Fairview Heights officials had no idea who was moving into the building?
The new building owners didn’t have to pull any permits to do the renovation work?
What a bunch of liars! You go to any permit department in any city and try to put “I’m renovating” on the application and see how far that gets you. Heck, we can’t even install a new water heater without a permit
Building permits dont name tenants, just use. And if the use is within zoning, then there’s nothing anyone can do.
