We have the latest on the ongoing maneuvering over Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s proposed 2016 city budget: Emanuel’s lining up votes. Alderman are doing their last-minute lobbying for tweaks. And Chicagoans are waiting to see where the cards will fall and what it means for them. The final version of the budget goes to a vote next week. We review some of the top-line items: The property tax hike, the homeowner’s exemption to that tax hike, garbage fees. City Hall reporter Lauren Chooljian and WBEZ state politics Tony Arnold share their perspectives. (Flickr/Tracy O)
