The Chicago City Council on Wednesday approved a controversial deal in a 37-11 vote that would turn over some 26 acres of Chicago Housing Authority land to the Chicago Fire Football Club.

After the unexpected initial failure of the deal – which has gotten backing from the CHA, Mayor Lori Lightfoot, and the Chicago Plan Commission –Tunney recessed the meeting and reconvened it for 9:30 a.m. Wednesday, just 30 minutes before the day’s full meeting of the City Council. “I have never seen a roll call vote that was taken in committee and was voted down, and then because we don't like the outcome of the vote we reconvene to have another vote the very next day,” Beale said.
“I warned you that this is what it was going to come to,” Napolitano said, noting that the council voted against his wishes last December in. Nonetheless, Napolitano backed the deal with the Fire.
