In addition to the requirements of subsection (A), the developer shall* make the disclosure summary available with marketing materials and distribute it at open houses and any showings; (ii) furnish the disclosure summary to a prospective buyer before the execution of any contract for the initial sale of a residential condominium unit; and (iii) keep a receipt signed by each purchaser acknowledging that the person entering a contract to purchase has received and has had an opportunity to review the condominium disclosure summary.
* Editor's note– As set forth in Coun. J. 5-4-11, p. 118299, § 3. Intended text is probably: "...the developer shall: (i) make...." Future legislation will correct the provision if needed.
(C) The board of managers shall keep a copy of the latest property report and condominium disclosure summary, if applicable, for seven years following the date of their initial distribution. Upon reasonable notice the property report shall be made available for inspection by any prospective purchaser of a unit from a unit owner.
(Prior code § 100.2-5; Amend Coun. J. 5-4-11, p. 118299, § 3)
A developer undertaking renovation of a building containing five or more dwelling units in anticipation of or in connection with a condominium conversion shall, in addition to all other work, perform work so that all existing and newly created parking spaces are either EVSE-ready spaces or EVSE-installed spaces, as those terms are defined in the Chicago Zoning Ordinance. Provided, however, nothing in this section shall be construed to require creation of EVSE-ready spaces or EVSE-installed spaces if the only feasible way to create such spaces would necessitate excavation of an existing surface lot or other parking facility to install the necessary conduit and wiring.
(Added Coun. J. 9-14-12, p. 2842, § 1)
