Suggestion in Slack from Soren:

Parachuting in to nitpick that I think in several places where you use the word "buildings" alone to describe the party that is required to report, it may be better to use "building owners". It's like the "car" vs. "driver" distinction in traffic crash reporting.

this is great - hopefully it will turn a few heads. do you plan to pitch to a publication? block club, trib or sun-times might be interested.

a few notes:

• might be worth updating the home page to feature this blog post if you want more people to find/read it
• shorter version of the headline reads a little better: "City Of Chicago Failed to Collect $30 Million In Potential Fines from Building Benchmarking Ordinance"
• add a way to contact you for follow-up information

nice. i think the two alerts are competing with each other with color a bit. might look better if they were stacked vertically instead of horizontal too.

@derekeder - I did that before, but then you have to scroll down more on desktop view the actual table. I could make the legislative update background white, perhaps?

[derekeder]

yah white background would help i think

Merging this in since folks have looked at it and it's not changing data
