8-19-5: BOND REQUIRED:
No person shall operate a rental referral agency unless such person maintains in full force and effect a bond with sureties licensed by the State of Illinois in the amount of five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) indemnifying any person damaged by a violation of this Article.
8-19-6: INDIVIDUAL COMPLAINTS:
Any customer of the rental referral agency or any resident of Oak Park shall have the right to file a complaint against the licensee with the Administrator of the Community Relations Department or with the Village Law Department. The Community Relations Department shall attempt to conciliate the complaint. In the event the complaint cannot be conciliated by the Department, then the Community Relations Commission shall hold an informal hearing with all the parties upon reasonable notice to resolve the grievance. The failure of the licensee, or its designated representative, to attend said proceedings without cause shall constitute an admission of the truth of the complaint and may be used as such in any proceeding against the licensee pursuant to Section 8-19-7. The complainant or the Village may file a complaint in the Circuit Court for appropriate relief from the alleged violation.
8-19-7: LICENSE REVOCATION:
Upon complaint or upon its own initiative, the Community Relations Department or Law Department may initiate license revocation proceeding with the Community Relations Commission. If the Community Relations Commission finds, by a preponderance of the evidence that a licensee has engaged in a pattern and practice of violating the provisions of this Article, said license shall be revoked, the bond forfeited to the extent necessary to make whole all aggrieved customers and/or residents of Oak Park, and said person shall be subject to the penalties established by Section 1-1-5 of the Oak Park Village Code. The proceedings shall be governed by the rules established in Section 8-1-14 of the Oak Park Village Code.
