Does this law apply to “small” landlords?
Chicago recently amended its recycling ordinance, effective January 1, 2018, to fill in the gap between the City of Chicago’s “Blue Cart” recycling and the recycling for private multi-unit residential properties (big condos and rental units of 5 or more units). The law includes a provision calling for “tenant education” in the form of informational flyers. While the law APPEARS to be targeted toward those units that are 5 or more, there’s nothing in the law that “exempts” smaller buildings. That leads to a question as to whether or not small building owners need to comply with the tenant education section of the law.
