Chicago Ridge — Ch. 14 Art. III Rental Units and Dwellings § 14-78
Renewal
Operative Text
No RRA license shall be renewed unless an application has been made within 60 days prior to the expiration of the present license.
Section 14-78 of Chicago Ridge's Ch. 14 Art. III establishes a timing requirement for renewing Rental Registration and Approval (RRA) licenses: a renewal application must be submitted within the 60-day window before the current license expires. If an application is not filed during that window, the existing license cannot be renewed. This rule is designed to ensure that rental unit licensing remains current and that operators do not let their authorization lapse unintentionally.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 14-78, compliant rental property operators in Chicago Ridge track their RRA license expiration dates and submit renewal applications no later than 60 days before those dates. Maintaining a calendar reminder or administrative system that flags the renewal window well in advance is a common practice among operators who stay in good standing. Allowing the window to pass without filing means the license cannot be renewed, which may require pursuing a new license rather than a renewal.

Section 14-78 requires that landlords in Chicago Ridge hold a current, properly renewed RRA license for rental units. Tenants who have reason to believe their landlord's license has lapsed—because the renewal window was missed—may wish to inquire with the village about the property's licensing status. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Chicago Ridge regulations can help residents understand what options may be available when a rental unit is operating without a valid license.
