“Despite his campaign promise not to accept money from developers, records indicate Chicago Alderman Brendan Reilly received more than $72,000 from Magellan Development or its officers between 2011 and 2016, according to documents provided to Chicago City Wire by a source who requested to remain anonymous.
Reilly, who represents the 42nd Ward on the Chicago City Council, is ‘influential’ when it comes to downtown development, the source said, and it’s resulted in good deals for Magellan.
The situation raises questions and could hint at ‘impropriety,’ Sarah Brune, executive director of the Illinois Campaign for Political Reform (ICPR) told Chicago City Wire.”
