What’s up with the old guy on Pershing that stops traffic to let trucks get in and out fast? What traffic management authority does he have? None. Ignore him. I informed the 8th District Commander about this clown….crickets as usual. Also, turn down the frank sinatra pops, nobody wants to hear it.

Asphalt plants are known to produce toxic air pollutants, including arsenic, benzene, formaldehyde, and cadmium, that may cause cancer, central nervous system problems, liver damage, respiratory problems and skin irritation.

Polluting all the time! The fumes are toxic and horrible - they have destroyed the park where young children play and they do not care! Trucks are always driving around uncovered.

The McKinley Park 12th ward deserves more. There should be a federal investigation launched on the 12th ward alderman George Cardenas for accepting bribes from Otoniel “Tony” Sanchez to open up this asphalt plant. The bribes were hidden through a real estate transaction that was owned by George Cardenas’s brother. That’s how this asphalt plant was able to succeed without holding any public hearings or notifying residents in the community. And now the alderman supports the city of Chicago and its tax payers to help pay for the move of this asphalt plant. Why should the tax payers pay for

Pollution is excessive. Complaints are being heard, but no citations yet. People are trying to recover from COVID-19 and my neighbors, family and I deserve to be outside to heal without concerns of an awful smell and pollutants in McKinley park. This plan is an environmetbal injustice to children, elderly and those with asthma or other immune issues. Instead of monitoring the air and fixing what needs to be fixed, they want to cover the fumes with a cherry-scented chemical. No thanks.

Granted a permit to operate in a primarily residential area by Ald. Cardenas. The pollution across the park and into the neighborhood is terrible. There are toxic fumes regularly. They also managed to get someone to mess up traffic several times per week for their trucks on Pershing... McKinley Park residents do not support this company operating in out neighborhood without notice or input from the public.

Polluters running on an expired permit. They are ruining McKinley Park. IEPA, Cardenas and co. should all be held accountable.

Awful plant. They constantly pollute all over our beautiful park. The smell can be terrible sometimes. Their owners came to a neighborhood meeting one time and they were rude. They don't care about our concerns.
