Oak Forest to move farmers market to east side of Metra lot after council discussion
Summary
Following a council inquiry, City Administrator Moses Amidei said the farmers market will be moved to the east side of the Metra commuter lot (still on the west side of Cicero Avenue); City Clerk Nicole Tormey expressed safety concerns about Beggar's car show attendees crossing Cicero Avenue.
During new business at the June 9 meeting, Alderperson Keeler asked about relocating the farmers market to the east side of the Metra commuter lot. City Administrator Moses Amidei responded that the market will be moved to the east side of the parking lot while remaining on the west side of Cicero Avenue. City Clerk Nicole Tormey raised a safety concern that attendees of the Beggar's car show might try to cross Cicero Avenue to reach the market.
The minutes record the administrative decision to move the market's location and the stated safety concern but do not show a formal, recorded vote on the relocation; the matter appears to have been addressed administratively by staff.
