South Chicago Heights — Ch. 30 Fair Housing § 30-68
Hearing decision
Operative Text
When all testimony has been taken, the adjudicative agency shall render to the president and board of trustees its decision in a written report with findings of fact that shall be served upon the complainant and the respondent by certified mail within 15 calendar days following the close of the hearing.
Under South Chicago Heights Ch. 30 Fair Housing § 30-68, once a fair housing hearing concludes and all testimony has been received, the adjudicative agency is required to issue a written decision. That decision must include findings of fact and be delivered to both the complainant and the respondent via certified mail. The agency has 15 calendar days from the close of the hearing to complete and serve this written report to the president and board of trustees.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners or managers who are named as respondents in a fair housing proceeding under § 30-68 should be aware that a formal written decision, complete with findings of fact, will be sent to them by certified mail after the hearing closes. Compliant operators generally maintain current mailing addresses on file with relevant agencies to ensure timely receipt of such official correspondence. The 15-calendar-day deadline for issuance means that a decision can arrive relatively quickly after the hearing concludes.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
As a complainant in a fair housing proceeding governed by South Chicago Heights Ch. 30 § 30-68, you have a right to receive the adjudicative agency's written decision, including findings of fact, by certified mail within 15 calendar days of the hearing's close. If you do not receive the decision within that timeframe, contacting the adjudicative agency directly or reaching out to a local tenant-rights organization are among the general paths available to you. Keeping your mailing address current with the agency helps ensure you receive this important correspondence without delay.
