William W. Towns is a scholar-activist and practioner dedicated to solving civic and urban issues at the systemic level. Having been born on the south side of Chicago, William quickly became aware of the dysfunctions within the civic and urban systematic structures when he moved to the north side of the city at the age of seven. Curious how two sides of the same city could have such stark differences, with respect to amenities and services, William became committed to understanding why these inconsistencies prevail.
“Will is a highly respected and transparent leader who fosters teamwork and consensus without losing sight of the big picture. As a leader, he is honest, fair and operates with the highest level of integrity in all that he does”
