NPR Features 49th Ward’s Participatory Budgeting Process

May 29, 2012

Dear Neighbor,

I am proud to report that our 49th Ward Participatory Budgeting process once again received national recognition.  NPR’s Weekend Edition featured “PB49” in its broadcast on Saturday.

To listen to the six and one-half minute report and read the accompanying story, visit:

http://www.npr.org/2012/05/26/153747108/chicago-ward-gives-budgetary-power-to-the-people

As the story indicates, we just successfully completed our third year of participatory budgeting.  For the results of the PB49 Election, CLICK HERE.

Once again, congratulations to the PB49 Leadership Committee, the PB49 Community Representatives, who researched and developed the project proposals, and the over 1,300 49th Ward residents who voted in last month’s election.  It was a well-deserved recognition.

It’s not too late to become involved.  We’ll be launching the fourth year of Participatory Budgeting in a few months and this coming year we hope to be joined by four or five other Chicago wards.  Stay tuned.

In the meantime, if you would like to find out more about Participatory Budgeting in the 49th Ward, visit the Participatory Budgeting page of my web site at:

Sincerely,

Joe Moore
