Palos Hills — Ch. 15.56 Residential Condominium Conversions § 15.56.030
Condominium plat and plan approval—Recording
Operative Text
No condominium plat shall be recorded without the prior approval of the building department and no permits shall be issued for the construction or conversion of the units without approval of the plat and building plans.
Under Palos Hills Chapter 15.56, Section 15.56.030, a condominium plat cannot be officially recorded until the building department has reviewed and approved it. Separately, no construction or conversion permits may be issued for individual units until both the plat and the building plans have received that approval. This creates a sequential approval process that must be completed before any physical work or legal recording can proceed.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and developers pursuing a residential condominium conversion in Palos Hills must secure building department approval of the condominium plat before it can be recorded, as required by § 15.56.030. Compliant operators also ensure that both the plat and building plans are approved before applying for any construction or conversion permits. Maintaining documentation of each approval stage helps demonstrate compliance with this sequential process.
