Introduction

Principles
  1. Redlining refers to the now illegal practice of refusing to provide loans or other financial services in neighborhoods&nbsp;with certain demographic characteristics, such as having a high proportion of residents or business owners of color.&nbsp;The practice derives its name from maps developed by the federal Home Owners Loan Corporation in the 1930s,&nbsp;which outlined high minority or low income areas in red. For several decades, these maps were used by the Federal&nbsp;Housing Administration as well as banks and lending institutions to determine loan eligibility, effectively segregating neighborhoods and limiting access to wealth for minorities. For more information, see: Encyclopedia of Chicago, “Redlining”,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.encyclopedia.chicagohistory.org/pages/1050.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://www.encyclopedia.chicagohistory.org/pages/1050.html</a> Back

  5. There are three primary classes of truck routes in Illinois: Class I, Class II, and Locally Preferred Truck Routes. Class I and Class II truck routes are associated with certain restrictions on the size and weight of trucks, allowing access to trucks with 53-foot trailers or containers. Class I truck routes generally consist of the expressway system, but also have the effect of permitting truck access to streets within a mile of an expressway interchange (unless otherwise restricted). Class II routes include major state highways as well as local roads that have been designated by local ordinance as a truck route. Finally, Locally Preferred Truck Routes include only truck routes administratively identified by local governments and are not considered a designated truck route; they have no effect on permitted truck size and weight. Illinois also has Class III truck routes, but the legal effect of these has been made mostly moot by recent legislation increasing legal loads to 80,000 pounds (PA 96-0034 and PA 96-0037). Back
