Scandal Undiscovered?
Someone a bit more computer savvy than we are might have fun researching this. From the Sun Times article on Jackie Heard's dope dealing tenant:
- The case revolves around a female tenant who started renting a first-floor apartment in the house after Heard and her husband renovated the building in January.
From our comment section:
- I checked the public records on BUILDING PERMITS and [there] is no such of permit issued for
5319 w.Adams
from jan-1 05 to sep-40-09
WHYYYYYYYYYY?
That sure would be an interesting search for a real reporter, not like the ones who swallowed the claptrap coming from canned press releases.
UPDATE: One permit for electrical upgrades discovered. How much rehabbing was done? And we don't know about buying foreclosed properties, but someone in the comment sections found some odd sequencing of dates.

Daley's staff are exempt from following the law. All they had to do was drop to the alderperson & everyone became blind and deaf. They can't hear or see, but $$$$$ sure does speak loud enough to get city hall off your back.
not every home improvement requires a permit
Im just saying
What Scandal ????? " 5319 Adams is a vacant lot" was the response of the mayor & Ms Heard at the news conference. Daley added "I tink we was all down over dere in California when dese lies started"
I have the cities building dept site on my computer she had an electrical permit in Oct of 08.

Okay, I think she's full of it,as far as plausible deniability goes, but...
You can sand and refinish the floors, paint the house inside and out, replace the light fixtures, buy new appliances, put in new countertops, put up wallpaper, take down wallpaper, replace the locks, lay a new vinyl floor, change a faucet or two, repair cracked window panes, roof shingles and fence caps - - - without ever needing a permit.
So, fair is fair. If they actually did this kind of stuff, no permit is required.
But, someone could (hint, hint, REPORTERS) pull the photo of the property from the assessor's website (or maybe it's the treasurer's website) and compare it to the way the building looks now, to see if anything structural on the outside has changed. Because THAT requires a permit.
Interesting Facts about this property.
The homeowner before Jackie bought this building for $335,000. The building went into foreclosure and here is where is gets interesting.
The bank took over this house on 9/5/08 but the foreclosure wasn't listed with the Recorder of Deeds until 9/19/09.
Jackie bought this house from the bank on 9/18/09, a day before it was even made public that the bank took it over.
Now I've heard of getting a deal in foreclosure but this is unheard of. Jackie got this house for $65,500. A savings of $269,500.
Why would the bank sell this house for such a loss? They could of easily received more money just putting it up for auction. Who's her inside bank contact that tipped her off on the foreclosure and then pushed the deal through at a ridiculously low price before the foreclosure was even made public?
Lots of questions surrounding this deal, but hey, it's the Chicago way.
Nothing to see here, move along.

