Is there anyone that knows how to get a group of people together and go around town and remove graffiti from gangs ?
If we can do that and keep doing that,gangs will pack up and move to another town.
We need to take back streator
From the gangs .

Where’s the gang graffiti at? I actually think the homegrown Streatorites that bring a block of homes value down by making theirs look like trash, garbage, junk cars, etc. are more of a detriment to the town than gang graffiti. I don’t see a ton of that. I do see a ton of scummy houses in town.

People have the right to live the way they want.
You don't like the way people's houses look,then move to a rich neighborhood
That has a hoa and be happy.
I'm not fixing up my home just so your house can be worth more and causing me to pay more in taxes.

I don’t see a ton of that. I do see a ton of scummy houses in town. Then move,or kindly help people pay to fix up there homes. I did move. Income has nothing to do with trashing a house and yard. It’s also not hard to junk a car locally and get rid of inoperable vehicles. No sense letting them sit there until weeds become trees around them. The grants the City offers aren’t a scam either. I applied for one on behalf of a relative a few years back. She was approved and it really helped out with the repairs and upgrades the house needed. At the time of that particular grant, I was told by many at City Hall that not too many people even applied for it. |

Her page says, “UPDATE: WE STILL NEED 40 RESIDENTS TO SEND THEIR NAME AND ADDRESS TO streatorgrant@gmail.com to apply for the housing rehabilitation grant. BY FRIDAY 9/29/23. The names and addresses are just being collected at this time to send out surveys. There will be a public meeting in the future. But we need to get 75 total residents.” The application process is much more than replying with your name and address. I hope you follow through once the meeting is announced and then get all of the required documents filled out and turned in. |

don't do anything to help yourself then. I would go talk to someone and see what is available. there are so many grants available to people with less than $35,000 dollars of income if you contact the USDA in Ottawa Illinois. They were taking applications too for home repair last month in LaSalle County. you didn't have to pay it back either.

Rocket, you are not understanding the chart. You ARE low income. You make less than 50% of the median annual income. Go ahead and do nothing. Just assume that you are right (which you are not) and miss out on furthering the process. I swear. You like to complain and not do the homework it takes to better yourself. We will be here to remind you that there was help, but you are too stubborn to ask questions and get the facts. |
