Chamberlain also noted numerous violations issued to CBZ over the condition of the properties. Those violations, Chamberlain wrote, “have not yet been addressed.” The news that the properties could close and displace their residents shocked advocates, who hosted a news conference Thursday outside of CBZ’s Whispering Pines apartments in Aurora. Tenants feared that their property could be closed after a recent comprehensive inspection of the property identified extensive health code violations.

Standing in the courtyard between Whispering Pines’ buildings Thursday, tenants said they continued to pay rent and had offered to fix some of the properties themselves.

“We are disheartened and horrified to learn of this news at CBZ,” Ibrahim said in a statement Thursday night.
