LAKEVIEW — Ald. Tom Tunney (44th) wants your opinion on Wrigley Field.

In a Facebook post, Tunney asked community members to come to a Monday night meeting to weigh in on the proposed changes.

The Cubs want to add more bleachers, new outfield lights, four additional LED signs and a right-field videoboard. Each of these proposals will go before the Commission on Chicago Landmarks on July 10.

"I have expressed concerns about additional signage at Wrigley Field and would like the community to weigh in on the latest proposal," Tunney wrote on Facebook.

In advance of the landmarks meeting, Tunney wants to hear from community members at 6:30 p.m. Monday at the Town Hall police station, 850 W. Addison St.
