University Park — Part XIV Title Six Housing § 1466-06
Fees
Operative Text
(a) The following fees shall be paid upon application for a certificate of inspection: (1) Single-family dwelling--Two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00); a. Provided, however, that in those instances where the owner/seller of a single-family dwelling certifies to the Village on the application for a point of sale certificate of inspection that the owner/seller has entered, or is about to enter into an agreement to replace his/her existing residence with another principal residence located within the jurisdiction of the Village, the fee to be paid upon application for the certificate of inspection for the single-family dwelling to be sold shall be one hundred dollars ($100.00). (2) Multifamily building--Fifty dollars ($50.00) per unit; and (3) Commercial or industrial building--One dollar ($1.00) per one thousand (1,000) square feet to a maximum of two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00), but not less than a fifty dollar ($50.00) minimum fee. (b) There shall be no fee for the first re-inspection requested by the same owner/seller within one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of application for a certificate of inspection. (c) If any of the original violations remain after the first re-inspection of any dwelling, a fee of fifty dollars ($50.00) will be charged for each subsequent re-inspection.
University Park § 1466-06 establishes the fee schedule that applies when property owners apply for a certificate of inspection at the point of sale. Single-family homes carry a $250 application fee, though a reduced $100 fee applies when the seller is replacing their primary residence with another home within the Village. Multifamily buildings are charged $50 per unit, and commercial or industrial buildings are assessed $1 per 1,000 square feet, subject to a $50 minimum and $250 maximum. The first re-inspection within 180 days of the original application is free, but any subsequent re-inspections needed to address unresolved violations cost $50 each.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under University Park § 1466-06, compliant property owners budget for the applicable certificate of inspection fee before submitting their application — $250 for a single-family home (or $100 if replacing a primary residence within the Village), $50 per unit for multifamily properties, or the square-footage-based rate for commercial and industrial buildings. Operators who address all cited violations before the first re-inspection avoid additional fees, since that initial re-inspection within 180 days carries no charge. Owners who leave original violations unresolved after the first re-inspection should anticipate a $50 fee for each additional inspection visit required to close out the certificate.

University Park § 1466-06 governs the fees a seller must pay to obtain a certificate of inspection, which is a point-of-sale requirement that can affect the timeline of a property transaction. Tenants in multifamily buildings may find it useful to know that the per-unit fee structure means the seller bears inspection costs tied to each unit, and that unresolved violations trigger additional re-inspection fees — creating a financial incentive for sellers to address code issues promptly. Tenants who believe violations in their unit are going unaddressed may wish to contact the Village of University Park directly or consult a local tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options under this provision.
