Bolingbrook — Ch. 26 Housing Standards and Property Maintenance § 26-83
Applicability and jurisdiction
Operative Text
This article applies to foreclosing, foreclosed and vacant property within the village.
Section 26-83 of Bolingbrook's Housing Standards and Property Maintenance Code establishes the scope of Article's reach, limiting it to properties that are in the process of foreclosure, have already been foreclosed upon, or are vacant within the Village of Bolingbrook. The rule sets the jurisdictional boundary so that subsequent provisions in the article apply only to this defined category of properties. Properties that are neither foreclosed nor vacant fall outside the article's coverage.
