- According to the Cook County Treasurer, the Unfunded Pension Liabilities of the Village of Tinley Park were over 53 million dollars at the fiscal end of 2015. The Village pension account is 40% unfunded. Is the Village doing anything to restructure the system and control costs? Click here to see a PDF page view of the summarized data.
- There is a report that the Village owes $47.9 million for a “Pension and Healthcare Shortage” due to a major failure of duty of the Village board.
- Retired Mayor, Ed Zabrocki, and the Village Board failed residents for years with no-bid contracts, costing taxpayers millions. One major failure is with a politically connected no-bid contract with a garbage disposal company. And here is a link to the Chicago Tribune article highlighting the corruption in the Village. To date, the Village STILL does not appear to utilize the bidding process as it should.
- Here are three more articles regarding the no-bid culture in Tinley Park... (1) the political insider's print shop, (2) the local florist, (3) Pizza man's clout wins big dough in Tinley Park. These are just to name a few.
- There is a class-action lawsuit against the Village regarding its use of faulty water meters, which over-charged residents. The alleged gross negligence of the Village is highlighted in the lawsuit, which can be read here.
- Tinley Park is sued for unpaid ambulance service bill; this article contains other interesting information.
- Tinley Park is sued for alleged Illegal actions of the Village.
- The Attorney General finds the Village of Tinley Park in violation of the Open Meetings Act. Perhaps the Village could utilize the unused Sandidge Elementary School gymnasium - this is property the taxpayers still pay to maintain, so lets use it!

We will do our best to stay on top of the scandalous activities of the Village. |
