What: \u00a0City of Chicago Annual Budget Address
\nWhen: \u00a0Wednesday, October 21 at 10:00am<\/p>\n
The annual Budget Address will be given on Wednesday, October 21 at 10:00 am, along with the release of the Mayor\u2019s 2021 Budget Recommendation. Facing the largest budget gap in the City\u2019s history due to the\u00a0overwhelming and persisting impacts of COVID-19, the Budget Address will detail the reforms, efficiencies and investments that make up the 2021 Budget.<\/p>\n
To make the 2021 Budget process informative and inclusive even during the COVID-19 pandemic, the City expanded its new community engagement and public education process beginning in late August with \u201cBudget\u00a0Week\u201d, a weeklong series of virtual townhall meetings where Budget Director Susie Park sat down with key City leaders to review the critical functions of each department, update the public on key issues facing the\u00a0City\u2019s finances and respond to questions submitted by residents through the website portal. Budget engagement efforts also included an online survey also made available physically at Chicago Public Library locations.<\/p>\n
