Urbana — Ch. 12.5 Landlord-Tenant Relationships § 12.5-36

Upon completion of a rental property's inspection, the property shall be classified by the building official according to the classification system set forth herein. Property will be considered for reclassification at each subsequent inspection. However, an inspection shall not be deemed necessary for designation as Class F in subsection (e). (a)
Class A. Building has no violations of applicable city codes. Building inspected as lower priority on regular cycle thereafter.
(b) Class B. Building has violations of applicable city codes and the violations do notpose an immediate threat of danger to the life, health and safety of the occupants of the building. Building inspected on regular cycle thereafter.
(c) Class C. Building has violations of applicable city codes that are in excess of ten (10) in number and/or that affect the overall livability of the building, but do not pose a threat of danger to the life, health or safety of the occupants of the building. Building may be inspected as frequently as every year thereafter.
(d) Class D. Building has violations and is either unsafe, contains unsafe equipment, is unfit for human occupancy or is unlawful. Pursuant to the property maintenance code, the building official may disallow occupancy of all or a portion of the building until code violations are corrected. The building official may inspect the property on a regular basis to verify that it remains in compliance with city codes.
(e) Class F. Building is not in compliance with the rental registration program and may not be occupied for rental. Violations leading to Class F designations are violations which:
(1) Render the unit unsuitable for habitation according to the city's health, life, safety and/or property maintenance codes after notification and reasonable opportunity to remedy such violations;
(2) [Exhibit] repeated and willful violation of the city's zoning code, including, but not limited to, occupancy requirements; or
(3) [Arise from] use of the unit for a criminal purpose, as demonstrated by adjudication of the owner or a tenant for the manufacture, distribution or sale of drugs as set forth and defined by the Illinois Criminal Code.
The Class F designation shall be withdrawn when the underlying violation has been remedied, or in the case of subsection (3), there has been a change of ownership in the unit, the subject tenant has been evicted, and/or the owner has taken appropriate steps to prevent the unit from constituting a continuing threat to the public.
(f) Class N. New construction within the past twenty-four (24) months. First inspection will occur on the next inspection cycle as lowest priority.
