Transparency Portal

The City of West Chicago promotes transparency in all City departments, divisions and operations. One of the easiest ways to create and maintain transparency is by utilizing the City of West Chicago's website to share as much data as possible.

The City hopes that by sharing this information, residents and other constituents will have a better idea how their tax dollars are spent to provide them with the best possible standard of living.
