Amendment of Municipal Code by adding new Chapter 2-41 entitled Community Oriented Media Program
Chicago's City Council's Chapter 2-41 mandates agencies to allocate 50% of advertising to community media outlets, overseen by the Chief Procurement Officer. Agencies must appoint a Community Media Coordinator by February 15, 2023, and submit annual compliance plans. Exceptions include federal funding and legally required notices. The ordinance takes effect January 1, 2023, with no private right of action. Alderman of the 28th Ward endorsed it.
