Mundelein — Ch. 16.44 Rental Housing Properties § 16.44.090
Owner responsibility
Operative Text
(a) The owner of a residential rental property shall maintain a record for each dwelling unit with the full legal names and date of birth (D.O.B) of every tenant in each dwelling unit. (b) The owner or property agent of a residential rental property shall provide each tenant with the name and telephone number of a responsible person who, in emergency situations, will be available on a twenty-four-hour basis and who has the authority to make repairs as needed.
Under Mundelein Ch. 16.44 § 16.44.090, residential rental property owners are required to keep a record for each dwelling unit that includes the full legal name and date of birth of every tenant living there. Additionally, owners or their property agents must give each tenant contact information — specifically a name and phone number — for a responsible person who is reachable around the clock in emergencies and who has the authority to authorize or carry out repairs. These two requirements establish baseline recordkeeping and emergency-contact standards for rental housing in Mundelein.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 16.44.090, compliant residential rental property operators in Mundelein generally maintain an up-to-date file for each dwelling unit containing the full legal name and date of birth of every tenant. They also ensure that each tenant receives written or verbal notice of a designated responsible contact person's name and phone number — someone available 24 hours a day for emergencies and empowered to approve or make repairs. Operators typically update these records and contact disclosures whenever tenancy changes occur, such as when new tenants move in or a property management contact changes.

Section 16.44.090 of Mundelein's Rental Housing Properties chapter gives tenants the right to receive the name and direct phone number of a responsible person who can be reached at any hour for emergencies and who has authority to arrange repairs. If a landlord or property agent has not provided this contact information, tenants may wish to make a written request to document the gap. Tenants who believe this provision is being violated can contact the Village of Mundelein's relevant code enforcement or housing authority, or reach out to a local tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options.
