Check out an organization called Keep Chicago Liveable or hire their attorney Shorge Sato.

We have not found a solution yet, but please know you aren't the only one, so even if Airbnb acts like they don't care, they WILL care if it's so many hosts who have to delete their listings, which should help us.
