High water pressure and a broad new Chicago charter
Chicago moves toward a high pressure water system in the Loop independent of subway completion, with immediate installation on other streets as needed. A broad city charter is urged to accommodate two million residents, replacing last year’s prohibition charter. The charter convention invites public suggestions while naming many committee members and Democratic and Republican figures involved in city politics and governance.
