In the first of what could be a flood of fraud findings, Chicago’s inspector general has concluded a worker at the Department of Streets and Sanitation received a federal Payroll Protection Program loan “for a fictitious hair salon business.
Interim Inspector General Steven Cyranoski’s last round of federal loan fraud findings, published in July, resulted in the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago creating an “ineligible for rehire” list — where employees who engage in “egregious misconduct” are placed. Such a list is standard for other local governments. In that previous report, Cyranoski’s office found four employees at the MWRD office defrauded the government.
