§ 17.

Notice required by Law. The following notice shall be printed verbatim in a clear and conspicuous manner in each lease or rental agreement of a mobile home or lot: "IMPORTANT NOTICE REQUIRED BY LAW: The rules set forth below govern the terms of your lease of occupancy arrangement with this mobile home park. The law requires all of these rules and regulations to be fair and reasonable, and if not, such rules and regulations cannot be enforced against you. As required by law, the park must be licensed to operate a mobile home park either by the State of Illinois Department of Public Health or applicable home rule jurisdiction. Pursuant to the Mobile Home Park Act, this license shall expire April 30 of each year, and a new license shall be issued upon proper application and payment of the annual license fee. You may continue to reside in the park as long as you pay your rent and abide by the rules and regulations of the park. You may only be evicted for non-payment of rent, violation of laws, or for violation of the rules and regulations of the park and the terms of the lease. If this park requires you to deal exclusively with a certain fuel dealer or other merchant for goods or service in connection with the use or occupancy of your mobile home or on your mobile home lot, the price you pay for such goods or services may not be more than the prevailing price in this locality for similar goods and services. You may not be evicted for reporting any violations of law or health and building codes to boards of health, building commissioners, the Office of the Attorney General, or any other appropriate government agency.".
