Cicero Finances Continue to Improve
When Larry Dominick
assumed the presidency of
the Town of Cicero in 2005,
the Town was saddled with
outstanding indebtedness
of $148.1 million, equal
to a debt obligation of
$1,765.68 per Cicero
resident, according to the
Town of Cicero Finance
Department Director Don
Schultz. At the end of
2014 President Dominick
has reduced this debt by 42
percent, to $85.9 million,
or $1,024.25 per Cicero

President
Dominick’s
present term in 2017, total
outstanding debt will be
reduced by 53.4 percent to
$69 million, or $823.03 per
resident.
By the end of 2021,
total indebtedness will be
reduced by 78 percent to
$32.4 million, or $386.69

House on Mango Street Opens at Chicago Premiere of Latino Art
National Museum of Mexican Art Beats Latest Film, “The Dance”
By: Ashmar Mandou
Scores of people lined
up to meet award-winning
novelist and Chicagonative Sandra Cisneros
on Friday, April 17th as
the doors of the National
Museum of Mexican Art
in the Pilsen neighborhood
opened to showcase
its latest exhibition,
The House on Mango
Street: Artists Interpret
Community. It was the first
time Cisneros as worked
with an art organization
to bring her acclaimed hit
to life.
“I would not be here
if it hadn’t been for
public institutions like
the museum and like
the library. We need art
to nourish our heart if
we’re afraid, or if we’re
angry, or if we’re moving
through situations that are
violent and destroying
our spirit. Art is a way
of transforming that
darkness and composting
it into light.” said Sandra
Cisneros.
The House on Mango
Community is now open
to the general public and
will run through August
23rd. Admission is free.

“No estaría aquí si no fuera por instituciones
públicas como el museo y la biblioteca. Necesitamos el
arte para nutrir nuestro corazón si tenemos miedo, o si
estamos enojados, o si estamos pasando por situaciones
violentas que destruyen nuestro espíritu. El arte es una
forma de transformar esa oscuridad y convertirla en luz”.
Dijo Sandra Cisneros.
