Ballot Items
The 49th Ward Office is doing a bit of a remix on participatory budgeting for the 2020 menu budget. Due to the shortened time frame, residents will be voting on previous years' runner up projects this fall.
Click on an image below to learn more about the different projects on this year's participatory budgeting ballot. When you've learned about what will be on this year's ballot, scroll down to learn more about early voting, mobile voting locations, and the final vote. Voting will take place November 4 through November 16.
Starting spring 2020, be on the lookout for more information and volunteer opportunities for a full PB cycle.

Voting Information
49th Ward residents aged 14 and older once again have the opportunity to vote in the 49th Ward's participatory budgeting process. This is the 10 year anniversary of Participatory Budgeting in Chicago's 49th Ward. Participatory Budgeting is a democratic system that empowers people in determining how their tax dollars are spent.
For those wishing to vote online, simply fill out an online registration form. My staff will respond with the voting site link and a special access code to allow you to vote. Please do not share your code with anyone else; your code is unique and may be used only once. Please note that this is not an automated system; rather, office employees will be verifying the information. This may result in a delay from the time you submit the registration form to when you receive the one-time code.
Early voting will take place between November 4 and 15. The final vote will take place on November 16.
