- Edgewater Neighbors’ Lawsuit Against City Over Broadway Rezoning Dismissed
A Cook County judge dismissed a lawsuit from Edgewater residents and business owners challenging the city's Broadway rezoning, ruling they failed to demonstrate constitutionally protected harms. The plaintiffs argued the city violated zoning code by not properly notifying property owners and limiting public hearing participation, but the judge found no prejudice or protected property interests were harmed.
