Chicago Officials Revise Rules Limiting Access to City Council Meetings After Warning – WTTW (Chicago)

Members of the public would have to make reservations and show government-issued identification to sit in the main, second-floor gallery in the Council Chambers during meetings of the Chicago City Council under revised rules designed to limit access. The 70 seats in the third-floor gallery would be available on a first-come, first-served basis.
