Tinley Park CHAPTER 129F: RESIDENTIAL RENTAL LICENSE § 129F.09
PERIODIC INSPECTION
Operative Text
In addition to the inspection(s) required in § 129F.06 , every residential rental property is further subject to periodic inspection by the village at reasonable times and in a reasonable manner to ensure continuing compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. Whenever it appears by inspection that conditions or practices exist which are in violation of the provisions of this chapter or of any applicable laws and regulations, the village shall serve the owner or operator with notice of such violation, stating what action is required to correct the violation and the time period allowed for correction. Such notice shall state that unless the violations cited are corrected within the time allowed, the residential rental license may be suspended or revoked. (Ord. 2008-O-008, passed 5-6-08; Am. Ord. 2024-O-004, passed 1-16-24)
Under Tinley Park § 129F.09, all residential rental properties are subject to periodic inspections by the village—beyond those already required under § 129F.06—conducted at reasonable times and in a reasonable manner. If an inspection reveals violations of this chapter or other applicable laws, the village must formally notify the property owner or operator, specifying what corrections are needed and the deadline for making them. The notice also warns that failure to correct the cited violations within the allowed timeframe can result in suspension or revocation of the residential rental license.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Compliant operators under Tinley Park § 129F.09 maintain their rental properties in continuous conformance with all applicable laws and regulations so that periodic village inspections do not reveal violations. When a notice of violation is issued, operators generally document the corrective steps taken and complete all required repairs or changes within the timeframe specified in the notice. Keeping detailed maintenance records and responding promptly to any village correspondence helps demonstrate ongoing compliance and reduces the risk of license suspension or revocation.

Tinley Park § 129F.09 establishes that the village actively monitors rental properties through periodic inspections, providing tenants an additional layer of oversight beyond the initial licensing process. If a landlord's rental license is suspended or revoked as a result of violations found during an inspection, tenants may want to understand how that status affects their tenancy and what local remedies may be available. Tenants who believe their unit has conditions that violate applicable laws can contact the village directly to inquire about the inspection process, or reach out to a local tenant-rights organization for general guidance on available options.
