Le Roy, Ill., Mun. Code ch. 9-8 § 9-8-8
Other Inspections (Le Roy Rental Housing Inspection and Certification Ordinance)
Operative Text
[ 3-4-2024 by Ord. No. 24-03-02-53 ] Nothing in this chapter shall restrict, limit, or alter the City's authority to inspect any property nor impose penalties for violations of the Code.
Section 9-8-8 of Le Roy's Municipal Code makes clear that the inspection and enforcement rules set out in Chapter 9-8 do not reduce or change the City's broader authority to inspect properties or to impose penalties for code violations. In other words, the specific procedures described elsewhere in the chapter coexist with—and do not override—the City's general code-enforcement powers. This provision functions as a savings clause, preserving existing municipal authority intact.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers in Le Roy should be aware that compliance with the specific rental-inspection procedures in Chapter 9-8 does not shield a property from other City inspections authorized under the Municipal Code. Under § 9-8-8, the City retains full authority to inspect and penalize violations independent of any chapter-specific process. Operators who maintain properties in continuous compliance with all applicable code provisions are generally best positioned when any type of City inspection occurs.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 9-8-8 confirms that the City of Le Roy holds inspection and enforcement powers that go beyond the specific procedures outlined in Chapter 9-8, meaning tenants are not limited to only those remedies or processes described in that chapter when code violations exist. If a tenant believes a property has code violations, they may consider contacting the City's code-enforcement office to request an inspection under the City's broader authority. Tenant-rights organizations can help explain how these overlapping inspection powers may be relevant to a particular housing situation.
