Hi, We are having a tree in our backyard removed next week. The tree has grown into the back fence, so we will need to have at least one section of our back fence repaired after the tree work is completed. Please contact me with fence contractor recommendations. Thanks,Kathleen

about 5 G in Highland park - inspector answer / next step
by Christine Frechard 01 Dec '21

01 Dec '21

Hello neighbors, I am following up with the 5G towers installed in Highland park without any concertation with the neighborhood. This morning I called 311 to see what the inspector's answer was about the 5G case in our neighborhood. The answer was very deceiving: * the inspector said that there is no VIOLATION. But the noise is still a nuisance as well as the frequency coming out of it.* This is not a satisfactory answer and I was suggested to contact the Federal communication commission. If this is something you are concerned about, I invite you to write a complaint on their website:* https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov <https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov>* Thank you for your help and support. Best Christine

Highland Park: St. Andrew’s this Sunday
by Becky Marinov 01 Dec '21

01 Dec '21

Hello neighbors. St. Nicholas will be visiting the lawn of St. Andrew’s Church on Sunday afternoon at 4:00. He will share his story with children of all ages and be available for photos after. The Syrian Highlander bagpipes will also be back and playing on the lawn. This event is free and open to everyone. We will also be collecting new white crew socks for children and teenagers in Uganda. At 5:00 everyone is welcome to come into the Church for a choral evensong and recital. We are asking everyone who comes inside to please wear a mask regardless of vaccination status. St. Andrew’s is located at 5801 Hampton St. All are welcome and we would love to see you there.

HPCC - response to anti-Semitic crime & commitment to community
by Highland Park Community Council 01 Dec '21

01 Dec '21

With a heavy heart - and an angry one - I’m writing about an anti-Semitic crime here in Highland Park. On Monday night, the second night of Hanukkah, a swastika was painted on someone’s home and their car windshield was smashed. One of the things I love most about our neighborhood is that it’s small enough that we really feel like a community. The HPCC is committed to making our neighborhood welcoming to all. We hope that everyone will join us in this mission. Please speak out against acts of hate and words of intolerance. But also, let’s go one step further and commit to living with our neighbors in peace. Period. It doesn’t matter which faith people believe in (or if they don’t subscribe to one), the color of their skin, their sexual preference, their gender identification, their age, their abilitities, their political affiliation, or their ethnicity. It doesn’t matter if we think they’re cranky, loud, or don’t keep up their yard. We are all neighbors: working, caring for family, and struggling to pay bills, and keep healthy, and not lose our minds in this crazy world. We are all coping, whether it’s with stress, loss, anxiety, depression, loneliness or fear. We are all just trying to get by. Together, we can make a difference, starting by being neighborly. In this season of holidays - Hanukkah, Winter Solstice, Christmas, Kwanzaa - we want you all to know peace and joy, safety and comfort, in your homes, our community, and in this great, wide world.
