Residents, contractors, developers and others packed City Hall on Tuesday night demanding answers and action on long delays in the city’s construction permitting system.
Andrew Lasinski, a small business owner near Brewers Hill, said he’s been waiting six months for approval to install two electrical outlets.
“We’ve done everything by the book,” Lasinski explained. “This is a simple mechanical building permit… and it’s still not issued today. I fear that my investment I’ve worked hard for is going to be at risk because of the situation.”

Ok, in 10 seconds, name one thing this government does well. Ok, now, in 10 hours, name one thing . . .
And to think that someone in city hall thought, ok, let’s own and manage a Hilton hotel.
