Glenwood — Ch. 26 Art. XI Landlords § 26-816
Village reports to landlords
Operative Text
On an annual basis, or more often, if needed, the village's police department shall give notice to the landlord of all criminal charges made against the landlord's tenant(s) and the status of the prosecution of the charges to the extend known. The notice shall not include: (1) Any charges pertaining to domestic or sexual violence; (2) Any charges related to any disability; (3) Any charges against a minor; (4) Any charges or information deemed to be inappropriate; or (5) Any information that could interfere with an investigation, prosecution or the safety of village personnel.
Under Glenwood Ch. 26 Art. XI § 26-816, the village's police department is required to notify landlords at least once a year—and more frequently if circumstances warrant—about criminal charges filed against their tenants and the known status of those prosecutions. However, the provision carves out several categories of information that must never be shared, including charges related to domestic or sexual violence, disability-related charges, charges against minors, information deemed inappropriate, and anything that could compromise an investigation, prosecution, or the safety of village personnel. The rule establishes a structured information-sharing channel between local law enforcement and property owners while building in explicit protections for sensitive categories of tenant information.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers covered by Glenwood Ch. 26 Art. XI § 26-816 can generally expect to receive periodic notices from the village police department summarizing criminal charges filed against tenants and the known prosecution status of those charges. Compliant operators treat this information as subject to applicable privacy and fair-housing obligations and are mindful that the notices are explicitly incomplete—several protected categories of charges are withheld by law. Operators familiar with this provision typically maintain records of notices received and apply consistent, lawful policies when acting on any information provided.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Under Glenwood Ch. 26 Art. XI § 26-816, tenants should be aware that the village police department shares certain criminal charge information with their landlord on at least an annual basis. Importantly, the provision prohibits disclosure of charges related to domestic or sexual violence, disability, or charges against minors, as well as other sensitive categories—meaning not all charge information reaches a landlord. Tenants who believe information was shared improperly, or who have concerns about how a landlord may be using such notices, may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or seek guidance from a local legal aid office about available options.
