City Budget Worries, Bally's Casino Disappoints, and Tote Bag Season
Description
We are weeks away from Mayor Brandon Johnson’s second budget address. And with a nearly $1 billion budget gap looming, department heads are being asked to locate potential cuts wherever they can while advocates push the mayor to double down on key investments. The Triibe’s Tonia Hill and Block Club Chicago’s Melody Mercado are here with what we need to know ahead of Johnson’s proposal. Plus, we discuss Bally’s performance at Medinah Temple, a Logan Square standoff, and Ravyn Lenae’s Chicago tour stop.
