Lincoln Yards Community Advisory Council Application

The Lincoln Yards Community Advisory Council (CAC) will provide regular and consistent opportunities for engagement between the City, community stakeholders, and developers on the Lincoln Yards project. The CAC will serve as a community conduit for project input through regular meetings with the City and Sterling Bay. For example, the CAC will advise on the impact of construction, open space community needs, pedestrian/alternative modes of transportation, affordable housing, and local connections to arts and culture, among other issues. The CAC will meet quarterly and serve as an advisory committee for at least three years.

The City hopes to identify CAC members from communities adjacent to the development, such as Bucktown, Lincoln Park, and wards 2, 43, and 32. Additionally, we are seeking experts on City design and investment.

Roles and responsibilities include:

Receive quarterly updates which will include phasing plans of the project as they are approved
