Chicago Ridge — Ch. 14 Art. III Rental Units and Dwellings § 14-82
Suspension of license; appeal
Operative Text
Any person whose license to operate a multiple dwelling, common areas or rental dwelling unit has been recommended for suspension, shall be entitled to an appeal to the village president and board of trustees. Any written request for appeal shall be filed with the president and board of trustees within 15 days following the issuance of the notice of suspension.
Chicago Ridge § 14-82 establishes a formal appeal process for operators whose license to run a multiple dwelling, common area, or rental dwelling unit has been recommended for suspension. Rather than making a suspension final without recourse, the rule gives the affected license holder the right to contest the recommendation before the village president and board of trustees. The appeal window is time-limited: a written request must reach the president and board of trustees within 15 days of the suspension notice being issued.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Chicago Ridge § 14-82, operators who receive a notice that their rental dwelling or multiple dwelling license has been recommended for suspension have a narrow 15-day window to file a written appeal with the village president and board of trustees. Compliant operators typically track the date on the suspension notice carefully and submit a written appeal request well before that deadline expires. Keeping copies of all correspondence with the village and documenting the date of submission are practices commonly associated with preserving appeal rights under this provision.

Tenants living in an affected property may want to monitor the status of any license suspension proceedings, since the outcome can affect the legal standing of their rental unit.
