Hanover Park — Ch. 82 Rental Residential Housing Code § 82-13
Owner violations
Operative Text
The following shall constitute violations of this chapter: (1) Failure of the owner of a rental residential building to license such building with the code official. (2) Failure of the owner of a rental residential building to vacate all tenants from said building within 45 days after the license has been revoked unless the rental was of a shorter period than 45 days or a short term rental prohibited by this chapter, in which case the owner shall require vacation within ten days or immediately if a prohibited short term rental. (3) Failure of the owner of the rental property to maintain the structure and premises in compliance with applicable building, property maintenance and zoning ordinances in this Code. (4) Failure of the owner of the rental property to pay any adjudicated fine or penalty owed by said owner to the Village, whether related to the property or not, no later than 35 days following the later of: (i) the date the judgment against the owner becomes final or (ii) the date following the timely exhaustion of a review or appeal. The failure to pay said judgment or judgements within the time provided disqualifies the owner from obtaining or receiving a license under this chapter.
Hanover Park Ch. 82 § 82-13 defines four categories of owner violations under the village's rental housing licensing framework. These include failing to obtain a required license, failing to vacate tenants after a license is revoked within the specified timeframes (45 days generally, 10 days or immediately for prohibited short-term rentals), failing to keep the property in compliance with applicable building and zoning codes, and failing to pay any adjudicated fine or penalty owed to the village within 35 days of a final judgment. An owner who does not pay such a judgment within that window becomes ineligible to obtain or renew a rental license under this chapter.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating rental residential buildings in Hanover Park should be aware that § 82-13 establishes specific conduct that constitutes a violation of Ch. 82. Compliant operators generally maintain a current license with the code official, keep the structure and premises in conformance with applicable building, property maintenance, and zoning ordinances, and satisfy any adjudicated fines or penalties owed to the village within 35 days of a final judgment. When a license is revoked, operators subject to § 82-13 are generally expected to initiate the tenant vacation process within the timeframes the provision specifies, which vary depending on the nature of the rental arrangement.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Tenants living in Hanover Park rental properties have an interest in understanding that § 82-13 of Ch. 82 places affirmative obligations on property owners, including maintaining proper licensure and keeping the premises in compliance with building, property maintenance, and zoning ordinances. If an owner's license is revoked, the provision sets out specific timelines within which the owner must require tenants to vacate, and those timelines differ based on the type of rental. Tenants who believe an owner may be in violation of § 82-13 can consider contacting the Hanover Park code official, consulting a local tenant-rights organization, or exploring whether a violation of this chapter may be relevant to any proceeding involving their tenancy.
