'It feels pretty nice' Mayor Johnson says walking into City Hall for the first time since being sworn in Monday.
Bringing his inaugural address to a rousing conclusion by calling for Chicagoans to unite to revive the city, Johnson said"I can't wait to continue to lead this city towards a future that generations to come will look back and see the soul of Chicago that has made it possible for posterity."
Johnson won't have long to wait to preside over his first City Council meeting. The City Council will reconvene next Wednesday, May 24, at City Hall, when aldermen are expected to vote on Johnson's so-called"Unity Plan" to reorganize the council. By a 33-11 vote on March 30, before Johnson defeated Paul Vallas in the mayoral runoff election, the City Council approved a reorganization plan that would set up 28 committees, with chairs picked by aldermen rather than the mayor. However, it didn't take long before Johnson began working with his supporters on the City Council to cut down on the number of committees, and replace some of the council's chosen committee chairs with his aldermanic allies.
