Country Club Hills — Ch. 19 Fair Housing § 19.8.04
Duration of Plan
Operative Text
An Affirmative Marketing Plan shall expire one year after the date on which the City Council grants written approval of the plan pursuant to Section 19.8.03 . Prior to such expiration, the owner shall prepare and file a revised Affirmative Marketing Plan with the Mayor and Community Relations Director pursuant to Section 19.8.02 , and the City Council shall thereupon review the plan pursuant to Section 19.8.03 . No advertising, sale or rental of dwellings in developments subject to this Article may be commenced or continued except in accordance with an unexpired Affirmative Marketing Plan for which the City Council has granted written approval pursuant to Section 19.8.03 .
Under Country Club Hills Ch. 19 Fair Housing § 19.8.04, an Affirmative Marketing Plan approved by the City Council is valid for one year from the date of written approval. Before that year is up, the owner must submit a revised plan for renewed City Council review. No advertising, selling, or renting of dwellings in covered developments may begin or continue unless a currently valid, City Council–approved Affirmative Marketing Plan is in place.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Country Club Hills Ch. 19 Fair Housing § 19.8.04 places the renewal burden squarely on property owners: a compliant operator tracks the one-year expiration date of their approved Affirmative Marketing Plan and submits a revised plan to the Mayor and Community Relations Director before that date arrives. Operators generally ensure City Council written approval is secured before the prior plan lapses, because all advertising, sales, and rental activity must be covered by an unexpired, approved plan at all times. Letting a plan expire without renewal means covered marketing and leasing activity cannot lawfully continue under this provision.

Section 19.8.04 of Country Club Hills Ch. 19 Fair Housing gives tenants and prospective residents a basis to inquire whether a development's Affirmative Marketing Plan is current and carries valid City Council written approval. If advertising or rental activity appears to be occurring without an unexpired approved plan, that may constitute a violation of this provision that can be raised with the City or the Community Relations Director. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with local fair housing rules can help individuals understand what options may be available when a covered development appears out of compliance with § 19.8.04.
