Elgin — Ch. 16.46 Residential Condominium Conversions § 16.46.090
Except where modified or supplemented by this chapter, all provisions contained in the Illinois Condominium Property Act (765 ILCS 605/1 et seq.), as amended, shall apply to properties submitted to the provisions of said Act.
Source: Legislative text reproduced verbatim
Plain English

Section 16.46.090 of Elgin's Residential Condominium Conversions chapter establishes that the Illinois Condominium Property Act (765 ILCS 605/1 et seq.) serves as the baseline legal framework for any property submitted to condominium status in Elgin. Where Elgin's local chapter modifies or supplements that state law, the local rules take precedence; in all other respects, the state Act's full requirements apply. This creates a layered regulatory structure in which both state and local rules govern condominium conversions simultaneously.

For Property Managers

Operators managing or converting residential properties under Elgin Ch. 16.46 generally maintain familiarity with both the Illinois Condominium Property Act (765 ILCS 605/1 et seq.) and Elgin's local chapter, since § 16.46.090 makes the state Act the default standard. Compliant operators typically review the local chapter first to identify any modifications or supplements, then apply the remaining state Act provisions to fill any gaps. Keeping current with amendments to the Illinois Condominium Property Act is also part of ongoing compliance, since the provision incorporates the Act "as amended."

For Tenants

Under § 16.46.090, residents in a converted condominium property in Elgin are protected by the full body of rights established in the Illinois Condominium Property Act (765 ILCS 605/1 et seq.), except where Elgin's local chapter has modified or supplemented those rights. This means tenants and unit owners may look to both state law and local Elgin rules when evaluating their protections during or after a conversion. Those seeking to understand how these overlapping rules apply to their situation may find it useful to consult the Elgin city code, the Illinois Condominium Property Act directly, or a tenant-rights organization familiar with Illinois condominium law.
