Former zoning investigator William Wellhausen admitted to federal Judge Joan Humphrey Lefkow on Tuesday that he took a wide array of payoffs.
But he pleaded guilty to a single charge of taking $8,000 from building owners seeking approval to squeeze extra units into an apartment house basement.
Wellhausen also agreed to cooperate in the investigation in exchange for a lenient sentence of 15 months. The maximum on the charge is five years.
