Anti-Illiana Position Helped Elect Lowell’s John Alessia Jr. To Council
Filed Under Illiana Expressway, John Alessia Jr, Lowell
Opposition to the proposed Illiana Expressway helped propel Lowell town councilman John Alessia, Jr. into office, reports the Post-Tribune.
“One of the big things I will be addressing is the Illiana Toll Road,” Alessia said of his goals for his first term in office. He said he is against a proposal to build a toll road coming through Lowell.
“We (Lowell residents) should have some say. An overwhelming majority are against it,” he said.
