City In Review: Chicago

Gage Park · 2024-06

Gage Park permit count jumps 53%, value drops

Gage Park pulled 23 permits in June, up from 15 the month before. Nearly all of them—19—came through the express permit program, likely minor fixes and quick turnarounds. Total dollar value slid to $217k from $312k, a 30% drop despite the higher volume. No new business licenses, no service requests logged. A month of small-scale work.
