Cal. Civ. Code § 380.402
Eligibility
Operative Text
LAAs may be local governmental bodies, including Municipalities, counties, and townships in unincorporated areas of the State; local housing authorities organized under the Illinois Housing Authorities Act [310 ILCS 10]; or non-profit organizations registered and in good standing with the Illinois Secretary of State and the Illinois Attorney General.
Section 380.402 of 47 Ill. Admin. Code pt. 380 defines which types of organizations qualify as Local Administering Agencies (LAAs) under Illinois housing regulations. Eligible entities fall into three categories: local governmental bodies such as municipalities, counties, and townships in unincorporated areas; local housing authorities formed under the Illinois Housing Authorities Act; and non-profit organizations that are registered and in good standing with both the Illinois Secretary of State and the Illinois Attorney General. This provision sets the threshold eligibility criteria that an organization must meet before it can serve in an LAA capacity under the program.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers who interact with Local Administering Agencies should be aware that, under § 380.402, not every organization can serve as an LAA — only those that meet specific eligibility criteria established by Illinois administrative code. Compliant operators generally verify that any LAA they work with is either a qualifying governmental body, a recognized housing authority, or a non-profit in good standing with the relevant state offices. Understanding which entities are authorized to act as LAAs can help property owners confirm they are engaging with a legitimately designated program administrator.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Tenants seeking assistance through programs administered by Local Administering Agencies should know that § 380.402 limits which organizations are authorized to serve in that role. If a non-profit organization is acting as an LAA, it must be registered and in good standing with both the Illinois Secretary of State and the Illinois Attorney General, which are publicly verifiable statuses. Tenants who have questions about whether a particular organization is a qualified LAA may consult a tenant-rights organization or contact the relevant Illinois state offices for verification.
