MCCARONS RATS ACCUSED OF VIOLATING FEDERAL
RACKETEERING AND ANTITRUST LAWS
"BEHIND THE SCENES THE UNION OFFICIALS OFFERED TO DROP THEIR ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGE IF THE ICON CO,AGREED TO HIRE ONLY UNIONIZED CONSTRUCTION WORKERS"
Developer accuses two construction unions of engaging in racketeering and extortion
A Los
Angeles real estate developer has filed a lawsuit accusing two labor
unions of violating federal racketeering and antitrust laws as they
attempted to block the approval of a mixed-use complex in the San
Fernando Valley.
The Icon Co., which is seeking to build a
$150-million project in Panorama City, said in its lawsuit that the
Southwest Regional Council of Carpenters and Local 300 of the Laborers
International Union of North America engaged in predatory and
extortionist conduct as they filed environmental challenges over the
development.
In the months leading up to a City Council vote, the
two unions warned that the project would have negative effects on
traffic, air quality and other issues. Yet behind the scenes, union
officials offered to drop their environmental challenge if the Icon Co.
agreed to hire only unionized construction workers, the developer’s
lawsuit states.
The company refused to sign, in part out of a concern over the increased cost, said Karl Tilleman, an attorney for Icon.

“The union defendants’ sole purpose in filing [environmental]
challenges was to delay the project and coerce, intimidate and pressure
Icon to agree to use exclusively union labor, otherwise Icon would
suffer significant cost increases to the project,” said the lawsuit,
which was filed Wednesday.
