Call on Committee on Ethics and Government Oversight to establish subcommittee to analyze transparency of appointment process of City of Chicago sister agencies
The Mayor of Chicago appoints members to the Chicago Housing Authority's Board of Commissioners, the Community College District No. 508's board, the Chicago Parks District's Board of Commissioners, and the Chicago Transit Authority's board. The Transit Authority, established in 1945, allows the Mayor to appoint 4 members, who then appoint an Executive Director. All appointments require City Council's advice and consent.
