LIGHTFOOT 2020 BUDGET OVERVIEW LETTER FROM THE MAYOR My Fellow Chicagoans, It is an honor to share with you the City of Chicago budget for fiscal year 2020. This $11.65 billion budget is more than just an investment in our city’s future, it is a values statement on who we are and the kind of city we want to be. When I came into office, Chicago was facing a budget deficit of nearly $1 billion, and included the largest one- year increase to the City-required pension contribution in recent history. Despite these challenges, my team and I were determined to create a budget that looked beyond one-time fixes and provides long-term structural solutions. This budget also reflects our commitment to growing our investments in key areas, including violence prevention, neighborhood development, affordable housing, homelessness, and mental health. We developed this budget line-by-line, identifying millions of dollars in departmental savings and efficiencies to ensure we are making the best use of taxpayer’s dollars. This budget was also created with an unprecedented level of community engagement, which included an online budget survey and five neighborhood town halls to help identify impactful solutions and lasting reforms. Among its many measures, this budget improves the City’s revenue collection procedures, creates savings through debt refunding, and terminates costly unused lines of credit to avoid paying expensive bank fees. And we called on our department leaders to tighten their belts without significantly impacting services. To restore equity to the budget, we crafted a responsible spending plan that responds to the needs of our most vulnerable communities, reflecting our belief that everyone deserves a place to call their own and a fair chance to pursue their dreams. Every aspect of this budget—from reforms and investments to revenues and expenditures—seeks to ensure Chicago continues to deliver the services its residents depend on, while also expanding economic vitality, and strengthening our communities so families can grow. With our shared values of transparency, accountability, equity, and inclusion, our 2020 budget puts Chicago on a sustainable path towards a stable financial future, and provides investments that are vitally needed for our neighborhoods to thrive for generations to come. Sincerely, Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot 2020 BUDGET OVERVIEW CONTENTS Introduction ...................................................................................................................... 7 City Profile .................................................................................................................9 City of Chicago Organizational Chart .............................................................. 10 City Functions ...........................................................................................................11 Budget Process ..............................................................................................................13 Priorities and Strategies...............................................................................................17 Budget Overview .........................................................................................................29 Financial Summaries ....................................................................................................33 Local Fund Summary ...........................................................................................36 Corporate Fund ......................................................................................................37 Special Revenue Funds .......................................................................................44 Enterprise Funds ...................................................................................................47 Grant Funds ............................................................................................................48 Capital .....................................................................................................................49 Debt ..........................................................................................................................51 Pension ...................................................................................................................52 Other Funds ...........................................................................................................54 Tax Increment Financing ............................................................................ 54 Property Tax Levy .........................................................................................55 Program and Budget Summaries by Department ................................................57 Appendices ................................................................................................................... 171 Financial and Budgetary Policies ....................................................................173 Glossary .................................................................................................................176 Budget Detail ........................................................................................................183 INTRODUCTION 2020 BUDGET OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION CITY PROFILE EDISON N ROGERS PARK P ARK WEST RIDGE FOREST GLEN NORWOOD PARK EDGEWATER NORTH PARK JEFFERSON LINCOLN PARK SQUARE OHARE ALBANY PARK UPTOWN PORTAGE PARK IRVING PARK DUNNING NORTH CENTER LAKE VIEW AVONDALE MONTCLARE HERMOS BELMONT CRAGIN LOGAN SQUARE LINCOLN PARK A 2,705,988 total population; 1,077,886 households NEAR NORTH WEST TOWN SIDE HUMBOLDT PARK AUSTIN 228 square miles; 77 community areas WEST EAST 20 percent foreign-born; 35.8

    Chicago’s Evolving City Council Chicago City Council Report #9 June 17, 2015 – March 29, 2017 Authored By: Dick Simpson Maureen Heffern Ponicki Allyson Nolde Thomas J. Gradel University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Political Science May 17, 2017 2 Since Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the new Chicago City Council were sworn in two years ago, there have been 67 divided roll call votes or roughly three per month. A divided roll call vote is not unanimous because at least one or more aldermen votes against the mayor and his administration. The rate of divided roll call votes – twice the rate in Emanuel’s first four year term – combined with an increase in the number of aldermen voting against the mayor – are indications that the aldermen are becoming more independent. Clearly, the city council is less of a predictable “rubber stamp” than it was during Mayor Richard M. Daley’s 22 years and Emanuel’s first four year term from 2011-2015. However, this movement away from an absolute rubber stamp is small and city council is only glacially evolving. The increase in aldermanic independence is confirmed by a downward trend in the vote agreement with the mayor, with only five aldermen voting with him 100% of the time and another 22 voting with him 90%. The number of aldermen voting with the mayor less than 90% of the time on divided votes has risen to 23 over the last two years. Aldermen are also more willing to produce their own legislation and proposed solutions to critical city problems than in the past rather than wait for, or to clear their proposals with, the 5th floor.

