Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced the members of a grocery store task force that will work to find new owners for stores left vacant after Safeway closes all Dominick's stores in the Chicago-area Dec. 28.
The task force will work with building representatives, gather local market data, find and approach likely prospects in the food industry as well as host tours, create marketing materials and engage brokers.
It will also work to ensure the availability of fresh food and produce and support workers who are affected by the store closings.
