Plain English

Carpentersville § 5.36.090 establishes that residential rental property licenses must be renewed on an annual basis before they expire. If a renewal application is submitted after the expiration date, the applicant is subject to a late fee set out in the village's fee schedule under Chapter 20.02. The rule places the renewal responsibility squarely on the property owner or their designated agent.

For Property Managers

Under § 5.36.090, compliant rental property operators track their license expiration dates and submit renewal applications before those dates arrive each year. Operators who manage multiple properties generally maintain a calendar or reminder system to ensure no license lapses. A late submission triggers additional fees as defined in Chapter 20.02, § 20.02.010, which can be avoided entirely through timely filing.

For Tenants

Section § 5.36.090 requires that the owner or agent of your rental property hold a current, annually renewed residential rental license. If a property is operating on an expired license, that may constitute a code compliance issue that tenants can raise with Carpentersville's local licensing or code enforcement office. Tenants who believe their landlord is out of compliance with this provision may also consult a local tenant-rights organization to understand what options are generally available.
