Summary

Alderman Jason C. Ervin’s newsletter primarily promotes April 2026 28th Ward community and service events (including a quarterly community meeting on April 18 and multiple cleanup, job, youth, pet, and grant-related opportunities) with no specific zoning, housing, transit, or budget hearings/ordinances or development approvals listed. It also advertises several community programs and forums (e.g., Earth Day activities, amnesty at City Hall, scholarship/job applications, a career/resource fair on May 1, and a blood drive on May 3).
