Wheeling Residents Will March To Village President, Delivering A Lettering Pleading To Stay and Not Be Displaced
WHEELING, IL – Father Jose Landaverde of Our Lady of Guadalupe Anglican Mission and trailer home residents spearheaded a fast and camp out that took place last evening, extending to the early morning. Participants included children and adults.
For several months now residents of Fox Point trailer homes have been harassed for alleged damage to their homes this past April from a severe storm.
On Thursday afternoon, residents and children will march from the mobile complex to Village Hall delivering a letter to Village president Dean Argiriz demanding he not destroy their homes for economic development and for residents to stay in their Wheeling mobile homes. After delivering the letter residents will hold a Press Conference at 2 Community Boulevard Wheeling, IL 60090.
