If a tenant has reason to believe their unit has not been properly inspected or that a license was issued despite code violations, they may raise that concern with the village or a local tenant-rights organization familiar with Dolton's ordinances. Tenants can also reference the Housing Code provisions at §§ 151.115–151.125 when seeking information about the specific standards their rental unit is expected to meet.
