Highland Park’s Proposed Rental Registration Program

highparkThe Lake County Property Investors Association has issued a release to its members indicating that the City of Highland Park is considering a “rental registration” program.  They indicate that there is not yet a written ordinance but that the program envisioned would include annual registration of all rental properties (whether multi-unit or single family) and might also include governmental inspections of those rental properties.  The Chicago Tribune has also reported on the proposed ordinance.

The Illinois Rental Property Owners Association is opposing this proposed licensing law.
