    Indicating it is well established that mere contentions, unsupported by reasoned argument and citation, do not merit consideration on appeal

    Accordingly, because we find that neither the Illinois Condominium Act nor the Illinois General Not For Profit Corporation Act specifically prohibits a home rule unit from governing the process by which a unit owner may gain access to a condominium association's financial records, the Ordinance's provisions regarding this subject are valid. Defendants' reliance on City of Oakbrook Terrace v. Suburban Bank Trust Co., 364 Ill. App. 3d 506 (2006), does not convince us otherwise. In Oakbrook Terrace, the court concluded that a city ordinance that provided for a two-year amortization period for existing nonconforming advertising signs was an invalid exercise of home rule authority because it precluded the remedy of just compensation under the Illinois Eminent Domain Act (735 ILCS 5/7-101 (West 1998)).

    [Citation.] Home rule powers should be construed liberally. " City of Oakbrook Terrace v. Suburban Bank & Trust Co. , 364 Ill. App. 3d 506, 514, 301 Ill.Dec. 135, 845 N.E.2d 1000 (2006). ¶ 20 The circuit court here found that Calumet City had the power under article VII, section 6(f) to place a referendum on the ballot, asking the voters whether to limit the mayoral office to persons who had served fewer than four consecutive four-year terms as alderman.

  4. Vill. of N. Pekin v. Adams Outdoor Adver.

    2013 Ill. App. 3d 120249 (Ill. App. Ct. 2013)

    The court found that Ordinance 221 provided amortization as the only remedy available to an owner of an existing, but nonconforming, sign which existed at the time North Pekin enacted Ordinance 221 in 1972. The court also found that Adams' leases to own and operate the sign structures were valid and had not expired as of midnight of April 30, 2004, while recognizing Adam's license permits pertaining to each sign, issued annually by North Pekin, did expire on that date. ¶ 22 Further, the court found the facts in the instant case were consistent with those in the case of City of Oakbrook Terrace v. Suburban Bank and Trust Co., 364 Ill. App. 3d 506 (2006). After applying the case law, the court determined Ordinance 221 violated the mandates of the Eminent Domain Act (735 ILCS 30/1-1-1 et seq. (West 2002)) by allowing the Village to take ownership of the billboards without providing just compensation to the sign owner.

  5. VG Marina Management Corp. v. Wiener

    378 Ill. App. 3d 887 (Ill. App. Ct. 2008)   Cited 10 times
    Holding that a section in a rental agreement that provided "plaintiff may recover attorney fees incurred in enforcing defendant's obligations under the lease agreement only 'as provided by applicable laws and court rules'" did not violate a section of the RLTO that provided "a rental agreement may not provide a tenant agrees to pay attorney fees in connection with a lawsuit"

    Defendant first contends that the trial court erred in granting summary judgment to plaintiff on the issue of attorney fees. As he did at trial, defendant argues that the attorney fees provision contained in paragraph 15(e) of the lease is unenforceable under section 5-12-140(f) of the RLTO. Summary judgment is proper when the pleadings, depositions, and affidavits on file demonstrate that no genuine issue of material fact exists and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. City of Oakbrook Terrace v. Suburban Bank Trust Co., 364 Ill. App. 3d 506, 510 (2006). We review de novo the propriety of an order granting summary judgment.
