Rep. Adam Kinzinger eyes Belvidere for new office - Rockford, IL - Rockford Register Star

I think this is unheard of and question the propriety?  And why is the city competing with private landlords?

U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger’s northern 16^th District office may be housed in Belvidere City Hall.

On Monday, the Belvidere Committee of the Whole approved renting space to Kinzinger at 401 Whitney Blvd. at $350 per month from March 3, 2013 to Jan. 2, 2015. Rent includes office space, internet and all utilities.

“I think this is an outstanding opportunity for the city of Belvidere, the next administration, as well as our constituents,” Mayor Fred Brereton said.
