Updated 4/9/2021 12:59 PM Des Plaines Mayor Matthew Bogusz touted the city's financial stability and private economic growth in a State of the City video released Friday. The presentation may well be Bogusz's last significant public address, as he's set to leave office in early May after eight years as mayor and four as a city council member.
The 18-minute video was filmed entirely within the Des Plaines Theatre, the once-decrepit landmark the city bought in 2018 and spent millions to refurbish. It's set to reopen to the public this year.
