakton and the parade has to be rerouted, but who came up with this…Read More alternative route? Who wants to sit under an overpass? There is not much room on that stretch of Skokie Blvd. to put the amount of people who attend the parade. Sorry to miss the parade this year. See you next year.
R. Hof June 11, 2013 at 04:23 pm
I agree completely. Read my board on what Skokie wants to do making it mandatory for landlords to…Read More let Section 8 people rent in their buildings. YES we need more police 6???? kind of a joke. Will these 6 be patroling the whole area between Oakton/Skokie Blvd and Golf/Skokie Blvd al day and night? Because, that is what it will take to stop the new gangs or singular thugs from knowcking over the poor old [people to get 25 cents from their wallet!
