March 21st Update

Dear Friend,

Don't forget to join us for a Drive-Up Visit with the Easter Bunny on Saturday, March 23rd from 11:00am to 1:00pm in front of the 38th Ward Office at 3821 N Harlem. The Easter Bunny will be happy to take a photo with you and he is bringing treats for the kids! In addition to the Easter Bunny visiting, we will be collecting food for our local food pantry, St Cyprian. Please help those in need this Easter by bringing non-perishable food donations for St Cyprian. We look forward to seeing you at our Drive-Up event!

Street sweeping will begin on April 1st and run through mid-November. Chicago utilizes mechanical street sweepers to remove debris and litter from streets. Bright orange temporary parking restrictions are posted the day before sweeping service is scheduled to ensure curb-to-curb cleaning. 

To avoid a ticket and to allow street sweepers to thoroughly clean streets please pay close attention for the sign posted on side streets or main streets. A weekly schedule will be posted in our e-mail, and we will share the link to the schedule for the City's entire season as soon as it is available.

Exemption applications for tax year 2023 are now available online and at the 38th Ward Public Service Office. If you have any questions, contact us at 773-283-3838. Please note: exemptions are only reflected on your second installment property tax bill. The automatic renewal of some exemptions due to COVID-19 has ended. This means that those receiving the "Senior Freeze" and Veterans with Disabilities Exemptions must reapply this year. For more information on property tax exemptions, please visit the Cook County Assessor's website.

Sincerely,

Alderman Nicholas Sposato
