Let’s (re)Imagine Chicago.

What is (re)Chicago?

(re)Chicago is a strategic initiative to assess and address flaws in the city’s governance structure. Our current system is best described as dysfunctional, lacking the checks and balances that foster sound decision-making. A long history of transactional power politics has led to perpetual struggle and crisis. Community engagement is often an afterthought. 

(re)Chicago aims to reset the balance of power and instill accountability in Chicago’s government through a citizen-driven process, leading to voter-approved, constitutional-level changes in its municipal governance structure.
