Adopted
Operative Text
The minimum regulations and standards governing the conditions and maintenance of all buildings, structures and premises, which are essential to ensure that all properties are safe, sanitary and fit for human occupation and use, and the condemnation and demolition of buildings and structures unfit for human occupation, as set forth in the 2018 International Property Maintenance Code, first printing, as promulgated and published by the International Code Council, Inc., with deletions, additions and modifications set forth in this article, shall be and are adopted as if fully set out in this article, and made applicable to all existing or future buildings, structures and premises within the corporate limits of the village. State Law reference-- Adoption by reference, 65 ILCS 5/1-3-1 et seq., 50 ILCS 220/1 et seq.
Libertyville Ch. 6 Art. IV § 6-341 formally adopts the 2018 International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC), first printing, as the governing standard for all buildings, structures, and premises within village limits. The adoption includes local deletions, additions, and modifications specified elsewhere in Article IV, meaning the IPMC does not apply in its unaltered form. The code sets minimum conditions for safety, sanitation, and habitability, and also establishes grounds for condemning or demolishing structures deemed unfit for human occupation.

Under Libertyville Ch. 6 Art. IV § 6-341, property owners and managers are expected to maintain all buildings, structures, and premises in compliance with the 2018 IPMC as locally modified by Article IV. Compliant operators generally conduct routine inspections to confirm that conditions meet the minimum safety, sanitation, and habitability standards the code establishes. Staying current with any local modifications or additions to the base IPMC is an important part of ongoing property management in Libertyville.

Libertyville Ch. 6 Art. IV § 6-341 establishes minimum habitability and safety standards that apply to all residential premises within the village, giving tenants a baseline of protections tied to the 2018 IPMC as locally modified. If conditions in a rental unit appear to fall below those standards — such as issues affecting safety or sanitation — tenants may have grounds to raise a code violation through the village's code enforcement process. Tenant-rights organizations and legal aid resources can help individuals understand how this provision interacts with other local and state protections.
