Cal. Civ. Code § 380.619
Revocation/Non-Renewal of Commitments
Operative Text
a)�������� If a Developer does not perform in accordance with the provisions of its Commitment with an Agency, as determined upon review by the Agency, the Agency shall revoke the Commitment before its expiration, or determine not to renew the Commitment.� In determining whether a Developer has adequately performed under its Commitment, the Agency may review, without limitation, the Developer's compliance with Authority requirements for Tenant eligibility, Tenant Contribution, and rent charged for the Units; the compliance of the Project with the Housing Quality Standards; responsiveness to the Agency, including, without limitation, all reporting requirements; the Developer's compliance with the Project's Tenant Selection Plan; and outreach activities conducted by the Developer within and surrounding the area in which the Project is located, where applicable. In the case of long-term financing, if the Developer does not perform in accordance with the requirements of the regulatory agreement with the Agency required under Section 380.608(d), the Agency shall have the right to recapture all or part of the Rental Assistance for the Project if the Developer is unable to correct any material violations of the regulatory agreement within a reasonable period of time.� b)�������� Prior to the revocation or non-renewal, the Agency shall inform the Developer in writing of the reasons for the revocation/non-renewal. The written notification of revocation/non-renewal shall also indicate that the Developer will have 30 days to submit a written appeal to the Agency. The Developer's appeal shall be addressed to the Agency and shall include a written statement of the Developer's position, including, without limitation, responses to any allegations of poor performance, along with all relevant supporting documentation. The Agency shall review and make a final decision as to the revocation/non-renewal of the Commitment within 30 days after receiving the written appeal. c)�������� If the Agency decides to revoke or not renew a Commitment, a final Reconciliation shall be performed and any amount due to the Agency by the Developer shall be paid within 10 days.� If the Developer fails to pay that amount to the Agency, the Agency shall have the right to exercise any remedies available to it at law or in equity to recover the amount from the Developer.
Section 380.619 of 47 Ill. Admin. Code pt. 380 establishes the conditions under which a housing agency may revoke or decline to renew a Developer's Commitment to provide rental assistance. The agency evaluates performance across multiple criteria — including tenant eligibility compliance, rent levels, housing quality standards, and outreach activities — and may act if a Developer falls short. When long-term financing is involved, the agency may also recapture rental assistance funds if material violations of a regulatory agreement are not corrected within a reasonable time. Before any revocation or non-renewal takes effect, the Developer receives written notice and has 30 days to submit a written appeal, after which the agency issues a final decision.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators and developers participating in rental assistance programs under 47 Ill. Admin. Code pt. 380 § 380.619 are generally expected to maintain continuous compliance with their Commitment, including adherence to tenant eligibility rules, approved rent levels, housing quality standards, and all reporting obligations. A compliant operator typically keeps thorough documentation of tenant selection practices, outreach activities, and responses to agency inquiries so that performance can be demonstrated upon review. If a revocation or non-renewal notice is received, the provision provides a structured 30-day window to submit a written appeal with supporting documentation, and operators should be aware that any outstanding financial balances must be settled within 10 days of a final revocation decision.

Section 380.619 of 47 Ill. Admin. Code pt. 380 is designed to protect the integrity of rental assistance programs by holding developers accountable for how they manage tenant eligibility, rent charges, and housing quality. Tenants living in projects covered by these commitments may have an interest in knowing that agencies are authorized to review developer performance and, where necessary, revoke or recapture assistance when violations go uncorrected. Tenants who believe a developer is not complying with tenant eligibility rules, the Tenant Selection Plan, or housing quality standards may consider contacting the relevant Agency directly or reaching out to a local tenant-rights organization for guidance on how concerns can be raised.
