ComEd is seeking support from community leaders and business owners to plan a major overhaul in its electrical delivery system. The company says the century old system is in need of critical reform. Last week, ComEd hosted an informational event about the renovated grid in conjunction with the Chatham Business Association (CBA) and Cosmopolitan Chamber of Commerce at the QBG Foundation, 806 E. 78th Street. The event allowed the company to meet with community leaders and business owners to help inform the public of the proposed new grid. Attending the meeting from left to right were: Angel Perez (ComEd); Bill Garth (Citizen); Larissa Tyler (QBG); Bonita Paker (ComEd); Melinda Kelly (CBA); John Hooker (ComEd); Joe Caldwell (CBA); John Steinbreaker (Best Buy); Carnice Carey and Leon Pass (Cosmopolitan Chamber of Commerce.)
