Woodridge CHAPTER 9 RESIDENTIAL RENTAL ORDINANCE § 3-9B-10 establishes two notification requirements for single-family rental properties. First, when ownership, management, or another responsible party changes, the owner must notify the Community Development Department in writing and submit an updated license application within seven days—at no additional cost. Second, if a property stops being used as a rental unit, the owner must notify the village in writing within seven days of relinquishing legal control.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 3-9B-10, compliant operators in Woodridge generally maintain current records with the Community Development Department by submitting written notice and an updated single-family rental dwelling license application within seven days whenever a managing agent, owner, or other responsible party changes—no filing fee is required for this update. Similarly, when a property exits rental use entirely, operators provide written notice to the village within seven days of losing or transferring legal control. Keeping a checklist of triggering events—ownership transfers, management changes, and rental cessations—helps ensure these short deadlines are met.

§ 3-9B-10 requires that Woodridge landlords keep the village informed of who is responsible for a single-family rental unit, which means tenants should be able to identify a current, licensed responsible party through the Community Development Department. If a tenant is uncertain who legally manages or owns their unit—particularly after a sale or management change—the village's licensing records may provide clarity. Tenants who believe these notification requirements have not been followed may contact the Woodridge Community Development Department or consult a local tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options.
