Chicago Ridge — Ch. 14 Art. III Rental Units and Dwellings § 14-81
Reinspection after correction of violation
Operative Text
If at the end of the time the village has allowed for corrections of any violations cited, the village shall reinspect the multiple dwelling unit and if it is determined that such conditions have not been corrected, the RRA inspector may reissue a request to the administrative adjudication hearing officer to conduct a hearing pursuant to provisions of this code regarding administrative adjudication of nonvehicular regulations violations.
Chicago Ridge § 14-81 establishes a reinspection process for rental properties after a correction period has elapsed. Once the village-granted time for fixing cited violations expires, an RRA inspector returns to the property to verify whether the problems have been resolved. If the violations remain uncorrected, the inspector is authorized to refer the matter to an administrative adjudication hearing officer for a formal hearing under the village's nonvehicular regulations adjudication process.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 14-81, compliant operators treat the village-issued correction deadline as a firm target, completing all cited repairs before the reinspection date. Property managers typically document completed work with photos, receipts, and contractor records so that the RRA inspector can readily confirm corrections during the follow-up visit. Failing to resolve violations by the deadline can trigger a referral to an administrative adjudication hearing officer, escalating the matter beyond a simple inspection notice.

Section 14-81 gives tenants an important assurance: the village does not simply issue a violation notice and walk away, but returns to verify that conditions have actually been fixed. If an RRA inspector finds that problems remain after the correction period, the provision allows the matter to be escalated to a formal administrative adjudication hearing. Tenants who believe violations in their unit have not been corrected may contact the village's inspection or code enforcement office to inquire about reinspection status, or reach out to a local tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options.
