Michigan avenue homeowners form group to oppose through traffic plan
Residents along Michigan avenue in Wilmette organized the Michigan Avenue Property Owners Association to oppose a plan designating Michigan avenue as a through north south traffic route. Officers include Myles J. Phillips chair and Robert E. Rickson vice chair with others named as directors and officers. The group argues Sheridan road already handles through traffic and diverting it to residential Michigan avenue would harm property values and waste taxpayer money. The Village board had revoked the major street plan ordinance and regulators plan further action.
