Country Club Hills — Ch. 19 Fair Housing § 19.11.03
Additional Remedies
Operative Text
This ordinance shall not prevent the City of Country Club Hills or any person from exercising any right or seeking any remedy to which that person might otherwise be entitled, or from filing any complaint with any other agency or court of law or equity.
Section 19.11.03 of Country Club Hills Chapter 19 Fair Housing establishes that the remedies and complaint processes available under this ordinance are not exclusive. A person or the City itself may still pursue any other legal rights, remedies, or claims that exist independently of this ordinance. Filing a complaint under this fair housing provision does not foreclose filing additional complaints with other agencies or courts.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 19.11.03, property owners and managers should be aware that a fair housing complaint filed under this ordinance does not limit the range of legal actions that may follow. A compliant operator generally maintains thorough records of all housing-related decisions and communications, recognizing that the same conduct could be subject to review by multiple agencies or courts simultaneously. The existence of this provision signals that exposure under Country Club Hills Ch. 19 may run in parallel with federal, state, or other local fair housing frameworks.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 19.11.03 makes clear that using the Country Club Hills fair housing complaint process does not give up any other rights or remedies a tenant may have under other laws. Tenants may simultaneously or separately file complaints with other agencies—such as state civil rights bodies or federal agencies—or pursue claims in a court of law or equity. Tenant-rights organizations can help identify the full range of complaint avenues that may be available alongside a Ch. 19 § 19.11.03 action.
