The ordinance would also allow the waiver or reduction of some permit fees, both of which are standard CL4WF features.
Since 2008,there have been 6 building permits for the new construction of either oneor two-unit homes in South Shore. Two were single-family, and 4 were two-units. Since 2008, there have been no building permits for the new construction of either one- or two-unit homes in Calumet Heights.
