After a contentious city council meeting one week ago, Aldermen advanced a third version of an aldermanic map on Tuesday for a vote at next week’s meeting.
The most significant changes are to ward seven, portions of which would fall under wards six and eight in the new map’s version. Ward seven Alderman, Joe McMenamin, who is term limited, will not be running for re-election.
Under the new map, sections of South MacArthur Blvd., due for major work, would fall under ward six (current Alderwoman Kristin DiCenso). Washington Park and points immediately south would be in ward eight (current Alderwoman Erin Conley).
A detailed version of the new map is available on the city of Springfield website: https://www.springfield.il.us.
