Glencoe officers also handled multiple license and insurance violations, giving residents a snapshot of the kinds of incidents local departments are addressing this month.
   

• Winnetka moving to ease permitting process (therecordnorthshore.org) — Winnetka officials are moving toward longer building-permit timelines and lower extension fees for new single-family homes, but they still want changes before a final vote.
