The airport is owned and operated by the City of Chicago. The FAA has the responsibility to regulate the airport's operations, but has no authority to regulate whether or not it will operate at all. The FAA has already said that Daley has violated no Federal statutes.

Federal Jurisdiction and City ownership are two different things.

The FAA defines how airports shall operate. The FAAs jurisdiction was lost when the location ceased to be an airport.
