South Side church to host meeting on mayor's plan to house migrants in tents
CHICAGO (CBS) – A community will meet to address Mayor Brandon Johnson's proposal to move migrants into tents on the far South Side.
Shelton Heights Church will host the discussion at 6 p.m. on Wednesday night.
The mayor proposed setting up winterized tents for asylum seekers at several locations, including a parking lot across the street from the church at 115th and Halsted.
The mayor hopes the base camps will solve overcrowding issues with migrants living at Chicago police stations.
