Gee, $33K? About the price of a used Cherokee 140?

Big whoop. Ten parking meters on Wacker Drive make that in six months...

I'm heartened that the FAA is closing the door after the cows have
escaped,
and sincerely hope that King Daley is quaking in his boots.

You must have missed the part where Chicago could be on the hook for as much
as $6 million total (not counting the $33K penalty for violating the 30-day
notice requirement).

The 30-day notice requirement violation is a relatively minor infraction,
and as such wouldn't justify a very large penalty. Diverting funds
illegally is a much more egregious violation, and carries with it a much
greater penalty.

I think it's great news that the FAA is taking action against Chicago, and I
found nothing negative in the posted press release at all.

Perhaps diverting funds qualifies Daley for RICO (racketeering) charges.
I would LOVE to see him go to Leavenworth!
