What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, if a residential property located in a first class or second
class city is alleged to be a nuisance, the city may apply to the circuit court for the
appointment of a receiver to remove, suspend, or correct the nuisance. Currently, a
receiver appointed by the court may take possession of the property, charge and
collect rents, negotiate contracts regarding the property, pay property taxes, and
abate the nuisance.
This bill allows all cities, villages, and towns, not just first class and second
class cities, to apply to the circuit court for the appointment of a receiver to take
possession of the property and have all of the powers currently available to first class
and second class cities.
