“Let The Sun Shine on Rogers Park” is the theme of Gordon’s campaign to deliver new leadership to boost community improvement in the 49TH ward and tackle longstanding challenges confronting residents in the far north side community.

“Preventing crime, protecting our lakefront, and developing balanced housing are among the priorities that I will address as alderman. Our government shouldwork for us, and stay out of our bedrooms as well as our kitchens,” Gordon said, questioning the lack of attention to local problems by the ward’s current alderman who led a ban on the Chicago sale of the French delicacy Foie Gras.

Don Gordon works as a professional project manager, volunteers as Executive Director of the Rogers Park Conservancy, and last year won the Friends of the Parks’ Community Advocacy Award. Gordon and his wife Bonnie have lived in Rogers Park for 30 years where they are raising their daughters.
