Preliminary Injunction Against the Village of Oak Park

🚨 Protecting Public Health & Stopping Unsafe Construction

Our legal team has filed a Motion for Preliminary Injunction to halt all ongoing and future construction projects in Oak Park that were improperly permitted without required Cook County demolition permits and asbestos safety compliance.

The injunction demands that the Village:
✔ Immediately stop all construction on properties that should have obtained a Cook County Demolition Permit.
✔ Identify noncompliant properties and prevent further work until proper asbestos testing and remediation are completed.
✔ Ensure public safety by enforcing regulations that protect workers, inspectors, and residents from asbestos exposure.
✔ Hold the Village accountable for its failure to enforce mandatory demolition permit laws.

📢 Why This Matters:
The Village of Oak Park has permitted thousands of unsafe construction projects without requiring asbestos testing. This puts workers, homeowners, tenants, and neighbors at risk of deadly asbestos exposure.
