City officials have rejected a building permit application for ramp repair work performed at Wrigley Field and instructed the Chicago Cubs to provide additional information about the repairs “as soon as possible,” a city spokeswoman said Monday.
The application was for remedial work already done on nine concrete ramps located throughout the ballpark, said Breelyn Pete, a spokeswoman for the city’s Buildings Department.
But the Cubs’ paperwork came without architectural and engineering plans, specifications, information about preparatory work performed on the ramps and materials used, Pete said.
The repairs were performed between 2001 and this year, she said.
Meanwhile, the city’s Department of Construction and Permits on Monday issued two permits to the Cubs for planned work at Wrigley.
The first, for certain concrete slab and ornamental steel repairs, was secured after the team paid a $585 fee, said Sabrina Miller, a spokeswoman for that department.
The second, to erect scaffolding and to have it in place until Aug. 9, 2005, was issued after payment of a $50 fee, Miller said.
