Your City Hall is quiet, real quiet.
Listen, normally I'm over here with the wooder-ice debate or talking about some wild jawn down at the Italian Market, but my City Hall beat? It's been like the Wissahickon Trail in January — not much moving.
**What's Not Happening Down at City Hall**
I'm not even gonna hold you, my inbox for the 311 service requests and development activity is looking emptier than South Street on a Tuesday morning. We usually got people calling about potholes big enough to swallow a SEPTA bus, or some wild construction jawn popping up in Fishtown. But right now, the numbers ain't saying much of anything.
* No new 311 issues to report this go-around.
* Development permits are on a serious chill.
This could mean a few things, or nah? Maybe folks are just enjoying the quiet, or maybe the system itself is taking a breather. I've seen slower weeks, but this is a *slow* week. It's like everybody decided to take a permanent trip down the shore at the same time. We'll be keeping an eye out to see if this is just a momentary lull or if the silence is the actual jawn we need to be watching.
That's the jawn, Philly — we don't do fake out here.

You know Keith and them always got the real talk in the morning — catch that jawn at mornings.live.
