Certificate of Occupancy
All businesses in Villa Park must register with the Village and receive a Certificate of Occupancy.
Also, any existing business where a change has occurred, i.e. ownership change, name change, location change or building owner change, is required to apply for a Certificate of Occupancy.
The forms required to be completed to apply are as follows:
Notice to Applicant
Certificate of Occupancy Application
Certificate of Occupancy Inspection Agreement
Graffiti Removal Waiver and Release signed by the property owner
Application Fees:
| Under 5,000 square feet |
$75.00 |
| 5,000 – 10,000 square feet |
$100.00 |
| Over 10,000 square feet |
$100.00 plus $2.00 per 1,000 sq. ft.
over 10,000 sq. ft. |
Print out the above linked forms. After all the forms have been completed, bring them to the Villa Park Community Development Department, 20 S. Ardmore Avenue, Villa Park, along with the application fee, and the process will begin.
Upon completion of all the required inspections, licensing (if applicable), etc., you will be contacted when your Certificate of Occupancy is ready to be picked up.
