Understanding the Impact of COVID-19 on Chicagoland Communities Thu., August 06, 2020 | 9:30 AM — 11:00 AM Zoom Webinar 1307 E. 60th Street Chicago, IL 60637 United States Sponsored By: Metropolitan Planning Council & UIC Public Administration College of Urban Planning & Public Affairs COVID-19 has been a traumatic and revealing experience for everyone, but in drastically different ways from one community to another. In some, death and unemployment are all too real. In others, the economic slowdown has crippled needed tax revenue for providing government services now and into the future. Race, income inequality, and underlying tax policy play a big part in determining what kind of experience has played out where. This event will explore those dynamics through stories directly from current and former mayors from throughout Northeastern Illinois.
