Weekly Update from the office of Alderman Harry Osterman
“April 7th, 2023
Dear Neighbors,This was a historic and pivotal week for our city and community with the election of Brandon Johnson as Mayor and Leni Manaa-Hoppenworth as Alderwoman of the 48th Ward.
I want to congratulate both and wish them support, strength, and great success in their new roles leading our City and moving Chicago forward. I am confident that Mayor Johnson will work to improve our schools, address the violence in our City, build more affordable housing, improve the CTA, and bring us all together as One Chicago. I wish him and his administration all the best as he takes on the challenges facing Chicago.On behalf of myself, my staff, and our entire community, I want to congratulate Leni Manaa-Hoppenworth on her election as Alderwoman of the best Ward in the city. I have known Leni for many years and I know her love and deep commitment to our community and all the people that call the 48th Ward home. I believe she will be an outstanding Alderwoman for our community and lead our community in an inclusive, open, and dedicated way.
I also want to commend Joe Dunne on his willingness to serve our community and his ongoing dedication to our neighborhood.
Leni has my full support, and my staff and I will be working with Leni and her team on a smooth transition. I ask that you extend Leni the support, engagement, help, and patience that you have shown me over the years, in her important new role as our Alderwoman. I will provide more information in upcoming newsletters about how to connect with Alderwoman-elect Manaa-Hoppenworth.
As we begin the transition to new leadership in our community, my staff and I want to thank you for the support and kindness you have shown us over the years. It has been a great run!!
We will have two Goodbye & Thank You events to thank neighbors for all of their support over the years. Our first event will be an open house at my office, 5533 N Broadway, on Friday, April 21st from 10am-2pm. Stop by for coffee and refreshments. The second event will be on Saturday, April 22nd from 4-8pm at St. Andrew Greek Orthodox Church, 5649 N Sheridan. If you have time, please visit for live music and lots of laughs (though no pothole requests will be accepted at the event – continue reaching out to my office with any constituent service requests). I would love to see you at these events!
