For those seeking the blow-by-blow update, we are now a month into our quest for a building permit. A few years ago, the city started published building permit status to the general public. Enter our address, 2323 N. Milwaukee to see where things lie. The city updates this database nightly, so every morning I've built a habit of logging in whilst enjoying the mandatory cup of joe. As of today, we're waiting for the Mayor's Office for People with Disabilities to complete their first review, but have already passed the plumbing and electrical disciplines.
In other news, the building is a mess as the former occupants move out and the roof leaked straight down onto my desk and computer printer last week. Most of the paper on the desk which got water-damaged were legal bills anyways. Thank you mother nature for the temporary assistance with accounts payable!
