City Manager Wally Bobkiewicz says that among Ferraro’s many accomplishments with the city was her key role in the relocation and construction of the Levy Center “as well as the creation of our outstanding senior services program we enjoy today.” She led planning efforts with the Age Friendly Evanston Task Force.
“Christina’s dedication to the residents of Evanston is unmatched. Her leadership, good humor and resident focus will be greatly missed,” Bobkiewicz added.