No building permits?
Who took care of this in the scandalous and notoriously crooked Building Department?
Did they send out the 18 year old building inspectors, Sexton and Ryan?
Was $$$$$ exchanged?
Was the entire process circumvented due to "CLOUT"?
I want to witness Jackie Heard's press conference after here appearance in Housing Court.
This is HUGE!
Either someone in the Building Department squashed the need for a permit or she avoided the entire process somehow.
The Building Department is by far the most corrupt department in the City of Chicago.
John Kass please jump on this one.
In the aftermath of the Lincoln Park porch collapse resulting in numerous deaths and exposing the corruption in the Building Department; Jackie Heard above all people should have known better than to pull this.
Unreal, imagine if a normal "UNCLOUTED Joe the Plumber" attempted to do this?
Proof positive of the rampant corruption at the top of Chicago's government.
There are two standards by which people are held accountable for their actions in Chicago, CLOUT and CLOUTLESS.
Absolutely sickening!
No building permits, what a surprise ! There are countless buildings that have been and are presently being rehabbed and otherwise renovated in this city all without permits and without professional supervision. The labor is being performed by unskilled, non-union laborers and the materials are usually substandard and not within code. Where are the building inspectors while all this is happening right in the public eye ? They are counting the pay off money at the Ward Office.
In the future more porches will collapse, more buildings will cave in upon themselves. Older buildings stripped of their internal structural supports will buckle under heavy snowfalls while they are inhabited and people are going to be killed. This isn’t a scandal waiting to happen, it is a human tragedy on a massive scale and what will City Hall do when their negligence murders citizen after citizen ? They will blame it on the victims of course and continue to count the bribe money.
If there is a hell Richard M. Daley will burn in it.
okay okay enough here. doncha y'all know that the rules that apply to us do not apply to those in shortshanks' inner circle. aunt bea first, nephew vanecko, now jackie who is like the mayor's play-cousin. remember the plumbing inspector who broke some water pipes and was turned in by the whistle blower with a conscience? how about our inspector general who seemed so conscientious is now running for a senate seat he will never win. have you seen any campaign ads lately for him? any news coverage? didnt think so . . .
only by constant pressure from bloggers like SCC will the public be informed of the truth behind the curtain that conceals the wizard of oddz. this blog and others like it will be in the forefront of real change and reform, like the news pamphlets and letters printed around 1776.
move along nothing to see here. watch out or they will cram the olympics down out throats.
Da Mare is going to protect Jackie Heard at all costs.
People please read John Kass's June 10,09 column. Here is an excerpt:
Daley is ill, but not over nephew's deal
On Tuesday, I called Daley's office to find out how he's feeling and to see whether he had anything to say about his dear, rich, lucky nephew.
"We don't have a statement," said the mayor's press secretary, Jacquelyn Heard, my old City Hall reporting partner. "He's had the flu since the weekend, though he
attended the police officer's funeral, and it got worse."
Will he be available Wednesday?
"I don't know," Heard said.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/columnists/chi-kassvanecko10jun10,0,1207600.column
wasnt there a time when jackie heard used to write for the scum times? she must have uncovered something good to get offered a job with shortshanks. reporters don't make that much, and the pay raise to inner circle worker was good enough for her to forget what she learned as a journalist.
just like CPD, if you got dirt on the right person, you get promoted faster than any test exam score will get you promoted.
shortshanks must have memorized books like macchiavelli's "the prince" and "the art of war". he uses techniques from them all the time.
I am waiting for the media to interview the PCS arrestee. What a great interview that will be. Imagine if some strange tragedy befalls her shortly???
I can't wait until the radio talk shows pickup on that video of the Fuhrer Daly on Youtube, now that will be some funny ass dialogue.
don't mess with a woman scorned or a policeman who is pissed off about no contract, no raise, no respect, no nothing!!!!
Of course the only place you will see this info in print is on the blog, it will conveniently disappear..
You all trying to make it sound like the woman did something wrong, any fool can see it was a mere discombobulation regarding dates, I am sure the Mayor will bring it to her attention when he browses the building permits issued report for those dates. We know how quick Richard "I don't recall" Daley is to uncover minute discrepancies as he pores over volumes of city reports.
Actually, I think his press staff had a real good laugh at that one, "Let's tell them the Mayor noticed it as he was reading drug house reports, ha ha ha, guffaw yowl hardee har har."
Everyone knows 'da mare don't like nuttin' wrote down!

Most likely the bank has City funds on deposit. Or maybe a mere coincidence, a chance purchase by a woman trying to make her neighborhood a better place to live.
Jeez, even the press secretaries cash in with Daley. His first one, Avis Lavelle, is raking it in representing PAZ Parking, who foisted the parking meter outrage on we hapless suckers.
She pimpin' the system!
---not a cop
OT: the proposed Sgt's contract has a proposed Physical Fitness Program which would be required for new promotions and voluntary for current Sgts...any info on this?
You know for a FACT that this is being monitored by City Hall hacks. They will take everything on here and try to head it off before more damage can be done.
So do your digging quickly, my friends.
the problem is nobody really digs into these phenomenons. they only scratch the surface. the feds are asleep at the wheel and the media trolls have failed us. us=society
As some else said, you get information from SCC about what's going on in Chicago that you can't get anywhere else.
It's the same thing with what's going on nationwide, if it wasn't for Fox News and talk radio, you would be clueless because the newspapers don't seem to get down to the nitty gritty. There stuff is all puff and Obama can do no wrong.
Thanks for being here SCC

WRONG, but enlighten us as to your wisdom. Other than regular maintenance, such as painting and landscaping, whether you know it or not, EVERYTHING requires a permit. Most do not get them for things like a fence, or a deck, or a pool, etcetera, but nonetheless, you are suppose to get one, per the building code of the city of Chicago.
O.T.---- I was driving down Milwaukee ave yesterday and watched as some asshole pounded on the hood of a police car in traffic. The officer told him to get on the sidewalk and then the guy wen tafter the cop. It took three cops and maybe an offduty cop?? to subdue the man. I watched as the offduty cop sprinted from a nearby parking lot to help out. Its good to see that no matter on duty or off duty the guy in the shorts and blue top jumped in to help his buddies. Thanks for taking the shit out of our neighborhood, and hopefully the 016 district will get start to get tougher on the assholes around here.
--Passing citizen
If she pulled a permit for the electric service she would be covered. However if she did a full rehab which I am sure she did, she would need a few more permits, such as drywall permit and a plumbing permit to name a few. I wonder if any work was done on the outside such as windows or maybe a porch. I mean hey everyone else has to get permits for everything especially a porch. After all people were killed regarding a supposed faulty constructed porch.
I'll drive by tongight and maybe take some pics of the property.

