As in prior years, this $487 million budget was developed with care and rigor and rooted in the Park District’s core values. We remain focused on putting children first, offering the best deal in town, supporting a capital campaign that is “built to last” and providing a staff that always makes the extra effort. The 2020 budget includes the expansion of programming, as well as new opportunities for Chicagoans. Those range from: the creation of new teen summer employment opportunities; increasing after-school programming; introducing new youth sports programming; and opening world class athletic and recreation facilities on the SUPERINTENDENT LETTER south and west sides (Gately Park Track & Field and Addams Park, respectively). This coming year’s budget is an estimated $23.6 million increase over the FY2019 adopted budget. When excluding the internal reimbursements of $4.9 million, the recommended plan is roughly a 5% increase over the 2019 budget. Through continued staff right sizing and resource allocation, the Park District will decrease the number of full-time equivalent positions from 2019, but that will not prevent us from serving the needs of each community. In addition, families in need will still have access to more than $3 million in financial assistance and as always, no child will be turned away from a program for an inability to pay. This budget positions us to stay on our path to expand in a fiscally responsible manner. At $324 million, property taxes and personal property replacement tax make up the majority (67%) of Chicago Park District revenues. The Park District will implement a nominal property tax increase in 2020 that will cost the average homeowner $3.99. This increase is necessary for the financial well-being and stability of our parks. In 2020, we anticipate an increase in TIF funds received from the city that will go directly toward funding the pension obligation, which will start a multi-year payment ramp up that will help stabilize the health of the pension fund. Revenue growth will also come in the form of an increase in permit revenue with the Chicago Fire’s return to Soldier Field. In 2020, program fees will not increase, remaining the same as Fall 2019 fees. This past year was momentous for the Park District having celebrated our 85th anniversary and having reached a new accord with our labor partners. This coming year’s budget calls for wage increases for staff, where the lowest paid staff members will see the greatest increase, as part of the new contract. The new labor agreements demonstrate passion for the work and mutual respect among park staff. That collegial rapport with labor partners continues, as the conversation on the Park District pension evolves and we work toward a sustainable solution. As a team we are driven to serve all Chicagoans. Chicago’s parks are the glue that binds our neighborhoods. I am honored to work alongside the very best park professionals in America, and I look forward to continuing to serve all Chicagoans. Thank you for the privilege to serve. Sincerely, Michael P. Kelly General Superintendent & CEO Chicago Park District 3 CHICAGO PARK DISTRICT | 2020 BUDGET SUMMARY ORGANIZATION CHART ORGANIZATION CHICAGO PARK DISTRICT | 2020 BUDGET SUMMARY 4 ORGANIZATION CHART ORGANIZATION 5 CHICAGO PARK DISTRICT | 2020 BUDGET SUMMARY 2020 BUDGET SUMMARY SECTION I CHICAGO PARK DISTRICT PROFILE City of Chicago Demographics The City of Chicago sits at the confluence of Lake Michigan with two rivers, the Chicago and Calumet.

The project, Jensen's only opportunity to create an entirely new large park in Chicago, represents the culmination of years of his conservation efforts and design experimentation. Appointed as West Park Commission General Superintendent and Chief Landscape Architect in 1905, Jensen re-designed Humboldt, Garfield, and Douglas Parks and began creating small parks such as Eckhart and Dvorak. After losing political support in 1910, he shifted his role to consulting landscape architect. Two years later, the commissioners acquired 144 acres of farmland at the western boundary of Chicago. They named the new park for Christopher Columbus (c. 1451-1506), the famous Italian explorer who "discovered" America while in the service of Spain. Jensen's vision for Columbus Park was inspired by the unimproved site's natural history and topography. Convinced that it was an ancient beach, Jensen designed a series of berms, like glacial ridges, encircling the flat interior part of the park.
