Anthony V. Napolitano (born March 29, 1975)[1] is the current Alderman for Chicago's 41st ward, located on the Northwest side and including Edison Park, Norwood Park, Oriole Park, O'Hare and Edgebrook.
Napolitano worked as a Chicago police officer from 2000 to 2005, and later as a Chicago firefighter.[2]
Aldermanic career
Napolitano was elected as the 41st ward alderman in 2015, unseating incumbent alderman Mary O'Connor. He was reelected in 2019.
He is a member of the following committees: Aviation, Committees, Rules and Ethics, Human Relations, Pedestrian and Traffic Safety, Public Safety and Transportation and Public Way. He was a member of the now inactive Joint Committee on Finance-Public Safety.[3]
In November 2019, Napolitano was one of fifteen aldermen to oppose a $72 million property tax increase in Mayor Lori Lightfoot's first budget that included $7 million in funding for City Colleges, $32 million in funding to retire a general obligation bond issue and $18 million in funding for libraries. However, he voted for the budget as a whole.[6]
Party affiliation
Napolitano's party affiliation at various times has been reported as either Republican or as unaffiliated with a political party.[7][8] Illinois does not have party registration, Illinois holds open primary elections, and members of the Chicago City Council are elected in nonpartisan elections.[9] This makes party affiliation a matter of self-identification. Napolitano identifies as an independent.[8]
Personal life
Napolitano is married to Jamie O’Shaughnessy and they have 3 children.[10]
