Stickney — Ch. 19 Condominium Conversions § 19-18
Application of state law
Operative Text
Except where modified or supplemented by this section, all provisions contained in the Illinois Condominium Act, as amended, shall apply to properties submitted to the provisions of said act.
Section 19-18 of Stickney's condominium conversion chapter establishes that the Illinois Condominium Act serves as the baseline legal framework for any property submitted to its provisions. Local rules in Chapter 19 may modify or supplement that state law, but where the local code is silent, the state act governs. This layered structure means both state and local requirements can apply simultaneously to a given conversion.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators managing or converting properties subject to condominium status in Stickney must be familiar with both the Illinois Condominium Act and the local modifications found in Chapter 19, § 19-18. Compliant operators generally review the full Chapter 19 framework first to identify where local rules diverge from or add to state requirements, then apply state law to fill any remaining gaps. Keeping current with amendments to the Illinois Condominium Act is also part of ongoing compliance, since those changes flow through automatically under this provision.

Under § 19-18, tenants in buildings undergoing or subject to condominium conversion in Stickney benefit from the protections of both the Illinois Condominium Act and any additional or modified rules in Chapter 19. If a landlord or converter appears to be violating either layer of these requirements, tenants can document the issue and explore options such as contacting local municipal offices or a tenant-rights organization familiar with Illinois condominium conversion law. Understanding which set of rules applies — state, local, or both — is an important first step when evaluating any concern under this provision.
