Welcome to the 39th Ward
The neighborhoods and communities that make up our ward are vibrant centers of business and culture. The 39th Ward is home to our friends and family, our businesses, our parks, and our homes. From public safety to education, and from economic growth to community resources like libraries and parks, together we can make our community better than it has ever been.
This website serves as a centralized location for everything our office can assist you with. Our staff can help connect you with city services and ensure that you are receiving the best possible assistance. We are happy to help with parking permits, garage sale and block party applications, tree trimmings, business inquiries, and anything in between. Our office also functions as a liaison between residents and police and City departments. We are here to help – please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
TThe 39th Ward office is located at 4200 West Lawrence Avenue. I look forward to seeing you at a community meeting or at the office in the near future. Again, our office is here to serve you. Please feel free to give us a call, send an email, or drop in if there is anything we can assist you with.
