According to a recent article in the Tribune, “the city has put off implementing a 2020 ordinance that would have given greater weight to bird protection measures on the list of criteria it uses to evaluate proposed new buildings.”

We support the ordinance, sponsored by Alderman Hopkins, and urge you to contact your Alderperson today!
