Prestige Feed Products, which has been engaged in a legal battle with the village of Mount Prospect for more than year stemming from odor complaints from neighbors, plans to move its operation within six months.
The announcement was made in an email to neighbors of the animal feed plant from Mount Prospect Village Manager Michael Cassady.
Residential neighbors of the plant in both Mount Prospect and Des Plaines have complained of a “burnt cheese” smell emanating from the plant during operational hours. Those complaints spawned protests outside the plant by neighbors and ultimately a lawsuit.
There’s no word yet where Prestige is planning to relocate.
This is a developing story and will be updated as more details become available.
