Dear Friends,
As you know, after 24 years as alderman of the 46th ward, I am retiring. I am writing to express my appreciation for your support and hard work throughout the years as we worked together to improve the 46th ward.
We have come a long way. Together we have improved safety, we have created a lasting legacy of development without displacement, improved our schools, our infrastructure and our parks, and most importantly together we have created a socially and economically vibrant and diverse community. I am most proud of my achievements in tripling the City's funding budget for HIV/AIDS victims and for developing the toughest stance on Apartheid that was ever written in the 90's, for my work on domestic violence issues and establishing 24 hour daycare for children, the Ruth Shriman House for senior living, the Wilson Yards Development and for welcoming Target as a neighbor and partner, and of course setting the bar for affordable housing in Chicago. Our schools and after school programs have seen remarkable changes and we now have a successful public high school modeled in Uptown. We have laid a strong foundation that will serve the future of the ward.
James Cappleman will be sworn in as the new alderman of the 46th Ward on Monday, May 16th. Our office teams have met several times to ensure a smooth transition. Initially, Alderman-Elect Cappleman's office will be at 4133 N. Broadway. Their phone number is 312-725-8683. Going forward, they're planning to establish their office at the 4544 N. Broadway location after it has been renovated.
I have to take a moment to thank my staff, my supporters and even my detractors for keeping me strong and steadfast to my guiding principles. I'm confident you will all act to keep the Fighting 46th Ward moving forward.
For those who may wish to contact me personally, please email me at:

LV2 Permits and guest permits are now available at the 46th Ward office for those living in
LV2/Cubs parking areas. This secures parking for residents living
near Wrigley Field (vs. patrons to the stadium).
Please bring Proof of address, ID, and city sticker number. You do not need your city sticker number if only picking up guest passes.
Permits are being mailed to eligible residents from the Department of Revenue and will arrive via
mail throughout the week. Some residents in the LV2 parking area may
not receive permits via mail because:
- Their car is eligible for the boot.
- They didn't purchase their most recent city sticker from the City Clerk's office.
- They weren't living in an LV2 area last season
The dotted streets are LV2
Vehicles parked on streets with LV2/Cubs signage will be ticketed and towed if the permit is not displayed during Cubs home night games.
The first home night game is on Monday, April 18th.
Please note: these permits are also needed during night concerts at
Wrigley Field. If you have any questions about the permit, please call
the 46th Ward office at 773.878.4646.
