We’ve discussed the bureaucratic obstacles to creative foodspaces before, but Gaper’s Block reports a new twist – Logan Square Alderman Rey Colon is trying to pull the permit for the Logan Square Farmers Market. Allegedly, Colon is angry about political campaigning (for his opponent in the last election) at the market, by an employee of the managing organization, the Logan Square Chamber of Commerce.
