Decline in chronic nuisance (80-10) letters

Presented Common Ground's nine-page evaluation of the 80-10 ordinance with three concerns and nine recommendations, noting letters fell from 150 in 2018 to 46 in 2025 and 48% of flagged properties are corporate-owned, and urged the city to 'use and improve' the ordinance.

Appeared with Common Ground and read tenant accounts of unsafe corporate-owned buildings, including an S2 property where a tenant reported assaults, a gun pull, and unresponsive management.

Appeared with Common Ground in support of stronger use of the nuisance ordinance to hold corporate landlords accountable and make South Side neighborhoods safer.
