All West Chicago homeowners that currently use their home, or are intending to use their home, as a short-term home rental, such as an Airbnb or Vrbo, are required to register their home as a short-term home rental with the City of West Chicago and obtain a license for the rental.
The West Chicago City Council approved Ordinance 2021-O-0002 on March 15, 2021 which authorizes the city to regulate these types of rentals including requiring registration and licensing.
The registration form can be found at westchicago.org.
Proof of ownership in the form of a deed must accompany the registration form.
