Country Club Hills — Ch. 19 Fair Housing § 19.9.02
Creation of the Fair Housing Review Board
Operative Text
There is hereby created the Fair Housing Review Board, which shall consist of the City Council sitting as a adjudicatory body, with the Mayor presiding.
Section 19.9.02 of Country Club Hills' Fair Housing ordinance formally establishes the Fair Housing Review Board as the adjudicatory body responsible for hearing fair housing matters in the city. Rather than creating a separate independent board, the provision designates the City Council itself to serve in this role, with the Mayor presiding over proceedings. This structure means that elected officials, rather than appointed commissioners, are the decision-makers when fair housing disputes are brought before the Board.
