Licensed to grill
Alderman Brendan Reilly (42nd) on Thursday grilled Rosemary Krimbel, commissioner of the city’s Department of Business Affairs and Consumer Protection, on a host of licensing matters that impact his dense River North neighborhood. Reilly held court on everything from liquor laws to valet companies to horse drawn carriages, perhaps incurring the wrath of an impatient Alderman Carrie Austin (34th), chair of the City Council Budget Committee. “The chairman is going to make me to turn my mic off,” Reilly joked.
