DPH Properties LLC, 747 Aurora Ave. in Aurora, filed a lawsuit challenging the city’s rental property licensing ordinance.

An Aurora apartment complex owner is suing the city of Aurora, claiming its process of inspecting apartments is unconstitutional.

The attorney for DPH, Matthew Robinson, of Geneva, said the city of Aurora “is fining landlords just based on if a tenant asserts their constitutional rights.” The city is represented by attorneys Anthony Becknek, Jason Guisinger and Colleen M. Shannon, of Chicago-based Klein, Thorpe & Jenkins, Ltd. He said the city put as part of the licensing ordinance a lease addendum that tenants sign which allows inspections.One of the things the plaintiffs suing the city are relying on is what they consider a precedent, a court-ordered consent decree from a lawsuit filed against the city of Zion, a city in the north suburbs of Chicago near the border with Wisconsin.
