Mayor Johnson’s decision to end ShotSpotter contract may not be a ‘done deal’ after all – Chicago Sun-Times

Ald. David Moore accused Mayor Brandon Johnson of making a “unilateral decision” to get rid of ShotSpotter that runs contrary to the needs of his South Side ward, which includes parts of Englewood, Auburn Gresham, Marquette Park and Chicago Lawn. “The mayor reports to the people, as I do. If we say government is for the people, by the people, then we have to listen to the people,” Moore said. “My community is saying it helps. My community is saying they want it. ... I think we’ve got 26 aldermen that believe the way I do.”
