A McHenry County judge Wednesday granted a default judgment ordering the developer of a stalled 100-unit apartment project in Fox River Grove to pay $145,000 to Ozinga Ready Mix Concrete Inc.

Contractors who began building a 100-unit Fox River Grove apartment complex in 2019, which has been stalled since last spring, said they are owed millions of dollars by the projects developer.

The contractor that built the concrete foundation for a new apartment complex in Fox River Grove, whose further construction has been on hold for permitting reasons, accused the developer of never paying them for the work.

Work on an apartment complex in downtown Fox River Grove has stopped with only the concrete frames of the first two floors and the underground parking lot constructed. Thats all the village has approved so far. To take the next step, the village must sign off on the final plans.

A five-story, 100-unit apartment building is under construction in downtown Fox River Grove as part of a larger plan to develop the area with more residents, businesses and maybe a hotel.
