Woodridge CHAPTER 9 RESIDENTIAL RENTAL ORDINANCE § 3-9A-4
LICENSE TERM
Operative Text
Each license granted hereunder shall be an annual license, the term of which shall commence on January 1 of a given year and shall terminate on December 31 of the same year. (Ord. 2012-42, 7-26-2012)
Under Woodridge CHAPTER 9 RESIDENTIAL RENTAL ORDINANCE § 3-9A-4, residential rental licenses issued by the Village of Woodridge operate on a fixed annual cycle, running from January 1 through December 31 of each calendar year. The provision establishes a uniform term for all such licenses rather than allowing rolling or multi-year terms. This means every licensed rental property in the jurisdiction shares the same license period, regardless of when the license was first obtained.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 3-9A-4, compliant rental property operators in Woodridge maintain awareness that their residential rental license expires on December 31 of each year and must be renewed for the following calendar year. Operators generally track this fixed annual deadline and initiate the renewal process well before year-end to avoid any lapse in licensure. Keeping records of each year's license issuance and expiration helps demonstrate continuous compliance with the ordinance.

Woodridge CHAPTER 9 RESIDENTIAL RENTAL ORDINANCE § 3-9A-4 establishes that a landlord's rental license covers only the calendar year in which it was issued, expiring each December 31. Tenants who have questions about whether their rental unit is currently licensed for a given year may inquire with the Village of Woodridge directly or consult a local tenant-rights organization for guidance. If a unit appears to be operating without a valid license under this provision, that fact may be relevant to raising a compliance concern through available municipal channels.
