**** Also on that committee was an acquaintance of Tony Rezko who, also during that time, was developing land deals that involved to some degree, building new hospitals. Hospitals cannot be built in Illinois with approval from the State Health Committee. ****

Edward Hospital in Naperville got screwed over by that committee a few years back and filed a complaint (to the State or Fitz). Out the blue they were refused an application to build a new hospital in Lockport(?). IIRC it was allegations of Bid Rigging - that they *HAD* to use a specific General Contractor.

PS: Furnace is now fixed. It was a stinking little electronic switch and five minutes of work.

Plainfield (next door to my burb). Yes, the complaint did state “contractor bid fixing” as one of the complaints.

RE: The switch. I assume the guy was a union mook? The one thing I learned quickly after I moved here was that minor service calls around the suburbs are ^very^ expensive when it requires a union-bot.

If not, I hope the owner did give you a good deal on the service call.
