The ward is made up of the Lincoln Park neighborhood and a part of the Gold Coast.
Mayor Lori Lightfoot appointed Knudsen
Knudsen – who has also worked as an attorney with the law firm Croke Fairchild Morgan & Beres – said he hopes to continue using his leadership that he learned in both the public and private sectors. "I know this from knocking the doors. From day one being in offices. We funded more cameras; more police observation devices, through our ward's infrastructure budgets," he said. I've been able to sponsor three bills cracking down on illegal guns, increasing safety, and protecting against crimes against first responders on Council."Comer also said public safety is a"massive issue.
In touting his policy plan for public safety, Comer said there is a 2,000 deficit of Chicago Police officers citywide – or 80 officers not on the street in the Near North and Town Hall districts. He suggested a program that would involve DePaul University students who need to pay off their student debt.
