Designation of manager/agent
Operative Text
No operating license shall be issued or renewed if the property owner is not a resident of the County of Kankakee, unless the legal owner of record designates, in writing to the village, the name of a Village of Aroma Park or County of Kankakee resident, 18 years or older, as their designated manager/agent for the receipt of service of "notice of violation" pursuant to the provisions this Code and for service of process pursuant to this Code. Service of notice or process pursuant to this chapter shall be upon either the legal owner of record or the designated manager/agent.
Aroma Park § 7-71 establishes that a rental property operating license cannot be issued or renewed to an out-of-county owner unless that owner formally designates a local representative — someone who lives in the Village of Aroma Park or Kankakee County and is at least 18 years old — to receive official notices and legal process on the owner's behalf. The designation must be made in writing to the village. Once a manager or agent is named, the village may serve notices or legal process on either the owner of record or the designated representative.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Aroma Park § 7-71, property owners who reside outside Kankakee County are generally expected to submit a written designation to the village identifying a local manager or agent before an operating license is issued or renewed. The designated individual must be a resident of the Village of Aroma Park or Kankakee County and at least 18 years of age. Operators who maintain an up-to-date written designation on file with the village help ensure that notice of violation and service of process can be properly received without interrupting licensure.

Aroma Park § 7-71 means that tenants and village officials have a reliable local point of contact for serving notices and legal process when a rental property's owner lives outside Kankakee County. If a tenant needs to pursue a complaint or enforcement action, the village's records should identify either the owner of record or a locally designated manager/agent who can be served. Tenants who are unsure whether a valid designation is on file may inquire with the Village of Aroma Park directly or consult a tenant-rights organization familiar with Kankakee County housing regulations.
