Whether you realize it or not, the office of the City Clerk is the most visited in the Chicago government. But what does the City Clerk and the office of the clerk do? The answer is a whole lot, including keeping city records, issuing vehicle stickers, and managing dog registrations. City Cast Chicago host Jacoby Cochran sits down with City Clerk of Chicago Anna Valencia to learn more about the office, discuss the City Key and Mobile City Hall initiatives, and ask about what 8 years as clerk have taught her about Chicago.
