Near South Side permits fall to zero

Building permits dropped from nine in April (totaling $240k) to none in May. Business licenses show 18 entries, but the data has issues—Slumber Stay LLC appears five times, and three entries list no name. Community Organizing and Family Issues picked up a limited business license. Service requests, crimes, and violent offenses all went to zero after small April counts.
