Those qualifying had to be at least 18 and living in the city between 1919 and 1969

Dimm math at work here. The youngest that anyone who lived between these years can be is 53 or 54 years old. Was the "at least 18" necessary?

Perhaps they're justifying it on segregation. A slippery slope. I thought it was supposedly about slavery.

I read it and my math comes out differently. The youngest person to qualify had to be at least 18, that is a legal adult, in 1969, therefore born in 1951. So that would make the youngest 72 or so. How to prove you were living in Evanston in 1969 might be a bit tricky.

If they had to be at least 18 in 1969, they’d be no younger than 72 now....
