Chicago City Charter Chat

Strong Towns Chicago

This meetup is a casual discussion focusing on Chicago's lack of a city charter and what that means for us as residents. We’ll discuss how the structure of city government shapes everyday outcomes like housing affordability, safer streets, transit investment and more. Rather than treating a charter as an abstract concept, we’ll focus on how the rules of the city (or the absence of them) influence how decisions get made at both the city and neighborhood level.
