Chicago City Council Chambers (CBS)
(CBS) — Money matters were uppermost at Wednesday’s Chicago City Council meeting, reports WBBMs Political Editor Craig Dellimore.
Quickly and without debate the City Council approved a $5 million settlement for the family of Laquan McDonald, a knife-wielding teenager who was shot 16 times and killed by a Chicago police officer last October; a $250,000 settlement for Nanci Koschman, whose son David was killed in an altercation with the nephew of former Mayor Richard M. Daley; and $325,000 for a couple whose vintage record collection was destroyed in a flood caused by a broken water main.
