A Forest Hills homeowners group has filed a motion for a preliminary injunction against the operators of Forest Hills Stadium due to the “harms caused” by the yearly concert series at the stadium.
Forest Hills Garden Corp (FHGC), a homeowners association whose members live by the venue, has filed a motion against West Side Tennis Club (WSTC), which owns the stadium and leases the venue to concert operators. The motion aims to immediately prohibit WSTC from licensing, authorizing, or allowing any concerts to take place at the stadium.
The motion for a preliminary injunction comes in the midst of FHGC’s ongoing court battle with WSTC, where the homeowners association aims to prohibit WSTC from holding any concerts during the school year or on weeknights—as well as any concerts that exceed noise level standards set out in the city’s Noise Code. FHGC is also seeking to prevent WSTC and Tiebreaker Productions, which operates concerts at Forest Hills Stadium, from holding events that place concert-related equipment, materials or operations on private streets, including ticket queues, barricades, ticket booths and security personnel.
