Under Oakbrook Terrace Ch. 121 § 121.07, when a rental dwelling license application is submitted, the city is required to keep all related records — including application documents, inspection reports, and any license issuance or denial decisions — on file with the Director of Community and Economic Development. This provision establishes a formal recordkeeping obligation on the part of the municipality, ensuring that a documented history of each application exists.
