Rita Tungare and I attended the annual ICSC Deal Making Trade show at Navy Pier on October 19th and 20th. This is the 4th consecutive year that we have attending the show and the 3rd consecutive year that the City has been an exhibitor of the event. This year’s event was very well attended and we were able to connect with a number of commercial brokers, construction managers, and potential tenants.

Neal Johnson has had conversations with them about a lot here in St. Charles. Neal passed along this information to me, and I was able to meet with Tony Rubino from Thornton’s on Thursday the 20th to discuss this

The investigation of Rita Crundwell started with a tip from the interim Controller of the city of Dixon, Kathe Swanson. She was taking the place of Rita Crundwell while Rita was partaking in an extended vacation. Swanson noticed a suspicious account called R.S.C.D.A., which stood for Reserve Sewer Capital Development Account. Large amounts of city funds were being deposited into this account, and there was no evidence that the money in this account was being used for city purposes.

For this paper I had to think about where I was going to watch people do their usual day. Then I remembered that the 2017 NACS show was going on this week, which stands for the National Association of Convenience Stores. On Tuesday I went to the McCormick Place to see all the companies that came out. While looking at the map that they hand you during the fair to see where all the companies are located I found that Lidworks was at booth 5359.

When I arrived at
