Plain English

Under 765 Ill. Comp. Stat. 750 § 35, the Illinois Rent Control Preemption Act (or the relevant Act under this citation) does not extend its protections or requirements to public housing units assisted under the federal United States Housing Act of 1937. This exclusion covers dwelling units in mixed-finance projects that receive support through a public housing authority's capital, operating, or other funds. However, the exclusion does not apply to the tenant-based Housing Choice Voucher program, meaning voucher holders in private-market units remain within the Act's scope.

For Property Managers

Property owners and managers operating conventional private rental housing should note that 765 Ill. Comp. Stat. 750 § 35 draws a clear line between public housing and privately owned units. Operators who participate in the tenant-based Housing Choice Voucher program—rather than project-based public housing—should be aware that this exclusion does not shield their properties from the Act's reach. Compliant operators generally familiarize themselves with whether their properties receive public housing authority funding, as that determination governs whether the Act applies at all.

General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.

For Tenants

If you live in a public housing unit or a mixed-finance development assisted through a public housing authority's funds, 765 Ill. Comp. Stat. 750 § 35 means the Act covered by this citation does not apply to your tenancy. However, if you hold a tenant-based Housing Choice Voucher and rent a privately owned unit, this exclusion does not apply to you, and the Act's provisions may still be relevant to your situation. Tenants seeking to understand which rules govern their specific housing type may find it helpful to contact a local tenant-rights organization or consult the Illinois Housing Development Authority for guidance.
