Belmont Cragin hits zero across permits, 311, crime

Every metric landed at zero for Belmont Cragin in May—no building permits, no 311 service requests, no reported crimes—after April logged 11 permits worth $172k, 897 service calls, and 18 crimes. Six new business licenses did process: Irma's Magic Beauty Salon, Harbor Freight Tools #400, Dollar Plus Variety (which picked up both a tobacco and a retail food license), Utopia Nails Salon, and Renegade Dog Services. The across-the-board zeros suggest a data collection issue rather than a month of absolute quiet.
