Outgoing Alderpeople Discuss Lightfoot Legacy, Challenges Ahead for Johnson


The last Chicago City Council meeting of this term is in the books, and for a dozen Chicago alderpeople, it was their last council meeting ever.

Among those not coming back are Ald. Sophia King (4th Ward) — who ran unsuccessfully for mayor — and Ald. James Cappleman (46th Ward) and Ald. Harry Osterman (48th Ward), who both chose not to seek reelection.
