City In Review: Chicago

Mount Greenwood · 2025-12

Mount Greenwood permits collapse to just two

Mount Greenwood issued only two permits in December, down from 15 the month before—a drop that slashed total permit value from $1.8 million to about $404k. One was an express permit, the other new construction. No new businesses opened or closed. Service requests climbed 13 percent to 369, led by 53 calls about ice and snow removal. Crime fell 36 percent to 32 incidents, though violent offenses held at eight. One food establishment failed inspection.
