Re: City Fee Waiver for the Edgewater Chamber of Commerce
Dear Alderman Smith:
Thank you for helping us to acquire a fee waiver from the City of Chicago for the period of May 12, 2010 through May 11, 2011. We would like to renew our fee waiver.
I am writing to ask for assistance from you and your staff in renewing the fee waiver for the Edgewater Chamber of Commerce to cover May 13,2011 through May 12, 2012. If we can get the fee waiver for an even longer period, that would be fantastic.
The Edgewater Chamber of Commerce is a 501 (c)(6) organization. Our taxpayer ID number is 36-3311042.
Please let me know if you need any documentation from me. If you have any questions or would like to chat further, feel free to contact me at 773-561-6000.
Thanks,
Jay Delaney President/CEO
Edgewater Chamber of Commerce
