Highland Park — Title XVII Ch. 174 Property Maintenance and Housing Code § 174.203
A Boarding/Lodging House may be operated only pursuant to Chapter 150 of the City Code.
Source: Legislative text reproduced verbatim
Plain English

Section 174.203 of Highland Park's Property Maintenance and Housing Code establishes that a Boarding or Lodging House is not a freely permitted use — it may only be operated when it complies with the requirements set out in Chapter 150 of the City Code. This provision effectively ties the lawful operation of such facilities to a separate, specific chapter of local law. Any Boarding or Lodging House operating outside the framework of Chapter 150 would be operating in violation of § 174.203.

For Property Managers

Operators of Boarding or Lodging Houses in Highland Park must ensure their facility is authorized and operated in full conformance with Chapter 150 of the City Code, as required by § 174.203. Compliant operators typically obtain any licenses, permits, or approvals that Chapter 150 specifies before accepting residents. Maintaining ongoing compliance with Chapter 150 is what keeps a Boarding or Lodging House lawfully operating under this provision.

For Tenants

Section 174.203 means that any Boarding or Lodging House where you reside is only lawful if it is being operated in accordance with Chapter 150 of the Highland Park City Code. If a facility appears to be operating without the required authorization under Chapter 150, that may constitute a code violation that can be reported to the appropriate Highland Park municipal authority. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Highland Park housing law can help explain what Chapter 150 requires and what options may be available to residents of such facilities.
