Lakemoor Ch. 15 Housing Code (§§15.01–15.04) § 15.04
INDEBTEDNESS TO THE VILLAGE
Operative Text
The processing of an application under this chapter shall not commence and no registration shall be approved if the applicant therefore is indebted to the village for any sum or if the applicant is in violation of any village code, regulation or ordinance at the time of application. (Ord. 09-O-14, passed 7-9-2009)
Under Lakemoor Ch. 15 Housing Code (§§15.01–15.04), a rental registration application cannot be processed or approved if the applicant owes any money to the Village of Lakemoor or is currently in violation of any village code, regulation, or ordinance at the time of submission. The rule effectively creates two separate eligibility bars — outstanding financial debt and active code violations — either of which is sufficient to halt the registration process. This provision was adopted by Ord. 09-O-14 on July 9, 2009.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers seeking rental registration under Lakemoor Ch. 15 Housing Code (§§15.01–15.04) generally ensure that all outstanding balances owed to the Village are resolved and that any known code, regulation, or ordinance violations are corrected before submitting an application. Compliant operators typically conduct a review of their accounts and property compliance status in advance of filing to avoid having an application stalled or denied. Maintaining a clear record with the Village on both financial and code-compliance fronts is the standard practice for operators who regularly renew registrations under this chapter.

Tenants living in rental units subject to Lakemoor Ch. 15 Housing Code (§§15.01–15.04) may find it relevant to know whether their landlord's registration was properly approved, since an application cannot move forward if the landlord owed debts to the Village or had active code violations at the time of filing. If a tenant has reason to believe a registration was improperly granted despite such disqualifying conditions, they may consider contacting the Village of Lakemoor directly to inquire about the registration status of their unit. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Illinois municipal housing codes can help tenants understand what options may be available when a landlord's registration is in question under this provision.