They want you to get a permit for a Water Heater for Christ's sake. A "Renovation", though I can appreciate your thought, FOR SURE required some sort of permit. Its a classic case of abusing whack.
5319 w adams
Listed 09/01/08 for $64,900.
Closed 10/24/08 for $65,126.
Jackie & Henry paid CASH, & $226.00 over asking. Must have been more than one offer, & a little birdie told them what to bid.
Comments from listing sheet(per
MLS) "Property will need repairs. Bank owned & selling AS IS,"
MLS picture shows 2flat all boarded up. Are windows in yet?
Why would she get a permit?
Do you have any idea how difficult it is to get a building permit?
She got the electrical permit because a licensed electrician can apply and get the permit on-line. As long as there is a permit displayed on the window, no one really takes the time to read it, so more work can be done under the radar.
I'm thinking the extent of renovations done to the property (especially being in the foreclosure state) would have required all kind of lisenced tradesmen, (no offense women) to get a permit, which then the City would want to see drawings/plans, that would require going thru Zoning and all the other disciplines required by DOB.
But why spend her time or her money on licensed tradesmen, architects, expeditors, etc., and do things properly, like most of us (uhm worse/t offenders) when she can give it directly to D*l*y and it could all be taken care of?
Well, until you nosey cops started to interfere!
Now all we need to do is start looking at aldermans propertys. Exempt staff and there familys propertys, mayoral staffs propertys, The mayors nephews property dealings along with his son and daughter. A lot of people are getting rich in this city off dirty real estate deals while we have to sit and wait three years for a contract.
"Nothing to see here, move along.
9/05/2009 01:05:00 AM"
Name the bank.
And the bank officers who signed off on the deal.
Im so pissed. I put up a fence this year, and that ran me 125.00 for the permit!!! (the fence co refused to work without one...apparently they got jammed up before in the city)
Chicago 2016 chief executive Patrick Ryan said the bid team wants IOC members, who will select a host city Oct. 2 in Copenhagen, to know they've cleared several hurdles, including getting the City Council's blessing for the mayor to sign the controversial host-city contract -- which puts taxpayers on the hook if a Chicago Olympics ended up losing money.
Unfortuanetly, nobody cares. This is just another example of the insiders making contacts withing the financial industry, and being able to pull the trigger on a Deal.
The upside for the financial industry? Having a voice that has the ear of the Mayor.
Remember- Democrats pushed for the Legislatation that allowed people with no assest, credit or jobs to purchase homes. In my opinion those Democrats are ultimately responsible for the MESS this country is in. The United States condition is just Chicago on a much larger scale.
IT GETS WORSE,DAY BY DAY. DOSEN'T ABYBODY SEE THIS SHIT?

