Champaign — Ch. 17 Human Rights § 17-5
Every person subject to this chapter shall post and keep in a conspicuous location, where business or activity is customarily conducted or negotiated, a notice provided by the City, whose form and language shall have been prepared by the Human Rights Officer setting forth excerpts from, or summaries of, the pertinent provisions of this chapter and information pertinent to the filing of a complaint.

Plain English

Champaign Ch. 17 § 17-5 requires anyone covered by the city's Human Rights chapter to display a City-issued notice in a prominent place where they normally conduct or negotiate business. The notice, whose content is prepared by the Human Rights Officer, summarizes key provisions of the chapter and explains how to file a complaint. The rule ensures that the public has visible, accessible information about their rights and the complaint process wherever covered activities take place.

For Property Managers

Under Champaign Ch. 17 § 17-5, property owners and managers who are subject to the Human Rights chapter are expected to obtain the official notice from the City and post it in a conspicuous spot — such as a leasing office or common area where rental activity is conducted or negotiated. Compliant operators keep the notice continuously displayed, not just at move-in or during inspections. The notice itself is prepared by the Human Rights Officer, so landlords should ensure they are using the current City-issued version rather than a self-created substitute.

General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.

For Tenants

Champaign Ch. 17 § 17-5 gives tenants and applicants the right to see a City-issued Human Rights notice posted in any location where rental business is customarily conducted or negotiated. If that notice is absent or not prominently displayed, it may indicate a broader compliance concern worth documenting. Tenants who believe this or other provisions of Ch. 17 have been violated can explore filing a complaint through the City's Human Rights process or consult a local tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options.
