Special Service Area #76
North Michigan Avenue

WHAT ARE SPECIAL SERVICE AREAS (SSA)?

Special Service Areas (SSAs) are locally controlled, locally funded taxing districts designed to offer services to business districts. They are governed by local taxpayers, and the funds generated are used for programs that address customer attraction, public safety, and public way enhancements, and economic development.

For more information on the program, visit the City of Chicago website  HERE.