  • From Rubber Stamp to a Divided City Council Chicago City Council Report #11 June 12, 2019 – April 24, 2020
    From Rubber Stamp to a Divided City Council Chicago City Council Report #11 June 12, 2019 – April 24, 2020 Authored By: Dick Simpson Marco Rosaire Rossi Thomas J. Gradel University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Political Science April 28, 2020 The Chicago Municipal Elections of 2019 sent earthquake-like tremors through the Chicago political landscape. The biggest shock waves caused a major upset in the race for Mayor. Chicago voters rejected Toni Preckwinkle, President of the Cook County Board President and Chair of the Cook County Democratic Party. Instead they overwhelmingly elected former federal prosecutor Lori Lightfoot to be their new Mayor. Lightfoot is a black lesbian woman and was a partner in a major downtown law firm. While Lightfoot had been appointed head of the Police Board, she had never previously run for any political office. More startling was the fact that Lightfoot received 74 % of the vote and won all 50 Chicago's wards. In the same elections, Chicago voters shook up and rearranged the Chicago City Council. seven incumbent Aldermen lost their seats in either the initial or run-off elections. A total of 12 new council members were victorious and were sworn in on May 20, 2019 along with the new Mayor. The new aldermen included five Socialists, five women, three African Americans, five Latinos, two council members who identified as LGBT, and one conservative Democrat who formally identified as an Independent. Before, the victory parties and swearing-in ceremonies were completed, politically interested members of the general public, politicians, and the news media began speculating about how the relationship between the new Mayor and the new city council would play out.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 5, 2021 CONTACT: Mayor’s Press Office 312.744.3334 [email protected] MAYOR LIGHTFOOT JOINS ALDERMAN JASON ERVIN, GARFIELD PARK RITE TO WELLNESS COLLABORATIVE MEMBERS, AND LOCAL RESIDENTS TO BREAK GROUND AT COMMUNITY PLAZA AND ROLLER RINK IN WEST GARFIELD PARK New Plaza represents City’s first major infrastructure investment under the Neighborhood Activation Initiative Chicago- Today, Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot joined Alderman Jason Ervin (28th Ward), City departments and agencies, and members of the Garfield Park Rite to Wellness Collaborative to break ground on a vacant lot that is being transformed into a new Community Plaza and Roller Rink in West Garfield Park as part of the Mayor’s new Neighborhood Activation initiative. Neighborhood Activation is a focused violence prevention and community investment initiative that combines community direction and aspirations and City services and assets to implement programs, social services, and changes to the built environment at a hyperlocal block level. "Neighborhood Activation serves as my administration's latest commitment to enhancing public safety and builds on our comprehensive summer safety strategy," said Mayor Lightfoot. "By making investments at the block level in communities that are facing high levels of violence, we are able to give our most vulnerable residents the resources they need to stay engaged and stay safe. Only by driving resources where they are needed most, with input from community members, can we truly eliminate the scourge of violence from our city." According to statistics, West Garfield Park ranks seven out of the top 15 neighborhoods experiencing gun violence, and from January 1 – May 31, 2021, West Garfield Park had the highest rate of fatal and non-fatal shootings relative to the population of all community areas in the city.
