2020 Participatory Budgeting

The Office of 33rd Ward Alderman Rossana Rodriguez Sanchez is committed to the values of ward democracy and social justice. We invite you to participate in participatory budgeting to advance these values!   

PARTICIPATORY BUDGETING (PB)

The 33rd Ward has joined seven other wards that will be using the Participatory Budgeting process to decide how to allocate our annual $1 million in Aldermanic Menu Funds. Menu funds are the only funds that are allocated to each ward for infrastructure improvements including all streets, alley, and sidewalk repavements. 

PB is a civic engagement program that increases transparency and democratic participation in our communities. Residents work together to generate ideas about infrastructure improvements they’d like to see in our ward, then vote on which should receive funding. You can read more about PB Chicago here.

We are currently in the final stage of PB which is VOTING! In order to vote, you can register here to participate in our online voting process, stop by the office during office hours, or check out one of our upcoming voting events.

Wednesday (1/15) and (1/22) 3:30PM-5:00PM at Roosevelt High School
