Peoria Heights § 9-8A-10 establishes a schedule of fees that the Village charges landlords for registering and inspecting residential rental units. Registration fees vary by building size—$100 per unit for smaller properties and $25 per unit for buildings with more than four units—while inspection and re-inspection appointments carry their own per-unit charges. Landlords who miss payment deadlines face an immediate 10% penalty on the overdue amount, plus 2% monthly interest until the balance is paid.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 9-8A-10, compliant operators budget for and submit the applicable registration fee ($100 per unit for smaller buildings; $25 per unit for buildings with more than four units), the $75-per-unit inspection fee, and any $50-per-unit second re-inspection fee before their respective due dates. Paying on time is important because § 9-8A-10 imposes a 10% late penalty on any unpaid balance, followed by 2% monthly interest, which can compound quickly on multi-unit properties. Keeping clear payment records and tracking due dates for each registered unit helps operators avoid delinquency charges under this article.

Section § 9-8A-10 is primarily a fee schedule directed at landlords, but it is relevant to tenants because it reflects the Village of Peoria Heights' requirement that rental units be registered and inspected. If a tenant has reason to believe their unit has not been properly registered or inspected as required by this article, they may contact the Village directly to inquire about compliance status. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Peoria Heights ordinances can help residents understand how the registration and inspection framework under § 9-8A-10 may relate to habitability or other tenant protections.
