CBS Chicago | Watch Live: Mayor Johnson attends Day In The Ward community event | CBS News Chicago @CBSChicago | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Mayor Brandon Johnson will attend the A Day in the Ward press conference highlighting Chicago Department of Transportation, One Summer Chicago and other investments in the 28th Ward.
---------------------------------
The Chicago Teachers Union is expected to propose a solution to the school district's budget shortfall.
This comes as City Council members are expected to hold a special meeting to discuss the school board resignations and appointments Mayor Brandon Johnson selected to replace them.
Teachers will announce more details about what they're calling a revenue recovery package. They haven't given any details about the package but claim it can provide "more than $1 billion in immediate revenue to the city and its schools."
The Chicago Public School District faces a $500 million hole for next year.
Sources tell us Mayor Brandon Johnson and the Chicago Teachers Union are in favor of taking out a $300 million high-interest loan to pay for teacher raises and some pension costs.
Mayor Brandon Johnson will not veto an ordinance that would have allowed the city's top cop to negotiate a new deal to revive Chicago's controversial gunshot detection program.
While Johnson said last month that he had "no choice" but to veto the ordinance that sought to reinstate the city's ShotSpotter program, a spokesman for the mayor's office said in an email Tuesday night that it was later "deemed unnecessary" to do so because the ordinance cannot be enforced.
