was required to have permits, asbestos testing etc. before doing this "work" then people should move aggressively to try and get the license for the contractor revoked. Additionally if that contractor has any licensed engineers that were a part of this their licenses should be challenged as well.

To be on the safe side reputable projects and leaders follow very open and transparent processes around such projects in order to show that there is no graft or corruption going on. But in this case neither the project nor the leaders are reputable.
