Still has 9 months left work to do his thing.<br /><br />We, and by "we" I mean the people of the 46th Ward, were and are lucky that he was elected.<br /><br />Had to wait for the economy to turn around 2017 or so, but the changes have been amazing. He deserves credit for much of that.<br /><br />If there was a better person to be alderman since 2011 I haven't met that person.<br /><br />The candidates he faced in the runoffs all had very different personal and/or political agenda. Some of them would be having their slackeys touting them as Mayoral candidates or candidates for other higher office while the other would be building her socialist utopia and calling for the abolition of contrary opinions.<br /><br />I'd also contribute to a sendoff present, but it needs to be legal, heartfelt, memorable and amusing. We're not barbarians from the 11th or 19th Wards--we're going to follow the law.<br /><br />https://www.chicago.gov/content/dam/city/depts/ethics/general/Publications/gifts.pdf<br /><br />Amazing thing is that with so much in the pipeline is that even after he's left office the improvements will keep happening.<br /><br />Now to consider appropriate and amusing going away gifts.<br /><br />IrishPiratehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11339255909419333238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1957537260422450632.post-27958996894052048652022-08-11T09:15:20.855-05:002022-08-11T09:15:20.855-05:00"..We can thank..." - absolutely.

There's plenty of vacant office space around Uptown for them to move into.<br /><br />Where will folks in that section of Buena Park get their liquor and Chinese food now?<br /><br />It's a rhetorical question. Uptown doesn't lack liquor sellers or Chinese take out joints. We do need more market rate residential.<br /><br />Lots of great progress in Uptown over the last few years.<br /><br />We can thank our departing alderman for that.<br /><br />If the next alderperson is half as good we'll be lucky.IrishPiratehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11339255909419333238noreply@blogger.com
