Could you please share the list? I would love to send it to my Alder and ask for an explanation.

^ Those are a couple of sharp-looking additions. Thanks for the updates.

Which is why right now is the time to stretch if you're a developer to get in the ground with 1 (or better yet more) projects asap. 2026 will be a phenomenal vintage for apartment delivery year....2027 will no doubt be really good too, but the sooner, the better if you love returns. Fully realize it's easier said than done right now.

^ Well, BCH lost and Rogers got re-elected to Board of Review, so the tax worries should clear up somewhat. But there are still lots of headwinds facing new construction.

And in the current environment, I wouldn't expect the department to be overloaded with requests. What gives?
Well apparently Judy (announced pre BJ) and Bob Falstrom both retired along with a bunch of long time Buildings department employees when Vallas lost. None of them want to be associated with the current administration. There is currently no more Asif style decision maker. Folstrom stepped into that role, but all the logical people who would fill in for him left.

I've heard the same, it's a total shit show and taking 9 months for anything to get reviewed.

I wonder if David Anderson is still there? He was great to work with, but I believe he was concentrated more on self-cert project assistance. Shame if he left too.

I don't wanna say 'we all told you so' to naysayers regarding BJ's leadership potential and how City Hall would be fucked

Dear Lord. There's an easy fix for the lack of experience in the department called a rubber stamp. Obviously don't cut corners on building inspections, but if they don't have enough experience/bandwidth to review the plans thoroughly -- just approve the routine requests and focus on the more complex; don't make everyone sit around in purgatory while you get your shit together!
