    Kelley claimed that over the Summer, 2004, the Chicago Park District destroyed his work in violation of his Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990 rights and without proper notice. He also said that in response to a request for documents in his lawsuit, the CPD unexpectedly provided, as a matter of public record, a "smoking gun" document that intimates Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley was aware that the Chicago Wildflower Works was to be destroyed, and had discussed possible replacements with a CPD employee, Shirl McMahon, who later was found guilty of accepting bribes in connection with CPD work and sentenced to a term in a Federal penitentiary. The previous year, in 2003, Daley was a factor in another controversial CPD destruction--the midnight closing of Chicago's downtown lakefront airport, Meigs Field, in which bulldozers tore up runways--without giving 30-day notice. According to the Chicago Sun Times, September 19, 2006, the Daley administration agreed "to pay a $33,000 fine and repay $1 million in federal airport development grants--to settle claims stemming from Mayor Daley's infamous midnight destruction of Meigs Field in March 2003."