Dateline: Strogerville -- Things are heating up!
Sneed hears that a flurry of new subpoenas was dispatched recently in the ongoing investigation of Cook County's financial dealings.
Michael Sneed
••To wit: Word is that Cook County State's Attorney Anita Alvarez's special prosecutions bureau has issued subpoenas to the Cook County comptroller's office as well as independent Cook County auditors.
••The investigation began with the hiring scandal involving County Board President Todd Stroger's handpicked chief financial officer, his cousin Donna Dunnings, and her relationship with Tony Cole -- a busboy-turned-county patronage worker, a top source said. "But now things are not only moving forward -- they're branching out into how Cook County manages its funds and pays its accounts."
••In April, the state's attorney's office dispatched subpoenas to the Stroger administration and Cole, who was fired for not disclosing criminal convictions on his job application.
This is F-ed up! I figure they are ALL compromised at soemlevel, but scheesh!!!!
The congresswoman and the Turkish Lobby sexual blackmail ring
WMR previously reported that Representative Jan Schakowsky (D-IL), a close ally of President Barack Obama and his chief of staff, former Representative Rahm Emanuel, who, like Schakowsky, represented a Chicago district, was sexually blackmailed by a lesbian prostitute who worked for the American Turkish Council (ATC).
WTF?!
SO HOW DOES THE MAYOR DO IT?
LETS SAY THE MAYOR HAS AN INSIDE GUY ALA MASTER.... NO LOYALTIES TO THE DEPARTMENT OR FRIENDS.
LETS SAY BEAT OFFICERS MAKE A PINCH ALA CUELLO SON IN LAW...WHAT DOES THE GENERAL ORDERS SAY FOR ARREST THAT MAY BE NEWS WORTHY OR CITY EMPLOYEES. THE ORDER STATE LET THE BOSS KNOW FAX ALL COPIES OF DOCUMENT ETC ETC ETC.
ALL OF A SUDDEN MASTERS/ CUELLO/ JFED ALL GET A TEXT MESSAGES RELATING THE INFO.
MASTER HAS A company phone and a private cell phone!!.the private cell phone is not city property so it cant be FOIA-ed.
WATCH COMMANDER IS CONTACTED AND ASKED WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BY 1 OF MASTER FLUNKY SGTS, AND TO FAX THE PAPER WORK. WATCH COMMANDER BEING LAZY BOTHERS THE OFFICER MAKING THE ARREST SAYING HQ WANT TO SEE PAPER AND SEND IT TO MEDIA AFFAIRS.
MEDIA AFFAIRS IS UNDER THE MAYOR OFFICE AND IS CONTROLLED BY HIS PRESS SECRETARY. THE INFO IS RELAYED 2 OR 3 TIME AND THEN POW THE MAYOR FLUNKY READS THE REPORT AND GIVES THE HEAD HONCHO A LOW DOWN ON A OPEN INVESTIGATION.
THE MAYOR DOES NOT SEE THE REPORT OR READ IT HE ONLY WANT TO SAY HIS STAFFER NOTIFIED HIM.
SO JACKIE HAS A HEADS UP AND COMES OUT W/ A BULLSHIT STORY BUT LIKE ALL CRIMINALS SHE CANT COVER UP ALL THE EVIDENCE....
SO YEA NO PERMITS AND IF A WARRANT WAS DONE THEY HAVE PICTURE OF THE HOUSE.
NEW DRY WALL?
NEW PLUMBING?
NEW ELECTRICAL?
IS SHE GOING TO HOUSING COURT ?
DID THE CITY INSPECTOR COME IN AND WRITE HER UP LIKE THE DO THE OTHER DRUG HOUSES?
THE MAYOR DOESNT KEEP TRACK OF HIS NEPHEW VANECKO OR HIS SON BUT HE READS DRUG HOUSE REPORT???
SOUNDS LIKE J-FED LEAKS INFO TO CITY HALL!!! WATCH THAT ASS BOYS CUZ MASTERS AND J-FED WILL BE GONE SOON BUT THEY WILL HAVE COPIES OF THOSE SECRET IAD FILES W/ THEM.

what do you consider a home improvement
changing a light bulb
door or window replacement
painting???
I don't know what town do u live in but at least in SHITCAGO you need a permit just about for everything.
and if you house is considered a Landmark then forget about it!
Some instances you can pull an EASY PERMIT when you are doing something insignificant, otherwise you need one
FENCING
DEMOLITION
DRYWALL
ELECTRIC
HVAC
PLUMBING
PORCH AND DECK
HOME ADDITIONS
HOUSE STRUCTURE CHANGES
TUCKPOINTING
Maybe you have getting away with one or live in the GHETTO because in some of the descent neighborhoods the fUC%%NG inspectors just drive around looking for parked dumpsters or construction debris in city garbage cans..or just ask the RAT neighbors
what licensed company pulled the permit so I can check if its true when it was closed and when did the inspection took place and who did the inspection?
BULSH%^&T posting!

No two apartments and a common meter. Tennants are not billed for electricity used for outdoor lighting and such
I be willing to bet the vast majority of DIY home improvements are not permitted.
Who wants to deal with the City and its legion of inspectors with their hands out?
Plus afterward, the city will reward your efforts by raising your property taxes.

I own a couple of building and the 3rd meter is for the garage, common areas, & misc that is paid for by me. Door bells,lights in hallway,hardwired smoke detectors, launry room,etc. So don't jump to that illegal conversion conclussion just yet.

Two units and an owner's meter for common areas.
Had you posed this as a question: "Why three meters? Is this an illegal conversion?", you wouldn't sound like an ill informed malcontent.
2 flat + 3 meters = Illegal Conversion. Let me quess, a brand spanking new apartment in the basemaent???
9/05/2009 11:17:00 PM
Not necessarily, my 2 flat has 3 electric meters and just 2 units. The third meter is for the basement. E.g., if you had 2 tenants in 2 units, they each pay their own, but who pays for basement or shared electric? -- the owner needs a 3rd. Same with gas, 2 meters for 2 units and 1 for the whole building's heat.
Scanalous!! But not in Daley's mind. Got to put a spin on it and then run off to Russia.

All you have to do is look the address up on the CC assessor's site. Check out the PIN and go to Rec of Deeds and you can figure out the rest. It's all public information on-line.
There was a political schmuck named Bill Bugelski, brother of a former state representative, that was over the Troubled Building unit at Inspections. He was arrogant, crass, abusive, unprofessional, and made everyone miserable at City Hall. Glad I got away, and never looked back.

How about asking Joe blow for an id or ask him his real name. You should never take a ticket as sole id.
